Our Mission

MISSION

Cambria Beach Lodge is based upon an interpretation of the classic California road trip experience. Through a combination of surf, wheels, and timber, the California Central Coast is perhaps one of the most beautiful edges of water in the world. Fueled by our belief to wander, dream, and explore, we believe that Cambria, California is one of the last great undiscovered California coastal destinations. Based upon it’s prior existence as a California boomtown, we believe the town needs to continue to be explored. This time we prefer to explore it for wine tasting, whale watching, antiques and point breaks. With 6,000 residents, Cambria is one of the last untouched beach towns in California. We intend to do everything we can to keep it this way.  

Cambria Beach Lodge is a roadside hotel reimagined – just with surf, wine, and one of the most beautiful sunsets you have ever seen.
