    Only two of us were able to enjoy the house. My brother-in-law is in critical condition and his daughter and grandkids decided to stay home. Then, my husband needed medical attention so we left after 2 nights. It was too lonely anyway. Only used one bedroom, 1 1/2 bathrooms and kitchen so cleaning fees were excessive. A tv upstairs would have been nice.

    Felicia V from San Francisco, California recommends this vacation rental

    This is the third year we’ve made Saltwater Serenity our summer Sea Ranch home, and we love it more every time. The home is so wonderfully spread out— with the huge master suite, two large bedrooms, a big den with a pull-out bed, and so much additional space upstairs — that each member of the family felt like they had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the phenomenal views.

    Terrific kitchen stocked with every cooking tool you think you might need — even a waffle iron, which our little one appreciated. The den has lots of games and puzzles, including a few board game that looked brand new. The home even offered a brand new deluxe sand toy set. The hot tub seems to be a new, top-of-line model. Lots of familiar perks, and new ones too this time!

    We loved the ocean views from the top of the hill. We also saw birds, rabbits, foxes, and even a few deer steps from the back patio.

    Easy access to trails, and a 5 minute walk to Del Mar recreation center, which we used daily to swim and play pickle ball.

    Amazing home all around!

    a guest from Sonoma, CA recommends this vacation rental

    We celebrated my husband’s 50th birthday with six other adults. We stayed four nights, cooked each night, and used the hot tub, the trails, and soaked in the view.

    The rental company was very clear about this, though I would not consider the pull out bed a bed for anyone. It is an old couch, with a very thin mattress, on the classic metal frame. We ended up not using it and brought our own blowup And this did not make it very comfortable for a couple. I would consider this a max six person home.
    The house was pretty clean, but there was quite a bit of hair and dirt on the floors under furniture that hadn’t been moved in a while. The furniture is very dated and the decor is very world market Seaside.
    Everything else was in working condition, and it was one of the cleanest hot tubs we’ve ever seen.
    The kitchen is well stocked, and works well for a large group.

    This place has a lovely kitchen with everything you need to cook while glancing out at the ocean when chopping food or viewing the grove of trees while doing dishes. The dinning table plus two big comfy chairs in the living room are two places inside to take in the lovely view of the ocean and meadow. The beds are super comfortable, the hot tub is clean and wonderful. This was our third stay and want to continue to come back to keep the tradition going.

    Saltwater Serenity is a beautiful property. It was well maintained and clean. The view of the ocean was fabulous. The home is located at the top of a hill so your view is not obstructed. It's not a long walk to the cliffs, but you do have to walk up hill when you return. We would definitely rent this property in the future.

    a guest from San Jose, CA recommends this vacation rental

    Our six night stay at Saltwater Serenity was most enjoyable. The house was well appointed with quality furnishings and appliances. We loved the warming drawer in the kitchen to keep food warm as we cooked for our group of 6. Three generations were here. We hiked to the beach where we enjoyed flying kites, walking the beach, and wading in the ocean, and watching the waves. The only concerns we had were the very hot temperatures of the water in the shower of master bath which we were unable to turn down and the temperature of the hot tub which was 104(also unable to turn down). There were no instructions for hot tub or shower which was very complicated. The owners must be very tall, as I am short and found all the furniture in the second floor to be too big for me to sit in comfortably. We should have brought games or a puzzle. Most homes we had stayed in before had them, but of course that was before COVID. Next time we will know. We did actually think the house would be closer to the beach from the white water ocean views description when this was actually from the second story of the house. It was a nice size for a group of 6 where we could be together or do our own thing if we wanted alone time.

    Lovely, relaxing long weekend with family over the Mother's Day holiday. House has a great view of the ocean. We were concerned about proximity to Hwy 1 which was absolutely not an issue during our stay. We played nerf baseball in the front forest which was a hoot as the nerf ball bounced off the treesand fell through the branches making it a crazy pinball type experience. The bedrooms downstairs are quiet and warmly well appointed. The living and kitchen area upstairs was warm and welcoming.

