About this property
Gualala 2BR oceanfront blufftop home with hot tub — sleeps 4
Summary:
Pacific spray and blufftop privacy on the cliffs above Gualala — soak in the private hot tub overlooking the water, grill on the spacious deck, and keep the living-room binoculars handy for gray whale season. A wood-burning fireplace warms foggy evenings. Sleeps 4 in 2 bedrooms, minutes from the river mouth and downtown dining.
The Space:
Pacific spray and bluff-top privacy define this Gualala oceanfront home — a private hot tub, spacious deck with grill, wood-burning fireplace, and binoculars for whale season from the living room. Two bedrooms sleep 4 on the cliffs above town.
GUALALA RIVER AND CLIFFS
Nestled where the Gualala River meets the Pacific, downtown dining, art galleries, and Gualala Point Regional Park sit minutes away — kayak the river mouth, hike coastal bluffs, and tidepool before returning to the hot tub overlooking the water.
INSIDE THE BLUFFTOP LAYOUT
The full kitchen, wood-burning fireplace, and deck grill keep meals and evenings anchored to the view — binoculars stay handy for gray whales December through April when spouts cross the horizon below.
EVENINGS ON THE DECK
The spacious deck and grill face the Pacific for al fresco dinners; the wood-burning fireplace takes over when the marine layer rolls in.

Choose from 2 bedrooms. 2 bedrooms sleep 4.

Thank you, Karen! We're thrilled you enjoyed the spectacular view. Your feedback means a lot to us, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another memorable stay!
Loved our stay, the view was even better than the pictures would suggest. Really felt like our stay here helped us rest, and recharge. Will be dreaming of the back deck for a long time.
We had a wonderful time staying at the Cliff House. The views are amazing from the deck. The hot tub was comfortable and soothing after a few hours of warming it up to optimal temperature from a starting temperature of 76. The King bed in main bedroom is comfortable, and that bathroom is large and convenient. We appreciated the reasonably priced option on our stay for late checkout at 2pm as well. Would definitely stay again in the future.
A slice of heaven. An amazing place. A top notch property from check in to check out. Reluctantly sharing the review because we would love to keep it a secret.
Great views; condition in some areas needs improvement. See the pics below.

Beautiful Home Beautiful View
Loved that the great room and both bedrooms had floor to ceiling windows that looked out to the ocean. Positively gorgeous! We have stayed in a lot of homes but this was incredible. Will definitely be coming back.
The views are spectacular, and the privacy of the home made for a very relaxing stay. We had an issue on check-in day when we didnt realized there was no hot water until 8 in the evening. But the Maintenance man, who was very kind,came out right away to resolve this and it did not put a damper on our stay. I would definitely recommend to anyone, and would even love to stay again one day.
