Wonderful house for a birthday weekend with friendsIrish beach was stunning and we visited the local fights in the area. The house was well appointed and the hot tub was enjoyed while watching the stars. Would definitely stay again!
We had a lovely stay. Home was clean and well stocked. Beautiful view and a short walk to Irish Beach. Loved the hot tub.

The home is well equipped and comfortable. Sad to see we couldn’t really see the ocean from the hot tub, but it’s not the end of the world. Spacious, beautiful ocean views from most rooms and pet friendly. Access to the private beach was awesome as we had the beach to ourselves!
We rented three nights to see the ocean and enjoy the coast. We had a wonderful time. The home is well equipped for a family or two couples. We took day outings of the area and enjoyed the home evenings and mornings. Terrific neighborhood and location.

From the Owner: "We’re very sorry to hear about your experience with the spa. After receiving your comments, we had the spa inspected. It appeared to be working properly; however, as a precaution, the technician replaced the spa breaker, which he suspected may have been the cause of the problem.
Once again, we sincerely regret that your stay was adversely affected by this issue and appreciate you bringing it to our attention."
It’s a quite spot to enjoy a weekend! Went to the beach for a beach day and enjoyed watching the waves. Loved that I could bring our dog! But he’s a flight risk so I didn’t love that there wasn’t a fence. Great time had by all.

Hi Mr. Hawes, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay! I hope that the info on local fishing was helpful. :-) Looking forward to seeing you on your next visit. Happy Days, Kim
We greatly enjoyed our stay here. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and has a great ocean view, you can even see the lighthouse. Sitting on the deck in the evening taking in the view and listening to the ocean was very nice, including from the hot tub. The key card access to the beach, which is a 5 min drive, is a huge bonus and you can park very close to the beach. It is walking distance, but the access road is steep, driving is probably the better option, especially if you are bringing anything with you. The house is clean and gets lots of light, the beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. We have vacationed in this area for the past 3 years and this was one of our favorite places to stay. Thank you again!

My husband and I love this home and its great views and location. We have been here several times over the past years. We like having Point Area and Elk restaurants nearby as well as a great grocery store nearby. We will be returning.

If you want to feel instantly at home, then this is the place to stay. Very cozy. Has everything you need. A quiet location with a fabulous view of the ocean. Lots of windows. The deck and hot tub were our favorites. Home was very clean. Only drawback was the coffee maker didn't work but we made do. Stayed two nights with my daughter and her mother in law for a girls getaway and this home was perfect with 3 bedrooms! The garden was lovely and having a wood fire at night was enchanting. We would definitely stay here again as we didn't want to leave!! If I owned this home, I wouldn't leave.
When I went back to my email confirmation the listing showed the wrong address, but I think that was a glitch with the site. We got an immediate answer on the phone. Plenty of blankets and supplies. Hot tub gets real hot. Had trouble closing blinds when leaving. A couple were stuck. Warning if you use the microwave for popcorn on popcorn setting, it will burn! Very private and very short walk to beach access. They had some unexpected cool things like the jenga game, puzzles, cool books, some spices, cake mix, a kite, feminine products. I would stay here again for sure.

Thank you for the feedback. We are glad that overall you enjoyed your stay, but do apologize the supplies were not sufficient for your stay! As a valued return quest, we certainly appreciate your recommendations and want you to know the owners have taken action to make your stay a pleasant experience each time you return to Sea Haven. The owners now have new Sea Haven management who will ensure you have a working vacuum cleaner and more supplies during future stays. We look forward to your next visit and hope to assist you in booking a vacation rental in the future that will exceed your expectations.
Beautiful property, well maintained, amazing views. Perfect place for a getaway. Although the house is in a bit of a neighborhood, it is extremely private with strategically placed foliage, and the area is very quiet. Couldn’t even hear traffic from hwy 1, despite it being half a block away. We brought food for most meals, though a drive to point arena (15 minutes) or gualala (30 minutes) can get you to a few tasty options.
Sea Haven was a wonderful foggy remote getaway for our family. A comfortable space for all ages to spread out and chill (tv, games, spa, reading while listening to the ocean), explore the coast, and even do a little necessary work. I was worried about how the beds would be given dated furnishings, but we all slept comfortably. Management answered a question promptly and all was as described. We found everything we needed in the kitchen and were pleasantly surprised at the offerings of the local grocery/hardware.
New England style cottage on California’s North Coast
My family of four enjoyed our four night stay at Sea Haven. The home reminded me a bit of New England beach cottages. It’s very bright during the day thanks to all the windows and skylights. The WiFi, Direct TV, kitchen, laundry machine, and heater worked great. We didn’t try the hot tub.
This place has an amazing view! But in addition to that it is very roomy, has a lovely breakfast nook, and has cute bedrooms. Super clean and family friendly. We loved the hot tub, relaxing on the deck, and sitting in the breakfast nook. The beach nearby is windy, but we went twice in the summer. Be warned, the water is very cold (although kids didn’t seem to mind). Great place to bring a kite, and it was nice that the beach is private access, with hardly anyone there. We loved this spot!
Seriously everything you will need. Amazing view. And very private.
Kitchen is fully stocked with every gadget you may need. Blender, toaster, mixer, food processor, coffee maker. It’s all there. There are a ton of extra blankets and sheets. We arrived to see gorgeous landscaping and stained glass windows. It’s clean and cozy and stocked with games and movies. The couch is a pull out sofa. There is even a little potty seat in the master bathroom. The view of the stars is one I’ve never seen. Completely in polluted by lights from cities. Do yourself the favor and take a beach horseback ride a few miles down at Ross ranch. You will not be disappointed. You’ll ride on the same private beach this home gives you gated access to. There is a small grocery store just a couple of miles down the road as well. When we arrived the home was filled with fresh flowers that were cut from the property. Such a sweet touch. There’s a gorgeous little garden in the back to explore. The lot is lined with trees that have been topped to enjoy the view. Can’t even hardly tell there are neighbors. Michelle the property manager was helpful and even called to check in on us to see if we had arrived yet. It’s private and secluded. The home is within 10 miles of point arena lighthouse. They have amazing walking trails to check out. Thank you for sharing your beach home with us.
We had a ladies weekend that was sublime. The varied spaces on different levels allowed us to create just the mood we wanted each moment of the day. We'll be back.
