  Amazing place!

  The Stanford Inn exceeded our already high expectations. Very dog-friendly! We loved that we could bring our dog to the dining room us for our meals. The food was really wonderful, the dinners and desserts especially. Small but nice gift shop in the lobby. Our ocean-view room had a fireplace and we used it every night. I highly recommend staying at this resort if you are in the Mendocino area.

  Great hotel - recommend

  We brought our 4 small dogs. They loved the garden walks and were very comfortable. The room is very nice but smaller than expected. The food in the restaurant is amazing and service extremely attentive. Worth the drive to get over here (128 from the 101) the redwoods were amazing. We'll be taking the 20 back to the 101 which we hear is a bit faster.

  We have spa services and a private adv. gardening class scheduled today and we'll be using one of there recommended pet sitters

  Update:
  Private gardening class with JAIME & MATT was very informative. We cant wait to get back home and start doing some of the things that they recommended. I highly suggest taking their class if it is scheduled or book a private class during your stay. We also lucked out and got have to talk gardening etc later in the evening with both of them. They are genuine & sincere with such sweet spirits it was just a real pleasure having had that opportunity. Take a class! No matter how small your space they will show you how to grow edibles that taste amazing and give you pointers on how to have long-term gardening success!

  Dog sitting services: We used a sweet women named CAROL who was recommended by the front desk. She was prompt and took very good care of our 4 small dogs while we were out, Carol is a real animal lover and cares for all the feral cats in the area which reveals the compassion she has for animals. Her prices are reasonable, she was available during the day/evening, and she didn't have a hour minimum.

  Pool, jacuzzi, sauna: are in their own little eco-system. Workout room was small but has everything you need to get a good workout. Internet connection was constant and easily accessed.

  A full breakfast was included in our rate every day and it was great. We opted to go get it (no morning room service) and eat it on our patio which was extremely peaceful.

  Prices for drinks and food in the Ravens restaurant were relatively high compared to restaurants but probably similar to other resorts. $20-25 entrees $10-15 glass of wine, desserts $10-12.

  Spa: The therapists are independent contractors. We were scheduled with CAITLIN. Love her! just a really nice woman with incredible technique. I had the 90 minute deep tissue which was nothing short of amazing. My husband who opted for the sea salt scrub/massage was equally impressed with her.

  So footnotes...My absolute favorite parts of the resort are the garden that JAIME oversees, the urban gardening research project that MATT oversees, and spa services by CAITLIN. Having CAROL watching our dogs while were out of the room gave us a lot of peace of mind.

  Climate is perfect - grounds absolutely beautiful. Really nice resort - highly recommend.
