Discover Your Perfect Getaway at Dolphin Cove Motel

our story

Since our incDolphin Cove Motel “On The Beach”, originally the Sea Wall Motel, was built in 1938. Dolphin Cove Motel is the first motel ever in Pismo Beach and one of the first five ever in the world. Dolphin Cove Motel has premier real estate on the seawall, with access to miles of beach, just steps away from the pier, and many amenities to choose  from downtown. Dolphin Cove Motel has nostalgia. We had a guest tell us that his grandparents brought him here when he was 10 years old, and he is now in his eighties. Many celebrities have stayed with us through the years. The most famous is Bug Bunny, who was here in 1957, when he took a wrong turn in Albuquerque and ended up in Pismo Beach. The Sea Wall Motel used the slogan “Where Main Street Meets The Pacific”. We like that! Come on by and check it out for yourself!
