Beautiful home, relaxing scenery

The house was perfect for a weekend getaway to unplug and experience the beauty of the California coastline. The house was well provisioned -- kitchen tools, linens, etc.

Wonderful

We’ve stayed in many different places in Mendocino over the years, but this home is far and away the best! Our parting gift today was sitting in the bedroom and watching the dolphins play outside our window. The house and its views are incredible. We will definitely return as it is our new house of choice.

Marvelous Sea-Side Get-Away!!

This was the best vacation home we have ever stayed in! Everything about it was awesome: The views, the sounds, the living room (with fireplace), the bedroom (with fireplace), the hot tub, the spa tub (with great views) the closeness to great dining... everything! The serenity is unparalleled! The check-in and check-out procedures were easy to do. The communications with the property management were easy and timely. We recommend this home to any couple looking for an absolutely romantic stay on the ocean bluffs of the Mendocino Area!

Reviewer Comments: Everything about this property is wonderful, the views could not be better, the house is well equipped, it is a location that you just want to spend all day in looking at the ocean cliffs. The outside decks are also amazing and great for happy hour. Only desire is to have another bedroom so could share it with a friend.

Our Favorite Place on the Planet

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My partner and I have been enjoying Ocean Splendor twice per year for the past several years. The property is beautiful, more than words can convey and the energy of the property and home cannot compare with anywhere. I regret that Ocean Splendor is booked for the next year entirely, and we'll not be able to come back in 2022. Ocean Splendor lives within us now. Do not miss your opportunity to experience this divinity when you have the chance.

Perfect stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Truly the highlight of our 2 1/2 week trip down the coast of Oregon and part of northern CA! Everything about Ocean Splendor was terrific. It was so clean and bright and beautiful .... and the view was stunning. We did not want to leave and we are definitely wanting to return and stay longer next time! For the most part, we gathered up groceries in Mendocino and at Princess Seafood in Fort Bragg and stayed in .... just didn't want to leave! But we did have a fabulous dinner at Wild Fish and great lunch at Princess Seafood on the wharf.

Hard to beat

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is special. The setting, the views, the house itself are all exceptional. It’s about 3.5 miles south of Mendocino, with a long driveway off of Hwy 1. Exiting the driveway left onto Hwy 1 is a little dicey because the views both ways are a bit blind. We turned right and made a upturn using a driveway a little further south. No big deal. When we entered the house we realized it hadn’t been cleaned. We called the office and they sent someone out promptly.
