Modern, Ocean View Home on the Golf Course with Private Hot Tub & 2 Fireplaces
Summary:
Golden light spills through the windows as the Pacific stretches out before you. End the day in your private hot tub with the ocean as your soundtrack. A warm fire and ocean views anchor cozy evenings in. Room for 6 in this 2-bedroom home. Near the heated community pool. Sea Ranch's iconic trails, tidepools, and heated pools are all at your doorstep. Step outside and the Pacific stretches before you -- this is the Sonoma Coast at its most dramatic.
The Space:
Offering a west meadow location that faces the Pacific Ocean and backs up to the golf course, this Sea Ranch home brings streamlined, contemporary style to your next escape on the Northern California Coast. This home will welcome you from your daily walks on the Bluff Trail and rounds of oceanfront golf with two gas-powered fireplaces and a soothing private hot tub outside on the deck.
Step inside to find natural light streaming in through floor-to-ceiling windows and an ocean view living room with a plush sectional sofa, a gas fireplace set into the wall, and a mounted flatscreen TV just above. On the other side of the entry hall are a light-filled dining space, sliding doors that lead to a patio, and a modern kitchen with a bar counter, a wine fridge, and stainless steel appliances (including a large refrigerator, a dishwasher, and double ovens). The large master suite offers its own gas fireplace, a wall-mounted flatscreen TV, and a private bathroom with a jetted tub and a stall shower; both this room and the guest room enjoy direct access to the back deck and the hot tub. The third sleeping space is upstairs in the loft-style room - a perfect place to escape with a good book to enjoy views of the ocean on one side and the golf course on the other.
This ocean view home is located in the meadows on the north side of Sea Ranch, right alongside the Sea Ranch Golf Links. You'll find an access point for the incredible, oceanfront Bluff Trail just down the road and a great spot to whale watch at Gualala Point along the trail. The closest recreation center is Del Mar (one mile south), offering a heated outdoor pool, saunas, and tennis courts. You'll also be conveniently close to downtown Gualala (less than three miles up the coast), which is home to the Surf Market, Trinks Cafe, and Four-Eyed Frog Books.

As a guest, you also have access to Sea Ranch community amenities including the pools, tennis courts, fitness center, and miles of trails. A recreation pass will be provided.
The Neighborhood:
Stretching along ten miles of the Sonoma Coast, The Sea Ranch offers a rare blend of coastal wilderness and thoughtfully designed homes. Nearby highlights include community heated pool (North) (2-minute drive), Shell Beach tidepools (8-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (8-minute drive). Explore over Sea Ranch's 50 miles of trails, discover tidepools at low tide, swim in heated community pools, and end the day with dinner at The Sea Ranch Lodge. Stock up in Gualala, just 10 minutes south, where you'll find grocery stores, restaurants, a hardware store, and gas. Bodega Bay is a beautiful drive for fresh seafood.
Getting Around:
The drive from San Francisco is approximately 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, about 1.5 hours east, and rent a car. The Highway 1 drive along the coast is spectacular and worth building into your travel day.
Other Things to Note:
High-speed WiFi, and the Xbox 360 is for DVDs only.
TV has Netflix streaming only
Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.
Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.
December through April is whale season. You may spot gray whales breaching right from the bluff trail nearby. Wildflower season (April-June) transforms the coastal bluffs into a tapestry of color -- worth an extra walk on the trails. Summer offers long days and warm afternoons, though the iconic Sonoma Coast fog often rolls in at sunrise and clears by noon.

My husband and I have been coming to Sea Ranch for about 8 years. It’s a great place to relax, decompress, and take in the ocean air. It’s our first time staying at this particular house and we had a nice stay, but we did notice that the hot tub pump (we believe) went on different times of the day and night which wasn’t the greatest when you’re trying to sleep. Overall, it was a very nice house and we enjoyed our stay. We’d definitely stay again.
The home was lovely and even better than expected, and the price was very reasonable. We had a great stay overall.The only downside was some inconsistency at checkout. Two property managers gave different instructions, and one asked us to put away clean dishes and start laundry, which wasn’t included in the official checkout instructions. It felt a bit unclear and unexpected.Aside from that, everything was wonderful and we would stay there again.

