Stanford Inn by the Sea

The Stanford Inn by the Sea sits atop a meadow above Mendocino Bay, surrounded by organic gardens that supply the on-site Ravens' Restaurant — one of the most acclaimed vegan restaurants in the US. The resort is entirely plant-based: food, spa products, and ethos. Guests enjoy an indoor saltwater pool, sauna, hot tub, free canoe and kayak access to Big River, and the wild beauty of the Northern California coast. A working farm with llamas, horses, and a large certified-organic garden makes this a living model of sustainable hospitality.
