Beautiful view

Cabin is very clean, spacious bedrooms, and a beautiful view. Only thing missing was the remote to the living room tv, but with the view, didn’t really matter! Nice back yard, deer and a raccoon visited next door while we enjoyed the hot tub! Very quiet street. Overall, a great place!

Overall very nice. The rocking chairs in the living room were not very accommodating for older folks. Curtains in the living room/dining area would be nice. Slept well, lots of sleeping space. When we were leaving, a kind security guard helped jump one of our cars. Thank you! The family enjoyed themselves immensely, thank you very much!

Family Fun

Our family enjoyed a lovely weekend at this Dillion beach home. Location is perfect for taking morning strolls on the beach and walking distance to the market. We thoroughly enjoyed this home with its comfortable and well appointed living areas and backyard with wood laid out in the firepit and inviting hot tub. Great place to stay if you’re considering a Dillon beach vacation.

The view says it all

If you are familiar with Dillon Beach you will love this house. I was surprised how easy the access to the beach was give the location of this property. A short walk down the road leads to a trail that lands you on the beach in less than 5 minutes from the door. And if you didn’t get enough of the ocean the view from the living room includes plenty of the pacific and Bodega Head. Plenty of sleeping space for our party of 6 adults, two kids, and a baby.

Perfect family get away

Darling inside and out! Perfect location, short walk to trail that leads to the beach or you can just enjoy the view from the dining room table. Love that it is mainly single story except a few bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. Well equipped, comfy beds, plenty of towels. We will be back for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Jenn Fay

Host profile image
Jenn grew up in San Francisco and Ryan grew up in Pittsburgh, PA moved to SF in his early 20s. We currently reside in Marin County with our son and two English Bulldogs. Ryan grew up watching surf and skate videos from California and always dreamed of having a CA beach house. Jenn, a born and raised city girl fell in love with the natural beauty and serenity of Dillon Beach.

Why they chose this property

It is a quintessential California Beach House built in 1968 by the developer of the community. We love that the home has history and character. The developer picked the location for the views, the stability of the land, and the 100+-year-old cypress tree that shades the property. The backyard is large and private which we love and additionally, the front porches are great for morning coffee, afternoon wine, and gorgeous sunsets.

The floorplan is efficient and open yet provides plenty of room for sleep and allowing everyone to have their own space. This makes the property great for groups.

This is the best location in Dillon Beach because you are a 1-minute walk to the beach path. Unlike the crowded town with no parking or the properties on the hill that get caught in the fog and are not walkable to the beach or town. Whale Tail Bahay is accessible to town and the beach on foot, plus it has parking for 4 cars. Once you arrive you don't have to get back in your car until you leave.

And the unobstructed views are spectacular!

What makes this property unique
