Diamond INN the rough!
Just an amazing Inn! The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Breakfast can be served in the dining area or in your room if you prefer. The ocean is a 5 minute walk and the seals are always nearby. Moss beach distillery is about a 15 minute walk for a cocktail, but beware of the ghost. Blue Lady!

Quiet Getaway Hidden at Moss Beach
It would be very difficult to find a more relaxing place to stay on the California coast. More of a place for couples and not a place to bring the kids (for the sake of those who came to enjoy the quiet and beauty of the surroundings).

Seal Cove Inn is an excellent property. Nice facility near some outstanding natural features like Seal Cove Beach and the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve which has great walking options under the Cypress Tree Tunnel and the bluffs Along the Pacific.

Lovely stay in Half Moon Bay!
Everything about the Seal Cove Inn was wonderful! The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was beautiful and very comfortable, and the breakfast delivered to our room was an unexpected treat! We stayed in a room on the first floor with a view of the beautiful garden. There is a full coffee bar on the first floor and the room came with luxurious robes. A short walk from the property through the woods took us to a wonderful restaurant and a beautiful view of the ocean where we were able to watch the seals. We cannot wait to return to Half Moon Bay and to treat ourselves to another stay at the Seal Cove Inn!
