Bodega Bay Lodge

If you'd like a place to unwind totally, this is the place to go! Trails and the beach are all in walking distance. The heated pool and hot tub are always a delight, and the staff is always kind and will do anything to help. Stayed in a beautiful bay view room and slept like a log both nights I was there. Drakes is absolutely delicious upon each meal. This is a place one goes to COMPLETELY relax so don't expect an active nightlife there or close by.

We try to visit The Lodge at Bodega Bay every year, and they never cease to amaze us with their outstanding hospitality. Our most recent stay truly warmed our hearts! On our first night, we were hoping to catch the Warriors playoff game and enjoy room service while our toddlers settled in and took in the beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, the one channel airing the game wasn’t working in our room. Within minutes of calling, guest services was at our door—literally in under two minutes—trying to fix the issue. They worked diligently with IT, even on a Saturday night, rebooting the system several times. When it couldn’t be resolved, they offered to move us to another room. We declined, as it wasn’t a big deal for us—we just streamed the game on our iPad. The next afternoon, we returned from our son’s birthday outing to find a handwritten note, some saltwater taffy, and a complimentary bottle of wine thanking us for our patience. That night, we ordered room service for dinner, including a dessert for our son’s second birthday—and they even supplied us with a candle on such late notice. To top it off, they comped the entire meal. The gesture was incredibly thoughtful and meant so much to us. I highly recommend The Lodge at Bodega Bay—we’ll definitely keep coming back. 🥹🥰 To the guest services team: it’s the little things that make a big difference, and we truly appreciate you.

Absolutely beautiful property. The staff is at your beckon call and always accommodating and friendly. The room was beautifully appointed. Great bedding, refrigerator, easy access to everything the property had to offer. The view from our second story room was enchanting. View of the bay and cliff. Bodega Bay is a lovely area to explore and embrace nature.

I dreamt of staying here for 12 years and finally had the chance to visit with my wife and 15 year old son. Even he was nearly teary-eyed at the thought of leaving. The lodge and experiences are so clean, peaceful and restorative to the soul! The staff is very friendly but not overbearing by seeing to needs without being intrusive. The proximity to such natural beauty and wonderful food and wine was perfect for us. We will return often!

I decided to surprise my wife for her 65th birthday by booking a weeklong stay in Bodega Bay, securing a room with a water view and a fireplace. Mission accomplished! The 2½-hour drive was well worth it. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with professionalism, care, and exemplary service—an experience that continued from check-in through our departure six days later. Being familiar with Bodega Bay, we revisited some of our favorite dining spots and also explored and discovered several new places to eat and enjoy the sights.
