I would give it 10 stars if I could. The rooms and the property are gorgeous. The short walk to seal beach with seal pups was a bonus.

Seal Cove Inn is top notch! A peaceful retreat that is welcoming and comfortable. The rooms are consistently immaculate. They are spacious and beautifully appointed, each with a toasty working fireplace! The staff are always friendly and accommodating, and knowledgeable about the property and surrounding towns. The daily breakfast selections are fresh, healthy, delicious and locally sourced. Daily freshly baked cookies are complimentary as well as a happy hour featuring a lovely selection of wine and beer. A five minute walk to the tide pools is beautiful with adjoining trails that take you through a magical grove of Monterey cypress trees! Seal Cove is my "go to" to rejuvenate and recharge my spirit!
