John T.via Airbnb

Very nice clean and comfortable house. The view is absolutely stunning. Sitting and watching the waves breaking on the rocks and seeing whales off shore is something I will never forget.
It is in a very nice walkable neighborhood with a very good Mexican restaurant a couple blocks away and about a half mile away is all of other Gualala restaurants.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thanks, John — I’m so glad our house felt clean and comfortable and that you got to enjoy the view and whale watching. Hope to welcome you back to Gualala again soon.

Shaurya C.via Airbnb

Pros:
- very clean spacious house with excellent facilities
- nice and airy with lots of natural light
- location is excellent with very little light pollution and sound pollution which we liked
- love the many spaces to gather as a group and have conversations in the house and outside
- glad to have the use of many blankets and throws for the cold Sonoma nights
- ⁠heated hot tub was very nice and relaxing

Cons:
- ⁠we disliked that the hot tub needs an app because I don’t want to give out an email to a random third party; a physical control in the house will certainly be easier for the customer
- lots of leaves and insects in the pool and no clear way to get rid of them

Response from Vinifera Homes

I’m glad you enjoyed your time at our house and found it comfortable and relaxing. I appreciate the thoughtful suggestions and we’ll use your feedback to improve the guest experience and upkeep. Hope to welcome you back to Casa Pavone someday.

Florence T.via Airbnb

I’ve stayed at dozens of Airbnb‘s and this home has got to be one of the best so far. It feels like a home, was fully stocked, was extremely well maintained and spacious, and not to mention the pictures do not do this place justice.

Harmon was extremely responsive and friendly and you can just tell he really loves hosting. We can’t wait to come back one day. This is such a gorgeous property.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Florence — I’m really glad our house felt like a home and that you enjoyed your stay. I appreciate the kind words and will keep working to make the place even better. Hope to host you again in Guerneville soon. — Harman

Vamsi C.via Airbnb

Amazing place, we loved it

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thanks so much, Vamsi — I’m really glad you loved our house. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime.

Katie K.via Airbnb

I just returned from a stay at Harman’s house with five of my girlfriends (all in our forties). We had an absolute perfect stay and loved Harman’s location as it provided easy access to Healdsburg, Sonoma and Napa. Plenty of space to kick back and chill and a beautiful property to be surrounded by. He was very responsive and I will absolutely stay there again!

Response from Vinifera Homes

So glad you enjoyed our house and the location — thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you noting my responsiveness and would love to welcome you back anytime.

Binjal C.via Airbnb

Had a great time and absolutely loved the ocean views!

Response from Vinifera Homes

So glad you enjoyed the ocean views, Binjal — it was a pleasure hosting you. We’d love to welcome you back at Seagate anytime! 🌊

Nawarid Nur S.via Airbnb

Amazing view! We watched whales and harbor seals from the balcony, which made our stay truly special. It was such a peaceful and relaxing experience. The host was very responsive and helpful. I would definitely book again in the future!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Nawarid, thank you for the kind words — I’m glad the view and the wildlife made your stay at our house so peaceful. I appreciate you noting the responsiveness; I’d love to host you again whenever you’re back in Gualala.

Dionne H.via Airbnb

This place was beautiful and peaceful. The kitchen is extremely well-outfitted, with almost any utensil and gadget you would need. It felt very cozy while also being very clean. The host was always responsive if we had a question and we would definitely return! The walk down to the amazing private beach area is very steep- just a note for those of you who may be envisioning a relaxing evening stroll down there and back. If you cannot make that hike, however, the view from the upper deck and lower deck areas are still incredible. I went with my sisters for a 50th birthday celebration and we all thought we would bring our families back sometime :)

Response from Vinifera Homes

So glad you enjoyed our house and found the kitchen well-equipped and cozy. I appreciate the note about beach access and we’ll work on improvements; we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.

Allison J.via Airbnb

What a wonderful location!! beautiful views from every room with plenty of fresh ocean air. Would be good for a small group but was also perfect for two people and two dogs. We definitely look forward to returning to this property.

Response from Vinifera Homes

So happy to hear you enjoyed our house and the coastal views. It’s wonderful that the space worked well for you. We look forward to welcoming you back for another coastal getaway!

Robert R.via Airbnb

Harman is indeed a Super host. The location feels remote but is just minutes from Gualala. The view is spectacular. We enjoyed stunning sunsets and watched four feeding whales on one of our five day visit. The kitchen, dinning area and living room is an open area leading to the freedom of conversations throughout the main living area with the bedrooms tucked away. The home does show its age a bit but is clean and comfortable. We would definitely seek out this residence as a home away from home next time we are in the area.

