Surf Inn, Gualala (CA) - Deals & Reviews

The breakfast was fantastic, and the staff were extremely friendly and informative, making our stay more enjoyable.

The shower handle was difficult to turn, which initially caused some concern, and the water pressure in the bathroom sink was surprisingly strong.

The rooms were tidy with a fantastic ocean view. Breakfast options could be better. We enjoyed hiking the nearby trails.

We faced challenges with the air conditioning and heating system, which took time to figure out. The kitchen lacked basic dishes and utensils, making it inconvenient for us to prepare meals. Additionally, we found the bathroom incredibly dated, which detracted from the overall ambiance of our room.

This place is clean and everything works well. I loved the ocean view room and friendly service. The beds were super comfy. It’s within walking distance to local shops and trails. I especially enjoyed the fire pit outside! 🌊

It is a charming inn with large windows facing the ocean and a lovely outdoor seating area for cozy gatherings and a fire pit.

I really enjoyed my stay with my family in the spacious room that had a kitchen and cozy beds. Loved chilling by the fire pit in the evening and taking walks on the nearby trails. The only downside was that the breakfast options could be a bit better, so maybe grab a bite elsewhere too! 😊

However, the cleanliness wasn't the best, I noticed a few hairs on the toilet seat and stains on the surfaces. The shower handle was tough to twist, requiring some extra muscle, and the overall room size felt a bit cramped, with inadequate lighting and limited places to plug in devices. Plus, the thin walls let in noise from neighboring rooms, which could be bothersome.

Chur, the room was tidy as and had a fab ocean view, but the breakfast could do with a better spread. Still, comfy beds made it all sweet as!

What a delightful little escape! The cozy rooms offer stunning ocean views, and the convenient bluff trail beckons for walks with furry friends. Breakfast at Trinks Cafe, just a short stroll away, is a must. Also, the fire pit and outdoor seating provide perfect spots to unwind while soaking in the beauty of the coastline. Can't wait to return!

Stayed in a double room with two double beds. The view was amazing! Huge window facing the ocean and the bluff trail was right outside. Room had a cozy vibe with a nice kitchen area. But had a bit of a cleanliness issue—the carpet felt dirty, and the bed linens could’ve used a refresh. The kitchen was unexpected and had all the basics you’d need. Definitely more room if you're traveling with dogs. Just a heads up about the noise from neighbors. walls felt thin. Still, great spot overall!

This was just a suitable option for a city holiday in Gualala with attractive and competitive value for money. The homemade breakfast buffet saved us a ton on meals, and my kids loved trying all the different options each morning. Check out the local market nearby for fresh produce and snacks.

This place was ideal for a romance! The receptionist was super helpful, gave us the lowdown on trails and parks nearby we wouldn’t have found otherwise! Watching a seal hunt for its dinner from the oceanfront deck was just magic, also we found an amazing BBQ place close by that was just perfect for late night munchies.

It wasn’t exactly a steal! but it was worth it.
