Casa Panama: Relax in Luxury on the Sonoma Coast

Casa Panama's spectacular setting is overlooking the Russian River Estuary and Pacific Ocean with breathtaking views and sunny living areas. This well-appointed property is surrounded by thousands of acres of parkland and open space. A haven for restorative retreats, reunions and family gatherings, and for the activity minded, there is bird watching, hiking, biking and kayaking at your doorstep. With the Covid-19 crisis we are now under mandated operational and official best practices. At this time we thought it would be better to recommend Casa Panama with a lower occupancy of 6-8. For your security, we have not only added the recommended COVID-19 measures but we hope to exceed that. ( *See complete cleaning protocol near the bottom of this page) Casa Panama's designer kitchen, eclectic furnishings, and fine art collection create a unique and restful retreat. Enjoy a sunny private deck just outside the living/ dining rooms for a sun-drenched meal. From this vantage point, you will have incredible views from morning until sunset of the river to the coast! The state of the art kitchen has all new appliances: large gas stove and oven, family-size refrigerator, two stainless prep sinks, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee maker, gourmet cooking supplies, 2 sets of coordinated dishes, glassware, and table linens. Four elegantly furnished bedrooms (three of which are appointed with HDTV's) and plush linens ensure a comfortable and luxurious night sleep. Each of the four bedrooms has high end comfortable queen or king size beds to guarantee you have a great night sleep! Plus the family room sofa converts into a comfortable queen sleeper. There are three bedrooms and two baths upstairs and one bedroom with den and one on the lower floor. A total of 4 bedrooms and 3 baths. (When Casa Panama is NOT rented we do offer the lower floor, the Casatina Suite, as a stand-alone rental. See listing number 904724. If you need MORE SPACE let Toni know because we are now able to convert the house into an even larger space sleeping 12-16.) Then just outside the downstairs door find a versatile outdoor living space that includes several seating areas with a gas grill big enough to serve your entire gathering with ease. Use the kitchenette for serving and cleanup. Enjoy the new undercover bar on that same patio for coffee or wine tasting. A few steps from there are two big deep comfy sofas on the lower deck under yellow umbrellas overlooking the river and coast. Here you can watch the river as it seems to wrap around the property and flow out to sea. On this same deck is the guaranteed perfect place to unwind while watching the sunset and the stars glisten from the hot tub. Casa Panama is located along scenic Hwy 1, ten miles north of Bodega Bay and twelve miles west of Guerneville or 30 miles from Santa Rosa. Enjoy access to California's most picturesque beaches, the Russian River, redwoods, parkland and Sonoma Counties most renowned wineries. See Casa Panama.net page for additional pictures if needed. The Jenner Headlands is now open with 14 miles of new trail. This park is over 3000 acres with new trails being added every year. When you check in we will give you the combination to the back residents gate just a short walk from Casa Panama. You can also drive a mile and a half north of Jenner and hike from the main gate. This is likely the best hiking with the most stunning views anywhere in Sonoma County! The downstairs floor of Casa Panama is called Casatina ( listing number 904724) and can be rented only when Casa Panama is NOT rented. Casatina sleeps 2-4. Casatina has its own garden entrance, living room with kitchenette, bath and bedroom with spectacular river and coastal views with a warm inviting ambiance. You will have access to all the same outdoor spaces, decks and hot tub. The owners unit at Casa Panama is called Villa Vista. It can be seen at listing number 1816396. This unit can be added to your rental to give you additional space. When we do this we open up an area normally closed between the units for sound proofing. With this combination of renting the two units you get another large attic space with a queen size bed and a third staircase that joins the units allowing the entire property to sleep up 14-16. When we open the house you have the additional access to cross over decks that join the properties and another beautiful large deck with ocean views. (The attic space is not yet pictured in the listing but Toni can send you a photo.) * I want to acknowledge these are stressful times. We all need family getaways maybe more now than ever but we need to feel safe. Here's the extra precautions we are taking to advance our 5* cleaning service for our guests and family and friends. Since viruses die faster in sunlight and in high humidity, we immediately open the house hours before your arrival and air it out completely. At Casa Panama we are fortunate to have the benefit of full sun from sun-up to sundown with higher humidity. Couple that with fresh air and sea breezes and you will likely agree this atmosphere can revitalize both your health and your spirit. As a proactive precaution we are wiping down all hard surfaces including floors, cabinets, counter surfaces, doorknobs, light switches and appliances with a bleach solution. Remote controls are cleaned with a special product for that purpose. Since the best defense against active viruses remains frequent hand washing we make sure there is plenty of soap, paper towels and sanitizing wipes in all kitchens and bathrooms for your use. All bedding, including sheets, pillowcases and comforter duvets are changed, washed and sanitized. All decorative pillows have been removed (our apologies for this inconvenience but it seems like a wise precaution). We use anti bacterial fabric spray on all soft surfaces. We want to thank you for your patronage and let you know how much we care about your families’ welfare and your experience here. Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions, concerns or comments.
