Great Views no so great bed.
The bed needed to be replaced, we could feel the springs and woke up sore every morning. There was no closet or hooks to hang your clothing. No room service at all. Covid is over refresh the rooms. The plus was it is on the beach fantastic views and walkability.

Amazing find right outside of Mendocino. LOVE!
We were so very satisfied with our stay here. We normally stay in Mendocino but in the future...we will be right back here. Beautifully appointed, incredibly clean, awesome view, and very short walk to the ocean. I would recommend to all my friends to give thos Fort Bragg gem a try. It will not disappoint. Hotel Manager and staff were amzing as well!

Beautiful, cozy, ocean view
Absolutely beautiful view of the ocean. Room was clean, and felt cozy while offering tons of room. Immediately regretted not having a longer stay, and already figuring out when to go visit again. Looking forward to another stay here.

Perfect Stay to start fall...
We drove up from Lake Tahoe for the first week of October for one of our two yearly "ocean/coastal town" visits. We always pick places on the ocean, to enjoy a calm relaxing start to fall. The Anderson Valley vineyards/wineries are a must visit. The Surf and Sand was a cute, clean location. The ocean views from our 2nd floor room was amazing. We woke and fell asleep to the sound of the ocean on the rocks....healing! The staff was polite and offered everything we needed for our stay. We stayed for 5 nights and walked everywhere, visiting coves and beaches. The Skunk Train was a fun adventure, with rides to the Glen Blair Bar on the weekend enjoying drinks, smores and live music tucked away in the Redwoods in an open timber frame barn. Visit Eggheads resturant! Best breakfast! We drove to Mendocino for the day.... cute shops and loved lunch at Frankies. Dont forget Cowlicks for amazing ice cream.

I enjoy Surf and Sands mostly because of the view and cleanliness. Easy access to the beach and bluffs. Decks are great for relaxing, especially at Sunset. If the occasion is right, get the Jacuzzis suites. Been enjoying for this trip for a few years now. Definitely worth a little extra for early morning relaxation and Sunsets.

Spectacular View of Sunset and Surf
The sunset view with sight and sound of surf crashing in the foreground was spectacular! A perfect ending to a day of winding along Hwy 1 from Bodega Bay and walking along the paved path in front of the Lodge to bluffs and wooden bridge.

Surf and Sand Lodge was a great stay. It was right off the coast and you can see the ocean from the balcony. Short drive into town and overall good choice to book your stay for vacation.
