The room was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. We had a room at the corner of the building about three quarters up the hill from the highway. We had an awesome view of the bay from the back and side windows. The larger than most pools and being T-shaped, was across the walkway with a spa. The pool area was older but pretty comfortable and lead to showers and a sauna plus a gym that was usable. The WiFi worked well for us and the grounds were quite nice. The restaurant/market/deli was across the street and gave us some cardio before and after breakfast. Overall, I would give our stay 4.5 stars. We came up to Bodega Bay for a wedding and this was the perfect place.
Great location, and had a great view of the bay. I only gave it 4 stars because of an incident with the couch bed. We were with 3 people and upon arrival the couch bed was still in a couch. Called front desk and mentioned that. They told me the linens were in the drawer to make up the couch bed and that I should have requested to have it made into a bed upon arrival. You would think you made reservations for three and since there was only a main bed with the couch bed it would have been made up. Everything else was nice.

This was perfect for my daughter and myself.
I loved the outside patio and views!
Next time I might request a 2nd story room for even better views. We loved the location and since this was a memorial trip to the coast for my late husband we were able to go to the beach easily from here.
Great place! Beautiful view! The champagne I ordered was delivered promptly to my room. The pool and hot tub were both clean and lovely. All around A+.
The Bay View Restaurant which is on the property was excellent! Service was 5 Star and the food was presented and tasted so amazing that we went back the second night!
This is a lovely property, very clean and everyone was very friendly. A frustration was I paid for three people and the room was only supplied for two. I needed to ask for an extra cup, glass, coffee and towels. They brought everything but the coffee, which I had to go and get myself. Sems like a top rated hotel would pay attention to these details. Also, the pillows were thin and uncomfortable, but the bed was good.

Love everything except the constant fog horn keeping us up at night, but that’s not the property’s fault. It was a comfortable and beautiful stay otherwise!
