Wake to ocean views from this hillside retreat overlooking Bodega Bay's 11th fairway. Soak up panoramic water views from the front balcony or unwind on the back deck facing the golf course. Two king suites and a game room with pool table make this ideal for two couples. Just 0.3 miles from Pinnacle Gulch Trail and 1.2 miles from The Dog House restaurant. The rugged Sonoma Coast beckons — where gray whales cruise past rocky headlands and fresh crab sandwiches taste better with salt air.
The space
At Casa Playa, mornings begin on the deck as the dew burns off the fairways, afternoons walking the bluff trails or playing the Robert Trent Jones Jr. Course, and evenings watching the sun melt into the Pacific.
Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams open the main level; a sectional and purple accent chairs face the gas fireplace as sliding glass doors frame the ocean-view deck. Teal lower cabinets pair with quartz counters in the kitchen, and the island doubles as casual seating. Downstairs the rec room takes over — a full-size pool table and a 75-inch satellite TV stand ready when the fog rolls over the 11th fairway.
OUTDOOR LIVING
Two deck areas maximize your time outside. The front balcony with wood railings offers ocean views and seating for watching the fog roll in. The back deck features composite decking, an outdoor sectional with navy cushions, and a gas grill — all facing the 11th fairway. An outdoor gas fire pit rounds out the setup, ready for the cool hour after the sun goes down.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Two king suites anchor this home. The first welcomes you with navy accents, a macramé wall hanging, and sliding glass doors to outdoor space. The second features a striped coverlet, wood dresser, and textured accent wall. Sleeps 4.

Guest access
Catch the afternoon light pouring through the skylights and vaulted ceilings, then move out to the deck or the dedicated game room with the full pool table. The whole home is yours, with a gas fireplace and an indoor-outdoor flow built for slow days. There's an outdoor gas fire pit, too, for keeping the evening going once the fog rolls in. Punch in the keypad code on arrival, and pull up to three cars into the driveway.

Casa Playa was such a wonderful place to stay with a beautiful view, great patio outdoors to hangout. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed to cook. The entertainment zone downstairs was an our hangout spot and definitely need to come back and stay again. Biggest plus is having an EV charger and made is so convenient for charging and getting back home. Stay here, you will not regret it!

Good location and nice home. Kids loved the pool table. When the oven didn't work, management company was quick to respond, same when the door lock wouldn't open. A little disappointed that amenities like sugar, salt or oil weren't stocked as most rentals have the basics on hand. Good value overall.
