About this property

Gualala 3BR oceanfront home with fireplace & hot tub close to town

Summary:

Perched high on the Gualala cliffs with sweeping 180-degree ocean views, this seaside sanctuary is built for slowing down — sunrise coffee as the horizon glows, starlit soaks in the private hot tub, waves below as you fall asleep. Newly installed flooring freshens the open living space around the gas fireplace. Sleeps 7 in 3 bedrooms.



The Space:

Where the ocean meets the sky, your getaway begins!



Perched high on the cliffs of Gualala, this seaside sanctuary offers sweeping 180-degree ocean views that create the perfect backdrop for unforgettable memories. Imagine sipping sunrise coffee while the horizon glows, soaking in the private hot tub beneath a sky full of stars, and resting peacefully as the ocean’s waves lull you to sleep in cozy beds. Every detail here invites you to slow down, connect, and savor the beauty of the sea.



Inside, the home is designed for comfort and connection. Newly installed flooring in much of the home adds a fresh, modern touch, while the open living space invites everyone to gather around the gas fireplace. A Smart TV provides easy entertainment after long beach days, and the fully equipped kitchen — complete with a new dishwasher — makes it easy to cook meals together, whether it’s a hearty breakfast before a day of exploring or a relaxing dinner with the ocean as your soundtrack.



Outdoors, the two-level deck is made for both quiet reflection and family fun. Watch whales migrate in the distance, view hawks catching a drift up close, and enjoy the ever-changing colors of the Pacific.



GUALALA AND THE COAST



Orres Restaurant just five miles away. St. Orres restaurant is within 3 miles.



Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring for wildflower season -- the hills above Gualala and the river trails burst with lupine and California poppies. June through September brings the warmest weather. Morning fog is part of the charm -- it usually clears to reveal blue skies.

Hot tub amazing, clean living spaces, quick responses when needed (kitchen had ants but they brought traps very quickly), and best view. Nice and walkable to town!

Maggie, that view from Lookout Point really is something special, and we're glad it delivered for you. Thank you for being so gracious about the ants, and for giving us the chance to get those traps in quickly. We know even a small thing like that can dampen a stay, and we're relieved it didn't. Hearing that the hot tub, the cleanliness, and the walkability to town all hit the mark means a lot to us. We genuinely appreciate you sharing your experience.

This house was right on the ocean! It's was super clean and had everything you need for nice stay. The only down side is there is no available laundry. We used the hot tub every evening! It was a perfect way to unwind and relax! The view from the deck was stupid beautiful! You find yourself at a loss for words to describe the scene before you! Every sunset, a masterpiece! The bed was very comfortable. This was a perfect place to decompress and chill out!

Everything about our stay was excellent, but the best part was definitely the ocean front view. The house was very well taken care of and cozy. We spent a lot of our time on the deck taking in the stunning view. I would definitely come here again. The upstairs bed was very comfortable!

The place was great wonderful view plenty of room. The only issues we had, which were very minor was a few burners on the stove, not working which they offered to come and fix right away other than that fabulous place could use a little TLC on the outside appearance.!

This is my second stay here. Beautiful place. Can’t beat the view. And the house is spacious enough for several people to stay comfortably. It’s not the poshest home on the coast but we were very happy with it. That’s what keeps the rent reasonable. It’s cozy and comfy. The hot tub was great. And the location is fantastic!

Take advantage of the beautiful view as much as you can. Gualala and public trails are so close. ...

Incredible view and excellent staff when assistance was needed

The view was unbelievable. We came from Florida and thoroughly enjoyed the cool temperatures gazing at the Pacific Ocean. It was magical. We did have some questions about the property and called Vacasa and they were 100% responsive. Herb did an excellent job of helping us. We would love to come back again.
