La Costiera | Ocean & Bluff Views w/ Hot Tub

Summary:
This 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom 2-story home is perched on the Bluff of the Pacific Ocean.

The Space:
La Costiera features oversized windows allowing for natural lighting and panoramic ocean views, vaulted open-beam ceilings, and a bonus inside viewing area perfect for pulling out the binoculars and watching for birds or whales. This prime location is great for the nearby Del Mar Rec center where you can enjoy swimming and tennis. You will also find yourself situated at The Sea Ranch's north end, and just 5 minutes away from Gualala shops and restaurants.

The bright and spacious living room is upstairs and has plush seating options gathered around a mounted 32" flat screen smart TV. High-speed, fiberoptic WiFi is also provided to make you feel at home. If the coastal breeze picks up at night light the woodstove to warm yourself and create a cozy ambiance. Lounge chairs face out towards the blue waters offering the perfect spot to read or nap. The washer and dryer are tucked away in the garage. A half bathroom is also available to share.

The well-equipped kitchen has updated appliances and ample counter space for a chef to prepare anything they desire. Whip up anything from a yummy treat to a gourmet dinner. Call your guests to the dining table with seating for four to have a home cooked meal together. If you prefer to soak up every minute in the beautiful nature The Sea Ranch has to offer, step outside onto the balcony. The balcony overlooks the ocean and has a charcoal BBQ and outdoor dining set.

The coastal inspired master bedroom is furnished with a King bed, sitting area, and private deck. The attached master bathroom has a shower/tub combo and dual sinks. Down the hall is the first guest bedroom with a Queen bed, and private deck. The second guest bedroom is great for kids and has 2 Twin beds. There is a full guest bathroom with a standalone shower and dual sinks.

The front deck is a great hangout spot for everyone to hop in the hot tub and take a deep soak. This is also a great place to stay warm while you stargaze.

The Sea Ranch is a planned community with over 3000 acres featuring: The Historic Sea Ranch Chapel, The Sea Ranch lodge (restaurant and shopping), a 50-mile trail system with 6 public beach access points, dog park, and 3 recreation centers with outdoor pools, locker rooms, half-basketball court, and tennis courts (amenities vary with each center) for guest use. RV's, trailers, or mobile homes are strictly not allowed.

The Sea Ranch facility reservations for pool and tennis are available on the Sea Ranch Association website. The trails and beaches are open.

Please read the terms and conditions carefully. An e-signed rental agreement and damage waiver are required upon confirming your reservation.

Escape to the Coast

Our family had a wonderful stay at La Costiera and the hosts were fantastic. Property was clean, tidy, comfy with a stocked kitchen. Only negative was the heating element was nonfunctional in the hot tub - kids were disappointed. But management was quick to assess and offered us a refund for the inconvenience. Wonderful home base to explore the region. Easy access to sandy beaches and tide pools beaches. Discovered plenty of treasures that had drifted onto the shore. Neighborhood is very safe and homes are spread out for privacy. The community recreation centers are fantastic for swimming or sitting in the sauna as long as you are comfortable with some choosing to sit in the buff next to you. Highly recommend this home to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life.

A Relaxing Getaway

We had a great stay. We all enjoyed the beautiful sunsets and views from the big windows on the upper level. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of utensils and had more then enough cutlery. Also I appreciated the prompt responses each time I had a question. I look forward to our next trip! Thank you!

Unprofessional Management

Management sent us a text that should have had codes to enter the home, however, the text had no codes attached. We had to get back in our cars and drive a short distance to get our package and keys. The morning after our arrival the management asked us for a rating but only wanted a 5 star. I asked them to please stop texting, they replied "the text is automated." I mentioned their reply wasn't and didn't need to be sent. They continued texting instead of just allowing us time to enjoy our short stay. They even sent a final text just to say they received our request to stop texting. How foolish and unprofessional. As promised, our friend will write another review in their magazines about this experience, including the property address and all of the text messages that were sent to us. The home was beautiful and we would stay again with different management. Disclaimer: this message is not allowed to be used in part. Only the full unaltered message may be used.

Lovely home for a windy weekend

We have stayed at close to a dozen different properties in Sea Ranch over the years, and this house is a clear favorite we will definitely be returning to. The layout of the house was great for our group of friends, with the three bedrooms and two bathrooms (one in the primary bedroom, one shared for the other two) on the ground floor and the kitchen and living area on the second floor with views of the bluffs and ocean. The bedrooms were cool, dark, and quiet for restful sleep, and the open upstairs area was perfect for reading, playing board games, and cooking during our stay. The hot tub is sheltered in an enclosed patio, making it comfortable even on windy nights (of which there are many, at Sea Ranch!). One note we made for future trips to this property that other renters might benefit from--while some essentials are provided, supplies at this property were more minimal than other homes we have experienced in the area. Next time, we will bring cooking oil, salt & pepper, paper towels, and extra dish towels/hot tub towels with us. (This home had no oil, pepper but no salt, a single roll of paper towels, two small dish towels, and only four hot tub towels while we had five people in our party.) We were able to pick up some things at the small market in Gualala, but our trip would have been even more perfect if we had known ahead of time to throw the additional few things into the car!

