OVERVIEW

The Great Escape - Luxe Sea Ranch home with hot tub, ocean view & yoga space

The Pacific horizon is the backdrop to every morning here -- coffee tastes better with a view. Soak in the hot tub as the sun dips below the Pacific. A warm fire and a glimpse of the ocean from the master and downstairs decks anchor cozy evenings in. Room for 8 in this 3-bedroom home. Near the heated community pool. The Sonoma Coast's best-kept secret is waiting for you. Sea stacks and tide pools frame the coastline, with harbor seals often sunning on the rocks below.

Wake up in a newly updated Sea Ranch home made for slowing down—multi-level living, coastal air, and a wraparound deck that invites you outside morning and night. From select spots—especially the primary suite deck and the downstairs deck—you can catch a glimpse of the Pacific above the treetops. The setting feels unmistakably Sonoma Coast.

Outdoor living
The deck wraps the home, creating room to spread out: soak in the private hot tub, circle up at the gas fire pit on chilly evenings, and after dark, take in some of the coast’s best stargazing with minimal light around you. Barbecue on the patio when you want dinner outdoors, then carry the easy mood back inside.

Living, dining & kitchen
The heart of the home is bright and thoughtfully laid out, with evergreens and treetops framing the windows—plus those occasional ocean glimpses from the right angles. Cook with confidence in an open kitchen with upgraded appliances, including a gas range, French-door refrigerator, and wine cooler. Start the day in a window-lined breakfast room, then gather in a separate dining area for longer meals and conversation. In the evening, step down into the sunken living room—gas fireplace, board games, and a natural place to land after a day outside.

Bedrooms & bathrooms
All three bedrooms include en suite bathrooms and smart TVs. The main-level primary suite adds a dedicated yoga space (mats, balance ball, and weights) that opens to the deck—easy stretches with fresh air, or a quiet reset between hikes.

Exploring from here
The home sits just up the hill from Shoreline Highway, with a Tesla charger in the garage for day trips along the coast. Moonraker—the nearest Sea Ranch recreation center, with an outdoor pool, tennis/pickleball, and saunas—is a little over a mile south. You’re about a mile from Pebble Beach, Black Point Beach, and the Bluff Trail, with The Sea Ranch Lodge roughly two miles away, Stewarts Point about four miles, and Gualala about eight miles—all an easy, scenic drive.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Choose from 3 bedrooms. Altogether, the home comfortably sleeps 6.

Welcome to The Sea Ranch -- ten miles of rugged Sonoma coastline where modern architecture and wild nature exist in harmony. Nearby highlights include community heated pool and hot tub (South) (14-minute walk), Pebble Beach access trail (2-minute drive), Black Point headland trails (3-minute drive). The community features miles of bluff-top and forest trails, tidepools, two heated community pools, a fitness center, tennis courts, and The Sea Ranch Lodge with its restaurant, lounge and café. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive south for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.

Sea Ranch is located on the Sonoma Coast, approximately 2.5 hours north of San Francisco via Highway 101 to Highway 1. The closest airport is Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, about 1.5 hours east. A car is essential for exploring the area. The scenic drive along Highway 1 is part of the experience.

Streaming services are available with guests' own account credentials.

Upstairs, find a second spacious suite with its own balcony and a third with a desk work area, where you can log onto the high-speed WiFi and take calls if need be.

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.

You must be 24 years or older to rent this property.