Response from Vinifera Homes

I appreciate you taking the time to share your stay, Robert — it was a pleasure hosting you. I’m glad you enjoyed the view, sunsets, and easy flow of our house; we’ll continue making updates to improve the experience. Hope to welcome you back next time you’re in the area.

Hardik S.via Airbnb

Harman was a great host and super responsive! The house was spotless, and the views from the kitchen and living area were absolutely amazing. Would definitely love to stay here again!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Hardik — thank you for the kind review. I’m glad you enjoyed the house and the views. We’d be happy to host you again whenever you’re back in Sebastopol! 😊

Terry C.via Airbnb

Beautiful setting, quiet and peaceful. Beautiful views. Everything was spotless and in good condition. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Wonderful detailed information, best stocked kitchen of anyplace I’ve rented. We stayed in, cooked and enjoyed the peace and quiet. It is a bit isolated from activities and shopping but we were not there for that so it suited us perfectly. Harman was extremely responsive.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you for highlighting the peaceful setting, spotless condition, and well-stocked kitchen at our house—we’re so glad it was a perfect fit for your stay. I appreciate your feedback about the location and will continue enhancing our local recommendations to help future guests make the most of the area.

Rahul B.via Airbnb

Not worth it. The place was dirty - lots of cobwebs, frogs in the hot tub, broken bbq grill, tons of stains on sofa, very smelly living room, broken downstairs showers etc. We immediately pointed these to the host, but he couldn’t fix this while we were there. FWIW, he did refund 25% of trip fee back - but the trip was already spoiled by then! Will NOT recommend.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Rahul, for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize that the condition of the home fell short of expectations and that we were unable to resolve all of the concerns during your stay. We appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention and are glad we were able to provide a 25% refund, though we understand this could not make up for the experience. Since your stay, we’ve been working on a comprehensive overhaul of the property, addressing the maintenance, cleanliness, and overall condition to ensure it is better prepared and more comfortable for future guests. We truly regret that your stay was affected and appreciate your feedback as we continue making improvements.

Maria Rosaria Di C.via Airbnb

Staying at this place was magical. I’ve been in guerneville several times, this house was just perfect for the two of us. The quietness was what we were looking for. I am planning to go back during winter to enjoy the cold weather.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you so much for the kind words—I'm glad our house felt like the peaceful escape you were looking for. We’d love to welcome you back in winter to enjoy the cozy, chilly season and relax in the hot tub.

Huntervia Airbnb

Booked this spot for a solo getaway to get out of San Francisco for the weekend and it was absolutely perfect!

The house is gorgeous, neighborhood is quiet and the host Harman was very responsive and helpful!

100% will be booking again :)

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Hunter — I’m so glad our house was the perfect spot for your solo getaway and that you found the neighborhood peaceful. I’d love to host you again next time you’re escaping the city.

John C.via Airbnb

The house was comfortable and roomy for a larger group. Great location, clean and well maintained. The host was very responsive. All in all a great stay, would visit again.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you for your kind words, John! I’m glad our house provided the comfort and space you needed, and I appreciate you noting how responsive I was. Would love to welcome you back anytime!

We had a fantastic time! Perfect getaway for our family. We all enjoyed the pool and all the amenities. We would absolutely book again.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you for the kind words, Wesley! I’m so happy you and your family had a fantastic time enjoying our house and the pool. We’d love to welcome you back anytime.

Angelo M.via Airbnb

The pictures don’t really do the place justice. It’s quite large and very comfortable. The location is perfect, away from the little town. Very peaceful. We had a great time, I would book without hesitation.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Angelo, thank you for the kind words — I’m glad our house provided a comfortable, peaceful stay for you. I appreciate your note about the listing and we’ll work on improvements; you’re welcome back anytime.

Juan T.via Airbnb

We had an amazing stay in Bodega Bay! The house was beautiful, very clean, and we didn’t have any issues during our stay. The ocean view was absolutely amazing and made the trip even better. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed our time here. I would definitely recommend this place and would love to stay again!

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Juan, for your kind words and recommendation! It’s wonderful to hear you loved our house, the clean space, and that ocean view—looking forward to welcoming you back soon.

Isabel V.via Airbnb

We held our wedding here, and it was a beautiful space with plenty of facilities to host our large event. The properties were spacious and the grounds were absolutely beautiful. Heila and the team at Stone Ranch were very responsive, flexible, and helpful as we planned and held our wedding here. We would absolutely come back and recommend this Airbnb to others. We will never forget our weekend at this unique and breathtaking property.

Response from Vinifera Homes

Thank you, Isabel — it was an honor to host your wedding at our house. I’m glad the space and our team were helpful during your weekend, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime.
