The location and the outside ambience is great - loved the closeness to the beach. However was not happy with the rooms. there are several buildings on the property. WE parked where we wer told, but found it difficult to find the building we were staying in. The room condition is very old, and could definitely use an update. There is also no AC or fan. So when we arrived the room was hot and stuffy. We needed to open windows to get air into the room. there was no tv - but we knew that upfront so that was ok. There is also no phones in the rooms - so to contact the front desk, I had to use a phone in hte hallway.

Great stay at an old YWCA camp. I only wish that they would have complimentary coffee and that the dining hall would be less expensive.

The beds, bathroom and floors were clean, and water pressure was good; however, the cobwebs and spiders clearly had not been taken care of recently. And the bathtub has mold and just cleaning the surface isn't good enough. This should be cleaned out and re-grouted at the very least. Clearly there is water getting behind the walls to cause this mold and this should be mitigated before it gets worse and causes more structural damages to the structure or gets people sick. Thanks,

This spot is beyond amazing. Tucked away in the dunes with a woodsy area. The beach is a 5 minute walk from the room. The hotel grounds are large and beautiful. The weather was lovely while staying there as well. The hotel was like you were almost camping. My partner and I came out for a weekender get away to unplug and relax & boy was this the perfect spot to come to for that. The whole way home all we talked about together is how we wanted to come right back and that we cannot wait to plan our next trip. The staff was kind and there are so many amenities (just minus TVs ;p).

I really enjoyed staying here. It has gorgeous views and the employees are very nice and attentive. If you need to get around the grounds, they provide transportation via golf carts that come in very handy.
The inside of the hotel rooms need upgrades desperately. The rooms do not have phones, TVs, or mini refrigerators. The wifi is very slow in the Windward area so you better hope you have good reception in case you need to call the concierge.

We had to change rooms because the first one we were assigned was in rough shape. In both rooms, all the furniture, carpet, appliances, everything looks like it hasnt been updated since the early '90s. The first room had ants and a terrible smell. The second room had a heater that wouldnt turn off, no matter what we did with the thermostat. Water pressure was good though, and there was only a small amount of mildew in the bathrooms. The walls are thin, so we could hear our neighbors and people outside. The plumbing also made a lot of noise.
Outside of the room, the grounds are fantastic. There was a deer outside our window in the morning. The walk to the beach was great. The fire pit was awesome.

The location is great and staff is friendly and courteous. We had 2 rooms at Tree Top and water was running very slow.

The property grounds were beautiful but the room that we were given was so old, falling apart, and looked like it had not been renovated since the 1980's. There was no TV, no fridge, no microwave, and no in-room safe.

Whilst I can appreciate the history of this place, it certainly didn't make up for the poor standard of accommodation. We are a family of five and whilst there was plenty of room for us, the room was dated, the plumbing very poor, the furniture and carpets very tatty, dimly lit and it was absolutely filthy! Being in such a beautiful part of nature, I can understand the lack of a television in the room but there was no hairdryer, phone or coffee machine. Touches that make a hotel stay comfortable, were almost completely absent. I did manage to get hold of a hairdryer and a coffee machine, by asking at reception. The lady on reception wasn't particularly helpful or welcoming though. The location of the property was brilliant and we we explored the coastline of Monterey and Carmel from here and could walk to the beach. This property was designed, historically, to be a YWCA. Only book if you are prepared for a hostel experience. They are charging hotel prices (we paid over $200 per night) for what is essentially still a hostel. Such a shame as the place has the potential to be so much more. There is a pool and games room but we didnt want to spend much time here and so I can't comment on those aspects.

Asilomar is a magnificent eelcoming place to stay near gorgeous beaches and staye parks and reserves. The history of being founded in the early 20th century as a YWCA, the first women's campgrounds adds to the pleasure of pur stay. The opposite of a generic, commercial enterprse. I loved it and will return again!

Unfriendly customer service initially. Rooms weren’t ready until 5:15pm. Toilet didn’t flush, sink had a drip, pillows were horrible, hair on the bathroom floor, run down, could hear everything in the room upstairs and next to us- no insulation.
Would never use this place again, nor recommend it.

Pros: clean, lots of beds, large room with high ceilings, deck/balcony, pool, large window/sliding door, vintage/MCM vibe.
Cons: tub wouldn't drain and maintenence never came, zero TVs, zero AC, heat wouldn't turn off, half-size pillows, saggy mattress, smelled like a nursing home and old furniture.

Not a great experience at all. My "room" was about 8'x10' in size (really!) and did not have A/C, a TV, a coffee maker, and didn't have one hanger in the closet. It was old & outdated and had an odor to match. The room (and halls leading to) were dark & depressing with old lighting. The windows had to be kept open for ventilation. Fire pits nearby filled the room with smoke (didnt discover this until coming back from dinner the first night). All of my clothes smelled of campfire the rest of the trip. Two exterior garbage cans at my building remained overfull all five days of my stay. Paying over $250 a night was the real insult. This room is a $59 a-night room. There are several buildings on the grounds, maybe I got the worst. Do your homework not to get stuck in one of these "classic" rooms if you need to stay here. I'm afraid I won't be back.
