Gualala Surf Inn on the Ocean Bluff

Great location in a beautiful country, views are amazing!

Nice property. Very chill environment. I had the beach view room which was great to wake up to and hear the waves crashing in the middle of the night. Very friendly staff, shout outs to jade for being so kind and sweet. Definitely will be going back in the near future.

Corner king suite was amazing— clean, spacious, charmingly decorated, fantastic view of Gualala and ocean beyond. Innkeeper Jade very pleasant and accommodating. Best stay we’ve ever had. Low price for such luxury. Were able to walk the Gualala Bluff Trail which runs through the property with our walkers. Good continental breakfast.

We had a really great stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it! First of all, the staff were absolutely amazing, super friendly, welcoming, and always helpful, which made the whole experience feel very comfortable and enjoyable. We stayed in an oceanview room, and it was incredibly spacious. The view was honestly stunning. Breakfast was fairly simple, but the grab-and-go setup was actually very convenient, especially on days when we had plans and needed something quick before heading out. Overall, everything from the service to the room and the view exceeded our expectations. Would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting, and we would happily stay here again!

the staff was friendly and welcoming , the views are great for sunset - breakfast was perfect and coffee is always ready.

Lovely place usually but had a bad experience that should be reviewed . I went to fill ice bucket, left lid in room, and after filling and replacing lid, realized the inside of the lid was covered in dried vomit. Almost did not see it… brushed that off and then found a crusty spot of bodily fluid on the sofa. Initially when reported the response made me feel like I was complaining to get an upgrade. The rooms they offered were a downgrade to a smaller room. They did end up putting me in a room w view but I had no kitchenette and had planned to eat in. I ended up getting very ill for 3 days, beginning the morning of my departure, with a very bad stomach virus, without holding fluids or able to eat for 2days, and took 2 days off of work. I’ve stayed here many times and do think it can be great but also pretty sure why I got so sick. Lovely views.

The room was very tight for two people. We are two small people and we could not pass by each other between the foot of the bed and the console. Also the walls are very, very thin. That said, the staff was very nice, the location on the bluff is good, and the view from the outdoor area is lovely.

Super noisy bathroom exhaust and heating fan in the room. Bed is too high. Lack of basic supply such as tooth brush. No place to sit for breakfast.
