Sea Ranch is a beautiful area, all eight miles of it. This home is in a perfect location, right on the edge of a bluff. However, the house has seen better days.
We paid for a ten day stay but left three days early due to the conditions in the house.
In the immediate days leading up to our arrival I received an email from Vacasa saying they were getting the house ready for our stay, cleaning windows and making sure everything was just right.
When we arrived, the windows were not cleaned, in fact, several of the windows and sliding doors have failed and you couldn’t see out of them very well. Then half way into our stay, the automatic garage door came off its track rendering the door halfway open and unable to go up or down. That same day, the master bath shower door came off its track and couldn’t be opened or closed! The local Vacasa handyman was able to fix the shower door but nothing could be done to the garage door until the homeowner arrived after our departure.
There is only one thermostat in the house so the downstairs stays very cold unless you turn up the thermostat but that makes it unbearably warm upstairs. The hardwood floors are very worn especially in the dining room due to the cafe chairs around the table being moved in and out. Scuffs and gashes on the walls are numerous.
On the positive side, the kitchen is extremely well equipped! Nice linens too! House needs some TLC.
