I first stayed at the Lighthouse Inn at Point Cabrillo in May 2007, not all that long after they opened as a B&B (see my original review dated May 7, 2007 “Go to the Lighthouse--it’s a keeper”). My most recent stay of 2 nights this past week was very nearly as enjoyable an experience as the initial one. This time... more

My husband and I stayed at the Lighthouse in for one night in September 2008 for our anniversary. Overall it was a really nice stay. The Inn is about a 5 to 10 minute drive from the main town of Mendocino, located inside a nature preserve whose main attraction is the lighthouse. It's quite shocking to me that people would... more

We stayed in one of the cottages for 2 nights. The bathroom was a nice size w/huge shower (wheelchair accessible) & the room was bigger than most in the main inn. It's also more private. Breakfast was good but you do have to be a fan of eating @ 9am on a communal table w/other guests, of which we're not.... more

We loved the remote location and the quiet nights. There was time for a leisurely walk along the bluffs with coffee in the morning before breakfast - which was outstanding. Jim, the inn keeper, was a wealth of knowledge on the history of the lighthouse and lightkeepers house. If you are looking for peace and quiet and a place to... more

Great views, solitude, great gourmet breakfasts. Very expensive overall, in our opinion, but worth it. During the day, you will encounter loads of people walking down the road and around the grounds. It's not that peaceful at all, frankly, during the day. We counted approximately 200 people there at one time on a weekend day. This is fine, but makes... more

When you drive past the "Private, Handicapped access only" sign and down the longish 1/2 - 1 mile road to the Lighthouse Inn B&B, look to your left and right into the fields and perhaps you'll spot one (or a few) of the deer or wild turkeys that live on the grounds. As you walk into the building (it's the... more

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Lighthouse Inn. We were more than pleasantly surprised by the quality of the experience including the beautifully decorated rooms, very comfortable bed, excellent lighting in the rooms, convenient local restaurant information in the rooms, great shower, delicious breakfast in the morning, wine and cheese in the evening and the best... more

The Lighthouse Inn at Point Cabrillo is perfect. First, this BB is located in a 300 acre nature preserve with an unbelievable view of the Pacific Ocean. Secondly, you will stay in a meticulously restored historic light house keeper's home. Third, the host Jim Kimbrell will share the passion of the Light keeper's Association, which is dedicated to the preservation... more

It was simply perfect in all aspects. We met the lady who looked after the B&B, we met the cook and the young lady who cleaned. All were so frinedly and helpful. The position is romantic, relaxing and every other superlaitive you can think of. It is impeccably clean, friendly and the breakfast was superb. Without doubt it was our... more