Very nice place
Loved this place! It was super clean and modern, with everything we needed. Bonus points for the washer and dryer – so convenient! We even saw deer right outside the door, which was a really cool surprise. You can catch a glimpse of the ocean from the front door, which was a nice touch. Overall, a great stay!

Fantastic house!
Stayed 3 nights. Beautiful house with nice view of ocean in front. Kitchen had everything we needed including spices. BBQ on side patio. Primary bedroom and bathroom were great. Super comfortable bed and cozy fireplace. Hot tub was a bonus after long day of hiking. Would definitely rent again.
The property itself was very nice. Beware, the hot tub is just outside of the bedrooms and the motor noise can disturb your sleep. Won’t be using VRBO-Vacasa again, the fees are ridiculous! Almost 50% of the total cost comprised of:
“ Additional charges”,
Cleaning fees
Hot Tub Fees
Booking Fees
Resort Fee
Service Fee
And finally Tax
Just seems arbitrary and over the top! We will be waiting until this travel craze dies down and companies like VRBO won’t be able to get away with these practices. Consumers have to start saying NO!

Amazing House and Location; Terrible Check-in
The house and location are spectacular and just as advertised. However, the check in process was awful. I was given the code but it did not work. It was pouring rain and there was no reception. Once I was able to get in contact with Vacasa, they offered no help and insisted the code was correct. They accused me of being at the wrong house. After getting in contact with the local team, they admitted the code was incorrect. We spent in an hour in the rain trying to get in. After I was able to get in the house, I asked how they could remedy the awful experience and wasting out time with wrong information. The communication went dark and I have gotten no response. Aside from the check-in fiasco, the house and location are absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you faced during the check-in process, especially in such challenging weather conditions. Your feedback is invaluable, and we understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with an incorrect code and lack of communication. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the house and its location, but we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the check-in issues. We will escalate your concerns to our local team to ensure that this situation is addressed and that we improve our processes moving forward. Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future under better circumstances.
Beautiful, well stocked and lovely home…. An additional half bath for common use would have been ideal but would stay again any time

Beautiful home - perhaps not for senior citizens
Modern Sea 2 Links is beautiful and well appointed home. However - the homeowners request no shoes be worn in the home, which I do understand. Additionally, there is a small step down into the dining and kitchen area that can be hard to distinguish for some. These two items can be a challenge for seniors. Just something to be aware of.

Great spot!
This place is great. It has a really well appointed kitchen, is super clean, comfortable and redone. The only thing not updated is the primary bath, but it's very clean and functional. It has a beautiful view of the ocean over the meadow and the proximity to the golf course was great for my husband and girls. We had a great time, will be back. Lots of separation between the two bedrooms. A really well laid out and stocked spot. We've been to Sea Ranch over a dozen times, this was our fav spot yet.

Great stay
Beautiful house. Fully stocked kitchen. Living room couch too soft & sinks to floor. Hard to get up from. Lovely views from upstairs bedroom if meadow on one side & ocean on other.
We had a wonderful few days at this rental. It was just as described and had everything we could have needed. The house was clean, modern and comfortable. The fireplaces were nice, convenient and quite toasty. The kitchen and grill were great and the hot tub under the stars was a wonderful, relaxing way to end the evenings. We have stayed at a number of Sea Ranch rentals and this is one we can't wait to do again.

Fabulous House with a Great View
You won't be disappointed renting this house. It has gorgeous views and is well equipped. The one down side is Vacasa Rental Agency. They are unyielding with zero flexibility. The fireplace quit working after day #2 and was never repaired, after a week stay. The check in time of 4pm is tolerable IF the check out time was 11am or Noon. Disappointed with Vacasa. Frustrating to rent through VRBO and only find Vacasa homes at The Sea Ranch.

Perfect Week Away!
This was the perfect house for our family of 6 to get away for a week. The house was very clean (something super important to us because we have little kids who still roll around on the floor!). Perfect location with a short walk to the ocean trails. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen wonderfully stocked with any cooking utensil needed. We can’t wait to stay here again.
