"There is something magical about the Elk Cove In and Spa! Melissa and Victor are incredible hosts, always kind and welcoming. We have stayed in the Bavarian Room twice and the view is mesmerizing and magnificent. If you want a peaceful calming place to spend time with fantastic food, the Elk Cove Inn and Spa is the place to go. They also have access to the beach with is a beautiful added bonus!"

"We have been staying here since 2017, often several times a year. Every trip is truly spectacular. As soon as we get out of the car there, we immediately relax and start walking on clouds. All our cares, stresses, worries are gone. The rooms and suites are clean, well appointed, with a generous basket of goodies. The bed is amazing and our friend who stayed there said they were the softest sheets she ever slept in. The walk to the beach is short and fun and worth the trip. Spectacular views every where. The breakfasts are always delicious and one could NOT ask for friendlier, more helpful staff. Victor and Melissa are THE BEST! Elk Cove Inn Rules!"

"I surprised my fiancé with an unexpected stay at elk cove inn. To say she was ecstatic would be an understatement. Ricky at the front desk was extremely nice and welcoming. We stayed 2 nights in the greenwood room and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean and waking up to the sunrise casting itself on the waves was magical. The cute little restaurant and the most delicious food as well. I could go on and on but if you get a chance I highly recommend checking this cozy little place out"

"When you first pull onto the property, you’ll see the beautiful landscaping. And I don’t just mean a few flowers – I mean they have a full, colorful garden that you walk through and enjoy. There’s also a deck for you to sit, eat a picnic, play cards, or whatever you like while you enjoy the views. The gazebo is also a great, romantic spot on property to watch the sunset while drinking a nice glass of wine from one of the many local wineries. After getting checked in and meeting Bella (one of the unofficial mascot dogs), I was shown my suite. Now, I will tell you – and the owners agree – that this is not 5 star accommodations. If you’re looking for the most modern of spaces to lay your head, this isn’t it. But what you will find is a clean, eclectic space that’s made up of thrift store furniture and meaningful touches. For instance, the suites are each named after a local historical figure from Mendocino County. And on the wall, you’ll find a little information about that person and their contributions to the area. A lot of thought has gone into making these suites your home away from home, but the best part by far is the view. Right outside your window, or stepping out on your balcony, you see the stunning cliffs of the Northern California coast as far as the eye can see of the Pacific Ocean. It’s breath-taking. And that sunset – oh man, it’s absolutely mesmerizing. Melissa and Victor are the heart and soul of the Elk Cove Inn & Spa, and they were the best part of this stay for me. I so admire the way they lovingly care for their staff, animals, and the people they serve. Their commitment to the ingredients they use, the people they employ from the community, and their work ethic is unmatched. And they serve every single guest with a genuine smile and compassion. They truly want you to enjoy your stay – you’re not just another line item for them."

"We are members at the Elk Cove Inn and we thoroughly enjoy each visit there. It's a quaint hotel with a private beach access and great food options! There are many rooms with a view of the ocean but they also have a deck and a cafe overlooking the ocean for the guests staying in non-view rooms. There is free hot breakfast with a room reservation and it's by far the best hotel breakfast I've had in the US."
