This is our new favorite place to stay at Sea Ranch. The few is fantastic-- just steps from the ocean. The tidepools in your 'front yard' are perfect for kids and the property itself is clean, well maintained and very comfortable.
This is a beautiful house in a great location with a fantastic view of the ocean. It was easy to access and get The Sea Ranch papers. It was very clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen, bedroom and bath. This was our first trip to The Sea Ranch and I imagine all properties are quiet and private, this was too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and would definitely like to return again someday. Bob and Linda
Great oceanfront location, nice layout, well equipped. Lacks cable TV.
Amazing views even in 2 of the 3 bedrooms. Very well stocked kitchen, hiking trails right outside. A perfect week away with friends and our dog. We’re already planning our return!
Wonderful location and property. Everything worked. Everything was clean. Would stay again. The only downside is driving 6 miles away to check in and return the keys.
This is a great home and location. Great views from all rooms. This is the best stocked rental home ever! Adult and pup seals were visible from a few hundred feet down the trail in front of the house. And more seals seen the next beach north still on the Sea Ranch Property. It would be better if I didn't have to go to the office to pick up and drop off the keys. Overall we had a great time and hope to return
What a fantastic house - beautiful location, clean house, comfortable beds, nice linens, thick towels, a kitchen with everything you need and plenty of plates, cups, glasses, etc. In short, we did not have a single complaint about this house and would love to go back. What a shame, then, that in order to rent this lovely home, one has to deal with the severely-lacking-in-customer-service folks at Grand Welcome. The clunky check in and out process that forces you to drive an extra 20 minutes to pick up and drop off keys. The terse conversations with staff when requesting information. And the somewhat convoluted and contradictory instructions received via email and with the keys. It all took something away from a lovely stay.
This property is everything you want from a relaxing stunningly beautiful natural retreat. We will definitely be coming back!
This was a very disappointing house to rent for my family for Thanksgiving. We paid nearly $1500/night. It was GROSSLY OVERPRICED!! Check in process was a fail, house has no hot tub, no cable, no gas grill, no lounge chairs to enjoy the view, no dish towels…the condition of the home overall is very poor. The only redeeming grace of this home is the magnificent location. Really pathetic. Will never rent this home again.
The views are unparalleled! Other reasons to love this home: it was easy to heat and keep cozy or cool down, the beds were great, the bathrooms and kitchen worked well, and the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and many utensils. As others have noted, it's a slight extra hassle to go up to Gualala to pick up and drop off keys - unclear why rentals are set up this way. But an exceptional experience otherwise.
