    Exceeded our expectations

    June 24, 2012

    This was our 36'th wedding anniversary vacation and the beautiful B&B exceeded our expectations, accross the board. Scenic, quiet, amazing gardens, scrumptous breakfast and friendly service and hospitality. The foot path directly down to the beach was terrific as well as the view from our private balcony at the Seabreeze room on the 2'nd floor. We will have to come back.

    The best of Mendocino (and beyond)!

    January 06, 2011

    We've been frequent visitors to Mendocino for the past 13 years and have stayed in many of the B&Bs,all of which are good, a few even great, but Alegria is in its own class. Eric, Elaine and Toni are miracle workers; every little detail is attended to, the place is super clean and cozy and the location, with the private path to the beach, can't be beat. We keep coming back and telling our friends. Alegria is so great that it ruined us; we wouldn't ever stay anywhere else. :)

    Great place but a bit overpriced

    October 21, 2010

    We have stayed at the Allegra multiple times over the last 5 years, and while we enjoy it, the 'excellence' has decreased a bit. Especially the trail to the beach and the rising cost. Next time we will try another place (to our disappointment). If you want an ocean view, a great breakfast and good cookies, it's a great place.

    August 10, 2010

    This was the place to get engaged to the woman I love. Eric and Elaine were great host and make sure your stay is great from the cookies to the breakfast to the views just awesome. My cottage was just perfect from the flowers to the balloons to the basket just an awesome weekend get-away. Can't say enough about the place

    Great Place

    September 05, 2009

    The staff at Algeria is very personable and accomadating. Superb breakfast, and they are willing to make changes to meet your personal desires. The rooms are quaint, but spacious and quiet. A great place to stay.

    A Great Place to stay

    May 31, 2009

    For a very relaxing, comfortable and warm place to stay in Mendocino this is it. We come here every year for our anniversary and wouldn't think of staying anywhere else. The entire staff is excellent and breakfast every morning is wonderful.
