If you feel like you are part of the ruling class and expect the serfs to cater to your every whim, this is probably not the place for you. However, if you want a nice, clean, quiet, private getaway from the hustle and bustle, you will probably love the Sea Cliff. Bob and Tobie and Mr. Cody will welcome you... More

This little gem was sadly represented by the manager who must have been very overwhelmed, but I was so happy to find out the owners are back running it full time! Bob and Tobi are so hospitable and funny, I can really look forward to my (at least) twice yearly stays again! The rooms are very clean and cozy, the... More

What a cool place! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet getaway. This year was the second year in a row that my family and I have visited the Sea Cliff and it won’t be the last. It sure is reassuring to visit a place that offers such a fair price for so much room.

We were looking for a pet friendly cabin experience and were very frustrated by the general lack of places that allow pets in northern california. Sea Cliff was recommended by another hotel and exceeded our expectations in every regard. Our room (#4) included a full kitchen with a gas stove, a queen bed and 2 single beds. The decor is... More

I hate to review this, since the lady who helped us was so nice, but we want to warn other travelers to beware of this place. We get the heebie geebies and ooh gross feelings just thinking about it. Good: the lady, pet-friendly. Bad: everything else. Dirty musty smelly everything; the stench hung thick in the air. Heaters were portable... More

I recently spent time in Trinidad for Thanksgiving with some friends...Unfortunately there house was not so dog friendly, and having my dog with me, needed to find a quiet pace for the evening for my pup and I. I was greeted warmly as soon as I pulled up. The room was clean, and cozy, and quiet as well. While I... More

Trinidad wasn't looking its best in the rain, and neither was the Sea Cliff Motel. My pyjamas still smell musty. Nice lady greeted us but she is running a no hoper. The place needs a mega refit. There are many more lovely (and easier) places to stay along the coast (the only place we could find for dinner was the... More

We were in the area for a family reunion this summer and we stayed at the Sea Cliff one night. We booked two rooms for four people. Both rooms were funky, dirty and smelly. Very disappointing. We were happy to get out of there the next day and on the road.

If you really want to stay in this immediate area this may suit you if on a budget- there are some pricey fancy B&Bs around here, not much under $125 (in late Sept). This place from the 50's hasn't been well-maintained. The room ceiling looks pretty bad and the shower door needs to be replaced, furnishings are not very nice,... More

When you pull in and see the weeds, debris, unkempt grounds, dirty, mismatched lawn chairs, "garages" with no doors - pull out and go somewhere else because this is as good as it gets. When you open the door to the room and dirt flies up every time you take a step on the carpet - which hasn't been vacuumed... More
