About this property

Seaflower Cove: Ocean Views + Space for Families

Summary:

"Magical stay with a million dollar view. Great for our family gathering with a large open floor plan and lots of private bedrooms." -Deb



Seaflower Cove is perfect for families, with 4 bedrooms (including bunk room) and 2.5 baths. Gather in the large living and dining spaces, enjoy sunset drinks on the roofdeck, or relax in the whirlpool tub while watching the waves. Minutes from the town of Gualala, this home blends comfort, space, and scenery for an unforgettable Mendocino coast getaway!



The Space:

*Ocean Views for the Whole Crew*



Seaflower Cove is designed for families and multigenerational trips, with 3 bedrooms, a bunk room, and 2.5 baths, comfortably sleeping several families. Gather in the open-concept living area, updated kitchen (Fall 2024), or glass-enclosed dining space. Cozy up by the propane fireplace on cool evenings, or step out onto one of 4 balconies to watch whales, dolphins, and the horizon. A half bath and enclosed office with daybed provide extra flexibility, and Starlink WiFi keeps everyone easily connected.



*Relax with the Sights and Sounds of the Pacific*



Stunning ocean views stretch from nearly every room. Climb the stairs to the roof deck for sunbathing, stargazing, or sharing evening, sunset cocktails. Enjoy covered al fresco dining just off the kitchen, or lounge in bed as waves crash below. Every spot in the house feels connected to the coast.



*Seconds to Town, a World Away*



Minutes from downtown Gualala, you’ll find grocery stores, restaurants, and a Saturday farmers market. Within a 5-minute drive, explore pocket beaches, Gualala Point, or kayak the river. Head further afield to the Point Arena lighthouse, wineries, or the Sea Ranch, all within 30 minutes.



*Spacious Layout Across Four Levels*



The home spans four levels, offering privacy and multiple gathering spaces for everyone. Stairs connect each level, so guests comfortable with multiple flights enjoy both separation and shared moments. Highlights include:



-Main level: open living, dining, kitchen, half bath, office/daybed

-Upper level: loft-style bedroom adjacent to the roof deck

-Lower level: two bedrooms, including primary suite with ensuite whirlpool bath, and laundry

-Ground level: bunkroom with ping pong, games, 2 queen + 2 twin fold-down beds — perfect for kids



Each level has private balconies or outdoor access, letting everyone soak in the Pacific views. The bunkroom keeps kids entertained while adults relax, making it ideal for families or multigenerational gatherings.



Everyone gets their own space while staying connected for shared meals and play.



*Family-Friendly Features*



We love hosting families! Enjoy beach towels, kids’ dishes, pack ‘n play, and toys. The bunkroom keeps kids entertained while adults relax.



*Power On, Even When the Lights Go Out*



Seaflower Cove has a full-house solar + battery backup, so your getaway continues uninterrupted even during storms or outages in this remote coastal area.



Guest Access:

The entire house and all of its decks and patios, is available for you to enjoy. The garage is locked for storage.



The Neighborhood:

Seaflower Cove is on a quiet, residential street overlooking the Pacific Ocean with other homes and vacation rentals. Multiple public beaches are just a short drive away, while downtown Gualala is easily walkable along highway 1.



Getting Around:

You need a car to get to Seaflower Cove. We have a strict three car limit: Two parking spots are available in the driveway for your use, and an additional car can fit parallel to the road at the end of the driveway if a third car is needed.



Other Things to Note:

The house is located in a quiet residential community next to the ocean with other vacation rentals nearby. The driveway is big enough for three cars to park. Street parking is not available, so plan to carpool if needed. A level 2 EV charger is available for guests. Cell phone service is very spotty and sometimes non-existent along highway 1 and at the house. Please plan ahead before you arrive with directions and information. Once you arrive, you can access the wifi to get in contact with the outside world.

Very nice house, with an amazing view from the dining room. Great that the home had solar power because the power was out in the whole town, but the house had power and heat during the entire outage. Beds were all very comfortable and the master had a beautiful en-suite with great bathtub. Owner was easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any issues.

Good location, but walking downtown is not as realistic as it seems. Rooms worked out for 4 separate parties. Bathrooms had to be shared, but it wasn’t an issue.

Gorgeous view of the ocean. We saw harbor seals, a nesting pair of acorn woodpeckers, osprey, deer, and hummingbirds. It was just lovely!

Great Trip to the Cali Coast

The house has great space for all. The views from the top porch are amazing morning, day and night. Convenient location to the stores and shops in Gualala. Local beaches and parks are just minutes away. We had so much fun on the coast and Seaflower Cove was always great to come back to.

The stay was perfect for a very rainy weekend. The house was warm and comfortable for a group of 9. We had everything we needed to cook dinners and breakfasts. Great coffee set up. There are a lot of steps in the home which was good for many of us since we spent so much time indoors and going up and down the stairs made us move around. The stairs were difficult however, for the older members of our party. The split level home afforded great privacy and quiet which was great. We did find a short walk around the neighborhood with great views of the ocean. We drove to other places to actually hike and have beach access. The town of Gualala is a gem and we enjoyed a bit of shopping, good coffee, and yummy seafood. I wish we could have enjoyed the outdoor spaces, but the rain kept us in. We had a lovely time. Thank you hosts for all the amenities.

Beautiful, spacious home!!

The dining area has entire glass walls and ceiling! It allows for the most fabulous view of the ocean. Kitchen was well stocked with all cooking utensils needed. There are great views from all of the rooms. I was able to find privacy throughout the house even though we had several people staying. The town was so close we were able to walk there and did several times. I will be booking this house again!!

Ocean views in every room

Absolutely gorgeous views in a comfortable home. Worked well for our large family. The house is four stories and has a large amount of stairs which is definitely something to be aware of before renting. There is no beach access from the house but you can drive about a mile to a very nice beach.

Needs some attention

We had a great time and the hosts were accommodating. Lots of room and a beautiful view. No top sheets on some of the beds. Told that the housekeepers like it that way. ‘’ European Style” whatever that is. The home needs a good overall cleaning. Downstairs bunk room you could see mouse droppings between wall and bed. Stained throw pillows in the living room and needs new cooking utensils. We don’t like to give negative reviews but you need to know what you are walking into. We will go back to Sea Ranch next time. The hosts did let us check in early which we were happy about.

We are very glad you had a great time, and happy to hear that you agree that we work very hard to be accommodating to our guests. We are shocked by the 3 star review, especially as our other recent guests have left glowing reviews and weren’t made aware of issues during the stay. We take seriously the issues you have raised and appreciate the feedback on the pillows and kitchen utensils...we agree that things do tend to get a bit tired at summer’s end after the busy season and we will replace and restock during the slow season this winter (we will also be replacing the carpet and refinishing cabinets in the kitchen to keep up on regular maintenance items). We do have a pest professional come by the house monthly for bugs and critters, we have not had any other reports of issues from other guests but will relay your note to our service provider to make sure things are properly sealed. Thank you for staying with us!
