My wife and I recently stayed for several nights at this lovely hotel in Morro Bay. The room (the Embarcadero) was spacious and well appointed, the bed comfy and with two decks (one facing the Embarcadero, the other with a view of Morro Rock) we had a very nice stay. Anderson Inn is very conveniently located and there are many nice choices of restaurants near by (within easy walking distance).
Estero Inn of Morro Bay is close to Hearst Castle, Fishing, Golf, Hiking, Horseback Riding, Kayak Rentals, Paddle Boarding, Whale Watching & restaurants. Trails lead past Monterey cypresses, which grow naturally only here and in Pebble Beach. The park's 250 species of birds and mammals include black-tailed deer, gray foxes, sea otters, and sea lions.
Cruise the Bay or the Boardwalk with the NEW Estero Adventures! Estero Adventures is a one stop for active adventurers offering a large selection of outdoor activities including electric pontoon boats, kayaks, standup paddleboards, and fat-tire beach bike rentals. Perfect for making memories and going on adventures, Estero Adventures is conveniently located along the Embarcadero inside the Estero Inn.
Loved our stay in the Portside Room of the Anderson Inn. Spacious room, beautiful balcony overlooking Morro Bay and Morro Rock. Also a pair of comfortable chairs inside overlooking the water if you prefer. Large bathroom with whirlpool tub and separate multi jet shower. Complimentary robes. Gas fireplace.

This is a very small boutique hotel with only 8 rooms. We stayed in the Portview room. The room is huge. The view is fantastic. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We appreciated the towel that was formed into a Christmas tree on the bed. It was complete with colorful led lights. The room was spotless. It was well worth the premium for the bay view and larger size.

I rate the Anderson Inn five stars because of: its great location in Morro Bay directly on the water and in the midst of it all on the Embarcadero, the clean and tastefully decorated rooms, the large bathroom, the view from the "private" outdoor space and the friendly folks who run the place. Things that could be improved: 1. the addition of blackout curtains that would make for a better sleep by keeping out both the bright lights from next door and the morning light as it comes up; 2. (it's possible that I missed this but...) the ability to turn off the "beeper" on

Our second stay was nothing like the first. I believe there are about 8 rooms and only six parking spots and no location for unloading luggage. It took about 20 minutes to get lucky and get a spot. The driftwood room has a closely shared balcony with another room and doesn't really feel private. The heater is grossly underpowered and poorly located, it took three hours to warm the room to 70 for bedtime. The showers will set the fire alarm off on these smaller rooms as well. The sound proofing is not comparable to the more expensive rooms either, my daughter heard a beeping all night

This place scammed my wife and her friends, stay away!! It's already overpriced for what you get, and they have a wannabe manager snooping and checking on your business. They had 3 people celebrating a birthday and Were charged a $200 cleanup fee for no real reason. They said they had to clean up a few balloons and confetti. The fake manager named Lindsey kept "checking in" and invading their privacy for no reason. This hotel is under new ownership recently, and has really gone downhill. STAY AWAY unless you want extra cleaning charges and rude customer service!!!!!

The room we stayed at was absolutely beautiful. Room 203. We've stayed in Morro Bay for years and I am so happy for the complete remodel of the rooms. First class accommodations! The only downside was the seals out on the dock directly in front of the inn. They were loud all day and night! You certainly couldn't leave a window open! Other than that a perfect experience!

We go down to the Coast a few times a year. When we stay in Morro Bay we always stay at the Estero Inn. This year, we decided last minute and there were no vacancies. They suggested their sister property, Anderson Inn. We were reluctant but decided to go for it. Boy were we glad we did!! This place is FABULOUS!!! It's newly remodeled -- the owner decorated it herself and she has great taste!! It looks more like the inside of a home than a hotel room. She didn't miss a single detail. We were right on the water staring at Morro Rock. Super comfy bed, chairs inside AND outside

We enjoyed our single night here. The room was superb. My wife was very pleased and the view of the Rock is so cool. Each room has their own balcony and a great view of Morro Rock. The front desk called when our room was ready (at like 2pm). But we were a couple hours away doing touristy stuff. Just the thoughtfulness to call and let you know if such a nice touch.
The hotel is small, as are most businesses on the ocean front. But attaches is The Galley, which Cindy, got us a reservation at with zero effort and frustration. They too, CALLED ME, when our table was ready. So cool. The

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary for the first time and absolutely loved it! The owners are incredibly nice and made us feel so welcomed! The rooms are nice and in a great location being in walking distance to everything! Loved it here so much that we already booked a room to return again next year for our anniversary!

