About this property

Romantic Light Filled Coastal Beach Cottage.

The Pink House is a romantic light filled beach cottage with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and Dillon Beach. The living room can be prescribed as an anti-depressant. Just sit in the living room for a few minutes and you'll understand.

Sitting up on a hill in the charming village of Dillon Beach, the Pink House is built like a ship's cabin, featuring a white, all wood interior, skylights, ocean views and inset stained glass windows.

You can have Tomales Bay oysters at a local cafe and finish your day in the hot tub, as the moon rises over the glistening sea. The backyard is private and secluded....Or go for a walk on the beach or a dip in the ocean, it's only a two minute walk.

Get away, refresh your spirit and soak in the happiness that comes with being at the beach.

Rent it and see for yourself!

Get away vacation

We enjoyed the Pink House greatly. It has a terrific location to Dillion beach. It was very clean and had more amenities than expected; in the kitchen. The only downside was the pool was not working and the hot tub was perhaps leaking and could have been hotter. The 2 front burners on the stove were not working correctly. Charming place.

Beach Getaway

Perfect relaxing beach getaway for my wife and I plus our dogs. House was charming and comfortable with nice amenities. The close proximity to the beach made for an easy walk and allowed multiple visits to the beach each day during our stay.

Perfect Beach House!

We had a perfect time here. This house has everything you might need, it's SUPER functional and also very simple, clean, + well designed. The backyard with pool + jacuzzi was wonderful to have. We walked to the beach every morning + was a great jumping point to go grab breakfast/lunch in occidental/tomales. We will be back again + again!

Our Stay was Cut Short by Unforeseen Events

Much to our disappointment, we had to cut our trip short to a single night although we ultimately paid for the two nights we originally booked. The reason was our diabetic and blind dog developed complications and we had to get him back to the vet. The Pink House was otherwise a very nice property with great access to the beach. We did encounter some initial problems with the Wi-Fi and a technician had to come out to restore the system around 8pm that evening. Normally, this wouldn't have been a big deal except our daughter had been planning on finishing up some college course assignments that required on-line research and were due that evening. The only other thing is that it seemed a bit quirky that the only television was located in the bedroom rather than a common area but we weren't there to watch TV so it wasn't that big of a deal. All in all, an enjoyable property and a big shout-out to Linda, the property manager, for being responsive and understanding to our needs.

Amazing Stay @ the Pink House

We loved our three night stay at Jim’s beautiful pink house! The location was great, quick walk to the store and the beach. The bed was so comfortable! The hot tub was amazing and the outside shower has warm water! We made breakfast and dinner at home and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The lap pool wasn’t available the first day but the owner was amazing and offered us an extra night. Sadly, we had already made dinner plans but he let us have a late check out so we weren’t rushed packing and getting ready to head out. We would definitely stay again. Can’t beat the location and the views.

City getaway

The pink house was our home over a holiday weekend. It's a short walk from Dillon Beach. and from the local store that had everything you might need including espresso and frozen yogurt. The house had everything we need. The living room was sparse with no TV. There is a bunk bed in the common area next to the oddly laid out kitchen. The lap pool in the back was not functional, maybe due to season. Despite these downs, the quirky kitchen had what we needed including an awesome stove, the bedroom was beyond comfortable with a TV, the hot tub fabulous especially on a cold winter night. We definitely had an unforgettable, magical stay in the pink house.

Serenity amidst a storm

We love this property, even more so after this week’s stay. A bomb cyclone storm was due but we went anyway. Linda, the property manager, warned us of possible power outages. When we did lose power Linda came out in the storm to bring us a lantern and candles. She then checked in to make sure we had enough wood for the amazing wood burning stove. All this made our for a serene, relaxing and cozy stay. Thank you Linda!

Bright Beach Chalet

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property at Dillon Beach. We were there to relax and enjoy the sounds of the ocean waves and we did just that. The pool and hot tub were fantastic, we enjoyed the hot tub every morning in the crisp air and enjoyed the pool in the mid afternoon heat after walking up and down the beach with our dog. Thanks for allowing us to make memories at this beautiful home.
