A well maintained home with a beautiful view of the beach; so quiet and peaceful. We loved it and we will probably rent it again in the future.

Wonderful location and nice house

Absolutely loved our long weekend here. Has great views, great access to the bluffs trail and a really nice peaceful neighborhood. Was easy to find. WiFi worked great. The house is a really well kept mid century home, really nice vibe. Was really spacious for two people and a dog. Our dog may have loved his stay here the most because we’re in a cramped city apartment—he loved having stairs and watching the people, dogs, deer and even a coyote go by the windows.

Beautiful View

This home has beautiful views from all sides of the home. I loved all of the windows in the home. The kitchen is well stocked with various cooking utensils and plates and serving utensils. The pantry has an array of spices and condiments. There were plenty of towels, blankets, pillows and sheets. It was wonderful to have such a wide assortment of bedding.

Awesome view!

We loved the two large master suites, the comfy carpeting and furniture, the separate office and bonus tv room. The kiddos loved the area under the stairs and small doors leading to tiny closets. We had a bit of a storm, but the house was so large we never felt any cabin fever and we were always comfortable and just enjoyed the fantastic views. Part of the thrill of renting a Sea Ranch home is discovering the unusual architecture of the area, and The Nautilus did not disappoint. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Classic Sea Ranch home

This is a lovely, classic Sea Ranch home. It was a delight to stay in the house and appreciate the many charming Architectural details. The living area is on the second floor, where the view is great.

Comfortable and attractive Sea Ranch rental

My husband and I stayed at the Nautilus for three nights in late May. The house is very light, comfortable and has nice ocean views. We have rented many homes at Sea Ranch over the last 40 years and this was one of the nicer places we have stayed. Like many of the rental houses at Sea Ranch, it seemed a bit cut-up by today's preference for open floor plans, but was comfortable and well maintained. The furniture was not worn or excessively dated and the decor was attractive. The bedrooms are both downstairs with ensuite bathrooms. The larger bedroom has a tub/shower combo and the smaller bedroom has a recently renovated bathroom with an attractive walk-in shower. The house was very clean. We cooked two meals in the house and found the kitchen to be well-supplied with everything you would need. If anything, there is so much in the way of pots and pans it's a bit overwhelming. The appliances all worked well. There are many places to walk right out the door of the house. We also used the pool at Del Mar and enjoyed that immensely. We would probably look for a smaller place for the two of us in the future, but I would have no hesitation returning to Nautilus with another couple or with family.
