Wonderful Views of Dillon Beach and Bodega Bay
The Sea Turtle is a very clean well built single level home from 5StarVR with a large open living space and great views of the beach, ocean and Bodega Bay. The home was renovated in 2021 to add another bathroom for a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths with 2 of the bedrooms with full baths en-suite. There are new hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout including kitchen and bathroom cabinets. The master bathroom is spa like with a double steam shower and double size whirlpool tub. A lot of new furniture is also in place so you won't find any old hand me downs from home. There are also 2 washers and 2 dryers to get your laundry done faster.
The views are wonderful, and this property offers an up close experience with wildlife a few feet from the deck as the space between houses is a favorite path for deer, wild turkey and quail.
Please see our 5StarVR site for information about our personal chefs, caterers, massages, Yoga instructors & personal trainers as well as great information about local restaurants & wineries and fun things to do in the area. All of our vacation rentals are completely stocked with essential cookware, dinnerware and consumable supplies like toilet paper; paper towels; shampoo & conditioner; bath, dish hand and laundry soaps; and various trash bags. Luxurious linens are also provided. The hot tub is heated at no additional charge all year. Bring your electric car! We added a 240 volt outlet so now you can get a full charge for your electric car. All houses are non-smoking indoors.

Girl’s Trip
We had 8 ladies celebrating a 50th birthday and we were looking for a house that was big enough for us, a table that sat all of us and a living room that was comfortable for game nights and watching romantic comedies and this house was absolutely perfect! The hot tub, the space and all of the necessities were here so we never had to leave! We cooked all meals and all kitchen items were available. I’d absolutely stay here again! The process from booking to check out was so easy.

Ideal for our Group
This property was perfect for our group of three couples and one single. The place was on a hill overlooking the beach with great views. The kitchen was well equipped which was great for us since we cooked all our breakfasts and dinners at the house. We walked on Dillon Beach, drove over to Bodega Bay which has beautiful hiking paths and dramatic scenery, and ate lunch at great fish restaurants in the area. We were there in January—weather sunny and in the mid to upper 60’s, perfect for long walks. In addition, management was very responsive to any questions.

Very Nice Pet Friendly Home
We enjoyed our stay at this home very much. We have stayed at many pet friendly vacation homes and this was one of the nicest.
There were a couple of things that happened that were out of the host's control. The temperatures were unusually high and the home did get very hot and humid. We also could not open the big sliders in the main living area to help cool down the house because there were wasps that kept coming into the house. We let the host know about the wasp situation and they are going to take care of it.
Overall our stay at this home was very pleasant!

Wonderful beach stay!
The interior of the property is wonderfully fresh and comfortable and in such better condition than so many I've stayed in in the past. A wonderfully well appointed kitchen and dining area made it just perfect for our large family. The beds and linens were deluxe and all the towels we needed. The large master bedroom and bath were exceptional with a double shower and large whirlpool bath! We want to reserve again for next year!

Birthday getaway
Dillon Beach is the best getaway from the east bay, super close and it’s all about chill time! We brought groceries and cooked all meals; which was easy to do with the fully stocked chefs kitchen. Eating at the huge table watching the sunset was AMAZIING!
The beds are comfy, great linens and towels. We will be back!!

Beautiful house, lovely stay!
House is big and well stocked. It has everything you might need in the kitchen, which was great as we cooked a lot. Amazing views, nice hot tub, had a great time! I love that all 4 rooms had king size beds, and the fact that there were so many bathrooms was so nice for our group of 6. Would definitely stay here again!

We were 8 friends who get away annually, often to the CA coast. This house has 4 king size beds plus ample bathroom facilities and a perfect great-room arrangement. The kitchen was well-stocked and we did all our own cooking during our stay and had everything we needed. Would definitely come back!
