What an enjoyable surprise! We didn’t know what to expect but what we got was a beautifully appointed, newly renovated and extremely clean king room. The location was superb with Adirondack chairs for ocean-gazing. We did not use the hot tub and couldn’t light the fire pit. Close to Gyppo restaurant and a coffee shop was in the adjacent hotel. WiFi, TV, coffee makers and refrigerator in the room. We would definitely return to Black sands Inn.

What I saw on the web page was exactly what it was in person, beautiful decor, with a clean well stocked coffee center, even a blanket for sitting by the fire and watching the breathtaking view from our balcony… thank you for the informative communications and your prompt response to unforeseen issues that arose… it was a wonderful, too short stay, we will return in our dreams!

Great accommodations, renovated and super clean!!! The staff (the person who assisted us entering our room and getting it ready came across a bit unfriendly, as she didn't want to be bothered. A smile and a warm welcome can got long ways after a long trip to your place.

Enjoyed sleeping to the sound of waves. Overhead fan didn’t work and no clothes hangers. But we enjoyed location.

Stunning Ocean Views on the Lost Coast
Ten unit boutique property with all rooms literally just feet from the ocean. We watched whales spout and seals frolic while sipping wine on our patio. The room was well appointed and, although there is no onsite staff, the hotel was immediately responsive to questions via email. The 24 mile ride in and out of Shelter Cove from Hwy 101 is not for the faint of heart so plan on staying within Shelter Cove for the duration of your stay ( this is not a good base for exploring the redwoods). As for Shelter Cove, just a handful (like five) places to eat, some only open for brief windows of time or certain days so be prepared for that. Also, while the rest of California was under an extreme heat advisory the high in Shelter Cove was 62 during our July stay. It gets windy, damp and foggy even during the summer so be sure to pack warm clothes. This is not a lie on the beach and swim vacation destination, but if you enjoy watching big waves crash on the rocks and spotting sea mammals right outside your door this is a place you should check out.
