About this property

Magical Hillside Setting with Ocean View

Unit 5 Block 5 Lot 10.. Welcome to Amar el Mar. This lovely home with a view set among towering redwoods is the perfect place to indulge your love of the sea. The sunny deck looking out to the Pacific Ocean is the ideal spot for enjoying tranquil breakfasts, magnificent sunsets and perhaps a bottle of wine.

Curl up to enjoy a fire indoors while watching your favorite shows on DirecTV Now, Netflix or a Blu-ray player, plus high-speed wireless internet. Stretch out on the large window seat and enjoy the ocean view or sit down and enjoy a great book. If you’re dining in, make yourself at home in the well-equipped kitchen or step outside onto the rear deck and fire up the gas grill.

Children and dogs are welcome and there’s plenty of room to play on the decks and in the large yard. It's a short walk to the nearby hiking trail off Crow's Nest Drive. Beaches are on the west side of the Highway, a short drive down the hill.

When the day is done, rest up in one of the three cozy bedrooms, all with queen-size beds. From the lower bedroom it’s only a few steps to the hot tub right outside. The upstairs master bedroom is equipped with it’s own tv and private ocean view deck.

Bed linens and towels are not provided, bring your own or rent them from Beach Rentals.

Ideal forest Sea Ranch place

This place is the best. The sunken living room and built ins make for an extremely cozy hanging-out area, and the fireplace is incredible for nights and cold times. The highlight of the place is the view, you can see the ocean super clearly and the sun sets right between the trees flanking the two sides of the creek. Incredible place! Comfy beds, clean hot tub, basically perfect
Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025

Peaceful tranquility.

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: We were so impressed. This home is tucked into the redwoods with an amazing view of the ocean. We felt a sense of home immediately. Everything was clean and well stocked. The home was open and cozy at the same time. My only complaint.. wish we stayed longer. We didn’t want to leave. We would rent this home again.

Lovely 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: Our family of 5 had a lovely stay at Amar El Mar. It was our first stay in Sea Ranch and we can’t wait to go back. The house had everything we needed, and then some. Location seemed great - super close to the lodge, Moonraker, and Black Point Cove (wonderful beach). It felt like living in a tree house, while only a short drive from the beach. Absolutely magical. Would absolutely recommend this place and stay again!

Tranquil

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: Loved the seclusion, swooned over the ocean view. The house was perfect for our getaway. We loved all the trees and wildlife around the home. We had a perfect ocean view and we were able to see whales 🐳 frolicking. The home had an amazingly well appointed kitchen. We spent most of our time on the deck soaking in the peace and quiet. Would highly recommend this home.

Amazing private rental

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: I’ve stayed in several Sea Ranch houses over the years, and this was easily one of my favorites. The location feels so private and like you’re truly deep in the forest, surrounded by trees—while still being only a short drive from the beach and with a stunning ocean view. The house was super comfortable for six people (three couples)—each room felt private, with adequate bathroom space as well. The deck is huge and the hot tub worked perfectly. I think the highlight was the kitchen—it was unbelievably well equipped with every tool and small appliance you could want. We cooked every night and never ran into anything the kitchen didn’t have that we needed. There were also basic pantry and baking items (flour, sugar, olive oil, etc.) and some basic spices. Plenty of parking as well! Our favorite activities were visiting Annapolis Winery just up the hill, and spending time at Black Point Beach. The house is also super close to the lodge and access to the Sea Ranch trail system along the bluffs. All our communication with the rental company was great, and it was easy to pick up keys after hours. We paid for linen service and there were plenty of towels and extra blankets. I could not recommend this place more, especially for a family or small group!
