Location

The location of this property is excellent as it has a short walk to the trail that runs along the beautiful shoreline. there is a musty smell on the ground floor and the garage is only big enough for two cars if they are both compacts, and the drive is too short to park a medium size vehicle.

Cali Adventure

This is a great place to stay if you are visiting the central coast. The location is close to the beach, but still away from the tourist traffic. It is centrally located to everything (shops, restaurants, aquarium, beach). The host was very accommodating and helpful. The home has what you need with the historic charm of Pacific Grove.

Great family vacay close to all the beach and Monterey have to offer

Nicely appointed house that is within walking distance of the Aquarium, Cannery Row, and Lovers Point Beach Park. Our family loved it. We slept comfortably, enjoyed the fully equipped kitchen, walked the beach multiple times, played golf nearby and walked to restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet and pleasant. We would stay here again in a minute.

Perfect for us

This was the perfect house and location for us. Beach and ocean at the end of the block and Restaurants 2 blocks and walkable. House had 3 spacious bedrooms, a large kitchen and a good size living area. Garage fit 2 midsize SUV’s; tight but doable. Small outside area in front, but no backyard. 10 minutes to Aquarium and Cannery Row

Great Location

Spacious and comfortable home at a great location! Easy to get to restaurants and activities from Monterey to Carmel. Having garage access was great for parking. Owner communicates timely with us. He graciously worked to accommodate our last minute request. We enjoyed the cool ocean breezes, but wished there were screens on the windows. There was no DVD player as advertised; thankfully, we were able to hook up our portable player to their TV. We would rent from this home again.

Overall nice stay. the house is in an amazing location. It is a bit dated and I feel needs updating but is clean and well kept. The kitchen is well stocked. There were only 2 rolls of toilet paper and when I texted the response was not great.

Communication with host

Property and location were great. It was worrisome prior to check in as to what the procedure was website said they would contact us 24 hours before to let us know what the procedure was for checking in period we didn’t hear from them until that morning, which was kind of worrisome and stressful

Lovely stay at Lovers' Point

The property is a little bit dated, but clean and comfortable, with large bedrooms with comfortable beds. The location is fabulous, close to good restaurants, walks along the shore, biking or long walking to lots of Monterey. We had the good fortune to spend an hour or so watching whales jumping in the distance from the point one evening - that was one magical moment in a lovely week. Family did two days at the aquarium, one day at the beach, and one day of whale watching, plus we did some hiking further down the coast. On our departure, property managers were very helpful in reporting a forgotten portable extra laptop screen in a timely fashion, and helped us get it back while the cleaning crew was still there.

Good location and decent house

We have stayed in a lot of VRBO properties. Few odd things about this one were that (a) even though the house had four bedrooms and sleeping capacity for 8, there was a charge for each guest over 4 per night. Just be careful when your rent. (b) the check-in process was difficult with the need to meet a property manager when you check in. This was a pain for us as we were traveling from another city and our timing was just not firm so we were texting all afternoon. Kitchen was not stocked well with cooking equipment if you plan to cook there. All that said, the location was good, the house was fairly clean.

Perfect beach house less than a block from the ocean

We recently spent the New Year's holiday in this wonderful home. We were an extended family of 7 traveling together (4 adults, 3 kids) and the house fit us perfectly. The kitchen was very well equipped (although could use a tea kettle) and the family room with wood burning stove was comfortable and cozy during the cool, rainy weather we experienced. Differing from the photos posted, there is a new, beautiful large dining table with bench seating that we used for family dinners and playing board games (which were provided at the house). All of the bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. Within walking distance are many shops and restaurants, as well as the gorgeous Lover's Point park and the walking trail along the coast. From the trail, on which we walked to the Monterrey Aquarium, we saw otters, seals, and even whales breaching!! Just spectacular. We would definitely stay here again if we return to the Monterrey area.

Fabulous location

Loved how close this was to the beach area. Beds were super comfy and kitchen well equipped. Since we only had one car, the garage worked great for us as the street is always pretty full and super narrow! Liked the keyless entry which made it easier. So many things to do that are close by that it's hard to choose.

Fell in love with Lover's Point

Just steps from Lover's Point, Pacific Grove. Probably one of the most picturesque spots in the area with a protected swim beach, coffee, food, rentals, and a short, cliffside walk Into a Monterey Aquarium and Cannery Row. There's even a quick stop on the way to see the harbor seals. The house itself is absolutely beautiful, updated, spacious and perfectly appointed. Plenty of towels for the home and beach. All the beds have memory foam mattresses and high-quality linens. Best night sleep I've had in a while. The kitchen is perfect for preparing any level of cuisine including a gas grill which was immaculate and ready to use. The dining area is very comfortable and spacious. There is a cozy living room on the second floor, and another cozy sitting area on the first floor which were wonderful for relaxing in the evening.The hosts, Larry and Megan have equiped the house with everything you could possibly need. Communication was plentiful and check in and check out were effortless. Overall, the home and location enhanced the fun, relaxation and connections we had on our visit. We would eagerly rent this property again for a return visit to Pacific Grove.. Thanks again Larry and Megan.

Small Family Weekend Trip

Check in process was cumbersome. I printed, signed, scanned the first form that was sent to me- (I had to redo with another form, they failed to fill out our totals.) Electronic DocuSign would streamline the process. Overall check in communication was lacking. All that aside, the house was nice. Beds were comfortable. The full description could be updated to adequately inform you that the kitchen has a keurig and not a traditional coffee pot as pictured. There were no kcups provided. The upstairs tub did not have a stopper, it was frustrating going downstairs and back up at bedtime with little ones. The location was perfect. It was a quick easy walk to the beach even with little ones. A lot of neat things to see nearby.

Exceeds expectations!

This place was the perfect choice for 3 adults in separate bedrooms. Each bedroom is so attractive and spacious that we didn't need to flip a coin over who got what room - everyone was happy. Beds are extremely comfortable. Kitchen is open and has enough cooking and dining utensils for preparing a meal if desired. Location is awesome, steps to the beach and mere blocks to the restaurants and shops. The house itself is very appealing and spotlessly clean. Nice full size bathrooms too. Everyone in my party felt like we'd scored in finding this place. Pacific Grove itself is a very pretty town with a great vibe.
