Welcome to this lovely ocean-side getaway!
This home provides a cozy respite and a fun spot for a family vacation or a romantic weekend. 

The location of this home west of Highway One provides invigorating, panoramic ocean views.
Coral Cove is light, contemporary and provides a modern home in a dramatic setting.
Upstairs offers the kitchen, dining area, living room, deck with new Softub and BBQ, and a half-bath. 
New spa and seating needed an updated photo, but weather wasn’t cooperating, so we’re offering here an “artist’s rendering” of a really nice view!

The living room has a couch and recliner and also a TV with DVD and VCR, a woodstove, telescope…and what about those fabulous ocean views? 

Kick back with a great movie, bring a board game and play with the kids…or just gaze at the timeless Pacific. 

Oh! And the open design of the upstairs makes for G-R-R-REAT views!
Downstairs, the main bedroom has a queen bed, cable TV with DVD/VCR and a sitting area. The smaller second bedroom also has a queen bed. Both rooms offer ocean views. There is a single full bathroom on this level. 

Come and discover the beauty of Coral Cove!

We’d like to start the house description with a few excerpts from the guest book:

“What a romantic and peaceful setting to the beginning of our life together. Soaking in the Jacuzzi, playing on the beach, lounging on the deck, and cooking dinners together, this has been our best vacation ever!”

“Thank you for sharing your lovely home – I’ve stayed at many places along the coast, but this has got to be the best.”

“From the beautiful Napa Valley to the beautiful Blue Dolphin Cove. What a way to celebrate my 40th birthday. It was breathtaking. We will be back.”

“G. and I have rented many, many, many rentals alomg our beautiful coast in the last 8 years. We both agree this is by far the most romantic one yet.”

“On our first night here, my boyfriend (now fiance) proposed to me on the deck while we watched the sunset.”

“One of our favorite things was being able to see the whales. We saw dozens while we were here.”

Now, for a few details about Blue Dolphin! Spectacular views sweep south and west across Island Cove. The many rocky mini-islands add to the drama. Some days will seem nearly tropical. Others will thrill you with Nature’s power and changing personality. 

Intimate dining with an infinite view. 

Color…warmth…something to please the eye with every glance. While Blue Dolphin’s bluff-top location certainly contributes to the beautiful setting, the stylish furnishings and playful accents hold their own very nicely. 

Two luxurious bedrooms each with a queen bed and ocean view. 

The bathroom with deep tub is centrally located between the two bedrooms. The view is across the top of the hot tub, and beyond into the cove. There is an additional half-bath just off the living room. The loft has gorgeous views, and also offers the satellite TV with VCR and DVD.
