The property is beautiful and meticulously maintained. It smells wonderful and is very clean. We met Natalie shortly after we arrived and she told us a little bit about the property and gave us some suggestions for things to do in the area. She was very nice and made us feel comfortable. From that point forward she gave us our privacy but did message us via the Airbnb app to check-in and make sure that everything was going well which we appreciated. Though we were on the move early and often there are common areas on the property for you to enjoy other than Casa V. The greenhouse is actually very cool and we would have enjoyed some coffee there but again we were up early and out the door. Part of the reason we didn’t get to enjoy the property as much as we would have liked is because of the location. There isn’t much to do in and around Casa V though there is a little area up the road with a few shops and restaurants. We spent most of our time there visiting Monterey and Carmel-by-the-Sea which is a 30-40 minute drive. If you don’t mind driving and seeing the area then you’ll be fine but if you enjoy walking out your door to a bar/restaurant or attraction of some kind you won’t get that here. We chose the location not knowing much about the area and it was fine for us, we had a rental car and were able to get where we wanted to go. Lastly, and the only complaint is the road out front of Casa V. There is a consistent flow of fast moving traffic through the area that you can hear pretty clearly in the morning as there is no AC and you’ll likely have the windows open. No AC no problem as the weather is very mild and comfortable at night. Overall we enjoyed our stay for visiting the central coast of California for the first time!
