Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają

  • Infinity-edge hot tub overlooking the wetlands and bay
  • Real wood-burning fireplaces in most rooms (rare for hotels)
  • Zero resort fees and free parking in a region that usually gouges for both

Szybki przegląd: It's a 1960s lodge that's been glow-up renovated to 'rustic-chic'—expect luxury prices but motel-style exterior corridors.

Przejrzane przez @katwalksf: I needed a break from the city, and this spot delivered. My room had a fireplace and a private balcony where I watched the sunset every night. The seafood at Drakes was incredible, and seeing deer right outside my window made me feel so connected to nature. Highly recommend.

The hype

Guests universally adore the views and the infinity hot tub, but some feel the price is high for a property with exterior hallways.

Reality check

The 'partial ocean view' rooms often mean 'view of the parking lot with a sliver of water,' so upgrade if the view matters.

  • You love the smell of a real wood fire while watching the fog roll in
  • You want a quiet, adult-centric vibe (even though kids are allowed)
  • You appreciate free perks like bikes and parking over nickel-and-dime fees

FAQ i ukryte porady

Wszystko, co naprawdę chcesz wiedzieć, zanim zarezerwujesz.

Is there a resort fee?

No. Unlike many California coastal resorts, they do not charge a resort fee. Parking and Wi-Fi are also free.

Is the pool heated?

Yes, the outdoor pool is heated year-round, and the infinity-edge hot tub is a major highlight.

Can I walk to the beach?

Yes, it's about a 10-15 minute walk to Doran Beach via a path, or a 2-minute drive (guests get a free parking pass for the beach).

Do all rooms have fireplaces?

Most rooms have real wood-burning fireplaces. They provide a starter log/wood, and you can request more.

Is it kid-friendly?

Yes, but it leans romantic. Kids are welcome, but the vibe is definitely more 'wine and sunset' than 'cannonballs in the pool'.

How is the cell service?

Spotty in the general area, but the hotel Wi-Fi is reliable enough for streaming and calls.

Porady dla wtajemniczonych

  • ✨

    Grab the complimentary cruiser bikes and ride to Doran Beach to skip the walk.

  • ✨

    Happy Hour at Drakes Fireside Lounge (4-6pm) has great deals and the same view as the expensive dinner.

  • ✨

    Ask for a 'marsh view' if you want to birdwatch; it's often quieter than the 'ocean view' which can be windier.

5 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem

  • 💡The 'ocean view' is often across a marsh and a road, not a cliff-edge drop.

  • 💡There are no elevators, which can be a pain with heavy luggage if you're on the second floor.

  • 💡The bathroom layouts in standard rooms can be tight compared to the spacious bedrooms.

  • 💡Fog is a daily reality here, even in summer—don't book expecting guaranteed sunshine.

  • 💡The 'resort fee' of $0 is a cheeky way of marketing their free amenities, but it's actually true.
