Grounds are beautiful. Almost every room has a fairly open view of the ocean. There are plenty of chairs spread around the grounds for relaxing with a glass of wine. The rooms are tastefully done and have very comfortable beds and linens. The restaurant attached to the property has a somewhat limited menu but everything we got tested great. Hope to come back again someday!

We had a very bad stay the cottage was very poor quality, no telephone, no closets, had to put our clothes on the sofa. Bathroom was tiny and sink did not work, had to use the kitchen sink. I have taken a video and would like to post it. We were unprepared for such a bad facility. It was supposed to be the ultimate in luxury and it was just the opposite. It was a log cabin and we paid $800 a night for it. Please have someone call me as I’d like to get my money back.

The location is to die for! So beautiful, clinging to the cliffs. Our room had a wonderful ocean view. The included breakfast was delicious, fresh. The room was well stocked with coffee (reg and decaf) and creamer. Our room had a large spa tub, overlooking the ocean, a wonderful spa shower, heated floors, confortable bed. The room was clean, the linens plush, the soaps smelled so good, and the view was unblievable. The only reason I did not give it "5" for everything is the spa. We made arrangements, had a confirmation and a calendar invitation for services. When we showed up, my service had been "cancelled" and my husbands was never even on the books. It was disappointing. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it... just don't make arrangements for the spa online!

Same time next year.

The Pacific coast is one of the most beautiful places in the world and The Heritage House allows you to experience all of it’s beauty. We not only enjoyed our walks around the property with our dog but enjoyed being so close to many hikes, be it on the beach or in the Redwoods. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfasts were very good.

This is by far one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. You cannot beat this view and it's dog friendly. Our dog Louie absolutely loved it. We spent the whole day walking around the property, looking at the ocean and staring at the sky. The service and hospitality are really great. Can't wait to come back. Also, thank you for the upgrade!!!! Wow

This is a gorgeous property, overlooking one of the most scenic spots along the Mendocino coast. The rooms are cozy and romantic, and our sunset room had the most incredible deck with a view over the ocean. They went above and beyond in a busy holiday weekend, we had to split the stay over 2 different rooms since there was no availability of the same room for all days at time of booking; however once on the property they managed to let us stay in the same room without having to check out and back in in the new room. One minor thing, they used to have a la carte breakfast, now they switched to a buffet which is overall ok, but for a place of this level I'd prefer a more elevated experience with made to order dishes. Also the restaurant was sadly closed for lunch.
