Beachfront vacation rentals in Mendocino

My family enjoyed our weekend trip to the lake! We enjoyed being in the backyard and brought our paddleboard to enjoy the lake! My husband did some fishing and we stayed in most of the time. Would definitely come again!

We absolutely loved our time here. Everything was so well taken care of inside their home and you simply cannot beat the view. It's stunning. We appreciated the dog -friendliness and wonderful location as well.

Such a beautiful, secluded stay. We brought all our food and cooked in the well stocked kitchen and outdoor grill. We loved the pool table and piano upstairs. The beach is stunning. And the view — second to none! Can’t wait to return.

this is the second time I've come to the Cinderella house. I love the privacy and expanse of space. The path to the beach is my favorite thing as well as the fabulous views of both the ocean and Big River. The house is very comfortable too! Will definitely be back!

This place was absolutely a gem. Brenda made us feel welcomed immediately when we got there. She then led us to the fishing cabin which had amazing views. Overall this was such an amazingly private and gorgeous location. We will absolutely be back.

We loved it here it was such a beautiful place huge backyard and front yard my dog loved both of them we walk to the beach it was nice it was a bit of a walk we plan on making this a yearly trip!!

Watching multiple species of raptor patrol the banks of the Russian River was awe-inspiring

Fantastic! Always a joy on the bay.

This stay exceeded all expectations, we loved it! The space was immaculately clean and more spacious than the photos suggested. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked—we had everything we needed and more including Spanish Paprika! The magical jacuzzi under the stars with the sound of waves crashing was the cherry on top. There were issues initially with permits of our previous booking, Vacasa was also very proactive and helpful throughout the booking process and responsive in all communications, which made everything seamless. We’d return in a heartbeat!

If you appreciate location, this beautiful home on the north end of the Sea Ranch is for you. While the house might be a little bit older, there was plenty of room and the views can’t be beat.

My husband Josh and I had an unforgettable time at Cindi’s place in Sea Ranch. The home was even more beautiful than the photos—unique architecture, cozy design, and right on the beach. Every evening we watched the waves crash on the rocks just outside the window. It was peaceful, stunning, and truly magical. Cindi was a fantastic host, super helpful and kind. We’re already dreaming of coming back!

Casa Balena was a joy! Beautiful location (you can’t go wrong with Sea Ranch), good amenities (both at the house and the community), and so peaceful. The house was well stocked with everything you might need, including dishes/cookware in the kitchen. My family (a group of six, including a young child, two teenagers, two parents, and a grandparent) was very comfortable; lots of room, plenty of games on hand, etc. A great stay!

This is our fourth visit to Sea Ranch and this was (by far) our favorite AirBnB experience. The location is unmatched—in the mornings, you can sit in a quiet corner, enjoying coffee, watching deer graze against an expansive view of the Pacific. The house itself has everything you need—an extremely large kitchen, comfortable bed, and cozy seating throughout. The home’s proximity to Gualala is also very helpful, and you’ll have easy access to shops, groceries, and a short drive to places like the Sea Ranch Lodge or Point Arena. 10 out of 10, truly!

Nate and Nora’s beach property is so peaceful and rejuvenating. We were celebrating our first wedding anniversary and couldn’t have picked a more idyllic spot. The wildflowers were in full bloom and the seals busy with their pups. So beautiful!

Beautiful and super clean house in the magical woods. We loved the window seats everywhere and watching the deer visit every day. The beds are very comfy and towels plush. We enjoyed the sauna and hot tub under the stars. Some aspects of the house are a little more rustic than modern, but still very comfortable and cozy. The owner is super responsive and thoughtful and obviously cares a lot about her home.

Craig and Willa’s place was a wonderful spot to experience Sea Ranch for the first time. The living space was beautiful and comfortable. We loved that the home felt true to the essence of Sea Ranch and retains a lot of special architectural details. The kitchen is well set up for cooking. Walk-on beach is only a short walk away, as is the incredible bluff walk. We highly recommend a stay at Craig and Willa’s Sea Ranch home!

Such a beautiful, peaceful and fun place to stay! Completely private but walkable for espresso, ice cream, etc. The bed was very comfortable, fabulous kitchen, views to die for and squeaky clean everywhere. The hot tub was an extra bonus. We can’t wait to come back this Fall! Thank you!

Truly enjoyed our stay. Had a great time walking to the beach, seeing wildlife in the yard and neighborhood, and exploring the area.

Bay Dream was absolutely amazing! The views are incredible, and the house is very comfortable and has absolutely everything you could ever need for a wonderful stay. I appreciated all of the labels with directions for everything in the house, as well as the local food recommendations. We were also able to walk to Point Cabrillo lighthouse, which was amazing. We could not have asked for a better location for our family trip. Thanks!

Amber's place is unique and beautiful... perfect for the surroundings and very comfortable... we appreciated all the special features... stained glass, beautiful tile work and a huge shower.... easy to get to Mendocino from Amber's home and to some good restaurants... we also enjoyed cooking dinner there several evenings.. hope to return on our next visit to the area... jug handle beach and trail are terrific

Stayed with my wife. Weather was chilly with fog and marine layer in late evening/morning. The highlights: The driveway looks like it leads to a house and garage but forks around it. Keep going until it ends! • View/ambiance was outstanding! Great from the patio or couch, perfect sunset views! • Walking to the beach entails a somewhat sketchy staircase and crossing a small lake. If you’re adventurous, you’ll be fine (a Kayak is available). Otherwise, that view tho… • Bathroom was great (even for two) and towels provided. But, Bring soap! • Bed was comfortable, bedding kept us toasty despite the chilly night. Room can be made dark which was great! • Kitchen - unsure, we opted to bring/reheat food. Turned out we could have cooked though! •Plenty of wifi on site, easy access to the room (no hassle on check-in). •Morning coffee, from the patio, watching the waves, under a blanket: Bliss! A bit pricey but definitely worth the splurge! Thank you, Bruce!

My wife and I stayed here for our 5 year anniversary and I couldn't have found a better spot to get away to. It was such a cozy and peaceful location, and Aaron's home had everything we could ever need during our stay. The views were incredible, and the weather was fantastic. Aaron provided an extremely detailed guide to the area that helped us get a feel for where to go and what to do, and we hope to come back someday and stay again to experience more of the beauty of the surrounding area!

The Sea-renity House is one of the nicest homes I’ve had the chance to stay in. The views are incredible, and it’s a perfect spot for kids with plenty of space to enjoy. The check-in and check-out process was seamless, couldn’t have been easier. Overall, a fantastic experience!

This was a perfect hideaway spot for our family of 2 adults and 4 teens! Irish beach is a lot of fun and worth either the walk or drive down. Make sure you bring layers for both inside and out - it's coastal and there was a lot of fog when we were there in July. Hamid has plenty of heaters etc. in the house so you won't be cold. The kitchen has everything needed to cook and dine well. The washer and dryer were great amenities to have. Hamid is a very friendly and pleasant host. I would recommend this home.
