Amazing location and service. Clean and well maintained. But an older motel still. Would come again. Walking distance to everything in town!

We had an awesome time staying at the Surf Inn! Staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations on dining options. It was a great home base to do exploring of the surrounding area. The Gualala Regional Park is only a few minutes away and there's a nice little bluff trail from the property. Gualala is a beautiful friendly town and would highly recommend stopping by and not just a drive through town. We'll definitely be coming back to the Surf Inn!

Loved our stay! The proprietor was so helpful and kind and our room was perfect, with a view of the ocean. Lots of good food nearby and walks along the beach and bluff. Can’t wait to return!

Second time staying at this property. We stayed two years ago with two families. The onsite property manager was incredibly unwelcoming and overly negative when reciting the property rules, we felt uncomfortable using the common space area and were advised not to use the fire pit (not an issue, the approach was just intense — she ran up). We actually laughed at the memory, it became a joke bc the treatment was intense. Fast forward two years, we have a family event to attend and due to sheer limited options to stay we land at the same hotel, and again were treated poorly by the manager as soon as she saw we had children. While there were adults on the shared patio area carrying on and talking loudly well past 10:30pm, she made sure our families, who’s children were on the bluff trail yards away from the shared seating area, ‘were too loud and keeping her up’ at 8:50pm and again at 9:05pm, we were then asked to leave? We were informed ‘complaints had been made’, I literally saw her watching us like a hawk with her head poking out of the little house she lives onsite at, the entire time. It’s clear families aren’t welcome, they’re treated much differently than guests with no kids. The behavior and odd monitoring of our families ruined our trip. We all traveled far and wide to be here, visiting in the open space seating, on a Saturday evening, just as others were, to be harassed and watched made us anxious, uncomfortable and forced us to end our night early. Won’t be back ever.

Just a quick overnight for us with a late check in and early exit, but the room was comfortable for 4. We would have liked to have had longer to stay. Great location. Had a wonderful early breakfast at the Bakery Pizza across the road.
