Wonderful but also not
For the price. The state of the couch was terrible. Looked like it was taken off a free pile on the side of the road and felt that way too. Gross old and lumpy. The heater was so loud we couldn’t sleep. The light woke us up at 7am sharp- no blackout blinds. Beautiful but holy crap, very bright very early The bathrooms were reminiscent of a best western in need of repair. It really should cost less or be remodeled: it did not look like the pictures. Although it’s hard to beat a view like that.

Although the views and privacy were excellent, the property itself is in need of care and attention to many details. This is not a luxury or high end property, but has high end pricing.

Stunning location
Gorgeous house on a cliff directly upon the ocean. Stunning, open views and very, very private. 5 minute drive to Gualala and the Surf Market. Beautiful kitchen but needs some new kitchen knives and more bowls for families that like to cook at home instead of eating out each meal. There is plenty of new, comfortable patio furniture to sit and enjoy watching the ocean, birds and many whales. We’ve rented many houses along the north coast and I highly recommend this home. We will definitely be returning in the future!

Gualala Relaxation
The rental house is located in a great location, just 1.5 miles north of Gualala. Easy to get any type of food provision in town. The house has a fantastic view of the ocean, lots and lots of windows facing the sea. The house can use some maintenance and they need more outdoor chairs (only two). The kitchen has many of the basic utensils and pots. Good internet connectivity and the TV has many apps available. We would return.

If you are looking for a relaxing, get a way. this property is perfect. The house is beautiful, location couldn't have been better and Vacasa was very helpful. This spot is perfect for star gazing and just watching the water and listening to the waves crash. Definitely recommend.

Best ocean view and sound ever!!!!
Spectacular views from every room with waves crashing onto the giant rocky shore. Great privacy with no direct near neighbors. Slept with window open listening to the waves. Visiting one footed seagull daily. Hot tub great! A few small issues: 1.the hand held shower in the tub was inoperable. 2.The front door was not always locking on first or second try. 3. An information booklet would have been nice with restaurants, trails, details on appliances and things to do.4. Larger coffee maker. But with the views....who cares!!!

Great location with minor deficiencies
This is a great location. There are no instructions on how to use the TV and hot tub. A 5 cup coffee maker is totally inadequate for this home. The BBQ does not work. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Fabulous oceanfront home
We have stayed at many coastal properties around Gualala and Anchor Bay etc, and this one was one of our favorites. The vast ocean view, the home layout, the hot tub, the privacy and the large lot were all wonderful. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well-stocked and the living space ample. Ants as we read about yes, tiny ants, but just do not put food on the countertop. They were here first! A few negatives (though short-lived): bathroom towel fixtures loose or missing, one bathtub with missing over coating enamel around the drain, mildew within shower caulking in master bedroom. These could all be remedied easily. Overall, this home is a wonderful place for your solo, couples or small group stay! A short distance from many great restaurants, a grocery store or two, and killer beaches. Also much sea life to sea, whether migrating whales, sea lions or elephant seals (we saw and heard one’s bellowing at Shell Beach). Enjoy the property, but explore beyond it!

Great views
The house has great views and location is amazing. Hot tub was amazing, plenty of space on the deck. Cleanliness was a bit of an issue. There was trash left over in the bathroom from previous occupants. The lining didn't feel clean, and smelled unclean. We had to take off the comforter and decorative pillows and place them in the closet because they smelled awful, we washed the bed linen, and aired out the room. Didn't expect to work on my vacation, but oh well. Overall it was a wonderful house, and the views and location made up for any inconvenience. Would stay there again, just would be more prepared.

Gorgeous, but Needs Some TLC
The location is unparalleled! Big property for my son to run around on. Phenomenal views of the ocean and coast. The house is very close to town and beach access, which was so convenient. The only downside was the house needs a little love. Many things were broken or in a state of disrepair, which I reported to the property managers (and will hopefully be fixed for the next visitors). Bring your own firewood (as it is not provided) and you'll be snug as a bug in a rug. My family hopes to visit again during whale migration for an amazing, magical getaway.

On second day fell in shower. No mats to grip my feet and just slipped. Damaged my leg and hip to the point where my friend had to pack us up and take me to the hospital. I reported to VACASA THAT NO MATS IN SHOWER OR GRIPPING MAT OUTSIDE OF SHOWER!! Home very nice except for ants and ant traps on counter. Also road too winding and couldn’t find a beach!!

When just returned and want to go back! We had a lovely stay! Pros: VIEW! You walk in the front door and the amazing view hits you head on and surrounds you! Furnishings were comfy and we all slept great. We really enjoyed the spa and used the BBQ a few times. Cons: too few outdoor furniture pieces, the lounge chairs were ripped and unusable, so we dragged the four table chairs everywhere. The ants! (I know you are forewarned) I am a clean person, wiping counters often and never leaving dishes out and we still had a big problem with ants- even in the dishwasher. Not a deal breaker by any means, just annoying. Overall, my family had a wonderful stay! Thank you!

Great mini vacation
It was great location being right on the ocean with coves and rocks to see as well. There was some rain intermittently during our stay and the clouds over the ocean made the view even more beautiful and interesting. All of this could be seen from almost every room. The house was large and sunny and very private which is important to me. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub especially with it's great location on the deck. I didn't realize Gualala has a reputation for being in a "banana belt" with some weather being blocked by Point Arena just north. We took a amazing hike nearby that is part of the California Coastal National Monument. Jodi at the local Vacasa office was wonderful to deal with. She went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable.
