Inn at Moonlight Beach

The Inn at Moonlight Beach is a conscious boutique destination in Encinitas, California, founded by Harvard-trained architect and designer Shangwen Chiu Kennedy with a mission to create regenerative and life-giving human environments that help guests restore and reconnect with themselves. Acquired and completely reinvented in 2017, the Inn was intentionally designed with human well-being at its core, incorporating thoughtful materials, natural light, intentional spaces, and a strong connection to nature. More than a place to stay, the Inn aims to provide an experience that encourages presence, joy, genuine connection, and a renewed sense of well-being, while collaborating with local wellness practitioners, farmers, artisans, and sustainable businesses to create a restorative and community-centered destination.
