Beach Front Dream House! Hottub/E-Bikes/Surfboards
we loved staying here! everything was in excellent condition and looked exactly like the photos, plus you can’t beat the location! the beach was right across the street and walking distance to coffee, shops, food, etc. evan was super responsive and gave very clear, easy to follow instructions for check-in and check-out. highly recommend for your next beach trip!! ☀️

Casa Del Mar, Spectacular Ocean Views!
My husband Josh and I had an unforgettable time at Cindi’s place in Sea Ranch. The home was even more beautiful than the photos—unique architecture, cozy design, and right on the beach. Every evening we watched the waves crash on the rocks just outside the window. It was peaceful, stunning, and truly magical. Cindi was a fantastic host, super helpful and kind. We’re already dreaming of coming back!

Argonautica: Oceanfront Sea Ranch Escape
We had such a wonderful and relaxing time at Jason’s house. The views were amazing and the location is the best we’ve stayed in at Sea Ranch. The path to the bluff trail was right next to the house and just a short walk you get to amazing tide pools (my daughter and I woke up early to make it at low tide!) and really the best pacific coast views. Jason’s house was immaculate and we really appreciated how complete the kitchen was!! And the blue bottle and intelligentsia coffee beans were a great treat. The hot tub was also great to use after swimming in the rec center. Thank you Jason!!

Bodega Bay-Magical Ocean Front and Coastal View!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Deja Blu. The location is perfection! Private, with beautiful gardens, only a hop, skip and a jump from the ocean. Falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves at night was divine. The home was clean and comfortable, and Barr was a lovely, helpful host. If you are looking to unwind in serenity, I highly recommend this home.

Tomales Bay: Tranquility, Bay Views, Kayaks &
This was our second stay at BayMod, and we're already excited to come back again. It's a stunning location, right on the bay, with kayaks and all the accessories you'd need (like lifejackets in many sizes). We saw seals, bat rays, and lots of other wildlife when we went out in the morning. We love going to Nick's Cove for lunch and outdoor games (you could even kayak there), to Route One Bakery for breakfast and coffee, and down to Point Reyes Station for shops, restaurants, and groceries. The house is impeccably organized (the most well-organized Airbnb I've ever seen) with helpful instructions and just everything you might think of. Example: lying on the couch looking out the window and feeling a bit cold? There is a bin of throw blankets within arm's reach. Trying to see what's on Hog Island right now? There are binoculars, plus a powerful monocular with a phone mount. This thoughtfulness extends to all aspects of the house. It's beautiful, clean, and cozy. Thank you Deb!

❤️Pebble Palace! OCEANFRONT! HOT TUB! WOW VIEWS!❤️
We really enjoyed our stay in Mendocino at Tracy's! The ocean view from the living room, kitchen, and the primary bedroom made for a wonderful experience. The house was really clean and comfortable. Great kitchen to cook together with our family. Would recommend staying if you're looking for a beautiful Airbnb along the coast to relax with your family. We didn't have much cell service along the coast / the 1 so recommend pre-loading your check-in instructions!

Bleu Bay Cottage
My wife and I stayed here for our 5 year anniversary and I couldn't have found a better spot to get away to. It was such a cozy and peaceful location, and Aaron's home had everything we could ever need during our stay. The views were incredible, and the weather was fantastic. Aaron provided an extremely detailed guide to the area that helped us get a feel for where to go and what to do, and we hope to come back someday and stay again to experience more of the beauty of the surrounding area!

Oceanfront French Cottage in Pacifica, SFO
We had a very nice stay with our kids in Pacifica. The place was very clean and everything in the kitchen was well labeled. The view from the place was beautiful. Each day we were able to see whales. Our kids loved walking down to the beach, that was close by. So many trails to hike on in the area. The host was very responsive.

Monterey Bay Oasis on the Ocean!
Love this place! Will definitely come back!

A Slice of Heaven in The Sea Ranch
Anu’s house in the Sea Ranch was perfect for our group. So easy to walk to the bluff trail, well equipped kitchen and gorgeous views of the stars from the hot tub and decks at night. We also really enjoyed the ocean view from the master bedroom and sitting in the sun on the front deck.

Relax Watch Waves Crash Chic + Modern 3BD
The decor was delightful! Very well outfitted with everything you need.beds super comfy. Really good size. We had more than enough room. I appreciate that Crystal saw no issue with my service dog joining us. I was a bit disappointed that you had to be on the balcony to see the beach. There was a complex in the front blocking most of the view from indoors. I also had issue with parking. The garage was only for small cars and the street parking was inconsistent and required several steps. My handicapped daughter found it a bit difficult. The area was not easily walked being on a very very steep hill. I wish there were more info in the description. All in all, it was a gorgeous place and really clean, highly recommend for non handicapped folks.

