Bayfront Two Bedroom OVER the Water! Beach, Balcony & Pet friendly

Bodega Bay Waterfront Retreat – Tides, Views & Coastal Charm

The Space

Wake up on the edge of Bodega Bay, where the tides ebb and flow just beyond your windows. This waterfront retreat offers ever-changing views—sparkling water, coastal wildlife, and colorful sunsets—right from your private deck. With 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and cozy spaces designed for comfort, it’s the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. Spend your days kayaking the bay, strolling to local beaches, or exploring Sonoma’s world-class wine country, all within easy reach.

Living Room

Relax into coastal comfort with panoramic bay views framed by large windows. The wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and ambiance—perfect after a day of beachcombing or wine tasting. Curl up with a book, enjoy a movie night on our new 65" TV, or simply watch the tide roll in.

Kitchen & Dining

The fully equipped kitchen makes cooking a joy, from quick breakfasts before heading out to fresh seafood dinners at home. A bay-view dining area invites you to linger over meals while watching the changing light on the water.

Bedrooms

Primary Suite (King Bed): Wake up to sweeping water views and step out to the deck to catch the first light dancing on the tides.

Second Bedroom (Queen Bed): Bright and comfortable, with fresh linens and easy access to the second full bathroom.

Both bedrooms are designed for restful sleep, so you can recharge for your next coastal adventure.

Outdoor Space

Step outside onto your private deck perched above the bay. Enjoy your morning coffee with seabirds for company, fire up the charcoal BBQ for dinner al fresco, or unwind under a star-filled sky as the tide flows in and out.

A wonderful location with pretty much all one needed to have a comfortable getaway in a charming village. Hosts were excellent communicators and had the lodging well equipped. The additional heaters were a must - even in July. Be extra careful about the driveway. The hosts' instructions should be carefully followed. Our small pet loved the place. The only drawback is if you have any limitations on mobility. There are both up and down steps between the bed and the bathroom and the steep driveway limited some of us from walking around the lovely neighborhood. The very respectful neighbors upstairs could be heard walking around (we go to bed very early) but it was totally manageable. We definitely recommend the unit.

Pet friendly retreat in Bodega Bay!

If you like to relax with your pup, this is the place for you! The sweet looks over the bay and is a great place to enjoy watching the boats. Leave the harbor! It’s a really cool historic building and we really enjoyed having access down to the water!
