About this property

Pelican Point -- Oceanfront Blufftop on 1 Acre, Hot Tub, Dog Friendly!

Welcome to Pelican Point, your dog-friendly oceanfront escape in Gualala! This bluff-top home features a private hot tub overlooking the Pacific. Whale and bird watch from the lawn, listen to the waves from Adirondack chairs, nap in the hammock, and enjoy sundowners at the log-cut table on your private point of land.

The home sits on a secluded lane where traffic is neither seen nor heard. Located in a micro-climate known as the “Banana Belt,” the fog often stays offshore and the property remains sunny and quiet. This gem is just 2.5 hours from the Golden Gate Bridge.

And the indoors are as inviting as the outside! This newly-remodeled home has two spacious bedrooms (plus a queen-sized pullout couch), two bathrooms, a fully-stocked kitchen, a separate TV nook, and two new gas fireplaces.

Pelican Point offers guests:

• Two large oceanfront decks, both with panoramic ocean views
• Private hot tub and outdoor hot-water shower
• Huge picture windows boasting stunning views at every turn
• Large, peaceful bedrooms with queen beds made up with crisp Brooklinen and Parachute linens
• Malin + Goetz toiletries
• Gas grill on the deck
• Teak outdoor dining table seating six
• Dog-friendly, on 1+ acre of land
• Fast Wi-Fi for remote work or streaming

Although it is a private, end-of-the-road property, the Point is only five minutes from town. Nearby attractions include:

• Cooks Beach (4 min) - Quiet, hidden sandy beach with bluffs above and tide pools below
• Downtown Gualala (5 min) – Local markets, art galleries, and restaurants
• Gualala Bluff Trail (5 min) – Child and dog-friendly scenic stroll hugging the coast and riverbank
• Gualala Arts Center (6 min) - Local art, live music and art classes, set in the redwoods
• River Bend Kayaks (6 min) – Kayak and canoe rentals along the Gualala River
• Gualala Point Regional Park (8 min) – Bluff trails and beach access, with minimal crowds
• Bowling Ball Beach (15 min) – Famous for its rock formations at low tide
• Sea Ranch (10-20 min) – Restaurants, impressive community theater, trails and beaches
• Point Arena Lighthouse (28 min) – Historic and beautiful lighthouse and a charming museum
• Annapolis Winery (30 min) – Winery in the redwoods overlooking the ocean, featuring hand-crafted ultra-premium wines

Whether you’re soaking in the hot tub, hiking the hillside and beach trails, or curling up fireside, Pelican Point is where rugged beauty meets comfort. Perfect for couples, families, artists, or remote workers craving peace and ocean views.

A note about safety:
The beauty of the Pacific at Pelican Point is magnified by the rugged bluff-top terrain. We have chosen not to fence the yard so as not to spoil its natural beauty. Because of that, guests must be aware of the danger of getting too close to the edge. With over an acre of land, there is plenty of room for children and dogs to run and play without getting too close to the bluff.

Because this is a natural, unfenced bluff-top property, by renting the property you agree that you understand the dangers of the bluff-tops and that they are in a natural state, with no barriers or signs at the top. You agree to fully release, indemnify, and hold the owners harmless if an injury involving the bluffs occurs to you, your family, or your guests.

Cameras:
There are two exterior security cameras on the outside of the home, both of which point outward toward the street. Neither camera captures the interior of the home, hot tub, or backyard.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We loved our time at Pelican Point! The views were incredible and the house had everything we needed to be cozy and comfortable during a mostly rainy stay. The fireplaces and candles kept the house feeling warm and cozy. We cooked all of our meals there and the kitchen was well stocked with the equipment we needed. Sangeeta was lovely- very helpful. I highly recommend this property for people looking to relax and be surrounded by incredible natural beauty.

My wife, daughter, and I enjoyed a short getaway at Pelican Point, and it exceeded our expectations. The house has a modest exterior, but the moment we stepped inside, we were stunned by the breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean. Everything was spotless, spacious, and well-appointed with great amenities.We had a phenomenal time! Although we hadn’t planned to cook, the setting inspired us to prepare a special meal to wrap up our trip.If you’re looking for a relaxing escape with unforgettable views, Pelican Point is the perfect choice. We’ll definitely be booking again!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in Gualala last week. The house was beautiful—spotlessly clean, warm, and incredibly cozy, with lovely fireplaces, a spacious kitchen, and a large backyard. The ocean views were simply stunning; waking up and seeing the ocean right from the bed was such a special experience and something we’ll never forget.Our host, Sangeeta, was exceptionally kind and welcoming. The check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow, and there was a well-organized binder in the house with everything we needed for our stay. On top of that, we were greeted with the sweetest, most thoughtfully put-together welcome package—it genuinely touched us and made us feel so cared for.This home made our trip truly special, and we would absolutely love to return. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful coastal getaway .
