Birdwatching in Bodega Bay
We felt like we had the best spot on the bay! Being right on the water was amazing. It was so peaceful and we enjoyed watching the tides change. It was nice to finally stay in Bodega Bay and get to enjoy the beauty. The location made it very easy to get to everything. My kids loved taking baths downstairs while looking out at the water. The wrap around deck was a plus. We played outside on the deck until dusk one day. Lastly, sitting outside in the hot tub surrounded by the bay was the cherry on top. We hope to come back soon!

RR Yacht Club: Beach+Hot tub+Outdoor fun!
Awesome place for a weekend away. Had a golf trip with 10 people, and were able to comfortably.

Tomales Bay: Tranquility, Bay Views, Kayaks &
Debra is an excellent host and communicator! The place completely exceeds expectations. Beds are extraordinary, kitchen is clutch, hot tub is great, and waking up to the ocean view is serene. Having access like that to kayaks and the bay from your bedroom is extremely unique in that area of California. There is really nothing like it! Would book again in a heartbeat.

Bodega Bay-Magical Ocean Front and Coastal View!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Deja Blu. The location is perfection! Private, with beautiful gardens, only a hop, skip and a jump from the ocean. Falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves at night was divine. The home was clean and comfortable, and Barr was a lovely, helpful host. If you are looking to unwind in serenity, I highly recommend this home.

Ocean View - Casa Balena
Great stay for a low-key gathering of friends which included a few young children. Spacious common area was great for everyone to be able to hangout together. Kitchen was well-equipped; we cooked a few meals. The neighborhood is peaceful and beautiful. Responsive and friendly host. Flexible checkout. Would stay again!

Bleu Bay Cottage
Aaron's place is a wonderful retreat right on the water. It is a beautiful house that is private and tucked off of the main road. Everything we needed was there. Full kitchen with great appliances, cozy living room & bedroom. All main rooms of the house have wonderful views of the water, bay and mountains beyond. Sitting on the deck is incredible with the water coming in below you at medium and high tide. The hot tub is excellent amenity! relaxing outdoors and seeing the moon & stars is an unforgettable experience! Aaron is a great host, very communicative and friendly. Highly recommend.

Abalone Cove - Oceanfront Getaway with Hot Tub
Beautiful cliff side view! We loved the hot tub on the deck. Humble abode built in the 80’s had adorable orange tile in the kids room upstairs! Be careful of single steps leading from kitchen into family room and hallway into bedrooms. Overall we loved this house. It was perfect for the 6 of us. Definitely don’t recommend bringing young kids as the yard has a dangerous cliff if kids were to wander. We would definitely recommend this house for a peaceful getaway!

Family Beach Cottage
The beach cottage was a live, close up view of a bird’s paradise. We saw heron, snowy plovers, cranes, turkey vultures, crows, turkeys, and more! The girls loved finding treasures on the shore. The beds were comfortable and the Grandmas Velma loved the bed ‘right on the water.’ We all enjoyed the hot tub with a view! Tom and his crew were so helpful and responsive. They’ve thought of everything and really want to provide their guests with a comfortable experience.

A Slice of Heaven in The Sea Ranch
Anu’s house in the Sea Ranch was perfect for our group. So easy to walk to the bluff trail, well equipped kitchen and gorgeous views of the stars from the hot tub and decks at night. We also really enjoyed the ocean view from the master bedroom and sitting in the sun on the front deck.

Bright Modern Home | Ocean Side
We had a great Spring Break with our grandchildren with Barbara's place as our base. A very comfortable and user friendly home. A quiet and super pleasant location. Close to beautiful beaches with swimming pools, tennis courts and pickle ball available for the non-beach time. We enjoy cooking and eating in and Barbara's kitchen was easy to use with good cook and dining ware. And so quiet. Lovely place.

Award-Winning Forest Getaway: @thesearanchhouse
Beautiful house, with amazing forest views out the large windows. I loved the wifi speakers that could play throughout the whole place, including one that was battery powered and could be moved around, and sounded great. Well-maintained hiking trails start right out your door through the forest, and can go all the way down to the beach. Very comfortable bed. Fast wifi. Lovely decor. Great selection of coffee equipment. Floor heaters in bathroom and kitchen are appreciated on cold mornings. Hot tub was great; plenty of space for 3 people to stretch out, more than that will get cozy. Very private location -- there is one close neighboring house but it was vacant during our 1 week stay. Doesn't get a ton of direct sunlight due to all the beautiful towering trees around. Some forest maintenance was happing on weekdays during the day which was mildly annoying noise but not the host's fault. Recommend checking out Gualala Point Regional Park, was a nice easy walk with fun views.

Seaward Bliss ★ (Private Hillside Retreat)
We stayed here for our 23rd anniversary, and this home exceeded our expectations. We normally stay bluff side, but I'm glad we didn't. Pauline has put so much thought into making this the perfect get away and the layout is ideal for a couple looking for a quiet and private retreat. We loved the hot tub, views, fireplace (which worked great ;-) and the wonderfully comfortable beds. Many whale spouts and great dinners at the Vue and Sea Ranch Lodge where we charged our car.

