About this property

Newly remodeled oceanfront home with hot tub near Walk On Beach

Summary:

Perched on the bluffs where the Sonoma Coast meets the sky, this home delivers drama. Soak in the hot tub as the sun dips below the Pacific. A warm fire and ocean views anchor cozy evenings in. Room for 6 in this 3-bedroom home. Sea Ranch community pools, tennis courts, and the Lodge are nearby. Architecture, nature, and the Pacific -- Sea Ranch has it all. Cormorants dive and otters float just offshore -- nature's channel plays 24/7 from the windows.



The Space:

This luxury home was newly remodeled for 2025. Features include top-of-the-line automatic blinds. A radiant heating system keeps every room comfortable.



Admire unobstructed Pacific views from this three-bedroom blufftop Sea Ranch home directly above Walk On Beach, freshly remodeled in 2025 with automatic blinds and radiant heat. Relax on the deck and garden patio, unwind in the private hot tub, and enjoy shared access to Sea Ranch’s heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts.



You'll find this oceanfront home on the bluffs overlooking Walk On Beach, just a few steps from the always-spectacular Bluff Trail.



With its wall of windows that frame the cliffs and ocean, this home offers a relaxing escape in every season. Stock the kitchen with your favorite ingredients from the Surf Market in Gualala (four miles north), take your morning coffee on the sheltered garden patio, and come home from your afternoon golf game to watch unforgettable sunsets on the ocean-facing deck.



Come and discover the magic of Sea Ranch today.



SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

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



PROPERTY AMENITIES

-- 3 bedrooms, 3 bath

-- Private hot tub

-- Wood-burning fireplace



COMMUNITY AMENITIES (at Sea Ranch recreation centers)

-- Heated pools and saunas (at Del Mar, Moonraker, and Ohlson rec centers)

-- Tennis and pickleball courts (at rec centers)

-- Miles of coastal bluff trails



Guest Access:

This is your private retreat for the duration of your stay -- full run of the house. The private hot tub is available around the clock -- no reservation needed. Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival. As a guest, you also have access to Sea Ranch community amenities including the pools, tennis courts, fitness center, and miles of trails. A recreation pass will be provided.



The Neighborhood:

Take morning walks to explore the tidepools and watch for seals at Shell Beach less than a mile south, and spend your afternoons enjoying the heated outdoor pool, saunas, and tennis courts at the Del Mar Recreation Center one mile north. Stock up in Gualala, just 10 minutes south, where you'll find grocery stores, restaurants, a hardware store, and gas. Bodega Bay is a beautiful drive for fresh seafood.



Getting Around:

Plan for a 2.5-hour drive from San Francisco (Highway 101 to Highway 1). If flying, Santa Rosa's Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) is the closest option at about 90 minutes east. You'll want a car here -- the winding coastal roads are half the adventure.



Other Things to Note:

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.



Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring and the meadows explode with wildflowers. April through June is peak bloom season along the Sonoma Coast. The warmest months are June through September. Expect coastal fog most mornings that gives way to sunny afternoons.



Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.

Such an incredibly beautiful home with an unbelievable living space. I’d come back a hundred times. I do wish they had updated larger beds, such a beautiful home deserves at least a queen size!

One of the best!

As the architect for the house I am, of course a bit prejudiced, but of all the houses I have ever designed this one is right at the top of the list as a favorite. The house, now 50 years old, has stood the test of time.

Beautiful place, nicely appointed, the BEST location.

Great views, nice kitchen with killer view, beautiful location, lots of space -- its a great place. Also, Joanne, the property manager was absolutely fantastic -- she was there whenever we needed a bit of assistance and went above the call of duty to ensure our hot tub got fixed over the holiday week.

A wonderful week next to the ocean

Beautiful house close to the bluffs of Sea Ranch. Nothing like spending the week with friends, watching the sun set from the hot tub, falling asleep to the sound of surf crashing on the beach below, then waking up for a morning walk to Trinks in Gualala.

Beautiful house, beautiful setting

This is a dream vacation rental. The house is architecturally stunning and sits right on a bluff overlooking the wild Pacific. The beds are super comfortable & the kitchen is extremely well-equipped; it made our stay during a wild and stormy winter weekend absolutely perfect. Already looking forward to coming back!

Fantastic, spacious home for a relaxing getaway

My family thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing week in Sea Ranch at this lovely home! Its large, central living area is ideal for gathering the whole family by the fire. The bedrooms are fairly secluded, allowing for privacy. The home's location in central Sea Ranch is nice for access to bluff trail both to the north and the south.

Great View and Location

We had a great stay at rolling waves. It was our second time staying there and it was super easy to book, check in and check out. The floor in the living space changed from the last time we were there from carpet to polished concrete, which was easy to clean and warm from the in floor heating. We will be back to enjoy more of the incredible view from the living room and hot tub!

We’d rebook in a second. And we will.

The house was incredibly well appointed. I’m a cook so renting homes can be hit or miss. Total hit! Had it all. Everything was clean and comfortable for our reunion with our grown children. Provided space for everyone to be together and alone when desired. Hot tub was perfection.

wonderful week by the sea

During this crazy Covid time, this house was a perfect place to get away with my family and unwind. We loved the expansive livingroom with the ocean view and the stargazing on the clear nights. The house is well appointed and the hot tub was much appreciated. The entrance gate was a bit tricky and difficult to open especially for my elderly mom. Otherwise, only high praise for Rolling Waves!

Wonderful Location

The location of this home can't be beat -- it's private but also right near the bluff trail and beach, and central on the ranch. The home itself is beautiful architecturally but needs some updating. The windows are non-functional, the heating upstairs didn't work, and the kitchen isn't super well provisioned with cooking implements, etc. Just a bit dated and you can tell it's a rental, but it's spacious, and has rustic charm with a wonderful location.
Response from VrboOwner on Jun 21, 2023
Thank you for staying with us, Robin. We are so glad the location worked out well for you. We are sorry to hear some aspects of the home did not meet your expectations. We appreciate you letting us know there is room for improvement and we will pass your feedback on to our local team. We hope to host you again very soon!

The is lovely and beautiful decorated. The views and location are perfect but the cleaning crew did not do a good job. Unfortunately the garage outside was over flowing and there was a few other items which should have been addressed.
