3921 Eyas - Openings in July, Car Week and August
Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Eyas"! This private guest house on a secluded Big Sur property sleeps two guests.
Big Sur Coastline, just 13 miles south of Carmel!
Be among the first to enjoy this one-of-a-kind Big Sur guest house sanctuary named after a fledgling hawk.
Remote location, perfect for a retreat where you really want to get away from it all and commune with nature. Up a steep, bluff-side road to a private drive where neighboring homes are nowhere to be seen. (Please be sure to read the info below about the main house and guest house on the property.)
Unobstructed ocean views from atop an ocean side ridge will marvel and delight when you stay at Eyas. This perfect location gives you the best of both worlds: being near all the attractions of the Big Sur coastline while giving you easy access to Carmel and all of its conveniences.
Nature lovers will be entranced by the ocean view and the flora and fauna on full display at this stunning property. Just a short distance away are the bluff-side trails of Garrapata State Park, and a bit farther are numerous hiking options in Andrew Molera and Pfeiffer Big Sur State Parks, Point Lobos State Reserve and more. Day trips into downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea and the Monterey Peninsula are easy so bring the golf clubs and pack your favorite walking shoes.
The elevated 530 sf studio guest house is all one level once inside and is equipped with a kitchenette with under-counter side-by-side fridge/freezer and a stove/oven unit (no dishwasher). The king-sized bed is adorned with sumptuous linens in a palette of tranquil earth tones, offering an exquisite blend of comfort and elegance. Indulge in the luxury of a meticulously designed custom tiled shower, offering a relaxing experience enhanced by stunning views of the coastal mountains. This serene oasis combines elegance and nature, creating a spa-like retreat that elevates your daily routine to new heights. The ocean view balcony and large elevated deck take full advantage of absolutely breathtaking ocean views. Get ready to view some of the most memorable sunsets of your life.
This guest house is perfect for a solitary getaway or for a couple's retreat. Get away from it all and enjoy the best of Big Sur from this exclusive property.
A large wall-mounted Wifi-enabled Smart TV has Apple TV and guests should bring their own logins to view their personal streaming subscriptions.
A washer-dryer combination is tucked into a closet inside the studio.
Note: The separate entrance to the main house (Red Tail Hawk) is located steps away from the Guest House and the two units are attached. Both the main house and the guest house may be rented together (see our listing #3920) or separately. It is rare, but possible, that the main house may be occupied by another guest or the Homeowner during your stay. If you want to book Eyas, please confirm with us if the Guest House Unit is available on its own.
Sorry, Eyas is not a pet friendly property.
Parking is not available in the garage, but guests may use the Tesla EV (electric vehicle) charger and there is plenty of parking in the driveway. Guests should bring their power cord and adaptor.
Be aware that this remote location is up a steep, narrow, one-lane road that is paved, has hairpin turns and is unlit at night. Even confident drivers must exercise a great deal of caution, especially in inclement weather or at night. The driveway itself is unpaved. Detailed driving instructions are provided and must be followed by guests staying at this home.

Great VRBO location, very clean and secluded. The drive isn't for the weak hearted, but they are up front with it and the views are worth it.

Stunning
The views are out of this world, and you’re high up but you can hear the waves very clearly. We were a little nervous about arriving in the dark but so long as you keep your eyes on the road, the drive up is definitely manageable. Studio was very well maintained too.

Stunning Views & Location but Need a Confident Hill/Incline Driver
My husband and I were blown away by the stunning views from this mountain-top location and the home was very clean. FYI - the “guest house” is located on top of the main house. However, we ended up not staying overnight due to the drive to the house - although my husband is an extremely confident driver, this house is about a 10-15 drive up an extremely steep, unlit hill on a one-lane road. This road has no shoulder, no guardrails, and has multiple hairpin/switchback turns. We would not have been able to do the drive in any inclement weather/fog/at night in the dark, which would have significantly limited us in visiting the nearby towns. For these reasons, we opted out of staying here & booked another location to stay during our time in Carmel/Big Sur. For those who are comfortable driving these types of roads & are confident on hilly/one-lane roads, it’s an absolutely stunning location with beautiful views.
