This home was beautiful, tastefully decorated, had ocean views throughout the house, and was well stocked for our enjoyment. The private beach and surrounding places to visit and take in the scenic surroundings made for a wonderful place to stay. The owner was a pleasure to deal with as well. I will definitely book this home again.

What a beautiful house

We had an amazing time! We finished a puzzle, play Pictionary, walked to the private beach and enjoyed the incredible views and night full of stars. The host was great, easy to communicate and the pictures are accurate. We enjoyed the place a lot!

Perfect Sea Dream

Very comfortable, light and spacious house with a view of the water and the Pt. Arena lighthouse. It is situated in a lovely neighborhood and has a very pretty garden. In a quiet out of the way location that adds to the peace and serenity. Our second stay as it truly is a Sea Dream.

Lovely stay in a lovely home

This home is clean, bright and spacious. There’s plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the views from all of the upstairs rooms. Easy 10 or 15 minute walks down to the beach every day are what we will miss the most. Irish Beach is uncrowded, rugged and stunning; it is one of our favorite places.

Perfect Ocean Getaway

Beautiful spacious home perched up on slope with clear view of ocean. Easy walk to Irish Beach, which is private. The house provided all that we needed for a comfortable stay. Nice touch with the welcome gift. Host Masha was very accessible with warm communication.

Wonderful Time

My granddaughters and I stayed in this beautiful home for our girls trip. The views from the big widows were amazing. The deer family across the street were awesome and we were lucky enough to spot a pod of whales. The house very clean and the beds were super comfy. It had wi-fi and the kitchen was stocked with all that we needed. We had a memorable time.

Great place. Highly recommended. Easy drive to Mendocino/Headlands St Park/Russian Gulch St Park/Ft Bragg. What a view on hwy 1. Private Beach access at this place is a great perk. Walk for miles. Plenty of space.

Great location and spectacular view. The house is well equipped with comfortable beds, a large couch, big TV, etc. The appliances and bathrooms are pretty old, but they do the job and they even have an air fryer. The main complaint was that most of the outdoor lights didn't work at all, making the deck pretty much unusable at night, and the stairs leading up were quite dark.

Hi Rudolph, thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. I'm glad to know you found our house to be in a great location with spectacular views, well equipped with comfortable beds and furniture! I’m sorry that the outdoor lighting wasn’t functioning properly during your visit—this isn’t the experience I want for my guests. The issue has now been fully addressed, and additional lighting has been added. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.

The Great Escape

My family has been escaping to Irish Beach for 50 years. We’ve always stayed at the same place down the street every time. Now that there are grandparents, parents, grand children, children we needed extra space. This place was amazing! As described, incredible views and a couple houses down from our “normal” rental! The private beach never upsets. Memories were made.

Amazing !!!

What an amazing home and the hosts were so very accommodating. We were there for a family reunion to celebrate the lives of two very special family members that we lost this year and the home and location was just breathtaking. Each family had their own home and I have to say I think this home was hands down the best! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely.home and helping to make this such a memorable experience.

Nice ocean view. All electric house, not winter emergency ready. Power went out overnight. With no expectation that the power would be restored we had to leave, shortening our stay by 2 days. Should there be a refund for this?

Glad you found our place beautiful with nice ocean views. We’re sorry for the inconvenience caused by PG&E power outage. The power was restored within two hours, and you were promptly notified. We are sorry you chose to leave anyway. Thank you for your feedback.

Amazing View!

This is a lovely home. Nice and roomy. All of the bedrooms are a very nice size. We had family up and staying in another rental home. There was plenty of room for us to get together and visit. It is so close to the beach access. The driveway is very steep and a little tough to navigate,because it is narrow. We came in two vehicles and had to back out as there was not enough room to turn around. You can't beat Irish Beach for a beautiful and relaxing vacation. My husband and I have been going to Irish Beach for 44 years. It has always been our happy place!

Beautiful Beach House

The house was perfect for our family of 6 and our dog. The owners left some treats for the kids and the dog, and the house included access to the private Irish Beach, which was amazing. The house was clean and well-appointed and the hosts were easy to work with. The only negative is the remoteness of Manchester, which if you want quiet and solitude is perfect, but driving to restaurants, grocery store and other necessities is quite a drive (Fort Bragg is the closest and best option, but about 45 minutes away). Again, this isn't a negative, just something to be aware of. I would definitely recommend this wonderful vacation home, and our family will definitely be back again! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Responsiveness

We had a great time at Sea Dream. Masha was immediately and thoroughly responsive to the couple of needs that we had. We asked for stairway lighting improvement, and within a day new lights were installed. One big request: lighting on garage and some sort of warning about steep driveway and how to access without damage to vehicle. But the drive is so steep--and especially in the dark--is dangerous. House number is not lighted so is not visible. In short: arrival after dark is not recommended.
