Seven keys and a 21-and-over house rule
Two Palms Motel has opened at 20 S. Ocean Ave. in Cayucos, California, with seven rooms. The property states on its own site that it is exclusively a 21+ property.
The rule covers the whole building. The Tribune describes the seven rooms as micro lodging for guests 21 and up.
Ryan and Marisa Fortini own the motel. They bought the 1952 building in 2023.
Hotel Online carried The Tribune's account on 14 October 2026.
The booking channel the property runs
Bookings run through twopalmsmotel.com. The site carries a BOOK NOW path on the homepage and on each room page.
Fortini told The Tribune he points guests to the property site for room selection. The listed telephone number is (805) 995-9800 and the listed email address is hello@twopalmsmotel.com.
Two Palms operates as an independent property.
What seven rooms carry per key
Every room has a private outdoor patio, a stocked minibar, a refrigerator and upgraded lighting. The site names Parachute linen and Fablerune bath products.
The grounds hold a fire pit, a ping-pong table, EV chargers and complimentary beach towels and ice. A morning coffee and tea service runs alongside a paid drinks offer.
Three layouts cover the seven keys: The Suite, The King and The King (ADA). The Suite adds a private deck and a fireplace.
The two-property footprint
The Fortinis bought the Pacific Motel in 2019 and redid it in 2022. It sits at 399 S. Ocean Ave., three-tenths of a mile from Two Palms.
Fortini told The Tribune the couple has no plan to build a chain.
