Location and access
Located on the corner of Hwy One and Ocean View Drive, the Emerald Dolphin Inn is south of the Noyo Bridge and north of the Hwy 20 intersection on the ocean side.

Hotel Services
The Emerald Dolphin Inn offers information on local attractions and restaurants. The front desk is open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, with staff available on-site 24 hours. Amenities include an Emerald Dolphin Inn gift certificate and AAA-approved rooms.
“The Inn stands out with its convenient location near Mendocino Coast attractions and an engaging on-site miniature golf course, perfect for families and pet owners alike; a AAA Three Diamond Award recognizes the Inn. However, inconsistent internet access and the lack of in-room microwaves, balanced by a lobby microwave, may detract from some stays. It's a solid choice for travelers focused on location and activities over in-room amenities.”
