Coastal Luxury: Chef Kitchen, Ocean Views, Hot Tub

Summary:

Watch the sunset over the Pacific from your private deck, then soak in the hot tub with the ocean as your soundtrack and the Milky Way overhead. When the fog rolls in, curl up by the fireplace.

At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 100 feet from Sea Ranch's iconic Bluff Trail, this architect-designed home is pure coastal luxury: modern tech, seamless indoor-outdoor living.

The Neighborhood:

Perched along the Sonoma Coast, The Sea Ranch is a nature lover's paradise -- think tidepools, wildflower meadows, and redwood groves at your doorstep.

Getting Around:

Plan for a 2.5-hour drive from San Francisco (Highway 101 to Highway 1). If flying, Santa Rosa's Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) is the closest option at about 90 minutes east. You'll want a car here -- the winding coastal roads are half the adventure.

The outdoor wood-burning fireplace is currently out of order.

This vacation rental is not equipped with air-conditioning. Additional fantastic amenities include gigabit fiber internet with high-speed mesh-WiFi, a Ping-Pong table, workout equipment, and an electric vehicle charger in the garage.



Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.



Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.



December through April is whale season. You may spot gray whales breaching right from the bluff trail nearby. Wildflower season (April-June) transforms the coastal bluffs into a tapestry of color -- worth an extra walk on the trails. Summer offers long days and warm afternoons, though the iconic Sonoma Coast fog often rolls in at sunrise and clears by noon.
