Located on the shores of San Francisco Bay and nestled behind the Golden Gate Bridge is a wonderful hotel that blends Victorian sensibility and contemporary style. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Casa Madrona Hotel & Spa is a well situated getaway that caters to both tourists and locals alike.
Well positioned on Sausalito’s main road, Bridgeway, Casa Madrona offers easy access to downtown Sausalito and its ferry terminal. This allows for quick access to a variety of locations both in the Marin Headlands, as well as downtown San Francisco (by ferry). If you’re feeling adventurous, you can also venture over to nearby Angel Island for a hike and picnic!
Casa Madrona itself offers exceptional hospitality in an intimate and luxurious environment that’s hard to leave – even with attractions like the Marin Headlands and Muir Woods just minutes away!
The views of San Francisco Bay that come with nearly every room leave you with a sense of calmness and serenity. From your window, balcony or terrace, you can watch sea planes taking off, fishing boats going out and yachts sailing about.
I was lucky enough to stay in The Mansion Suite – a wonderful bedroom and living room in the old Mansion, complete with its own terrace overlooking The Bay. It was quite a room with quite a comfy bed! I could have stayed there forever!
If you’re looking to hang out for a while, consider ordering the hotel’s Spritz Kit. This little combo allows you to put together an Aperol Spritz from the comfort of your room. Savor the sights and sounds of Sausalito all with a Spritz in your hand!
If you’re looking for a bit of TLC, there’s also a spa onsite. If it’s food you’re after, check out Poggio downstairs. It’s a great Italian restaurant with a fantastic set of dishes to satisfy your palette. May I suggest the Florentine steak?
Overall, if you’re looking for a getaway on The Bay, look no further than Casa Madrona in Sausalito! It combines convenience, class and calmness with grace!
