About this property

Expansive Ocean Views, Totally Remodeled, 5 Min to Village

This stunning, single-level architecturally designed 5B/4.5 bath, 3,500 square feet newly remodeled home overlooks the Pacific Ocean, with white water views and sounds of the surf brought in from floor to ceiling windows. The large bright chef's kitchen with 6 burner gas stove, double oven, two sinks and wine refrigerator, overlooks the spacious living room and wood burning fireplace, all opening up to an expansive deck and fantastic views of the ocean. Dine outdoors on the deck with the large gas grill and dining table, or become mesmerized with the sights and sounds of the ocean as you relax on the chaise lounges or conversation seating area. Privacy abounds on the 1.07 acre lot, near a grove of immense redwood trees forging their path to the ocean. Sink into the large adirondack chairs with your favorite book, on a patio overlooking a quiet, peaceful and colorful garden, where quail and song birds delight in their paradise. A garden path leads up to a private bench. Another path leads to the new hot tub with powerful jets and a special Cal Spas ozonator cleaning system. A bathroom with hand shower opens up to the side deck near the hot tub, offering a clean-up area after a romp on one of the many beautiful local beaches. Three of the bedrooms and the office have ocean views and open to the deck. One bedroom overlooks the garden. The fifth bedroom suite has a separate entrance, with forest and ocean views. Walk down to the end of the cul-de-sac and pass the "private property" sign (for our community only) to the bluff-top and view the secret cove, where a stream falls down the rocks to merge with the ocean, as the waves crash onto the rocks below. Or cross the small bridge to find the secret meadow with another meditation bench overlooking the cove. With four large Smart TVs with an extensive selection of satellite channels, Quinta da Bela Vista is a great place to relax, recharge and restore. Aproveite a Vida! (Note: This home is not appropriate for children under the age of seven years.)

Fabulous Home!

Our group of six family members gathered to celebrate recent birthdays. What a perfect place for our get-together! The house is beautiful, roomy and well-appointed with everything we could have wanted. There is a very large deck with amazing views of the coast. We loved the location - so close to great trails and parks, as well as the shops and restaurants in town. The spacious, well-supplied kitchen and comfortable beds were appreciated by all of us. We highly recommend this house.

Spectacular stay

You will love this house from the moment you pull up into the beautifully landscaped gardens and then open the door to the stunning views. The main bedroom and bathroom are amazing with a double headed shower and huge walk in closet. The kitchen has the most up to date appliances. We stayed with adult children and their grandparents and I can't say enough about the house, the deck, the neighborhood and location. You will not be disappointed.

What an awesome property

Us: Five siblings and spouses getting together to celebrate one couple's milestone Anniversary. The house is gorgeous, the views are spectacular. Diane was great to work with the whole way through. Very responsive to questions, great communications. The ten of us were there comfortably for the four days. Kitchen is well stocked and there were no issues cooking for this many people. Location is also great. Less than 5 minutes to Mendocino, 10 or so to Fort Bragg. Neighbors are friendly and everyone waves to each other in the community. All said, I heartily recommend the property.

Mendocino Retreat

Our stay at Quinta Da Bela Vista was absolutely wonderful. The house is beautiful, warm and welcoming. Ocean views are stunning. Diane has thought of everything that guests might possibly need during their stay. It would be perfect for a family holiday gathering. The view is gorgeous, location prime and the outside area, including the jacuzzi are all fabulous. Communication could not have been better. This is quite honestly the best rental we’ve ever experienced.

Very roomy and well furnished. Very comfortable for a large gathering. Excellent kitchen, and well stocked. Great location on the Mendocino coast, near the town of Mendocino and close to Fort Bragg. Wine tasting about an hour away. Couldn’t have been nicer.

Wonderful place with amazing views!

We enjoyed our stay very much. It was a quiet neighborhood, and the location couldn't have been better. Amazing view of the ocean in every room and the home was equipped with anything you could need, from doggy beds and blankets to a well-supplied kitchen. It was very nicely designed as well. We would definitely stay again.

Home away from Home

This home is by far the perfect choice for families/friends with lots of privacy due to the layout of this beautiful home. The home was spotless inside and out and so welcoming and user friendly. The kitchen is wonderful for making any meals should you decide to. The deck with all various furniture and spa was an added bonus for us. We could not have picked a better home for us. It was beyond comfortable, inviting and we would definitely return. Thank you for sharing you home.

You had me at hello!!

We were so happy with our choice. The home was more beautiful and comfortable than we had hoped. We were visiting family in the area and we all felt like we were at home. The house was exceptionally clean and extremely well stocked!!! The kitchen was amazing and we enjoyed cooking together. This home is in the perfect location so close to downtown Mendocino and a short skip to Fort Bragg! This was the most user friendly home owners I have ever used. They were prompt in responding to me at anytime and kept things short and sweet. We cannot wait to go back. I do have a question for the owners ... I see there is a space downstairs is this another part of the house to rent? Asking because we plan on renting again in the summertime. Thanks Diane and family for sharing your home, sending you a big virtual hug- Julie Brabo & Family

Beautiful and Comfortable Home in a stunning location!

Our extended family of 6 had an amazing Thanksgiving long weekend at this beautiful home. The deck and views as well as the hot tub brought much relaxation. The neighborhood path on the cliff made for amazing family Christmas card photos! Kitchen was well appointed for preparing our Thanksgiving feast and we enjoyed lovely evenings by the fire playing games and watching holiday movies. Easy drive into town as well for shopping and an amazing dinner on Friday. House was clean, well stocked and our dog loved the dog bed with blanket! Our host was very responsive and provided a ton of great info before our arrival. Pretty much a perfect Thanksgiving holiday!!

About the host

Hosted by Diane Steinhilber

Host profile image
Meet MoJo, our Chiweenie. He and his fur brothers, Sterling the Yorkie and Walter the Poodle-Bichon, love to vacation with us in Mendocino. Hikes in the redwoods, romps on the beach at Big River, snacks and naps on the patio, and cuddling in front of the fireplace....it's dog heaven, and people heaven, too.

Why they chose this property

Whether watching a storm roll across the Pacific while reading Walt Whitman's Proud Music of a Sea Storm..."Of winds and woods and mighty ocean waves; A new composite orchestra...And Man and Art, with Nature fused again," or the migration of the gray whales, the landscape of Mendocino is astoundingly beautiful and dramatic, a visual inspiration to artists, writers, poets and all of us who appreciate the beauty of untamed nature. Though Mendocino is a great place for family vacations, use caution with small dogs and small children in areas with large unexpected "sneaker" waves, heavy undercurrents, and bluffs with steep cliffs below. Mendocino weather is mild year round, but cooler than typical southern California beach weather. Layered clothing is recommended, and a moisture repellent jacket in winter.