    Santina P from Castro Valley, CA recommends this vacation rental

    Overall, it was the perfect COVID getaway. The home was super clean and spacious enough for all of us (family of 4 and a family of 2) to find our own little nook to hang out in without stepping on each other. The house is close enough for easy morning and sunset walks to the water. The hot tub was a perfect escape in the evenings - and a great way to watch the stars. The dreamy gourmet kitchen was well-equipped and fun to cook in (although if you're short, the island is pretty much useless as a space to prep). The upper deck is very small - literally just big enough for the 2 chairs that are there, but the swivel chairs in front of the big picture window were perfect alternatives for those of us who wanted to stay a little warmer. The bedrooms were comfortable, although the master bed was super firm - which is great if you like that, but not so great for those of us who don't. The master bath was amazing - the price was worth that alone! Others commented on the entertainment system and we thought 'well we're smart - we'll be able to figure it out.' We were wrong. It seems part of it isn't even connected, and when it is connected, you need to then have a password to get any further in the process..... and it's not the Wifi password. It wasn't important enough that we wanted to call anyone about it, but was a bit disappointing, considering we had 3 teenage boys with us. That was probably the only issue we ran into. Other than that, it was a perfect stay, and we'd love to return again some day.

    This is a beautiful,comfortable home with great views from virtually every room. The kitchen is large enough to accommodate multiple cooks at the same time and is well stocked with pots and pans and nice appliances. The beds are very comfortable. We were a party of 7 adults so one couple slept on the pull-out couch in the media room which was fine. However,the media room is not enclosed so there is not much privacy for those sleeping there. The hot tub on the back deck is large and also has a great view of the ocean. We totally enjoyed our 3-day weekend at the house.

    The view can’t be beat! The large table for big family gatherings is wonderful, the two extra-large easy chairs that spin 360 degrees and point toward whale spouts is fantastic. The hot tub is perfectly placed, and the rooms are all very comfy. Our family has rented this house, among others in Sea Ranch, for twenty consecutive years now.
    With time comes wear....and this home has its share of quirks—toilets that don’t reliably flush most of the time; a dishwasher that has gone amok; exhaust fumes
    that tend to gather downstairs, and areas that don’t reliably get addressed (mold on the shower curtain).
    Sadly, our family has decided as a group that it is time to ‘move on’ to another rental property next October. We will cherish many fond memories of our time spent at Saltwater Serenity, as well as all of Sea Ranch, and will continue to gather once a year in our favorite spot along our beautiful California coastline!

    • Manager Responded on 11/11/2019

      Thank You for the kind words about our home. We are sorry you experienced some difficulties during your stay. We have looked at the issues and hopefully addressed the problems. We found that the heater needed to be replaced. While not clear how the dishwasher went amok, we tested the appliance, performing several dish cycles that didn’t reveal any problems. Additional instructions for the dishwasher have been placed in the kitchen. The two drawer dishwasher can not be opened once started because of it’s design. If this is attempted an error will occur. The toilets also performed fine. It’s unclear if a change in toilet paper or the age of the toilet presented an issue. We have changed out two of the toilets as a test. We appreciate knowing when things happen and strive to correct them quickly. From the Homeowner

    I was wondering if this would be too far from the bluff, but the location was great and only a short walk through a hedgerow. Being on a slight rise, it gives wide views from every room. The house has lots of bells and whistles, more than necessary, but fun, like a totally gourmet kitchen, fancy hot tub and steam shower. The only negative was there was no guide for the TV/DVD set up and no remote for the DVD, but there was a warning they would charge $500 if you messed it up which wasn’t helpful. The decor was Pottery Barn comfy, the beds were good. The bathroom for the middle bedroom was across the hall and that room got noise from upstairs, but otherwise all the rooms were very nice. There was no road noise even though it’s very close to Hwy 1.

