Had a wonderful stay at Mendocino Cove! They were pet friendly and had a dog bed, bowls, treats and even towels for our little pup. Amazing grounds and property is well kept. Location perfect with a labyrinth and easy trek to the beach. Room was perfect for our daughter's birthday getaway. Had a bit of wifi issue upon check-in, but it was resolved the next day and didn't miss it all too much. It was relaxing and they really try to focus on wellness. Played some pickleball and the new courts were great! Can't wait to return once they have the spa up and running. Highly recommend staying here!

The best lodging we’ve stayed in while road-tripping the western coast of US. The location is phenomenal with a beautiful cove to watch the sunset. I highly recommend this to travelers and vacationers.

We had a wonderful stay! The room was clean and had everything we needed. We loved the back patio and open space to the garden, the short walk to a semi-private beach, and the pickle ball courts. The property was well maintained. The renovations and overall design of the room was great too— you can tell they put a lot of thought into it to make sure guests feel comfortable and relaxed throughout their stay.

I loved this place! So clean, modern and very well designed. There is only one thing I would change - I wish the shower had a hand held shower head too so I could clean off the sand from my dog. Or maybe an outdoor shower station for the dogs as they come in from the beach? That would help on cleaning up the rooms after as well. But overall - Bravo! This place rocks.

It was a wonderful place we stayed 11 days, it was quiet, and long walks are so close, right out the door. And the beautiful ocean was a short walk away. Thank you Mendocino Cove we had a great time
