What guests say
8.3 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 1,311 guest reviews
Lighthouse Inn earns consistent praise for its generously sized, mostly clean rooms, genuinely friendly staff, and an unbeatable location close to the beach and Redwood National Park. However, the property shows its age — décor and furnishings are outdated, beds divide opinion on comfort, and the complimentary breakfast repeatedly disappoints guests expecting more than cereal and bagels. Ongoing renovation work added noise disruption for some recent visitors, though it may signal improvements ahead.
