Mendocino Coast

A Nature-Inspired Wellness Retreat on the Mendocino Coast

Set on a hillside overlooking the Mendocino Coast, Stanford Inn by the Sea is a pioneering eco-resort where wellness, sustainability, and a deep connection to nature enrich the guest experience. Organic gardens supply the ingredients for Ravens Restaurant’s acclaimed plant-based cuisine. Daily yoga, meditation, and wellness classes invite guests to slow down, reconnect, and embrace the inn’s restorative pace. Spend the day kayaking on Big River’s peaceful estuary, exploring nearby redwood trails, or unwinding with a massage in the forest before returning to a cozy room with a wood-burning fireplace.
