Great Inn consisting of a number of individual “cottage” like rooms. We had a glorious view of the ocean. Good breakfast though some inconsistency in what was offered to who! Would happily stay again.

This was our first time in Mendocino so our expectations were muted. I found Agate Cove on an online search and decided to book with them. And I’m so pleased to report that I’m so glad I did! The facility, besides the fact that it is ocean front, is immaculate including the rooms and the landscaping. Service was excellent and our room was spacious, clean and had a spectacular view of the grounds and ocean. Definitely going back!!

A great breakfast and a great view.

I love the end! The location for us was fantastic being that we walk quite a bit. The headlands are right out. Your front door and downtown is about .6 miles. The road was kind of tight but made walking doable. The service was great, and the breakfast was great. The view at breakfast can’t be beat. The only disappointment was the bathroom, especially the shower. Way overdue for a makeover. The general manager did tell us they were going to remodel it, but that didn’t do us any good. The fixtures in the shower and the tile in the shower were not up to par in fact a bit disgusting. The fixtures on the shower haven’t been changed since the 40s . Would we come back, probably but not in the topaz room. The room itself was great, but the bathroom and shower left a lot to be desired for that price.

Just perfect

This is such a perfect little place to stay. Everyone was so nice and the room was very comfortable. The breakfast was really good and the night lounge with fresh homemade cookies is such a sweet treat. We will definitely be back.

The property was well kept. Our room had a partial ocean view. It was spacious and had outdoor seating. The breakfast in the morning was very good and the breakfast staff were wonderful! The two of them were the best part of our stay. Stevie is a gem and can really cook. They were both so friendly! While the property is close to town, it's not walkable because of the lack of sidewalks. Not having hotel staff on site is an inconvenience. We realized at about 7 pm that the batteries were out of the tv remote. It's not an emergency, but it's frustrating and inconvenient. There isn't cell service at the hotel and there wasn't a phone in the room so we couldn't make any calls.

Nice bed and breakfast in Mendocino county.

Very nice property with great views. The staff was nice and the breakfast was good, my wife enjoyed our stay for anniversary first time in Mendocino, lots of history I learned about the indigenous people who were there before the colonizers came, beautiful beaches and landscapes, very happy with my choice to visit Agate Cove Inn.

We had the Emerald room and had amazing view of the water. Traffic noise from HWY1 runs right behind hotel so that was a surprise- but overall beautiful view and otherwise quiet property made it worth it. Would stay again
