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.

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.

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.

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!
