Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Gualala, Mendocino County

We had such a wonderful and relaxing time at Jason’s house. The views were amazing and the location is the best we’ve stayed in at Sea Ranch. The path to the bluff trail was right next to the house and just a short walk you get to amazing tide pools (my daughter and I woke up early to make it at low tide!) and really the best pacific coast views. Jason’s house was immaculate and we really appreciated how complete the kitchen was!! And the blue bottle and intelligentsia coffee beans were a great treat. The hot tub was also great to use after swimming in the rec center. Thank you Jason!!

Denise is a fantastic host. Not only is the place gorgeous and accessible, but the amenities are top notch. She's very responsive and accommodating to any of our requests. We celebrated our one year anniversary here after having a great time last year and this could very well be an annual thing, it's very special to us. Hands down, must stay. Thanks for everything Denise!

We were a party of 7: 5 adults, 2 children, 3 generations. Everyone enjoyed the place. It was a short walk to the Anchor Bay Campground beach as well as a short drive to other beaches. The house was comfortable and furnished well. We enjoyed the selection of games and the hot tub. We all agreed that we would rebook in the future. Kitchen was well furnished. There were blankets in case someone was chilly. Beach towels were furnished. Hot Tub worked for 4 adults. Any questions we had were quickly answered, including where the pillows and comforters were from...we all wanted to know.

The house is on a cliff overlooking the rocky California coast, with easy access from the road and only about 20 minutes of scenic highway south of Mendocino. The house is very comfortable with many windows with views of the ocean. There are also many extra touches including binoculars, strategically placed rugs, robes, an electric tea kettle (thanks), cushions for all the upright chairs, and very comfortable sofas - very thoughtful! Wonderful deck with incredible ocean views. House very clean, great WiFi, etc. Clear instructions and good communications from owner. Especially appreciated the excellent suggestions for state parks, beaches, and other places to visit, as well as groceries and restaurants. A welcome respite - very highly recommended!

We enjoyed our time at The Bluffs last week. It's a wonderful, cozy and comfortable place to spend time unwinding. Great ocean views. We liked the convenience of taking the walking trail in front of the house which leads out to the bluff trail. The kitchen has everything you might need for cooking meals: pots, pans, utensils, coffee machine, microwave, toaster, etc. Quiet and peaceful area with deer and other wildlife. We recommend picking up a map of Sea Ranch area at the association office if you want to explore the beaches and trails more. John was very prompt with any questions we had about the house. We look forward to returning again. - Liz

Just like the photos - really peaceful and quiet area and beautiful surroundings. Comfy bed and we had all we needed for our stay. Coffee and tea a really nice touch for the mornings and evenings.

This coastal home was truly magical—perched right by the ocean with stunning views of the sunset and night sky. The house itself is beautifully designed, with so much love and care evident in every detail. It felt warm, peaceful, and thoughtfully put together. Ted was a fantastic host—very responsive and proactive, even informing us about a PG&E power outage that we didn’t even feel thanks to the battery backup. I would absolutely recommend this home to anyone looking for a serene and unforgettable stay.

We spent a long weekend at Anastassia’s Gray Fox Dacha and it was exceptional. Definitely one of the best Air BnB’s we’ve stayed in. Everything was impeccable with thoughtful touches, and the views from the living room were gorgeous. Would absolutely stay at one of her properties in the future.

What a fantastic stay! We’ve been visiting Mendocino for years and can’t believe it took us so long to find Mary’s place. Superb location…super spacious and well equipped. Views couldn’t be any better and so convenient to the local shops and restaurants. Hope to stay there again.

Wonderful stay! Probably the best AirBnB experience I’ve ever had! I loved all of the instructions. The place was homey and very clean! There were a lot of little treats and snacks that made us feel very welcome. Thank you for your hospitality!

Lynn’s property & place is beyond beautiful & such a peaceful setting. A perfect place for a couple to relax & reconnect. Lynn was very welcoming….we even had a bottle of local wine waiting for us on arrival. Such a nice touch! The view & grounds are lovely. We enjoyed most going out exploring & returning here for a quiet evening looking out the windows to this quiet & breathtaking pastoral setting.

The spotless and comfortable apartment and large deck were even better than the pictures in Deborah's listing. The mini split A/Cs were so welcome in summer in Ukiah. We've stayed in lots of AirBnBs, and Deborah's very thoughtful amenities in the kitchen and bathroom were among the best we've experienced. The peaceful and serene apartment and grounds provided exactly what these weary travelers needed after a long drive.

We loved our two nights at Amy’s place with our two pups! I wish we would have planned to stay longer, there was a lot more to explore in the area! It was SO clean. We usually feel like we need to re-clean just to feel ok in Airbnb’s but Amy’s place felt like we were staying at a friend’s place that we trusted. The homemade delivered muffins were a treat and she gave us some awesome local recommendations. The bed was comfortable and it was super quiet!

What a lovely place! Super cozy and beautifully decorated. The skylights bring in a lot of natural light and the patio is so sweet. I was greeted by two little birds singing their songs each day. Highly recommend! :)

The Treehouse was a beautiful spot in a beautiful location. It’s close to lovely shops, the views from the room are gorgeous, and the host is very welcoming and thoughtful. I highly recommend it!

This place was beautiful, quaint, and the perfect getaway for 2! I went with a friend and we absolutely loved it while visiting both Napa and Sonoma. The surroundings are gorgeous and the apartment itself was so comfy and cozy. Eileen was also an amazing host! She always responded quickly and had recs on the ready!

Loved having a kitchen and BBQ so we could cook some meals. Convenient location to get to markets, bakeries, and get to scenic locations. Visits to local restaurants, breweries and wineries made it an enjoyable place to stay.

Perfect location in the quaint town of Windsor! Short drive to the Windsor Green, Healdsburg Square, and wineries. The space is clean and well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Quiet, good location and exactly what we needed.

The room and all accommodations were exactly as expected! If you're heading to Clear Lake, this is a great place to stay and LaTonya was a wonderful host.

Terrific place. Attractive, super clean and comfortable and looked like the photos. It had a very pretty style and was well-maintained. Great location for walking downtown.

We stayed as part of a large family reunion, with family members in various units in this complex. This worked out really well, and management was kind enough to allow us to have a BBQ on the patio near the main entrance building. Very enjoyable stay overall

A wonderful place for a longer stay. I only was in town for a short visit, but definitely would recommend to someone who wants a mini-apartment while they explore Sonoma wine country. The facility provides lots of activities for kids and it’s very family friendly.

great quiet spot. close to town where you could easily walk to many places. the place was very cozy and the porch was great in the evening for a last glass of wine. the beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. they were responsive and gave lots of options for the area. the price is great for this area of California. would absolutely stay again.
