About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Unparalleled, sweeping, front row views of the Northern California coastline...

Totally private, two-bedroom house on the edge of the bluff. Ideal for a romantic getaway or a family weekend… Gated access to a 6-mile private beach...

Complementary bottle of local sparkling wine with every stay!

One word describes this house: DRAMA! This is 24/7 ocean drama…

- Spend hours on the deck watching the waves crash on the rocks below…

- Feel the spray on your face when the breeze is just right…

- Watch whales casually passing through, right from the living room window…

- Toast to unobstructed ocean sunsets every evening…

- Stay up late on a clear night and watch the Milky Way …

- Go to sleep to the sound of the ocean every night…

- Wake up after a rainy night to a morning of rainbows on the northern side…

- And (if you happen to be up before dawn) see the ocean lit up by the moonlight…

This house is COMPLETELY private. Although it is located within a small coastal neighborhood, the cliffs and trees on the property are such that no nearby buildings or roads are visible from any window or deck anywhere in the house. The highway is far enough that no traffic sounds of any kind can be heard… Just the sound of the crashing waves…

Only 5 minutes away from the nearest grocery store, 20-30 minutes from multiple world-class restaurants along the coast and just 45 minutes away from a dozen Anderson Valley wineries where tastings are often free if you just drop in…

Recent remodel of the living room, kitchen and master bedroom. The second bedroom and bathroom are located on a separate floor and have not been remodeled. That dated second bedroom is the house’s only weakness, but as owners who have lived at the house full-time recently, we don’t think that it takes away from this spectacular property. There is one security camera mounted on the exterior of the house, above the front door. This camera monitors the driveway and the entryway to the house. There are no other cameras, or monitoring devices anywhere else in, or around the house, or on the property.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access, onsite parking, and a car charging station.

Ocean view and crashing waves!
We enjoyed a breathtaking view of the ocean from every angle of the home. We initially booked for two nights but were fortunate enough to add an extra night last minute! The weather was great for most of our stay, allowing us to experience both a sunny day and a foggy day. The home has a cozy, cabin-like feel, which I really loved. Its different levels give it a quirky charm. The primary bedroom is located upstairs, just off the kitchen, while the lower bedroom is downstairs and features one queen bed and two twin beds, making it ideal for a family. The property is situated on a cliffside, so, as other guests have mentioned, there was no road noise, and we didn’t see any neighbors, which made it feel very secluded. Although the downstairs area does need some attention, it didn't prevent us from enjoying our stay. For anyone with major mobility challenges, this home could present some difficulties. Overall, this place suited our needs and tastes perfectly! Additionally, our dog loved having access to the private beach!

Stunning
It's a beautiful house. You walk in and are greeted by stunning views. The house is a bit dated, but you can tell it was top-of-the-line when it was built. We wanted to do some stargazing on the deck, but honestly, the deck was a bit spooky (weather-worn on a cliff), and we were chickens, so we opted to look out the windows, which was gorgeous.

Beautiful view!
Beautiful view! Best part of house. Living room very nice as well!! Negatives…..very low to the floor beds. 1 tv. Located in master. No chairs for people to watch tv. Yes the bottom level hasn’t been remolded. That’s ok! But there is absolutely no reason for the terrible stains on the stairs. Very off putting

Spectacular views!!!
This house is unbelievable!! #1 are the views of the ocean and shore line - 180 spectacular views! Plenty of places on this property to see the ocean! You feel as if you have no neighbors; there is no road noise - it is at the end of a dead end street. We never went out to eat since we found the kitchen well stocked for those who want to cook in the house. Grocery store is 9 minutes away - a decent grocery. The inside of the house is simple and very comfortable. We stayed 2 nights and wished we had booked it for a lot longer! The owners were very responsive. Book this one! It is well worth it!

Fantastic getaway
This was one of the best places we've stayed on the Mendocino Coast. We been renting a week every year for 20 years and this one is right up there with the best. Is it perfect, no, but NO house is and people need to accept that. Great views, clean, comfortable, location, this place has it all. We saw whales from the deck every day, went to Irish Beach several times. It right between Point Arena and Mendocino so you can do a lot of things.

Beautiful and comfortable!!
My friend and I stayed for 4 nights. The home is extremely private, very clean, well stocked kitchen....but the view.. You have the most spectacular view. The beds are very comfortable, pillows are nice and towels were lovely. Mother Nature didn't cooperate but we read and relaxed. I would definitely stay at this home again.

Amazing Property!
The location of the home is astounding. The views are easily some of the best on the entire coast. The home juts out providing a 180 degree view from inside and out, and with no other homes in the line of sight. The one less than perfect aspect is the condition of the windows. We had to clean the sliders and some of the amazing picture windows. That took about 10 minutes....no big deal. But some of the windows need to be replaced to enhance the views. The owners make it clear that they are attempting to get permits to update the house, which is fine....but we hope they replace a few of the windows. if this is done, the home is well worth the high price. One last point....the master bedroom has a spectacular view. The downstairs bedroom with a queen and two twins in one room is far less appealing. In our opinion, the home is wonderful for a family with a few kids, or just a couple on a romantic getaway. If two adults couples rented this home, the couple staying downstairs should get a nice discount.... Overall, we loved it!

Priceless view
We enjoyed our stay! We loved listening to the ocean, watching the sunset, and sipping champagne. The house is private and quiet, and served as an excellent place to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. The owner has taken great care to organize a binder that explains everything, and offers wonderful suggestions. The private access to Irish Beach is another fantastic amenity!

On the edge of the world
Nothing could have been more perfect for this weekend stay at Omar's incredible home. Without even one cloud in the sky and daytime temperatures in the upper 70s and nighttime in the 50s, the weather could not have been better. The house is perched seemingly precariously above the rocks and pacific below offering a stunning, uninterrupted vantage point of the most beautiful coast in CA and a white noise to bring one of the best sleeps I've had in awhile. We were fortunate to be there on clear nights and the new moon. The lack of any light pollution seemingly made every star in the universe visible. I echo what every other review has already indicated. Though the downstairs accommodations (where we slept) are dated, there was absolutely no lack of comfort--beds were comfortable, sheets soft and warm, and pillow options with various degrees of firmness. The only drawback would be the sink in this bathroom (only a trickle of water comes out). Shower is cramped for my 6 ft but was perfectly functional to get the job done. From what I understand, eventually Omar will be doing a full remodel of this property. Considering how amazing it already is, it will become truly one in a million property. We certainly hope to return here again one day!

Potential!
The view was wonderful. The furnishings were slightly shabby, but comfortable. The kitchen supplies, were bare minimum. The walkway was shaky- needs to be done and needs better lighting. A law suit waiting to happen! Also could use exhaust fans in the bathrooms. The pictures of the deck furniture were not the same. That being said we had a really nice week- just had to improvise when cooking. Also, because of the risk of fire, we didn’t use the charcoal grill. Add a gas grill- it’s safer. This place has huge potential and despite my remarks we’d rent again!

The place was very unique. Views were amazing. The walk down to the outside cement patio and watching the sunset was spectacular. Even though it rained and was very windy out on some days the house was very cozy and safe. The private beach was a short walk away and we walked for miles every day. This place was serene and quiet.
