Beautiful view and perfect location - kitchen had every appliance and amenity needed. BYO spices, olive oil, etc. Our family enjoyed the easy access to Shell Beach, regular visits from our favorite deer family, and soaking in the hot tub. We have stayed many places at Sea Ranch and this rates as one of the best!

This is a great sea Ranch property. It is a good balance of close to the ocean at a reasonable price. Highway one is right behind the property, but the noise did not bother us. The place is very well updated with lots of great amenities, including an espresso maker. It was very clean and has a great layout. The only thing that was a little hard to use was the outside patio area as there was a lot of dirt on the table and chairs so we did not eat outside. The location is great and it is easy to walk down to the beach.

We had a good experience at Starlight Reach. The one frustration was that there were several basics missing in the kitchen including salt/pepper, sugar, cooking oil or spray, and kleenex. Usually we have found these items at VRBO residences. Since stores are not close, it required a special trip up to Gualala.

Beautiful home

We loved our stay! The house is big, beautiful, and very well maintained. It was very clean, and we enjoyed the hot tub and gourmet kitchen. All I needed was a private chef to make it perfect! Ha ha! We loved walking down to Shell Beach and even just hanging out on the deck. We were sad to leave, one week was just not enough!

Wonderful Family getaway

My family of four stayed a few night at this comfortable Property. The home close to a nice short trail that takes you right down to the beach and also connects to the trails along the cliffs edge. There is a Harbor Seal view area along the trails which was a nice bonus. We picked up food in the town of Gualala(Short distance) and cooked several meals in the well stocked kitchen. In the evenings we played games on the large kitchen table and did some stargazing on the peaceful back deck(Sea Ranch is great for stargazing.) We would love to stay again in the future and explore more of the trails and surrounding area.

Serene and scenic getaway

If you want a place to relax and unwind, Starlight Reach at Sea Ranch is the perfect place. Nice peekaboo view of the Pacific, easy access to beaches and hiking trails, and tranquility. The deck hot tub is very nice, and the barbecue works perfectly. The kitchen has high end appliances and cookware. Gualala is nearby for grabbing a quick bite or getting groceries. The WiFi works well, but there is no cell service when you step outside the door. This made the check-in process a little sketchy, but otherwise we had a wonderful stay.
