Great location walkable to restaurants and markets. Excellent morning coffee to take and watch the sunrise over the ocean.

Needs a sign out front versus the side of the building.

"Beautiful ocean views, clean, comfortable place to stay!!"

10.0

The views of the ocean and trail along the ocean cliff side were amazing!! Multi level deck with fire ring, bbq, table n chairs.+ Dani was so helpful and sweet. I really enjoyed talking to her and appreciate her assistance. Easy access to ice, laundry.

My room was close quarters as far as getting into fridge , coffee maker but it really wasn’t a big deal.

"Lovely birthday trip at Gualala Inn"

9.0

Lovely stay at Gualala Surf Inn. I went for a quick overnighter for my birthday celebration and wanted something not too far away from the Bay Area and near the ocean. Gualala Surf Inn was the perfect respite away. Plenty of parking, near restaurants and grocery shopping. The room was a nice size, very clean, with a comfortable bed, a hot shower, and very cozy. There is even an electric fireplace for cooler days/nights. Check-in was smooth, and the owner is so nice and personable, with great recommendations for the area. We had a nice time chatting. The ocean view was gorgeous, with plenty of outdoor seating to just stare at it. There is even a short, easy trail you can walk, which was a lovely way to begin the morning. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay again.

Nothing that I can think of.
