Staff are *very* nice at The Inn at the Tides. On the evening that I stayed, a fog horn in Bodega Bay was beeping every 8 seconds. Closing all the windows tight didn't help. I was hoping there would be more to Bodega Bay than there is. It really is just a fork in the road, a beach, and a hiking trail.

Skip the breakfast at the Inn. I like the fine dining restaurant the cafe experience was unacceptable. With our continental breakfast included we went down to have a nice breakfast on the ocean. Not our experience or expectations at all. We were seated give our iced tea and completely left on our own. Both tables next to us were waited on promptly while we sat there trying to get someone’s attention for between 20-30 minutes. They had their food cooked and delivered. Enjoy the hotel pass the breakfast. Estero in Valley Ford is great!

Gorgeous spot in bodega bay! The room was lovely with a nice patio and an amazing view, where we could enjoy the free bottle of wine they provided! The on site restaurant was great as well, and the pool/spa area was large and inviting. I would definitely return!

Room was good bathroom a disappointment.

The room was very nice, had a good view of the bay. The one disappointment was the bathroom, there were no rails on the walls or in the bathtub. We weren't expecting the room to be a handicap access room, but every hotel room we have stayed in in a long time has had rails (a rail at least) in the bathtub. We are seniors and have come to expect this. We left without taking showers because of the lack of support in the tub/shower area. If other rooms had rails in them we should have been given one of those rooms at check-in. This was our first stay at The Inn at the Tides we probably won't be back because of this problem. Otherwise our stay was very pleasant, the staff was great, parking was fine, and breakfast was good too.

Best part of our 15 day trip West was our 4 days here. The outdoor pool, sauna & hot tub are to die for, with robes & pool towels provided in rooms. It's a 20 meter pool so I was able to swim my mile of laps...a treat. Bed and bedding extremely comfortable. Very very quiet and parking was right @ our door. Will always stay here in future trips to Sebastopol.
