Steps to the Beach-License # 0178

Steps to the Beach- Pacific Grove

Looking for a way to step back to a simpler way of life? Pacific Grove is known for offering this opportunity. Conveniently situated on the Monterey Bay between Pebble Beach and Monterey, this property is just steps to all that Pacific Grove has to offer; fine restaurants, coffee houses and local markets and quaint shops where the owners will know you by name. It is like stepping back in time.

Clean and neat with a living room-dining room, newly remodel bathroom and one large bedroom. Perfect quiet get away in a prime location to explore, Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach, Monterey, Carmel, Carmel Valley and Big Sur. Enjoy the many special events that are held in our area- Pebble Beach AT&T golf tournament, Pebble Beach Concours de Elegance, Monterey Bay Aquarium and Point Lobos. Lovers Point beach is literally one block away and is perfect to kayak, take advantage of this world class diving destination or just enjoy the beach. Plan your stay around the Historic Home Tour, Good Old Days, Feast of Lanterns, and Cherries Jubilee, Laguna Seca Raceway or many other events that make this one of the best destinations in the world. With all this said you may want to consider doing something that we seldom do for ourselves, bring a good book and just breathe.

Just a little side note-you may want to plan a visit to San Francisco, Hearst Castle or even Yosemite which are each very easy trips from this location.

In the mean time we look forward to sharing with you the Monterey Peninsula that we know and love.

We had a wonderful stay in Pacific Grove! Property owners were easy to communicate with, and the property was exactly as expected. We were close to the beach, Cannery Row, beautiful golf courses, many excellent restaurants, and had easy access to CA 1 and the 17 Mile Drive.

Perfect Vacation in Pacific Grove

What a wonderful place to stay when visiting the Monterey area. The home is 1 block from the Lover's Point and 1 block to the quaint quiet Pacific Grove downtown area. The bed was so comfortable, place was clean and had everything we needed for our 11 nights there. Loved to sit outside and enjoy the neighbourhood.

The location of this apartment couldn't be better. We walked the coastal trails which are just one block away. Restaurants are also in easy walking distance and Linda had left a list of great places to try. We were attending a conference at Asilomar, which is only a five minute drive. The apartment has everything needed for a comfortable stay. We were there for seven nights and ate at home three of those. The kitchen is small, but adequately stocked. We loved being in Pacific Grove. Less crowded than Carmel, but so lovely. We will definitely stay at this apartment again.
