Summary:
Open the door to panoramic Pacific views that follow you from the kitchen through the dining room to the deck. Three bedrooms and three baths sleep 8 in this Gualala oceanfront home with a Viking gas range and a separate TV room. St. Orres is the one restaurant within walking distance; the rest of Gualala is a short drive.
The Space:
Impressive ocean views set the tone the moment you arrive at this Gualala home — wide sky, moving water, and that easy coastal calm you came for.
The heart of the house is an open floor plan that flows from a full kitchen — anchored by a Viking gourmet gas range — into the dining area and living room, so cooking, conversation, and downtime stay connected. That layout makes the home especially easy for families and groups who want to spread out without losing each other. When it's time to unwind, slip away to the dedicated TV room, or retire early with a book while the surf keeps time outside.
Days here follow the coast: whale watching from the deck December through April, spring wildflowers along the bluffs of Gualala Point Regional Park, kayaking on the Gualala River, and gallery-hopping in town. St. Orres — the landmark restaurant just up the road — is the one dinner spot within walking distance; everything else in Gualala is a short drive.
The three full baths — one per bedroom — make mornings easy for multi-couple groups, and the washer and dryer keep sandy beach days from following you home. Fog is part of the coast's rhythm here: mornings often start soft and silver, burning off to blue afternoons, with the warmest stretch running June through September. Cell service can be spotty along this coast, but the home's WiFi keeps you connected when you want to be.
OUTDOOR LIVING
Step outside to the deck — your front-row seat for Pacific sunsets and, in season, migrating gray whales. Outdoor dining on the patio turns simple meals into sunset dinners with the ocean still in view.

The Neighborhood:
Gualala is a charming coastal village on the Mendocino-Sonoma border, known for its art galleries, excellent restaurants, and access to stunning beaches. Gualala Point Regional Park is a short drive away with river kayaking, beach access, and bluff trails. The only restaurant within walking distance is St. Orres. Art galleries, Gualala Point Regional Park, and other dining are a short drive.
Getting Around:
From San Francisco, the drive is about 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Santa Rosa's Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS), about 90 minutes east, and drive the coast from there. Having a car opens up the entire Mendonoma Coast.
Other Things to Note:
December through April is whale season. You may spot gray whales breaching right from the bluff trail nearby. April through June brings stunning wildflower displays along the bluffs and throughout Gualala Point Regional Park. The warmest months run June to September. Coastal fog is common early in the day but gives way to sunshine by afternoon.
