Excellent vista views of the bay from the patio and balcony. Saw more whales breaching than we’ve ever seen before in the Monterey Bay. Super clean, quality amenities, cozy, quiet, excellent for two. The cottage is older with its quirks, but nothing noteworthy that impacts the positive experience. The parking is under a canopy of evergreens that drip small sap droplets, but nothing major. The overall sound of the crashing waves below all day and night is amazing. Beach was a short bike or hike away. We really enjoyed the beach cottage and plan on returning again soon.
