What a View!

What a view! This hotel is not new and not perfect in terms of decor, but the price was great and the proximity to the water and the views were amazing. The cafe has really good food as well.

5-star experience in a 3.5-star property

Shelter Cove is an absolute GEM, WAY off the beaten path. The hotel is in a prime location with beautiful views and direct access to black sands beaches, tide pools and even a lighthouse! The hotel is still being renovated, so it's not perfect. But the staff is helpful and the location is wonderful.

View!

The view was amazing, just by the sea. I really enjoyed hearing the sea when going to bed. Neighbourhood calm and quiet. We booked an apartment for our one night stay w the family. Appreciated the contactless check in as we were running late and checked in late. It was smooth! I am a wheelchair user and I knew our place not to be completely ADA but hotels.com did state that the apartment was on the bottom floor, this was not the case when we arrived. I emailed the hotel a few days before our arrival w questions like this but they didn’t respond. No batteries for the fireplace. The beds where clean but other places - drawers in the bathroom were full of hairs, dusty furniture.
Anna, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Horrible view

We booked a panoramic oceanview room and got a room that had a view of a dead tree and bushes and a patio with chairs and BBQ. We also choose to pay at hotel and they charged our card the day before arrival.

Seals on Rocks.

Great views of the beach. Really comfortable beds. Great shower. Parking was easy. Great little place for breakfast in the morning. The seals on the rock beach were a bonus!

Great seaside hotel

We used this hotel for the starting and stoping point of our 26-mile hike on the Lost Coast. It was a wonderfully charming spot with amazing views. The rooms were lean and well supplied, and the process was managed very well. We also had breakfast at the cafe after our hike, and we loved the food, coffee, and the service. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Stay

Oceanfront Inn at Shelter Cove was the perfect place for us to stay in Shelter Cove. While the outside is unassuming, the inside was very nice and larger than expected with first rate ocean views. Convienent location with a cafe on the ground level that puts you within walking distance to the golf course and brewery. Would defenitly recomment.

Shelter Cove ocean view room

Drive to shelter Cove was brutal. Location of hotel was good but the description of the room was inaccurate. Panoramic view was parking lot, front lawn and large pine tree. Ocean view was seen when standing in a certain spot in the room and observing a small wedge of ocean. The room was clean and comfortable but overall disappointing.

Wow! I loved it here with ocean view!!! Comfy bed and very clean! We highly recommend to bring your own food because there aren’t that many choices, and there is no grocery store! But with the ocean and deer everywhere, it makes up for it! Service was fabulous!!!
Rhonda, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful coastline. Dated hotel but exquisite access to views and beach. The self checkin is a bit of an issue as not all the codes are getting sent with the welcome emails. But the staff are friendly and the food otoios in the community, including the coffee shop, are excellent. But ultimately it’s all about the unparalleled scenery!
Frazor, 1-night trip

Great place on the shore. Be prepared for a bit of a trek to get there with limited restaurant options. Worth the drive for the setting.
