The Stanford Inn by the Sea

On a Coastal hillside, the Stanford Inn & Resort overlooks Mendocino Bay and the resort’s historic farm. A haven, The Stanford Inn & Resort offers exquisite opportunities to reconnect with one another, nature, your creativity and joyfulness.

The resort’s lobby is spacious and welcoming. Guest rooms and suites of this boutique hotel in Mendocino are paneled in pine and redwood. Every detail is attended to, from wood-burning fireplaces ready to light, to the sumptuous chef-prepared organic plant-based breakfasts included with your stay.

Inspired by their on-site certified organic gardens, the resort’s Ravens Restaurant was featured in Oprah Magazine, and is nationally acclaimed for gourmet plant-based cuisine. Ravens Restaurant is the essential dining experience on the Mendocino Coast. The cuisine served in the restaurant, the composting and recycling program, the cleaning supplies, and bio-diesel fueled trucks, make Mendocino’s Stanford Inn & Resort North America’s only truly sustainable destination.

The resort specializes in romantic getaways, is pet-friendly, family-friendly, and is especially popular for Northern California Coast weddings and elopements. The resort’s Massage in the Forest and wellness center provide a variety of life-enhancing experiences. Unlike anywhere in the world, the resort’s ‘pedaling and paddling’ experiences are incredible – guests are often seen quietly paddling up Big River on a super-stable redwood outrigger canoe!
