On the right, with the large balcony, is my room. Also pet friendly.

On the recommendation of friends, I tried Seafoam for the first time, and what a lovely surprise. I had a large end room with a huge balcony. Fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and a view that wouldn't quit! I don't remember the last time a room was this clean, I mean down to the corners. And the best part? Thomas and Christina at the desk. Well, more than that... they make things click. At cocktail time, Thomas would bring me a bag of ice. Several times Christina had made fresh banana bread and he brought me a slice. How does it get more thoughtful than that? The entire staff was friendly and helpful, and I certainly appreciate them!

We had such a comfortable, and relaxing stay at the Seafoam Lodge in Mendocino. The property grounds were immaculate, with beautiful landscaping and a variety of plants that added to the serene atmosphere. Our room was spacious, spotless, and tastefully decorated with modern touches that made it feel like a perfect blend of style and comfort. One of the highlights was the view of the ocean from our balcony, which added an extra touch of tranquility to the experience. The check-in process was smooth and welcoming, setting the tone for a wonderful stay. Great location with a short drive to town.

What a great location! I made a last minute booking here on a whim for a weekend getaway. It was $300 for the night which is what you'll pay for for the location. What is unique a great about this lodge is that EVERY room has an ocean view! We were on the second floor end unit. The balcony is spacious and has a bar table with 2 chairs on it. We had dinner on the balcony with a view of the ocean and sunset on the night we stayed. Zack, the front desk manager, was very friendly and gave us great restaurant suggestions of all kinds. He set up a nice breakfast the next morning in the lobby which consisted of cereals, oatmeal, croissants, danishes, bagels, muffins. This was all complimentary. Along with coffee, orange juice, apple juice, hot chocolate. It's always nice when you have a great amiable front desk manager. Outside of the lobby there are a couple of small tables for 2 where you an sit and eat your breakfast. There is also a small little patio below with chairs and string lights where you can sit as well. The room we had was clean, updated and had a very comfortable bed! The amenities like soap, shampoo, conditioner were good quality also. I love when hotels do the refillable shampoo, conditioner, body soap dispensers in the shower and it reduces usage of plastic bottles and is less wasteful. The shower was nicely tiled as well as the bathroom floors. There is a TV and blow dryer in the room as well as free wi-fi. The lodge is very close to downtown Mendocino (6 minute drive) and a 12-15 minute drive to Fort Bragg. Super convenient! I would definitely recommend this lodge for anyone looking to stay in the area!

Not worth the price tag. The room was organized but it reeked of bleach and dirty mop water. The walls are paper thin and certain guests behaved rudely and racist. I did not feel safe or welcomed in this over priced basic looking lodge. We could barely see the ocean due to the tree line and road. We love staying at Hilton and Marriott (free breakfast and lots of amenities) properties because we are treated with respect. This will be the first and last time we patronize this establishment. I would not be surprise if this place goes under.

This Shelter in Place has me missing so many places. The list is endless and I just do not know where to begin. The Seafoam Lodge is a recent discovery. My wife and I stayed here this past January for her birthday weekend. Before booking, I did quite a bit of research and it seemed for the price point it provided a lot of value for the buck. And once we arrived Seafoam far exceeded our expectations. The rooms are newly renovated and updated to a level of comfort that is hard to beat. The rooms are spacious and quiet. Also the views are amazing from your private balcony. The checkin staff is super friendly and very accommodating to your any need. The location is perfect for a quick five mile drive to the beautiful town of Mendocino and some of the North Coasts most epic state parks. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that our Shelter in Place eases up and we can get back here this summer.

From the grounds at dusk

Set off the road and against a gorgeous forrest backdrop. Beautiful ocean views, comfortable beds and well appointed room with mini fridge and microwave. Good coffee and great muffins for breakfast. Pet friendly

view from room 1

this property is so cute! we stayed in room 1, it was super clean, comfy bed, and all the rooms have a small patio. you honestly can't beat the price for this kind of location and high quality feeling stay. me and my boyfriend couldn't afford to stay in most of the other inns around mendo like heritage house down the road, but this felt just as nice and the staff was so friendly.

John L.

Really nicely remodeled, clean, quiet room. Super friendly staff and peaceful, ocean view property. If you're looking to get away and unwind at a great value this is the place to do it! I also really enjoyed the coffee... each room has a coffee maker with actual filter and ground coffee. Tasty!

Is there any kind of beach access from the property? If not, how far is the beach?

Not really, however you can see the ocean from rooms, ie 2nd floor. 5 min rrom icean/beach access. Very quiet lodging facility(i like my sleep). Nice people.

Stayed at Little River Inn last October, but just now getting to a review. All I can really say is…read morethe place was worth every cent and then some. The rooms are quaint but spacious enough. But the real appeal is the views. Just unbelievably gorgeous. It's just one of those things you must do and see in person. We stayed in one of the rooms with the long shared balcony. My initial concern was privacy but it was a non-issue. Everyone was polite and friendly. No noise issues or anything. We spent most of our room time outside enjoying the views and just soaking all of the beauty in. The Little River Inn is just down the road from Mendocino, and a short 10-15 minute drive to Fort Bragg. Perfect location for what we were doing that weekend. Staff was wonderful. The real surprise of the trip was the restaurant. I normally shy away from hotel restaurants, as I prefer to sample the local cuisine. However, we decided to give it a try our first night for Dinner. I was delicious and quite popular with the locals as well. I'll be doing a separate review for the restaurant, as I strongly recommend having at least one meal there. We ended up having two...lol. Just a great stay and a definite revisit when we get the time again. If I could give the place more stars I would.

