A great stay if you want access to a kitchen and walking distance to the rec trail and downtown PG. The cost and amenities are comparable to the midrange hotels in the area. Great for couples - we would stay again.
We loved everything about this cute little place. We found it comfortable and it supplied our basic needs during our stay. And the location can't be beat! We would return to the Fountain Avenue apartment if/when we return to Pacific Grove.
Awesome experience here! Close to everything—Pacific Grove is a great little town for walking, dining, and shopping and this apartment allows walking to everything. It’s right next to the bayfront walkway, which has spectacular water views. The apartment itself is extremely spacious with a large bathroom and full kitchen equipped with all we needed for our stay. The bed was very comfortable and there was a lot of closet space. Some sound from tenants above walking at times but other than that, perfectly quiet and in a lovely neighborhood. A couple of minutes by car to all Monterey attractions as well. We would absolutely stay again!
Great location just steps from Lover's Beach and short walk to main street with restaurants, shops and galleries.Accommodation is basic, but functional. Kitchen is adequate but not for much more than simple meal prep Plenty of on street parking.

Great place with all the necessary items and amenities. Super walkable and close to the waterfront, lively eateries, amazing bakery with the best coffee and bookstore.
Wonderful location and great small vacation home for two, very clean & the bed was so comfortable! Unfortunately the sofa described as well as pictured in the listing has been replaced with the a loveseat that we were unable to sit in, it sits mere inches off the ground with no padding, really awful. The host contact never responded to texts or phone messages, finally able to contact property manager after hours who sent someone to install risers to lift the sofa up a few inches…. We made do, and other that that it was a really nice place!

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Kitchen had minimal supplies. The biggest problem was that the sofa was terrible, very low to the ground, no cushions and not the white leather couch pictured on the website. We had to use pillows to sit on the couch. We contacted the host with no response. Also, the washer/dryer was smelly and required change to operate. Great location, just needs imporvement with furnishings.

A great location by the sea and a fully equipped house.
Enjoyed the stay and would return!
Thanks
Very good property to stay! 1/2 block from the ocean trail and about 3 blocks from downtown. Loads of shops and restaurants to peruse. About a mile walk along the ocean trail to the aquarium and Cannery Row. Fully stocked kitchen of pots, pans etc.if you wanted to cook. Only downside was very inexpensive/very uncomfortable furniture in living room. Would stay again if they upgraded the couch.
Nestled just steps from Lover’s Point Beach and the scenic Coastal Recreational Trail, this charming 1-bedroom, 1‑bath flat offers a refreshingly cozy getaway in a beautifully restored Victorian. This walk-to-the-beach or to-town retreat sleeps two comfortably and is ideal for couples looking for a quaint coastal escape. Clean and comfy.
We have used Monterey Rentals many times and will again.
The property is as described in this VRBO listing. The property location is very residential and amazing. A short walk both to the beach and to downtown with lots of restaurant choices. We were very happy with our stay on Fountain Ave!
We loved the location! The apartment was clean and well appointed. We cooked most of meals there and had everything we needed. It is a quick walk to multiple restaurants and you can see the water from the front windows.

Great location
The Fountain Avenue rental was just lovely. The neighborhood was great with all the neighbors being very friendly. We were just several houses away from Monterey Bay coastal Trail. Just down the trail from lovers point. Great restaurants and shops several blocks away on Lighthouse Ave. Specially loved the little red house for breakfast. Great drinks and entertainment at pop and hiss. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Bath towels were exceptionally thick and luxurious. Bed was super comfortable. Would definitely stay there again! Had a weird washer dryer set up.
Lovely place perfect location in pacific Grove. Close to beach, walking to town and along coast. Short ride to monterey and carmel. Nice quiet neighborhood. Place is well kept and conveniently located.
Great location -walking distance to so many things. Street parking in front of house was available every time we got back to the house after an outing. Very quiet neighborhood,
which was really nice and relaxing.
