This past weekend we had the opportunity to spend a couple of days up the coast in the Ventura /Santa Barbara area and we had such a great time. The wonderful people at Country Inn and Suites by Carlson invited us to stay at the Country Inn and Suites Port Hueneme and we couldn’t have stayed at a better place. Our stay was incredible.

We were greeted with a friendly smile and fresh chocolate chip cookies. The kids were in heaven!!
We headed up to our spacious room. We had a suite which featured a separate living area room with a pull out bed, a kitchen area and a fireplace. The kids immediately claimed the whole room. I don’t know what it is about kiddos but it seems every kid I know loves to stay at hotel rooms. We were also greeted with a fun welcome gift basket, filled with plenty of goodies.

What I love about Country Inn and Suites is that they cater to families. Every morning you can head down to the breakfast area and take in a delicious and hot breakfast buffet and it’s included with your stay. The hotel also features a complimentary evening reception with free drinks and snacks. This can mean huge savings for a family. There is also a Read it and Return library which allows the kiddos to check out books during your stay.

I almost forgot to mention that our hotel was only about a block and a half away from the beach. Point Hueneme State Beach is a really nice beach that was practically empty. If you like nice, clean and uncrowded beaches this is the place for you.

We loved our stay at the Country Inn and Suites Port Hueneme and I can’t wait to head back!