Stunning Modern Sea Ranch Stay
Came back for a second stay, and was as wonderful and peaceful as we remembered it to be. The home is an incredible retreat - great views, and everything we needed for a relaxing two days away from the city. Appliances are top notch, and everything is thoughtfully laid out. Carolyn is a very thoughtful host, and quickly answered questions we had. Would recommend this home for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway, and we would love to be back again in the future!

Sea Ranch Serenity
Great home for two families to share. The kids had their own area and the other two rooms have their own bathroom. Living room area upstairs had beautiful views and was a comfortable hang spot. Hot tub, big yard area and walkable to great trails.

Heron House on The Sea Ranch
Deldi is an excellent host. Great communication and always easy to contact. The home is in a great location. Two minutes to the bluff trail and you can sit on the balcony with a glass of wine looking at the sun setting over the ocean while deer graze in the front yard. Magical!

Gray Fox Dacha: The Sea Ranch Retreat
Anastassias place was squeaky clean, tastefully decorated and functional. It was peaceful and quiet. And communication was great. We loved the decor and had a pleasant stay. We recommend knowing how to start a fire as it took us 2 hrs to get one going since we were both amateurs in starting one haha. It helped with keeping the place warm. We thought we would run out of lighter fluid that they provided us. But luckily we made it happen.

Beach home-2 bedroom-Ocean literally across the st
Beautiful view and such a pretty home! Loved the handpicked selection of things in the home and the plants. The big glass windows with a beautiful view of the ocean was such a treat!

The Beach House
Beautiful home, from the courtyard entrance to the inside. The colors and decorations inside fit the coastal location reminding you where you are. And by far some of the most spectacular views and sunsets we got to see from the windows looking out to the ocean from the living room and upstairs loft area. Besides the spectacular views, we enjoyed the short walks to the beach and looking at all the beautiful flowers and vegetation that Bodega Bay offers. Natalie was very responsive and accommodating. I would highly recommend staying at her lovely home.

Short walk to Stangel Beach and Ohlson pool
Had a fantastic week in Sea Ranch at Matt’s place; felt like home for my family of 4. The views are stunning, the location was the best we’ve had since coming to sea ranch—a short lovely walk to Ohlson rec and kid-friendly walks to the beach. Also only 1 mile from Pebble beach. It was clean, well appointed, comfy king bed, the hot tub was both hot and clean, the lovely open layout made family time while cooking possible, my toddler loved hanging out in the loft. I could go on about what I loved. I hope to stay here again!

Ocean Crest
The house is in the most beautiful and dramatic setting. We didn’t want to leave! The kitchen was a bit tight for group cooking but it’s super well outfitted with plenty of plates & glasses and every gadget & serving piece you could want. We had a great time here & I would book here again in a heartbeat.

Luxurious Waterfront Sonoma Coast Home
Wow, what a special place. The rainy days couldn’t ruin the trip, even though they tried. Gazing out the huge windows in the living room was peaceful and more entertaining than we could have imagined. Seals resting on the beach between the estuary and ocean, plenty of birds and beautiful spring blooms. The property is exactly as pictured, if not even more impressive in person. Super clean, well equipped, comfortable furniture and the bathrooms were very luxurious. We spent a lot of time in the kitchen; which is well equipped and comfortable for preparing meals. One of the best AirBnBs we have stayed at and plan to return soon (if not annually).

Steps from the Beach, Hot tub, and ocean views
The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cook ware. We enjoyed being such a short walk to the beach but we equally enjoyed walking in the neighborhood. Its a beautiful place and people were very friendly. The host gave very clear, easy to follow instructions. Instructions were so good that there was no need to contact her during our stay!

ROSEA Ranch: cozy, oceanfront, walk to beach
Such an amazing stay and visit! We had an extremely relaxing a peaceful stay at Sea Ranch. The house is so welcoming and stocked with anything you could need. Everything is so thoughtful, and well appointed, you feel like you are at home. We loved all the little details about this place that is such a treasure and clearly so loved. We saw so many animals, and could easily walk to the beach. You can hear the Ocean from your window and enjoy your coffee in the morning watching the ocean. Honestly, Nate and Nora’s place is our new favorite at sea ranch. Hosts are so nice and quick to respond. We had a lovely time relaxing, and being out in nature. Thank you both so much, we only have good things to say, thanks for sharing your beautiful home.

Jean’s Retreat: Ocean Views and Wildlife Wonders
Renee was very friendly and responsive to our messages... she made us feel right at home. Your open the front door and are greeted with an amazing view of the ocean. We enjoyed our family time together in this very cozy/ comfortable home. Much appreciated respite from daily grind. A breath of fresh air.
