Bodega Bay Inn

Bodega Bay Inn is the kind of place that doesn't appear on most luxury hospitality lists: a small family-owned boutique inn that has been welcoming travelers to Bodega Bay since 1983. The seven updated guest rooms are styled with natural earth tones, simple but inviting furnishings, mini refrigerators, and private patios or decks. While not directly waterfront, glimpses of Bodega Bay are visible from many rooms, and the beach is a five-minute walk away. The scale and ethos make the inn an accessible alternative to the area's larger luxury resorts while maintaining the warm hospitality that defines great independent properties.

The common room offers free WiFi, board games, DVDs, complimentary coffee and tea, and an inviting space for guests to gather and meet other travelers. Though there is no on-site restaurant, Bodega Bay Inn is conveniently next door to Terrapin Creek, a beloved Bodega dining destination, and within walking distance of the village's other restaurants, fishing fleet, and shops. The inn is widely regarded as a 'great buy': high standards of hospitality at accessible pricing, in one of California's most striking coastal settings.
