Cavallo Point Lodge

The entire experience was exceptional. We were clearly on the younger end of the guest list, but we had a fabulous stay. It's always a bit concerning when we as a young 30's couple of color visit a buisness frequented mostly by older white people.

My husband and I visit here yearly to either celebrate our anniversary or as a before Christmas overnight getaway. It's only 30 mins from our home but feels like we're farther away. The grounds and rooms are beautiful and worth the price and the food at Sula and Farley is delicious. Sausalito main street is only about 1.5 miles away but really, you don't need to leave the property. There's enough to enjoy from the trails, spa, fitness center or just enjoying the room.

Had a great stay at Cavallo Point. Their rooms are so cozy and the amenities are wonderful. My favorite part was morning yoga with Ingrid. She was such a great teacher and super sweet and supportive during the practice. I’ve stayed here 3 times and this is my first time taking their yoga classes. My only regret is not taking them sooner.

Cavallo Point Beautiful location and the restaurants were quite good. But… We stayed at a 2nd floor historic king. $379 per night at a discount. Looks a lot different in person than the photos. It seems to be a converted officer’s quarters, but in our opinion it was poorly decorated and depressing. The unit smelled musty, like granny’s attic. Walls were painted dark navy blue, a very stark and depressing vibe. Drapery was brown and ugly, an afterthought. The furniture was a hodgepodge of bizarre styles, nothing matched. Consistent antique style furniture would have given it better B&B vibe Would have done better to bump out the wall in the bathroom to accommodate the sink and make it a more conventional bathroom. The carpets are old and don’t match any thing. Would have been better to trash all the carpets and have solid flooring everywhere. They could have done so much better to take advantage of the charm of the old place, but their decor style was a huge miss. And the musty smell was overwhelming. We visited a more modern unit and they did much better - drab but no smell. We were part of a group booking and were able to visit other historic units to compare. They all had the same issues and all smelled. One couple changed rooms three times to get away from the smell but to no avail. In our case, housekeeping did some type of treatment I think to the carpets and the smell went away for about a day but was back the next day. Apparently this is a problem the front desk was previously aware of. There were some housekeeping issues as well. A floor mat was dirty and there were stains on the bathroom floor which housekeeping came and cleaned. On the upside, they did provide us with distilled water when requested. We feel, that except for its location and fabulous views at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge, the actual accommodations leave a lot to be desired and may not be worth the price. If you decide to stay, pick the cheaper more modern units. They could have done so much better with the historic units but they are a huge miss and not worth the money.

Great unique hotel with an amazing view, service and restaurant. If you are looking for something different with a great view of the city, pick this property.
