We had a wonderful stay at The Black Sands Inn. The property's direct access to the beautiful beach was a huge plus, offering stunning views and perfect opportunities for tide pooling and beachcombing. The hot tub was a definite highlight—it was incredibly clean and relaxing with its great views, strong jets, and comfortable seats. We also appreciated the convenience of having several good restaurants located nearby. We are hoping to stay longer next time to explore more.

This was a great place to go stay by the ocean. You can't get any closer to the ocean than this place! Wonderful outdoor chairs to sit and soak in the Ocean breeze. Nice clean rooms, plenty of towels and coffee. Management is very responsive to inquiries.

Shelter Cove is an isolated location protecting the natural beauty of the area. Bring your favorite wine and other romantic items because there’s not a lot around regarding culinary delights However, we didn’t venture out because of the pounding rain. Never underestimate the local culinary delights

Hate digital check-in, especially when the code doesn’t work! The instructions for opening fort are imprecise. The area around the hotel is depressing—filled with junk, run down. The room was clean and comfortable, with a great view of the ocean.

If you're looking for fun and exciting this is not the area for that BUT if you're looking for peace and relaxation, there's no other place is rather be than Black Sands Inn. The quadruple room comes with a full-size kitchen so buy groceries before entering the area, we stopped in Willits( traveling from Bay Area), at a Safeway and got everything we needed for our stay. The property is excellent and would definitely return in the future.
