It's a fine hotel. I think the carpet just got washed. The room smelled strongly of cleaning products, and the floor was slightly damp. Hopefully, that's not the norm. I had the lower level; there's very little noise barrier between levels, and I can hear everyone's footsteps. Otherwise, it's fine. Good location, plenty of parking with all the basic amenities you would expect.

Location is perfect! You can hear and see the beach. Quick access to the walking/ biking trail. Feels somewhat like a condo. Water pressure is low at the sink but the shower was fine. I’m assuming they all are conserving water in this area. Everything was clean. The only issue was coffee as you check. Either I didn’t see it with the cups etc or it wasn’t made. But coffee was in the room as per usual. Check in was easy and quick.

We have loved this hotel since 2018 when we first stayed here. We keep coming back because it’s consistently excellent. Clean room, friendly staff, ocean view is beautiful. There is a perfect running path right outside the room patios. Only thing that would make it perfect is if they still offered fresh brewed coffee in the lobby—there is an in room Keurig though.

Superb

I love to stay here at Surf and Sand. The location is excellent, right on the walkway, unobstructed view of ocean and sunset. Balconies are the most comfortable viewing compared to 3 others I have stayed at near. Highly recommend, and a quick drive to anywhere in Fort Bragg.

Staff gave away our room to another guest before we arrived. She was going to make the other guest change rooms and have housekeeping come back to clean it. We agreed to accept a different room without the upgrades, then she started saying we hadn’t paid for the upgrades anyway. She was initially apologetic then started making up stories. The rooms were beautiful and very close to the beach. The staff was unfriendly and unpleasant.
