About this property

Stunning Ocean Villa with Pool Near Pebble Beach, Carmel, Big Sur - Sleeps 18

Welcome to the Lodge at Seven Coves Lodge oceanfront villa.
As highlighted in Architectural Digest, this famous oceanfront house and its associated cottages, known as the Lodge at Seven Coves, have been featured in the acclaimed movie Basic Instinct and, more recently, the hit HBO Series Big Little Lies, starring Meryl Streep, Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman and others…
This 2.2-acre oceanfront Lodge, or villa, is the perfect spot for any large group - whether on a golf outing to the world-famous Pebble Beach Golf Links, a wine tasting excursion to Carmel Valley, or seeking the many outdoor adventures and splendor of the Big Sur Coast. It is perfect for large corporate groups or VIP visitors seeking exceptional accommodations during the AT&T Pro Am Celebrity Golf Tournament in early February, the Pebble Beach Food and Wine Festival and the Big Sur Marathon in April, or various and sundry other notable events throughout the year.

VALUE PROPOSITION
The home spans approximately 12,000 square feet and boasts some of the most dramatic oceanfront panoramas on the entire California Coast… from the Pebble Beach shores and Point Lobos State Park to the North, all the way down to Yankee Point and Big Sur to the South. This completely renovated and expanded property sleeps 18 comfortably, and its spacious footprint and bedrooms (averaging over 600 square feet), afford unparalleled privacy with literally no common walls between the home’s sleeping quarters. Altogether there are 6 king beds, 2 queen beds, a queen-size sleeper sofa, 2 full beds and 1 twin bed, and we keep additional beds on hand to accommodate just about any group’s particular configuration or needs. The eight bedrooms all have ensuite bathrooms and there are an additional two half baths that serve dining and common areas. Notably, six of the eight bedrooms have stunning ocean views.
MASTER BEDROOM - The Lodge has a spectacular dual master bedroom suite with oversized his & hers walk-in closets and full ocean views of a dramatic cliffside cove. Together, these 2 adjoining bedrooms weigh in at over 1,800 square feet of living space. The bathroom features a standalone shower and a therapeutic jetted tub with full ocean views. Adjacent to this room there is a common area with a coffee bar and mini refrigerator as well as a second full ensuite bath finished in river rock.
The value proposition for this property is startlingly compelling: the average cost per person (with 18 guests) is approximately $250-$350 per night depending on the season. Event weeks including the AT&T Golf Tournament and the Concourse D’ Elegance run up to $425 per night per guest. It is worth noting that if you have rented previously in Pebble Beach, you’re surely aware that virtually every house that accommodates more than 12 guests has been added on to in a way that breaks up the flow, function, and usability of the home. Many of these properties feel like cavernous choppy “Frankenstiens” with poorly organized additions and renovations, resulting in degraded privacy and inconvenience. The property at Seven Coves is truly exceptional experience with no such compromises which affords guests unprecedented privacy, convenient flow, and stunning oceanfront drama.
FEATURES & AMENITIES
There are 2 extraordinary social gathering areas at the Lodge at Seven Coves: the stunning Art Deco Library and the Living Room (or “Great Room”). This spectacular space offers dramatic frontline views of the crashing waves and coves below, and a panoramic vista of the Carmel Highlands Coast - from Point Lobos all the way to Yankee Point and the Garrapata Shores of Big Sur to the South.
LIVING ROOM
Under soaring twenty-five-foot ceilings, the Living Room contains 3 seating areas (all with 180° ocean views). One is arranged around a monolithic fireplace, the second faces the internal courtyard with its pool and waterfalls, and the third overlooks the always beckoning ocean panoramas.
LIBRARY
Down the hall from the Living Room a grand two-story Library replete with a spectacular gold and silver leaf domed ceiling, (a mural depicting Kepler’s Law of Planetary Motion), you will discover a collection of over 5,000 contemporary and rare books, as well as antique games - backgammon, chess, poker and more.
DETAILS MATTER
Unlike many rental properties which provide a hodgepodge of leftover furnishings of dubious taste and quality, the Lodge has exceptional furnishings epitomized by a mix of antique and contemporary pieces, all in pristine condition and scaled to fit the scope of the home.
KITCHEN
The commercial quality kitchen measures nearly 1,000 square feet and the adjacent formal and informal dining rooms comfortably seat 10 and 8 guests respectively. The kitchen features a bank of ovens comprised of 2 separate Wolf™ units, a commercial Wolf™ microwave, a large-scale vegetable steamer, 2 extra-large Subzero™ refrigerators, a Gageneau™ cooking Island with 10 gas burners, 2 barbecue grills, and 2 deep fry units. The kitchen also lends itself perfectly to catered events or more elaborate meals, with its adjacent food preparation and cleanup room. This “Scullery” room features 2 double-wide stainless-steel sinks, 2 dishwashers, and an ice machine. Additionally, 2 large pantry rooms with abundantly supplied flatware, dishware, stemware, and a dedicated coffee and tea room are nested in the kitchen’s glass atrium. To top it off, one entire wall of the kitchen is comprised of a wine refrigerator which contains approximately 1,500 bottles of wine, with plenty of room reserved for our guests’ own collections (upon request).

