Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at La Bella Vista before and this time we brought our friends. We hope to make it an annual trip. This home is well appointed, located within walking distance to a great coastal hike and to the beach, and has an awesome kitchen. We never eat out when staying here! The only bummer this time was that the spa jets didn't work and it was a weekend and so it couldn't get fixed during our stay. But we love staying with Mendocino Preferred and at this location. It's perfect for our dog and we love garden, which was in full bloom!

We really enjoyed this unique house and the great view of Van Damme beach and fantastic garden. Close to town and many places to visit

Guests stayed on convertible couch, back room was too close to the highway and no view. They were comfortable on the couch. I used a sleeping bag on the upstairs bed but it really wasn’t necessary because the house was immaculate. I was glad I bought my own soft pillow.

It was a perfect home in a perfect location. We cannot wait to come back

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My three adult children all celebrate birthdays in May and this was a big one for my oldest so we decided to visit our favorite place. During their childhoods, we owned a home on the coast and have many memories of our time there together. Staying at La Bella Vista was a perfect way for us to feel connected and relive special memories in a comfortable setting with lovely views and easy access to the beaches, restaurants and activities on our to-do list. The hot tub was a welcome addition on a chilly day and the gas fireplace provided a lovely ambiance on a chilly evening. Before we built our home in the early 2000s, we rented through Mendocino Preferred on numerous occasions and I was quite pleased to see the quality and service is still excellent - so much better than Airbnb or VRBO due to the consistency of service, cleanliness and quality!

The attention to design detail inside and out is amazing, right down to the fixtures. This is owner-pride at its best. The two large living spaces are very welcoming and the view through the large windows is super. The botanical garden outside is really well-manicured and has a nice zen feeling to it. Our experience with Mendocino Preferred was also outstanding, what a lovely bunch of professionals. We're very picky- we loved it so much, we extended our stay.

My partner, mother and I had the most phenomenal stay at this gem of a house!! The location is amazing - just a 5 minute drive from downtown Mendocino and steps from the beach! The house is so cozy and spacious. We loved sitting on the deck and in the living room drinking coffee, both areas providing an idyllic view of the ocean. What a fantastic house for a group vacation! We hope to be back!!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great rental with an amazing view. This is our third time to stay here so obviously we like the place. The management company is very reliable and commuciates well with the renters. We had a power outage due to the heavy rains and downed trees during this historic weather event in CA. When the power came back we had no water. They sent someone immediately and our water was restored. We highly recommend this property and the management company.

It has so much common space that it seemed really big for our family of 4. It was easy to warm with the gas fireplace and wall heater, and everything worked (TV, bluetooth speaker, etc). The hot tub was lovely after a chilly outing at the beach. It's very dog-friendly with a fenced yard, plenty of room to romp, and cute touches like dog bowls and towels. The primary bedroom upstairs is a retreat. We'd love to come back in the summer!

This property was much larger than I anticipated from the pictures. Large kitchen and dining room, family room with a view and cozy living room. There's a nice sound system in the kitchen to stream music which made it so pleasant inside to listen to music and relax in the sitting room while drinking morning coffee or afternoon wine looking at the ocean view. Games and puzzles galore are in the cabinets and we enjoyed sitting relaxing reading and doing puzzles when we were not out hiking or exploring. The primary living room had the TV and nice comfy couch and pot belly stove for anyone wanting to watch TV. The view from the upstairs master bedroom is amazing and we found two window screens to put in the windows and we could hear the ocean at night once the cars on the 101 died down. The kitchen was huge and we were able to cook dinner the nights we didn't feel like going out. Had the cooking items we needed, but had to go out and get basics like oil. If you are coffee drinkers note they only provide 3 standard coffee filters for the coffee maker, so either pack extra or plan on buying a package of the basket filters when you buy coffee for your stay.

Lovely place, very communicative hosts, would stay again

This is a great property! The kitchen was quite well stocked! Gardens are amazing! Would definitely recommend to anyone!!!

Our stay was great. The house is very nice; large kitchen and a beautiful view of the ocean. The garden is large and full of flowers. It was perfect for us (4 people and a dog)!

Beautiful property this is our new favorite we will be back!

Extremely thoughtful and much appreciated. The home was very clean and as advertised. It had everything we needed to enjoy our time. My favorites during our stay was waking up to the beautiful views of Whale Rock and ocean each morning, the hot tub to enjoy garden and ocean views on chilly days and nights, and the ease of near by trails for hikes around the bluffs. Such a gem. We look forward to returning soon.

Thanks to the Mendo Preferred staff for finding my socks that I left! It's a long story....
