The San Luis Bay Inn Resort is located across the road from Avila Beach, 10 miles from San Luis Obispo, and way up the Coast from LA to San Francisco. It is a glimpse of the life style that the California Coast its famous for. The San Luis Bay Inn at Avila Beach Resort is A sacred place of serenity and warm sunshine in Chumash Indian lore Minutes from a natural hot spring spa Adjacent to a world class golf course Steps from hiking trails in sycamore and eucalyptus groves One mile from an historic old wooden wharf with end of the world view restaurant and local seal colony The Resort Concierge offers local wine tours, trips to Hearst Castle, farmers markets and seasonal fairs in the 5 beach cities, and local cultural attractions. A self-guided tour through the area could turn up a visit with a beach full of elephant seals near Hearst Castle, a hike along the headlands of the cataclysmic rock formations of Montana de Oro, watching the sunset over the Pacific below, or taking in the Avila Beach Blues Festival or the Strawberry Festival in charming Arroyo Grande where City Hall steps are home to the towns free range chickens and Doc Bursteins famous ice cream for the children. Joan and I have used, repeatedly rented and exchanged our many timeshare weeks on the water at Avila Beach since 9-11. We have adored our repeat renters, some of them authors, celebrities, and high powered executives. It has been a fun hobby. Having so many of them has allowed us to exchange equally with places in Hawaii, Mexico, Europe, Vancouver, New York, the Sundance Film Festival, and others (not without effort and planning). We have really enjoyed the net annual cost per night of travel as hotel rooms around us have been approaching $700/night for just sleeping, while our slightly rising maintenance costs are still below $250/night for the largest rooms which include full kitchens and the further ability to stretch vacation dollars by eating in. While nightly expense has edged up and all the real estate in Avila has held and increased in value, the secondary market for timeshares has retreated from when we began to accumulate. (if you are a film lover ask me how to do Sundance cheaply) We believe this is because the primary market approach is through crush-selling techniques which eventually give most folks a used-car taste for time shares in general. A lot of folks know someone who has paid through the nose for a timeshare that couldnt be used enough or gotten rid of. This is not that. This is the back door secondary market of a usable and valuable week. Avila Beach is an exception because the coastal commission wont let developers build more timeshares here and the upscale area keeps rising and attracting good people.