FITNESS FACILITY
The lower floor is anchored by an absolutely first-class commercial quality fitness facility with some of the best ocean views in the whole complex. The facility is thoroughly equipped with weights, yoga mats and stretching aids, as well as commercial-grade gym equipment including; Precor™ elliptical machines, recumbent bikes, treadmills, rowing machines, and Stairmasters™. The fitness area also features a large-scale steam room and a new Scandinavian dry sauna, and 3 HD Smart TVs with cable and movie channels to accompany your work-out. Adjacent to the fitness area, you can relax and decompress in the Lodge’s internal courtyard and pool area. A tiered garden features 3 waterfalls which cascade from a large hot tub at the top to the 800 square foot heated swimming pool at the bottom of the courtyard.

EXTERIORS & GROUNDS
Outside the house you’ll be greeted by over 4,000 square feet of stone and wood decking, featuring fire pits and intimate coastal ocean settings. The grounds are made up of professionally maintained gardens of numerous varieties over 2.2 acres of oceanfront. Guests are invited to explore their way down the coastal stairway to the water’s edge. Once you descend to near sea level, you can relax in the Adirondack chairs set around new fire pits, and use the handmade stone BBQ grill set right into the rocky cliffside.

EXTENSIVE PARKING is a rare commodity in Pebble Beach residential zones, Carmel by-the-Sea, and downtown Monterey, and Seven Coves conveniently offers a four-car garage with a dedicated electric charging bay. for a Tesla or other electric vehicles. In addition to its garage the house features a 150-foot stone security wall and monitoring system that provides plenty of secure off-street parking.

OTHER FEATURES INCLUDE:
- Comprehensive home entertainment system connected to new HD flat screen smart TV’s throughout
- High speed internet offering 2 separate WiFi systems from AT&T and Viasat Satellite.
- Our Slumber Party Room makes this spectacular home even more affordable for large groups (on a per-person basis). The room features multiple beds, without sacrificing style and comfort. Perfect for kids or adult guests who don’t mind sharing a room but prefer their own bed. This space includes its own full kitchen and ensuite full bathroom and has nice ocean views.
- Two spectacular custom outdoor hot tubs: one is a medium-sized natural river rock hot tub built into the North deck with expansive ocean views. The other is adjacent to the pool, fed by the garden’s waterfalls, and is protected from the elements.
- Custom stone firepit on the West deck, made famous by Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone features continuous propane feed to keep the outdoor party going ….
-Two new BBQs, one gas-fired, the other mobile and coal-fired

Awesome house an awesome views!
The property was beautiful, and the views were outstanding! Very well stocked kitchen. Plenty of room for a big group. I think it would be helpful to clarify the bedrooms and bathrooms a little more clearly in the description. Also a few ammenities are not working or not yet completed. Overall a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend!!

Spectacular Setting!
The house and ground were nothing short of amazing!! Make sure to ask Gary about recommendations for a private chef, incredible hikes nearby and other things to do. Three better you describe your group, the easier it will be to create what might be the best VRBO start you will ever have.

Incredible
WE are frequent VRBO renters at various locations and I can simply tell you this is a one of a kind find! The home, the property, the views and the owner who met us and explained the property himself were beyond compare. We were a group of a. I dults in Carmel to play golf to celebrate my husband's 60th birthday. We had 2 separate chefs recommended by the owner who created 2 perfect celebrations for us. After playing golf at the beautiful Pebble Beach we chose to abandon our cocktail plans there so that we could get back to the beautiful property and it's fire pit instead. I truly cannot rave more about this property and will undoubtedly return!
