Blissful Sleep-cations

Mendocino County, Northern California’s crown jewel with 90+ miles of prime Pacific shoreline and a variety of inns ideally suited to this trend, offers the perfect “Sleepcation” salve.  Travelers can bed down in a luxury oceanfront ranch, huddle in an off-grid tree hut, double down in a vineyard-laced vintage Airstream or peace out at a fragrant farm.  Escaping the fast-paced urban lifestyle is the first step.  Adding a layer of amenities and surroundings conducive to the wonders of slumber divine.  

Slumber in Wonder

Who doesn’t like to clock out to the sound of crashing waves, birdsong or a true night sky without urban light pollution.  Along the Pacific, a variety of lodgings offer the ultimate turndown.  The Inn at Newport Ranch’s new Slumber in Wonder package delivers in style.  Set on 2,000-acre acres with 10 bespoke suites, including the “nest in the sky” aka The Birdhouse suite, combines a nature-driven space and ocean view to ensure travelers return rejuvenated.  To round things out, relaxing amenities such as sound bathing, guided forest bathing, a sweat lodge, Four Hands Nirvana Massage, a water tower hot tub with views to Japan and premium pillow-top beds put a new spin on hitting the hay.

Nicholson House

In the scenic village of Mendocino, the new nine-suite Nicholson House offers a fresh slant on serenity with the added plus of walking to dinner and drinks.  Step into the secluded Garden King with a private entrance, premium bedding with custom microfiber sheets, heated bathroom floors, walk-in rain shower, oversized bamboo bath sheets and luxurious twill robe for the ultimate chill down.  As the sun sets, slither next door to sister restaurant Café Beaujolais for a crispy duck confit, butter-sauteed local wild mushroom or seasonal Dungeness crab gnocchi – the ultimate shut-eye inducer.

Heavenly Hideaways

For travelers who really want a deep dive getaway, escape to the ancient redwoods of Albion for an iconic Mendocino stay via the Hideaway Tree House, or head farther south to the Elk Forest Retreat with two unique lodgings: The Water Tower and Forest Camping Hut which offer a true off-grid getaway.  

Golden Cup Wilderness Creek Dome in sunny Ukiah offers an eco-sustainable slumber. Nestled on 160 acres of natural forest, this geodesic dome with a queen bed and wood-burning stove is the ultimate calming Rx to urban life.

Farms, Barns & Vineyards

How about a sleepcation tucked deep within an apple orchard, surrounded by redwood forests featuring the ultimate stress burner:  an alfresco sauna. Set in Albion with the soft flow of ocean breezes, The Farm is the stop for slumber with wonder.  

                  Inland in Hopland, the tranquility bar just blew its mercury at The Barn. Guests can truly check in and clock out in this rustic yet well-equipped outpost sporting a new Serta 14-inch mattress and goosedown pillows.

Enjoy a sleepcation in a classic Airstream above the vines!  Overlooking Mendocino’s wine-centric Anderson Valley and Lichen Estate’s vineyard, this quiet accommodation is ideal for oenophiles on an outback stay.  

Nature's Bubble Bath

Sometimes all a good mind and body reboot requires is a long languid soak. Enter Vichy Springs Resort and Spa, a 700-acre facility boasting America’s only warm and naturally carbonated Vichy mineral baths (and Olympic-size pool), is the perfect Rx for rejuvenation.

For a throwback to old Mendocino, Orr Hot Springs is the stop.  Located next to Montgomery Woods State Park in the back country, this 27-acre bucolic escape is certain to induce shut-eye.  Delve into a secluded mineral bath, opt for two communal tubs set between 104–107 degrees or snag one of two stargazing tubs located atop the bathhouse building. 

Another slumber-inducing hideaway is an elevated converted 1872 water tower at  Sweetwater Inn & Spa. Experience a variety of classic redwood hot tubs, a cedarwood sauna and CBD massage services to soothe and set in the ultimate sleepcation.
