Tomasz, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

I loved having access to a private beach. The sunset views were amazing. We enjoyed the pool, fire pit, and playing Cornhole. There is pier and kayaks if interested in using. Also, having a great tasting free breakfast with an amazing view just added to the experience.
Arelys, 2-night trip

Loved our stay! Wish it didn’t rain but was an amazing weekend.
Danielle, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Recommend 2nd floor, can hear guests above you. Walls are thin, can hear people snoring in adjacent room. But quiet hours were respected. Free breakfast is better than most other hotels. Free kayaks were nice to have available. Would stay again.
Sharon, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Scenic. Quiet locatipn. Customer service was excellent. Enjoyed the made to order breakfasts brought right to you. They say they are striving always to improve and deliver a top notch experience.... and I would believe it
Peter, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property was nice, but nothing was really accessible for people with disabilities, or strollers. A wheelchair user would not be able to dine in the restaurant at all, or access the front office. The staff were all incredibly nice and helpful! I did not use the pool, so I can't attest to how that was. The food at the restaurant was good, but i don't think the quality matched the prices. The room was clean and well stocked, the view from our balcony was incredible!
We named this guy 'Hank.' He liked to hang out around the restaurant.
Amanda, 2-night trip

Septic smell

Hot breakfast was very good. We were there before they started the buffet, so it was cook to order off a limited menu. View of the bay was so-so, but the room was nice. The family who owns the place were very nice.
Jill, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

While we looked at hotels near the busy harbor area for our stay, we were so glad we chose Smuggler's Cove instead. The front desk and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. The balcony outside our room gave us a wonderful place to watch the sunset on the beautiful, peaceful cove...exactly what we'd hoped for. And the bed...oh my!! I'm usually very disappointed with the pillows at hotels but these were firm and the bedding was super soft and comfy. The short ride to the harbor for restaurants, shops and boat tours gave us an excuse to explore a little bit more of the area and we were glad for that too. Definitely recommend!!!
Karen, 2-night trip

The place is awesome. The area is great, rooms are clean and comfortable.

Quaint setting with a little beach and a lot of kayaks and paddle boards to use. Breakfast was great and it was close to Booth Bay where there is lots of food options and shopping.
Miranda, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We stayed at the end of the season to view the foliage and visit the pumpkin fest. The inn was nicely decorated and had amazing views of the harbor. The inn had nice amenities like a fire pit and free breakfast. We were also pleased at it proximity to booth bay harbor shops and restaurants.
