Dillon Beach Resort

“Great getaway”

Beautiful place for a weekend getaway. Cabins are lovely and the views are incredible. Beach is right there.

“Favorite dog beach getaway”

The cottages and cabins are so perfect- efficient functionality and stylish coastal comfort. Amazing views and so close to the sweetest beach. We have been coming here for years and it’s magical every time. Staff is so kind and helpful. Restaurant and store have fantastic choices!

“Fun days”

Wonderful experience. Loved the ice cream and the general store. Loved all the activity on the beach.

“Lovely quiet place to enjoy the ocean view”

What a lovely, quiet, and clean place to spend a few days gazing at the ocean. We really enjoyed our winter mid-week visit to Dillon Beach and staying in a Coho tiny home as a couple with our dog.

What a lovely, quiet, and clean place to spend a few days gazing at the ocean. We really enjoyed our winter mid-week visit to Dillon Beach and staying in a Coho tiny home as a couple with our dog. To be clear, this is NOT a 5-star resort hotel. This is a collection of tiny homes managed by the resort. They function more like a vacation rental - no housekeeping, you take out your trash and hand wash your dishes, kitchen for cooking. Different cottages have different things, so this review is specific to the ocean front facing Coho cotttages. Our tiny cottage was really clean and felt new. Coho cottages (ours was #2) have a small living room with amazing picture window wall, a tiny kitchen, bathroom with shower, and queen bed bedroom on the first floor. Above is a loft with another queen bed mattress and a twin bed mattress ... you go up steep stairs and must crawl around in the loft. So - fun for the kids and the young at heart, not really for mid-aged me and my knees. Kitchen was well stocked. Has basic things you will need to cook stove top meals, as well as dish washing soap, paper towels, sponge. THERE IS NO OVEN, but there are 2 stove top burners, a pop-up toaster, and a microwave. We made eggs each morning, cooked pasta, and microwaved ready made foods we brought with us. While there is a general store on site, prices are 3 times normal. Closest main stream grocery store is about 35 minutes away in Petaluma, so we stopped there to shop on our way in. Worked out great. The beach is amazing. Dog friendly, kid friendly, surfers and hydrofoils were all at home here. We walked the beach each day a few times. You can walk down to the beach in about 5 minutes. Parking pass at the resort also works for free parking at the beach, so you can drive down if you need to. The site has a shared area in the middle with a BBQ (first come, first served), trash receptacles, small dog grass relief area with bags, and a cornhole set. They do charge $150 per stay (not per night) for bringing a dog. This seems a bit excessive considering every guest I saw had a dog (this is a dog beach and is advertised as such) and the rates to stay here are not cheap. It would feel like better customer service to not have an add-on cost and just embed the slight extra cleaning required in the overall pricing. Do keep an eye on them for last minute, off-season discounts. I booked two weeks ahead of time on a discount that made a big difference.
