This house was absolutely spectacular! It was clean, beautiful, and very inviting. It was a bit hard to find as our GPS sent us on a little adventure, but once we knew where it was, there wasn't a problem. I would recommend this house to anyone and we will likely stay here in the future, if it is available.

Location location location… Rio Luna does not disappoint. The views were amazing and time seemed to stand still as you stare into the Navarro River and try to figure out where all the water goes when it stops before the beach.The house was to die for and we enjoyed the deck and hot tub a lot.Only complaint that some of our friends had was that the beds were too soft.

We all absolutely loved this house and the whimsical garden. It was absolutely one of the best houses we’ve stayed at on the coastline. Amazing view, really comfortable beds and furnishings. We would book again for sure! There were two things that made us give it a four star rating. First, the hot tub was only heated to 83, which was not warm enough for us to get in, and there is no way of changing the temperature. Also, the sound system was dope, but we could not find the Bluetooth location specified in the rather complicated instructions.

Dog Adventure To Mendocino

The house and location were magical. There were two couples with a Australian Labradoodle…Henry and his friend Ruby. Ruby was recently diagnosed with cancer and this was her dream trip with her Humans and Henry. She was a young dog once again and sat for hours just looking at the ocean. The house felt like home to all of us. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us and welcoming our beloved dogs

Wonderful Birthday Weekend!

We had a wonderful time. The house is spacious and very comfortable, can easily gather your group together or retreat to one of the two large bedrooms on the ground floor. The 3rd bedroom, which you are charged extra for, is small but comfortable. The views from the many windows are incredible. The house overlooks the beach and the river so most windows look out to something gorgeous.

Majestic

On occasion our family will look for a unique getaway location where time moves slowly and the days are quiet and tranquil, this is that kind of place. First, the home is secluded from outside influences of any kind except the ocean, wind, and the countless majestic views. This location checked all the boxes; clean, quiet, inviting, amenities, comfort as well as conveniently accessible to the highway. Access to gain entry was as advertised, instructions regarding usage of amenities and lighting were thorough and concise. This stay exceeded my expectations based on all the aforementioned reasons. Lastly, photos only tell a part of the story. Without the experience of being there, the visual of the sunset or sight and sound of the ocean waves against the rock formations, or the crisp ocean air as the sun fades into the horizon, is truly incomplete. If all the items valued in your getaway match this description, you have found your ideal location.

Wonderful location and property

We were very happy with our stay and had no needs arise while we were there. The home was clean and the kitchen well equipped and we cooked in most of the evenings that setup was that great. We had our dogs and it was nice to arrive to some bowls, beds, treats, and towels for them. There are two master bedrooms with one not being pictured on the site so it was a nice surprise when we got there as both rooms were large and had great space since we were two couples traveling. One small glitch was that we were not informed that a gardener would be on site and we were in the hot tub at the time. We had our dogs with us, tied up, so there was no issue but it scared him when they barked. We would have appreciated being informed as he was there to blow off and clean the property so we vacated the tub.

Gorgeous Home, warm and peaceful!

Beautiful home, spotlessly clean. The master is HUGE! Views are just awesome! The kitchen is truly a chef's kitchen...very well appointed. Our only "issue" was that the knives in the block were dull and there was no sharpener. Lol...that was the worst part. The bathrooms are spectacular! We will be back!

A truly magnificent home overlooking the Navarro River as it empties into the Pacific Ocean. I have nothing to criticize everything was great. The kitchen had all amenities you could want.
