My husband, dog, and I stayed at Mendocino Cove during their soft opening in June 2026. The property was so peaceful, pet-friendly, and extremely clean. It was a little zen oasis between Fort Bragg and Mendocino. It was so convenient to have to have pickleball courts to play at anytime, and the private beach was an absolute gem. From staying in room 3, it was nice to have a little semi-private patio looking into the garden, too.
It was really nice to sleep in a bed where I couldn't feel my husband moving around on his side of the bed because there are separate comforters. It's easy to tell that the owners really thought about minor details to make the stay comfortable. There are nice shampoo, conditioner, lotions in the bathroom and a beauty/makeup mirror.
While we stayed, the restaurant, spa, and gym were still under construction so we hope to come back when those open in the summertime. There were a lot more rooms still in construction so perhaps the next time we come back will feel more lively and crowded. Nonetheless, the location was lovely, clean, and a relaxing getaway from the Bay Area.
You're a few minutes drive away from restaurants, grocery stores, and coffee shops in both Mendocino and Fort Bragg.
