This oceanfront home is located in the heart of Gualala, offering guests easy access to every necessity in this small, charming town. A variety of restaurants, markets, and art galleries await less than a mile south, and Gualala Point Regional Park (which includes the Bluff Top Trail, the Salal Trail, and excellent whale watching at Gualala Point) and the Sea Ranch Golf Links are only two miles south. If you find yourself craving indoor activity, the Gualala Arts Center is only one mile away. Things to Know Cell and WiFi services are very inconsistent in this area. This home is right on an ocean bluff; please always supervise your children and your dog. This home is not recommended for children under 18 due to the proximity of the bluffs. Please note that this home is in a neighborhood that is prone to seasonal visits from ants. We always try to be as proactive as possible when dealing with this issue. If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. No more dogs are allowed. Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles. Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a reminder of maximum occupancy and quiet hours. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors! Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”).

The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out.
