We enjoyed our stay for a long weekend and found the house to be well isolated, despite nearby neighbors, and easy access to groceries and beaches.

View is outstanding! One of the bathrooms is in poor shape with tub peeling and the bed has major sagging. It sounds like there are mice in the walls or in the ducts. Kitchen is in good shape.

The views were as advertised. Spectacular. The Jacuzzi was in fine working order. Bathrooms were clean. The biggest negative was the second bedroom bed was not suitable for 2 people as the mattress was too soft and caved into the middle when 2 people tried to sleep. It was only usable for 1 person, the the other person had to use the couch. Jody from the management company was very responsive to our request to bring a starter for the stove and bbq.

If you want an incredible view, high ceilings, and a hot tub, this is the place! It was spacious and clean. No, the house isn't ready for an Architectural Digest photo shoot - but that isn't its purpose. It is a vacation rental. So, there are some aesthetics that could be improved but the main thing is that it is functional. And the views are stunning. The deck is huge, and the hot tub was clean and enjoyable. The beds were comfortable and just right (not too firm, not too hard). I have made just a few suggestions to the property management. I would probably give it a 4.5 since there were a few things that need to be fixed. But we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Gualala Beach House

If you are looking for a relaxing, get a way. this property is perfect. The house is beautiful, location couldn't have been better and Vacasa was very helpful. This spot is perfect for star gazing and just watching the water and listening to the waves crash. Definitely recommend.

We loved the spacious home and the fantastic views. With the windows open, it was so peaceful to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the ocean. Ugh! We loved it and hated having to come back to our regular lives!

Best ocean side experience

The home is well situated on the Cliff to enjoy the ocean slapping against the rocks and shore! We celebrated our Anniversary and will definitely return to experience more. The home is loaded with well insulated windows and many sliding glass doors. The deck wraps around the entire ocean view with a jacuzzi situated just outside the master bedroom 💜

Disappointed

Although the views and privacy were excellent, the property itself is in need of care and attention to many details. This is not a luxury or high end property, but has high end pricing.

What a view!

The views in this rental home are wonderful! So serene. As far as this home itself, it is a great layout for a couple with views from both bedrooms. The home has nice granite counters throughout. There is highway noise, but it is often covered up by the sound of the waves from the sea. It is disappointing that after so many reviewers have complained about the current shape that the home is in, stained carpet, cabinet doors missing, etc., nothing has been improved in years. I would love to return to this home if the owners make improvements. But until then I would not recommend this home to a friend or family.

Amazing views, house needs work

My husband and I have been going to the Beach House (as it was once known) for many years and have many great memories there. Same quiet, private setting and those amazing views. It used to be so well kept but sadly the house has seen much wear and tear over the years - many things that could and should be repaired or replaced especially given the cost to stay there. It definitely takes away from the whole experience. I had recommended it to friends in the past, but wouldn't do so again, and it's unlikely I would stay there again.

Stunning location

Gorgeous house on a cliff directly upon the ocean. Stunning, open views and very, very private. 5 minute drive to Gualala and the Surf Market. Beautiful kitchen but needs some new kitchen knives and more bowls for families that like to cook at home instead of eating out each meal. There is plenty of new, comfortable patio furniture to sit and enjoy watching the ocean, birds and many whales. We’ve rented many houses along the north coast and I highly recommend this home. We will definitely be returning in the future!

Gualala Relaxation

The rental house is located in a great location, just 1.5 miles north of Gualala. Easy to get any type of food provision in town. The house has a fantastic view of the ocean, lots and lots of windows facing the sea. The house can use some maintenance and they need more outdoor chairs (only two). The kitchen has many of the basic utensils and pots. Good internet connectivity and the TV has many apps available. We would return.

Beautiful location and beautiful home

Pros: - Amazing location - Beautiful home with a deck that wraps around the backside of the home. - Hot tub - Clean - Comfortable furniture Cons: - Microwave doesn't work most of the time (seems like the motor is dying) - While front of the house has beautiful massive windows, it really should have shades. I don't like at night that everyone driving by can see inside the home, and during the day, the sun significantly heats the house. Shades on those windows would be fantastic.
