End the day in your private hot tub under the open sky. Bring your pup—dogs love the bluff trails here. Room for 4 in this 2-bedroom home. Sea Ranch’s heated pools, saunas, tennis, pickleball, and The Lodge are a short drive away when you want a swim, time on the courts, or a night out. You’ll catch distant ocean views from the living room and primary bedroom—a quiet reminder the Pacific is close. Architecture, nature, and the Sonoma Coast—Sea Ranch has it all.

This bright, single-level home is located at the north end of Sea Ranch, right on the western boundary of the Sea Ranch Golf Links.

Seemingly designed for a romantic weekend or a couples' retreat, this home is an open, sun-filled space for enjoying the wild Northern California Coast. Hit the links at the neighboring golf course, visit the Del Mar Recreation Center to practice your tennis serve and recuperate in the sauna, or simply curl up with a good book on the deck. The magic of Sea Ranch will be right outside your door - book your escape to the pearl of the Northern California Coast today!

Guest Access:
You will have full access to the entire home and all its amenities during your stay. The private hot tub is available around the clock -- no reservation needed. This home welcomes up to 2 dogs -- the yard and nearby trails are ready for your pup. Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival. 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.
Sea Ranch is about 2.5 hours north of San Francisco -- take Highway 101 to Highway 1 for one of California's most scenic coastal drives. The nearest airport is Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, roughly 90 minutes east. A car is the way to go for exploring the area.
Other Things to Note:
Wake up each morning to read the newspaper and prepare freshly ground coffee and homemade waffles in the kitchen (with a dishwasher), and gather around the dining table to admire the views and use the free WiFi to post photos of the morning's sunrise. Keep an eye open for harbor seals as you walk your dogs on the Bluff Trail (Good to know: a two-dog maximum applies), and come home to soak in the private hot tub, toss your bathing suits in the washer/dryer, and gather in the living room for a night of cable, HBO, DVD, and Blu-ray favorites on the flatscreen TV.
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.

With the idea that appropriate expectations make for a more satisfying stay, I will be straightforward about this property. It was very clean and provided what we needed for our stay. It has two nice bedrooms, one of which looks over a meadow and then the golf course. It is near Gualala. The house is quite close to the neighbors so when you are in the hot tub you are looking directly at the neighbor's wall on one side and out to a meadow/golf course on the other. It is fine, but you wouldn't want to be loud in the hot tub late in the evening. The decor of the house is comfortable and clean, but functional rather than inviting. They did not splurge on the appliances, and we had some resulting problems. The house reads- someone's home base when they go on outside coastal adventures.

Thank you, Lisa, for your thoughtful feedback! We’re glad you found the property clean and well-located. We appreciate your insights and are committed to enhancing the experience for our guests. We hope to welcome you back soon!
The home is superb -- easy access from CA1, clean, one-story, nice views of the Sea Ranch meadow and cypresses toward the ocean. And easy access to Gualala and Pt. Arena, that are both well well worth visiting.

Perfect place!
Whispering Wave was a perfect getaway for 2 people and 2 dogs. Clean, well-appointed, and very close to several trails leading to the bluffs.
Clean and well maintained. Dog friendly. Easy access to the beach and Gualala.

Great for a solo getaway
I enjoyed a long weekend with my dog in this quaint home in a great location. Several easy access points to the coastal trail. The house had a few cleanliness issues but overall, it was a good experience.

Hi, June. Thank you for providing us with this valuable feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the location of our home. We thank you for your feedback, as it helps us improve our guests' experiences. We look forward to welcoming you back for another fabulous getaway in the future.
The house was clean, open and bright and was very comfortable. The home has a nice blue-water-view, and is on the golf course, but retains a sense of privacy. Definitely a place to return to again.
