The hype
Guests love the tropical grounds and pool area but consistently note the rooms feel tired and worn.
Humphrey's Half Moon Inn
$150-250/ 박
다음의 경우 예약하세요 You want a tropical 'Hawaii-lite' escape with a killer on-site concert venue and marina views.
사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- Lush, jungle-like grounds that feel like a Polynesian hideaway
- Direct access to Humphrey's Concerts by the Bay (watch from your balcony if lucky)
- Walkable waterfront path along Shelter Island
한눈에 보기: A charmingly dated tiki time capsule where the concert lineup matters more than the threadbare carpets.
@wine.and.dine.with.irene님의 리뷰: We booked this for our anniversary and NYE, and it was magic. The suite had a killer view of the marina, and the food was honestly some of the best we've had. It’s rare to find a spot that feels this fancy but is still so fun for our boys.

Reality check
The 'Garden View' often means 'Palm Tree & Bird Poop View' with little privacy on ground floors.
- You have tickets to a show at Humphrey's Concerts by the Bay
- You love a retro, kitschy tiki vibe over modern minimalism
- You want a resort feel without the mega-resort price tag
청결 & 유지관리
7.8
- Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Some guests report missed days or having to request service multiple times.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean surfaces, but expect older grout, chipped tubs, and low water pressure.
- Maintenance: The property is showing its age. Peeling paint and worn carpets are common complaints.
- Linens & towels: Functional but not luxurious. Towels can feel a bit scratchy and thin.
- Odors & scents: Older rooms often have a lingering musty or damp smell due to the marina location.

자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the large outdoor pool is heated and open year-round.
Can I see the concerts from my room?

Is breakfast included?
No, breakfast is à la carte at Humphrey's SoCAL Dining, though some packages include it.
How far is the beach?
There is no swimming beach on property (it's a marina). Ocean Beach is about a 10-15 minute drive.
Is it walkable to downtown?
No, Shelter Island is isolated. You need a car or Uber to get to Gaslamp or Old Town (approx. 15-20 mins).
Are there fridges in the rooms?
Yes, all rooms have microwaves and mini-fridges.
내부자 팁
- ✨
Walk 5 minutes to Bali Hai for their famous (and lethal) Mai Tais — stronger than anything at the hotel bar.
- ✨
The 'Half Moon Pass' includes 1-hour bike rentals; use them to ride the flat, scenic path along Shelter Island.
- ✨
If you don't have concert tickets, you can often rent a kayak or dinghy to listen from the water in the marina.
