BytheSea Bluff Retreat – Ocean Views & Coastal Trails

Perched above the Pacific in Moss Beach, BytheSea Bluff Retreat offers sweeping views of the ocean, the Santa Cruz Mountains, the Half Moon Bay coastline, and Pillar Point Harbor. From breathtaking sunsets to sightings of whales and seabirds, every moment here is touched by the beauty of the coast. The BytheSea Bluff Retreat blends modern comfort with coastal charm, featuring a fully equipped kitchen with a warming drawer, a luxurious soaking tub, and bathrooms with heated floors for added relaxation. An extra refrigerator and wine cabinet in the garage provide convenience for longer stays, while outdoor seating with a firepit creates the perfect space to gather under the stars. Set in a safe and quiet neighborhood, the retreat is designed for both comfort and ease, making it an ideal place to unwind after exploring the Northern California coast.

Step outside and walk to the California Coastal Trail, Fitzgerald Marine Reserve, and nearby open-space preserves for hiking and biking. Head north to Half Moon Bay Harbor for kayaking, sailing, and waterfront dining, or venture south to the Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay for golf or brunch overlooking the bluffs.

When it’s time to unwind, stroll to the historic Moss Beach Distillery, where oceanfront patio seating, firepits, and blankets create the perfect setting for lunch or dinner. A short drive brings you to Downtown Half Moon Bay, charming Pescadero, Harley Farms, and award-winning coastal restaurants.

With convenient access to San Francisco International Airport, Stanford University, and Silicon Valley, this retreat is ideal for both relaxing getaways and extended stays. Thoughtfully designed with modern comforts, BytheSea Bluff Retreat invites you to relax, explore, and experience the best of the Northern California coast.
