Just spent three nights in Mendocino at the Heritage House Resort. It was a beautiful resort, and the staff was very welcoming and thoughtful throughout our stay. We went to their spa for treatment and that was wonderful as well. We had rented the two-bedroom cottage, and they made sure we had firewood stacked and ready to light and brought us smores to enjoy one evening. The small touches were many! Their daily breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious with beautiful views from the dining room. I hope to return one day to this very special property.

Location, grounds, and views are absolutely spectacular! The room was clean and comfortable, but very dated. The views are unparalleled, and that is what you are paying for. If you are looking for anything beyond a peaceful, beautiful view, you should probably stay somewhere else.

8/10 Very good

My partner and I were very excited to stay here. Before our arrival, we were informed that the occupancy during our visit would be low, so we inquired about a paid upgrade at check-in. Unfortunately, our request was denied, even though we saw many vacant rooms and very few cars in the parking lot. This left us confused about the unavailability of an upgrade. Additionally, the room next to ours was booked by a family who were up very early, and we could hear every footstep. We had hoped for a bit more privacy during our stay. On a positive note, we thoroughly enjoyed the food in the restaurant, and the live music was a wonderful touch. However, we wished we had been acknowledged as hotel guests during our meal, as other guests were. The server assumed we were not staying at the hotel (despite our reservation) and dropped off the check without asking, which made us feel a bit singled out. Overall, all of the associates were extremely friendly, and the views were absolutely stunning!

The Heritage House experience is unique and being there to take in the whole property really should be the goal. The rooms are all great (been many times) and the staff super friendly and welcoming. The bedding is luxurious and the beds are “clouds!” Everything is well maintained and even the coffee is terrific!
