Favorite!
We have been visiting Sea Ranch for 25 years. This house was one of my favorites! The number of windows was amazing. Views from everywhere and you could open many to let in the ocean breeze. The interior was so tastefully decorated making it feel warm and cozy. Both beds were comfortable. The kitchen was easy to work in. Diane, thank you so much for sharing your home!❤️

Serene getaway at Sea Ranch
This home is stunning and exceeded our expectations. Views are amazing from the home and the walk to the cliff is perhaps 2 minutes and the beach just a few minutes more. The area is serene and at most you see a few joggers or a couple other people hiking. The office was a perfect place to take a few morning calls before a lovely breakfast on the beach. We didn’t cook a full meal (we picked up chowder and crab sandwiches in Bodega Bay to bring up with us), but the kitchen was well appointed with quality dishes (no plastic) and everything we would have needed to cook. Gualala just a few minutes up the coast is a cute little town with a few restaurants and shops. I highly recommend getting a massage at Healing Arts. Amazing! The primary bedroom’s mattress was super comfy. The house was immaculate. I would definitely choose this property again if just traveling with my spouse. Do read the posting carefully as this is an open concept home so I would not recommend for 2 couples. Diane (the host) is very quick to communicate which is so appreciated!

Gorgeous home in beautiful spot
Stunning home with partial ocean view, with impressive, open-air architecture. 3 minute walk to the bluff trail, and 2.5 miles from the cute beach town of Gualala, where you'll find galleries and restaurants. The bluff trail doesn't disappoint. Great amenities, fully stocked kitchen, furnace that heats the place up in no time. Didn't try the hot tub, but there's a Jacuzzi-like bathtub in the bathroom. The 3rd floor has a small outdoor patio and a small room with a picture window, perfect for watching the sunset. Couple of gotchas: the bedrooms, although lovely, comfy, and with great views, have no doors, and the black-out shades don't really block out the light, so bring a sleeping mask. The internet is spotty unless you're in the office. The bedrooms are on the 2nd floor and the staircase is slightly steep, so keep that in mind for the climbing-impaired. That said, it was altogether a delightful stay with a gracious host.

Very well located, beautifully furnished home with an excellent and well stocked kitchen. We had a lovely 4 night stay. Beds are extremely comfortable, but one should be aware that the style of the home is very open plan, so though the bedrooms are at opposite ends of a hall on the upper floor, there are no doors to close for total privacy.

Beautiful location, only go with folks you're comfy with :)
We had a great visit! Well stocked kitchen, lovely patio, beautiful views. The only comment we had is that this is a fairly door-free home. No doors on the bedrooms, no doors enclosing the bathroom upstairs, no shower curtain, and an outhouse-like door on the bathroom downstairs means that there's not much room for privacy. So if you're traveling with others, make sure you're close!

Very much appreciated the architectural details in the home and the furnishings all very comfortable. Cooking a full meal was a bit challenging because there wasn't a set of measuring spoons, or liquid measuring cups. Could use something other than just paper towels to wipe countertops-perhaps some microfiber rags? There were excellent stove top pans and lovely dishes. Older adults might find stairs to bedrooms a bit challenging. Despite this, we enjoyed our stay very much. It is truly a beautiful home!!

Coastal luxury!
This home is absolutely breathtaking. First off, it's quite expansive. There are views from every room. The main bedroom with ocean views was a treat to wake up to. Nice sun room on top which is great for whale watching. The kitchen is spacious and modern, which made cooking a pleasurable activity. And a private hot tub under the stars on a clear night was an unbeatable experience. Lots of coastal hiking to be had nearby. Our stay wasn't long enough!

The design, construction and decor were really amazing. Convenient location with access to the Bluff Trail and the nearby recreation center. We loved hiking the Bluff Trail, exploring the neighborhood on our bicycles and sunset walks to the beach. Really a fun time for our first visit to Sea Ranch. We would love to come back in the future for a longer stay!

Perfect retreat to Sea Ranch
Stunning design interior classic sea ranch exterior. Place was extremely clean and well stocked with everything we needed to cook. Using the guest passes to reserve tennis time was a breeze. As noted in other reviews the bedrooms don't have doors, which wasn't a problem for us, but might be for others. We wouldn't hesitate to come back

Wonderful stay
A beautifully designed house, one of the most memorable we've stayed at in many stays at Sea Ranch. Easy walk to the bluff and one of the reserves where, in early April, we saw migrating whales and seals hanging out on the rocks. Perfect for two, but we did fine with four for a night. Would definitely rebook.
