This Inn has amazing staff, so kind and helpful. Cleaning and room refresh was a bit difficult, had to request daily.
Breakfast is amazing- only complaint is that I would love to have fresh fruit salad daily.
The views and gardens are beautiful! The rooms a little tired and could use some repairs and refreshing. Beds were ok, new pillows would be a big plus.
The cabin is comfortable, and clean. I did not like the skylight in our room asI it woke us up early. Breakfast was included in the food was edible. The tables were very sticky. I had a broken juice glass, My husband brought it to the staffs attention and was met with hostility and rudeness. Overall, the price for the cabin, for three nights was over priced.
The room
Was spacious, warm and very cozy. The staff were so accommodating and gracious, especially their manager Mark. I would definitely stay there again!
Great Inn consisting of a number of individual “cottage” like rooms. We had a glorious view of the ocean. Good breakfast though some inconsistency in what was offered to who!
Would happily stay again.
This was our first time in Mendocino so our expectations were muted. I found Agate Cove on an online search and decided to book with them. And I’m so pleased to report that I’m so glad I did! The facility, besides the fact that it is ocean front, is immaculate including the rooms and the landscaping. Service was excellent and our room was spacious, clean and had a spectacular view of the grounds and ocean. Definitely going back!!

A great breakfast and a great view.
I love the end! The location for us was fantastic being that we walk quite a bit. The headlands are right out. Your front door and downtown is about .6 miles. The road was kind of tight but made walking doable. The service was great, and the breakfast was great. The view at breakfast can’t be beat. The only disappointment was the bathroom, especially the shower. Way overdue for a makeover. The general manager did tell us they were going to remodel it, but that didn’t do us any good. The fixtures in the shower and the tile in the shower were not up to par in fact a bit disgusting. The fixtures on the shower haven’t been changed since the 40s . Would we come back, probably but not in the topaz room. The room itself was great, but the bathroom and shower left a lot to be desired for that price.