Great stay - highly recommend

We were very impressed with this property. It was extremely clean, spacious and comfortable. The views of the ocean were breathtaking, we saw whales from the living room, and the surroundings were very quiet - a short walking distance to the Gualala Point Regional Park. The hot tub was clean and sheltered from coastal winds. The property managers were very responsive when we reported that we found a hole in a window frame. The key pickup system added 15 minutes to our route but it was easy and well organized. Only downside was the salt deposits on the windows, which limited visibility at sunset. Overall an amazing stay, we will be back!

Our first post-Covid trip

We liked the house so much we extended our stay by a day. Plenty of space to spread out. Nice views. A stone's throw to the trail on the bluff, with good walks in both directions. Would definitely consider renting again.

Amazing spot!

I loved the location of this house near the cliffs. Great kitchen and views. Sitting in the hot tub under the stars was beautiful. The only thing I wasn't aware of was that I couldn't have my mercedes sprinter van parked there and I ended up getting two warnings. If I had known I would have driven a different car.

Poor experience with property management company

The property itself is quite nice and is a wonderful location next to the coast trail and has lovely views. It was disappointing to see the dishwasher not working in a rental for which we were spending a lot of money, but that's not the reason for the low rating. The reason is because of our experience with the local property management company. We called the first evening when we realized the digital thermostat wasn't working. They told us someone would call us in the morning since nothing could be done that night. We got through the night but it was especially hard for the baby since it was so cold and we couldn't put any blankets in his crib (due to SIDS). We called again in the morning and they told us no one could come out until Day 3 which meant we needed to go through another day/night without heat. I asked if they could call another vendor given we had a baby, but they said nothing could be done and just dropped off space heaters. That works during the day when people are in the room, but space heaters are a safety hazard when unattended and can't be left on all night. Again we asked for a rush but they were unable to help. Meanwhile, my husband spent time on the phone with Honeywell (the manufacturer of the thermostat), reviewed some YouTube videos, and tried to fix the problem. He discovered an issue with the panel and safety switch on the furnace and luckily was able to fix it. He also provided a longer-term solution. It was frustrating that they weren't willing to do what was necessary to solve a key problem in the rental (i.e. heat). On the 3rd day the maintenance people came and did what my husband suggested. Since we had also notified them of a dead mouse in the garage, the representative of the property management company accompanied them and disposed of it. We didn't really care about the mouse -- after all you're emersed in nature. We were fine with the broken dishwasher, too, even though we spent a lot of vacation time doing dishes. Yet not doing everything possible to quickly fix the thermostat issue for a family that had a baby sleeping in the home was unacceptable.

The FILTHY MOUSE HOUSE

VRBO Be forewarned; we booked the “La Costiera property” at Sea Ranch, CA. for 2 nights in late September. We now refer to it as the “Mouse House” because there were mouse droppings in all rooms of the house on both floors. The property manager known as “GRAND WELCOME” was of no help when attempting to reach them via their 888 number. The office was closed when my husband returned there but did find a housekeeping supervisor at that location, by the name of Robin D. who gave us her phone number, followed my husband back to the “Mouse House” and took a look. Fortunately for us, she had located two other vacant rentals to show us and we agreed to one of them. In order to keep this review short we omitted many details that all led to a nightmare of trip.

Good Location, house has seen better days.

La Costiera has a great location at the end of a cul de sac at the north end of Sea Ranch and right above the bluff trail. Easy access to whale watching, the golf course and whole length of the bluff trail. We rented through a property management agency and found a lot of the instructions conflicting or out of date. Fortunately they were fairly responsive to our bigger issues. One of those issues was the rather bold mice. We found mice in the kitchen, the living room and the lower bedrooms. So, don't leave your food out. Another issue was the lack of screens on the windows and sliding doors. I think I counted three windows that had screens. All the others didn't have any. And it was warm while we were there, so we opened the windows anyway and found out about the insects, bees and, you guessed it, more mice. Once we got all that sorted out, however, we enjoyed our stay there.

Unbeatable location and views, great layout

Beautiful home. The best we’ve stayed at in Sea Ranch and this is our 5th trip. Three fully enclosed bedrooms with good soundproofing. 2.5 baths. Ocean views as sunsets from the living room, deck and kitchen are incredible. Right on the walking trail and near the Del Mar pool also. Minor gripe was lack of cooking staples like Olive Oil, and saw a few ants in the kitchen. But small price to pay for near-perfection.

Overall a lovely stay!

Beautiful location and views. Some of the screens were missing and the kitchen exhaust fan was broken and the main view windows in the living room were dirty and detracted from the beautiful ocean views. The Weber briquette grill was rusted but to their credit the management company replaced it and provide 2 bags of charcoal briquettes which we appreciated and put to use. Overall we loved the house and enjoyed our stay and only provide this feedback so it will hopefully be even better when we come back!