    We are long time visitors of Sea Ranch and have been at quite a few different homes over the years...this one blew them out of the water. It had absolutely everything we needed and more. We stayed in the master suite and it had the most comfortable bed I think I have ever slept in. The steam shower now seems like something I need at my own home. Not one room without an incredible ocean view! We had so much fun hanging out with our friends. Just wish we booked it longer. One thing we did notice was that everything seemed to be made for tall people (which I am not at 5'3") so I was on my tip toes brushing my teeth in the master. :) also there is some construction going on next door that we were not aware of when we booked but it wasn't too loud. We would love to go back though and stay longer! Thank you!!

    We rented this home for some clients visiting from the Bay Area -- it was their first experience in The Sea Ranch and they thoroughly enjoyed the home, the area and the views of the waves coming into Walk on Beach. Despite the dramatic stormy weather they took full advantage of the proximity to the bluff trail for a morning run in the rain. They said they couldn't have enjoyed their stay anymore than they did -- and were amazed by the ocean views from all of the rooms in the home!

    We love this home. It is a wonderful escape to the reality of how life can be when we all slow down for a bit. The kitchen is outstanding and the amenities are 5 star. There is a therapeutic sense to this home which invites meditation, mindfulness, relaxation and all of the tools (hot tub, steam shower, over size tub in master) are included to allow this process to happen. This is our second time and we will be returning. I've been bringing my children to the Sea Ranch for over 20 years. We now have only one time yearly when everyone can coordinate schedules to spend it together. The Sea Ranch is always there choice. They all went their separate ways after our stay at Saltwater Serenity and left with a true sense of renewal.

    a guest from Santa Rosa, CA recommends this vacation rental

    We had a wonderful 3 nights at this amazing home. There were 4 couples so house was filled to capacity. The kitchen is the best one I have seen in a rental home. We love to cook so very fun environment to do so. The house has 3 1/4 baths which was great with so many of us. The only slightly uncomfortable part was the hideaway bed, but they are always hard to sleep on.

    The whale watching was incredible from the decks! Loved the property, loved the experience!

    Rented Saltwater Serenity to celebrate my wife's birthday with friends. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. The house was fully equipped for hosting a group, great kitchen for entertaining. Loved the sound system that was able to broadcast to every area of the house. Really nice touches from the owners such as a bottle of wine to welcome us. Hot tub was amazing as it overlooked the ocean, made for an incredibly relaxing stay. We can't wait to go back, highly recommend to anyone looking to get away from it all for a few days.

    Pam P from Orinda, CA recommends this vacation rental

    This is our fourth time at Saltwater Serenity, and the experience never fails to please. The accommodations are superb, with plenty of room for all. Our family looks forward to this "mini reunion" each year, and this home is perfect for our needs. The views from the decks are gorgeous, and if you do nothing else while at Sea Ranch but look out at the water, you have found the ideal place.

    Tom H from Novato, CA recommends this vacation rental

    My husband and I have been coming to Sea Ranch for over thirty years and just spent my birthday and our anniversary in this wonderful, magical home. No detail has been overlooked! The home is beautifully decorated and the layout is very well designed. The large open kitchen is perfect for the gourmet cook with all the amenities you will need. We loved huge bar height island, the spacious dining room table and the BBQ with
    rotisserie that we prepared our celebratory (whole) beef tenderloin on! Amazing four days of total fun and relaxation. We are already planning our next visit!

    We have traveled to the No. Coast of CA for many years and we usually spent our nights camping. As we are all getting older, the decision was made to stay at a home in Sea Ranch. This was not our first stay at Sea Ranch. The home we rented was spacious and had all the comforts of home plus a wonderful view of the Pacific ocean from the decks outside the home. The trip could not have been better. We had wonderful warm sunny weather right up until the time we had to leave. Future trips to Sea Ranch are in our plans.

    Through a wierd series of events we stumbled upon one of the best, if not the best, homes in Sea Ranch. I almost don't want others to know about it. It's clean, all rooms have an equally stunning view, a great kitchen and perfect house for entertaining or just hanging with some great friends and enjoying the true serenity this home offers. Although it's near hiway was never an issue or problem.