We go away every year for our anniversary. We have gone to Morro Bay a number of times but this time we chose The Anderson Inn and we could not have been happier, in fact, we were ready to move in!!! This quaint, 8-unit inn is run by Molly, Jeff and Roger Anderson, they are in their 60's/70's and took over the inn after their mom and dad stepped down. We met all three of the siblings and they were all so friendly and accommodating which made our stay that much more personable. Each time we saw one of them on our way out or coming back to our room, they said hi to us using our names

We decided on a weekend getaway to Morro Bay, booked a room at the Anderson Inn. We could of not of been more pleased with how the Anderson's treated us during our stay. The family truly goes above and beyond to make you feel welcomed and your stay pleasurable. Our room, had two balconies, one overlooking Embarcadero , the other had a Bay view. The room was spacious, clean and welcoming. We parked the car and never moved it until we checked out. Everything is within walking distance, Morro Rock is a little over a mile away, and you have plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from

This little b&b is awesome. It is owner by a family. We have stayed here once and just recently called to make reservations. They remembered us. I love the personal treatment. They have rooms over the water on the bay. You can sit on the balconies and watch the sea otters and other sea life. So relaxing.
When we originally stayed here we were passing by. The owner took us upstairs and let us check out the room with him before we rented the room for 3 nights.
Can't wait to go back in September!!!!!!!!

Wonderful family-run inn with nice amenities and a million-dollar view. We had room 203 facing the Rock with a side picture window overlooking the harbor. The room has high ceilings, air conditioning, a ceiling fan and very comfortable furnishing. The best way to spend a late afternoon would be to get take-out from Giovanni's (one block to the left) and a bottle of Chardonnay or port from Chateau Margene (one block to the right) to read or watch sunset from the balcony.

Mollie and Jeff Anderson were the sweetest! They found out about our engagement and couldn't be more excited for us! True hospitality you can't find anymore these days!

First off the Anderson's are in amazing family everything that has been said is spot on their hospitality is great! The only reason for the four stars in all honesty is that we would've preferred a king size bed instead of the queen and they're sitting chairs may need a little update. Otherwise if we were to be back in the area would happily stay there

Words can't do this justice. Molly and Jeff Anderson are just beyond compare for their hospitality. The location of the Inn is bar none for Morro Bay, otters and seals play within normal eye site. And if you can spurge for a room over the water, you will never want to do anything less, sitting on the balcony watching otters feast on the local bivalve molluscs is a special treat, which is a daily occurrence and there are binoculars should they be a bit off in the distance.
Jeff and Molly!! Can't wait to see you lovely folks again and enjoy your property!!!

The ANDERSON HOTEL in Morrow Bay is by far the best place to stay in Morrow Bay and surrounding areas. My booking was professionally and most graciously scheduled by Jeff and my room on the water was heavenly. So comfortable. So clean. So spacious.
Be sure to stop in THE GALLEY BAR AND GRILL which is their premiere restaurant downstairs. The seafood and wine are hard to beat.
Highly recommended. The ANDERSON INN is for sure the go-to place in Morrow Bay is you want a place that feels so good, it feels like home.
Thank You Jeff!

The service is incredible!
This is a charmingly small inn with phenomenal customer service. We purchased a gift certificate for a Premium room. The cost was approximately $420 with tax. To accomplish this we worked with Mollie at Anderson Inn. This isn't some big chain, this is a family run operation. So you work directly with the owner.
Mollie was so helpful and friendly. She made everything happen quickly and was just a nice person. We also spoke with Jeff, who is fantastic too. What a wonderful team.
