This is definitely an older property but that comes with some perks. The rooms are spacious and squeaky clean. There are signs of age, patches on the walls, older design but if you are just using it to sleep in who cares. The indoor pool is nice for the kids and it is right next to two resturants with more...

On behalf of our entire staff I want to thank you for staying at the Seabird Lodge and for your kind comments. Our desk staff is the best on the Mendocino Coast! I will definitely pass your "squeeky clean" comment on to the housekeepers. Glad you enjoyed the muffins--made chocolate/chocolate chip, lemon poppyseed, blueberry and bran today. See you next...

Check the prices for other motels in this town and you'll discover how inflated they are, especially for those which claim an oceanfront location where you peer into the misty distance to see the surf. This place, on the other hand, has the long-range ocean view from its upper level, but also offers outstanding rooms at a comparatively low price.... More

Thanks for the great review! It is very much appreciated when guests take the time to post reviews (especially glowing ones!). Our front desk staff (Lorie, Karen and Gage) are the best and they each do all they can to make each guest's stay a memorable one. We truly believe we have the friendliest staff of any hotel on the... More

We stayed here and found it to be a very clean, basic motel. Very inexpensive, friendly staff. Rooms had a mini fridge, microwave, coffee machine. Rooms were large compared to most motel rooms. They have a very clean indoor pool which is a large reason we chose to stay here. Home made muffins in the morning. A good place to... More

The Seabird is good value at under $100 on a weekend night right in the heart of the Northern California Coast. It has no views and the rooms are very basic. But it is located right in Fort Bragg, Calif. near the highway and an easy drive to high-priced Mendocino Village. Our room was very clean, the hosts were extremely... More

Thanks for staying at the Seabird while visiting the Mendocino Coast. We greatly appreciate your business! Yes, our housekeeping staff does a great job--I'll be sure to pass on your compliments to them. Our upstairs-west facing rooms(17 rooms) have distant ocean-views. When booking your next stay request one--we assign these rooms on a first come first serve basis. There is... More

Staff was super friendly and sweet, they had many ideas for us as far as places to eat, and sights to see. Adorable office atmosphere, very charming and inviting right off the bat. The rooms had a great view of the sea, and we were easily lulled to sleep in a very comfortable bed (i wanted to take THAT home... More

Glad you had such a nice stay. Thank you for such a nicely written review. It will be shared with our great staff (We think we have by far the friendliest staff of any inn on the Mendocino Coast!) In these tough economic times it is very difficult for small family owned businesses to survive. Your business is very much... More

I picked this place based on Tripadvisor reviews and we were not disappointed. The place is far enough from the main street (Hwy 1) that it wasn't noisy.We traveled with another couple and all of us thought it was nice. We found out that the owner also owns the Mendocino Chocolate Factory and they gave us a business card from... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and it was very good! The room is nice and the bed is not a rock but is comfy. It may not have a fireplace or any bells and whistles of others but it was perfect for a family of four to rest after a long wonderful family visit in fort bragg. The hot... More
