The Sea Ranch

The Promenade essay

What it feels like to stay here

Near Gualala on California's Sonoma coast, The Sea Ranch was created with a deep respect for the land and its stewardship, and designed to respond to and live in harmony with the natural elements. To give tangible, visible form to that principle of harmony between inhabitants and nature, lead architect Al Boeke assembled a group of architects and design professionals. Landscape architect Lawrence Halprin studied the topography, weather, and vegetation that inspired the original master plan. The Sea Ranch Lodge calls itself the heart of the community, with the homes described as its soul. The Sea Ranch Living collection lets guests experience several prominent Sea Ranch designer homes, all within 10 minutes of The Lodge, coupled with concierge advice and planning by local experts to curate a visit. The operator states that guests' needs will be met with services beyond what a usual vacation home can offer. Houses span one-bedroom retreats such as Cedar + Skye and Redwood Rise, each sleeping two, up to the four-bedroom Galleons Point, which sleeps eight. Mid-size choices include Tarp House and Casa de Luz, three-bedroom homes sleeping six. The Lodge's own pages list The Dining Room, The Bar + Lounge, The Café, The Farm, Kids Club, The General Store, and golf. Reservations for a Sea Ranch Living home go through the Sea Ranch Living Concierge, reachable by email or at 707-513-9904 between 8AM and 8PM. The Lodge itself is located at 60 Sea Walk Drive, The Sea Ranch, CA 95497.
