Beautiful view, house, and town!
Lovely older home that was superbly redone! The house is quite literally on a cliff, with killer views of the ocean. Even though it rained torrentially for our stay, we still had a great time just hanging out! My only complaint is that I really wanted to swim at Sea Ranch pools, and I did ask if I could get passes or pay extra. Unfortunately, I did not receive a reply until we were already there. I guess you have to rent a home within the Sea Ranch development itself, to use their pools, etc. Oh well