The Bluffs at Sea Ranch - Expansive Ocean Views
We enjoyed our time at The Bluffs last week. It's a wonderful, cozy and comfortable place to spend time unwinding. Great ocean views. We liked the convenience of taking the walking trail in front of the house which leads out to the bluff trail. The kitchen has everything you might need for cooking meals: pots, pans, utensils, coffee machine, microwave, toaster, etc. Quiet and peaceful area with deer and other wildlife. We recommend picking up a map of Sea Ranch area at the association office if you want to explore the beaches and trails more. John was very prompt with any questions we had about the house. We look forward to returning again. - Liz

Seaward Bliss ★ (Private Hillside Retreat)
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay during our time on the coast. This home is absolutely incredible-- breathtaking views, gorgeous decor, large kitchen with ample cookware, amazing deck, CLEAN, comfortable beds, fantastic location. Sea Ranch itself is a wonderful place for those seeking a quiet & peaceful area surrounded by awe-inspiring natural beauty. Pauline is an excellent host with great communication who went above & beyond to ensure we had a great stay. I highly recommend Seaward Bliss, and I can't wait to return again one day!

Oceanfront Retreat w/Private HotTub
It was beautiful, private, and a hidden gem! We had lots of fun and enjoyed all the views throughout the house. The house is even better than the pictures. We had our 2 boys, had plenty to do between the beach, books, basketball, spa, ping pong, and games! We definitely recommend and would go back! Not to mention I love artichokes and this house is located in artichoke city!! So amazing!! 10/10 you won’t be disappointed!

Heron House on The Sea Ranch
Wonderful space for 5 friends, a dog and a baby! Gorgeous ocean view, right next to trails, and close to town. Kitchen was well-equipped for cooking on nights in. Main bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, and the sofa bed easily accommodated a single person. Would definitely stay again!

SeaHorse Retreat: ocean views, tall trees, privacy
Our stay was lovely, can’t wait to return! Jeff was an exceptional host—attentive, helpful, and went above and beyond to make our experience special. The location was perfect, perched on a hill and nestled against the woods, yet facing the ocean, offering breathtaking views. It was the perfect balance of serenity and stunning scenery. Highly recommend!

Water’s Edge - Ocean Views, Private Hot Tub
I stayed here with my wife and 15 month old daughter. It was a perfect getaway for our family, located right off PCH with easy access to local beaches and restaurants. The home was very well appointed with everything we could need including kitchenware as well as toys for our developing toddler. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. You can’t beat the view from the hot tub!

The Beach House
Natalie's home is the absolute perfect place to stay in Bodega Bay. It's close to local restaurants, trails and the Lodge at Bodega if the spa, pool or dinner at Drakes is on your agenda! My husband and I both agree she truly has the best property in town, offering amazing views, close access to the beach and this location is easily commutable for day trips to Russian River Valley vineyards/wineries. As a plus, she provides a book on property that includes restaurant menus, top attractions in the area and every instruction you may need as it relates to the property. Kitchen is well stocked for those wanting to source their own fish at the local fish market and enjoy a meal at home. Our time here was magical!

Oceanfront Vacation Home On The Mendocino Coast
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was clean, very comfortable, with a great view, wood burning fireplace we were allowed to use, comfortable beds, and a hot tub. The kitchen was extremely well appointed with everything we needed to fix meals, including a comprehensive spice rack.

Paradise Found :EV Charger,ONLY ONE PET allowed.
Really enjoyed the location and the enclosed patio so we could sit outside and enjoy the ocean view keeping out of the wind. Lots of things to do in the area if you like hiking and exploring.

Newly Remodeled Coastal Retreat
Excellent host, simple and clean property. Beautiful decor. Open floor plan and an updated kitchen with Bosch Stove, Smeg Fridge and Breville coffee maker. Outdoor Sauna was a great way to start the day. Very peaceful. Bed was very comfortable with simple and soft white linens. Bathroom was very clean and nicely designed. Space felt new and fresh. The property was very thought out and family friendly with perfect amenities.

Dillon Beach Nirvana
The home was beautiful, we truly enjoyed our time there. They say that pictures are worth a thousand words but pictures of the views from the multiple balconies are unable to capture how stunning they really are. The home was just as listed, clean and was the most stocked home we have visited. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas and made unforgettable memories.

Serene luxury beach bungalow in Pleasure Point
This beach bungalow is fabulous ! The home is clean, comfortable and has all the amenities needed for a relaxing getaway! The outdoor patio is a bonus living room! The location has a nice ocean view and easy access to walks along the beach. Heather is a great host! The recommendations provided are very helpful and spot on! Will definitely book this wonderful gem for our next visit to Santa Cruz!

Sea View Sanctuary Hot Tub, Sauna, on sunny acres.
This house is wonderful. It is sooo relaxing. The hot tub was phenomenal. The beds were very comfortable. Coming from a busy suburb the view of the night sky was breathtaking. We were able to see the milky way! My son gave the house a million out of 5 stars and I agree! Gabriel is a very communicative and helpful host. He gave us great recommendations for the area.