Nice porch with comfy chairs to enjoy the garden and partial ocean view. Primarily garden so choose adjacent room if you want full view. The inn has only one outdoor uncovered table if you want to eat at the restaurant. We ordered our breakfast to be delivered and it was very nicely packed and tasty. Also, loved their bloody mary kit . Very nice ! Our patio was a nice spot to enjoy our meal with our dog. Overall,a nice stay,good location but would have loved a later check out. Its 10AM and that is a bit rushed when in vacation!

Just magnificent! There's a good sized living room, full kitchen and refrigerator, a small 4 seater dining area, a bedroom (almost entirely taken up by a queen bed) with a sliding door that opens onto a balcony and a full bathroom. I asked for decaf coffee ahead of time and that was waiting for me together with a small bottle of white wine from a local winery. There is no internet unless you connect to the property's wifi which is more than adequate - about 60 mbps in this bungalow. The bungalow temperature is controlled by a thermostat and a self-igniting gas fireplace. These are the plus-es. On the minus side, the balcony had no view to speak of at all, looking mostly at the exit road and the side of the bungalow in front of the Albion. (I think the view from the other bungalow balconies is better.) The furniture was old and very worn. The couch/ pull out bed in the living room was hard and not particularly comfortable to sit on watching TV. The biggest negative was my bathroom (but only the bathroom) was crawling with ants. When I mentioned it to the property contact they were quick to say they'll address but, unfortunately, it was time for me to leave before they could. (My fault for late notification to them). In all, it is a comfortable (not luxurious) stay in a spectacularly beautiful area at a reasonable price. It's a solid 3* accommodation in a 4-5* setting at a reasonable price.

If I could give zero stars I would. We check into our room and immediately see a stain on the…read morefloor. I clean it and it appears it was chocolate milk. I then wonder how dirty the rest of the floor is so I take some paper towels and clean an area and this is what it looks like. I emailed the innkeeper and they responded right away and said they would have someone take care of it in the morning. When we come home from dinner I go to turn the light on in the porch area and it's out. So I again email the innkeeper and he responded quick and said he would have the manager of the day call me tomorrow. So I get a call from one of the owners who didn't seem shocked and was semi apologetic. This cabin was over $400 a night and I would expect a clean and safe room. I asked for a discount and was offered a discount on a future stay and I said I would not be going there again and all he said was "okay and bye" and hung up. So some other thing's wrong in this cabin, slider door to patio, lock broken so the lock is a stick. Shower head is about to come off the wall. I will post pictures of that. The entire property is very unkempt, spider webs and weeds everywhere. Not worth the price we paid.

Pictures on line depicted my room/cabin as it appeared when I arrived. Big soaking spa tub, shower, electric fireplace for heat, microwave, TV, excellent comfortable king size bed, privacy including a deck where dogs can come out but cannot escape. Facility is older but in decent shape. Wish room had refrigerator. Lots of towels, large sized shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion: a plus. It's older, renovations due for shower and maybe windows and exterior. The bed was amazing!!! Property lists hot tub and sauna but neither were working or available for use. BBQ on site. Adirondack chairs throughout the property, some have a lot of bird dung on them so unusable. Deck in the large grassy area with seating. Huge lawn area, plenty of room to walk dogs around, play or throw a ball or frisbee. Mowed, clean. Poop bags and garbage disposal stations in variorus locations on the property. Rooms stocked with water and food bowls, eating/water tray as well as dog beds, dog sheet, towels and frisbees. Grounds clean, everyone picks up after their dogs. Plenty of room to run. Friendly, welcoming, professional staff members. Greeted with a welcome and glad you're here, hope you enjoy your time with us. Asked about my stay when I checked out and thanked me for staying. Don't forget to tip the housekeeping staff. They do a great job preparing for your stay. Quiet, private and cozy.

All of that together adds up to a sort of paradise during these hectic times. There was a big surprise in our room when we arrived and I'm attaching a picture. I had ordered some flowers for the room but what was delivered may have been the most colorful and beautiful flower arrangement that I've ever seen. We didn't know it then, but these flowers were all picked from the Inn grounds. On our way back from our Big River ride we met someone working in the garden.

Those flowers kind of symbolizes why we love our visits and the atmosphere at the Inn - one of growth, joy and a deep appreciation of nature. Thank you to all the staff - at the front desk, the restaurant, the room service, the garden keepers, the boat-people, even the cats. We'll be back!

As I walked in, I met a beautiful and kind person with an honest smile on her face. She introduced herself as Issabel. She made you feel at home, and now it's time to rest. This hotel is so beautiful that you don't want to leave this place. Isabel showed us around and genuinely took care of us. We were so lucky to find this place. Dinner was served around 5:30, and the chef made fresh food for us. Breakfast is included, and it's delicious and presented beautifully. Isabel stayed completely involved with us. Usually, we drop bags and want to go outside, but leaving this place was hard. Thank God we were on the first floor with the ocean view. This place is a must-visit in Mendocino.

We were charged $47.47 for 2 nights. What I wasn't a fan of: -Very thin ceilings and walls, you will hear everything in the lobby and other rooms and it will keep you up. -Cell phone reception is spotty to non-existent.

We booked the outdoor hot tub #2 for one hour on a Sunday. It's $40/person on the weekends. This was a rainy weekend early in the season, so the spa was very quiet. It was quite serene to be outside in the hot tub, with light rain falling down! There is complete privacy at the tub, but there is also a larger communal tub option as well. The sauna is also communal. One drawback is that the restroom and locker room area did not seem to have separated male/female spaces. Luckily, we had the place to ourselves besides some older women, so it was not an issue. However, I would not have loved it had it been busier. It's a small space, so heads up on that if you're going. Overall, this was a fun and unique experience to do in Mendocino. It was very relaxing and peaceful, and the price was decent for the service. I would definitely go again. Very fun!
