    We had a really nice stay at the Oceanfront Inn in Shelter Cove. the correspondence with the staff was pleasant and they set clear expectations for our visit. Our deluxe king room with a gas fireplace and balcony was exactly as expected. the hotel is located in a remote area close to the ocean cliff, office building, and Post Office - it truly felt like a seaside retreat.

    The hotel was charming and had airy rooms. The restaurant offered excellent authentic Thai food, and I tried some hot dishes. The staff was attentive and caring. The location was stunning, with Abalone Point relatively close by. Everything was simply great.

    The Oceanfront Inn is a beautiful hotel with huge rooms and exceptional views of the ocean. The beds are very comfy, and the rooms come with a balcony and gas-powered fireplace. The location is marvelous and awesome, very close to the beach and a 10-minute walk from Shelter Cove Marina. Additionally, it's situated right next door to Northern California's rugged coastline and offers views of the ocean, tidepools, and seal rock.

    It was a great base for our trip. The location is stunning, so close to four mountains, eating establishments, and the coast of a Wilderness area. The room was airy and reasonably large, with a lovely balcony and private patio. The microwave oven, tea/coffee making equipment, and fridge worked well. We had a very nice experience.

    As close to the beach as it gets, with a practically on top of the ocean location. Spacious and clean rooms with an amazing view from the balcony. Convenient amenities including a full kitchen, microwave, and fridge. Within walking distance of tide pools and other natural attractions.

    Nothing, all great.

    We had a very nice stay on our long road trip. The staff were very helpful and attentive, and the hostess was great. The inn is in a wonderful setting near hiking trails, nestled in a lovely building next to a mountain and the Fish Tank coffee shop.

    Great oceanfront location with a rocky beach just steps away. Perfect for my dog to watch sea lions and for me to relax with a book. The room was clean, cozy, and recently painted. The nearby walks and untouched wilderness were stunning and the lost coast trail was right there. The hosts were friendly and even invited me to share a meal. Worth the price.

    Misleading information regarding the lack of on-site restaurant and hot tub. Staff unavailable after 5pm and communication had to be through the exterior mailbox.

    The room and bathroom were spacious and included a relaxing Jacuzzi. The inn offered clean central heating, a multi-channel TV, and a convenient microwave. The location on the Avenue of Giants provided breathtaking ocean views right from the inn.