    Really stunning accommodations including location and view. Instructions for operation of household systems abound except that you either had to hunt them down (should be in the binder of information) or missing like how to operate the master bath shower water temperature controls. Very high end kitchen so if you like to cook you are in the right place. As a short person, I'll tell you the counter tops are built for giants though. Wear your elevator shoes for comfortable cooking.

    Cheryl A from El Dorado Hills, CA recommends this vacation rental

    What sets this house apart from other homes was the ability to have two families here and maintain privacy & a quiet setting for both. This is done by having a door in the downstairs hallway between the two bedrooms on one side and the master on the other. A negative side of the house was carrying groceries up the stairs. There was very little road noise when we were there in September and we could actually hear the ocean which is pretty surprising. The beds were comfortable and the house is within walking distance of recreation. We would definitely stay here again.

    Sea Ranch is our annual immediate family reunion-vacation together. We have been loyal to beach rentals since they and we found each other at the beginning of Beach and our annual vacation. Through the years as the family has grown larger houses have been needed. Saltwater Serenity with it's three bedroom three bath, separate great room and living room, tremendous view, hot tub, multiple decks facing the ocean, near kids perfect great sandy beaches,tide-pools, ....perfect for us. It is not whitewater view close, but the expansive view of the Pacific and wooded seclusion is perfect for us. We are looking forward to year 30 and 30 more at Sea Ranch; the most beautiful, romantic, best family of all ages together place on earth.

    Alicia D from Berkeley, California recommends this vacation rental

    We had a lovely time at Saltwater Serenity with 4 people using all 3 bedrooms. The home is very spacious with kitchen and living room upstairs, TV room and 3 bedrooms downstairs, plus an ample deck and nice hottub. The stove, heat lamp and warming drawer made cooking more fun. The master bedroom's bathroom is like a mini spa with huge jacuzzi bathtub and a separate steam room sauna/shower. The other bathrooms were also nice. We enjoyed the ocean views from the kitchen and living room and liked having the TV separated from the main living area. All 3 bedrooms have their own bathroom (2 ensuite and 1 right across the hall), and there is a 4th restroom upstairs off the kitchen. Although the house is on a road near Highway 1 there was no road noise inside the house--it was peaceful and an excellent location for bluff/beach walks and trips to the pool. The couches in the TV room could use an update but that was a tiny nit in an otherwise very comfortable stay. Also - a great house for people who are tall -- counters and showers were at a nice height.

    This our fourth year in a row in this house for our one week summer stay each year and 30th at Sea Ranch. The home is excellent and meets our needs with a bathroom for each of the three bedrooms. A great location with proximity to the best beach spots and town. It's getting a bit pricey and the cleaning fee is very expensive, especially with some cleaning issues, but we are very satisfied with the house and what it has to offer and will be back next year.

    Of all the houses that I have rented in Sea Ranch, this is the best. Each room has a great view of the ocean as does the hot tub. We will be renting this house again. The only thing that would have made our stay more comfortable would be to have seat pads for the outside furniture. The staff at Beach Rentals is pleasant and easy to work with.

    Enjoyed a family vacation with all our adult kids and loved our stay in this beautiful home. Wonderfully appointed and comfortable property. Quiet with beautiful views of the ocean and bluff and centrally located to all the beaches we love. We appreciated the additional TV in the master bedroom and love that the main living space is TV free. Perfect for readers. This is our 31st year at Sea Ranch and our second stay in this house. Everyone wants to return to this house next year. (Suggestion - Would love discounts for longer stays - two+ weeks).

    A great place to relax in luxury. Well designed, high quality construction, and perfect ocean views from all rooms.

    We had a fantastic time. My only reservation was the sound system. While it was neat to be able to operate it remotely from different places in the house, the amp didn't have a receptacle that could accomodate the jack from my MP3. However, this would by no means be a deal point in a revisit to Saltwater Serenity.
