What a phenomenal place! Great location, excellent cottage, superb hospitality, and all of the amenities you could ever ask for.
Location. Compass Rose cottage is in the best location of Pacific Grove. Just a block away from the water, you will wake up everyday with a phenomenal view of the sunrise. It's close enough to everything, but not in the main road where all cars are passing by.
Cottage. The cottage itself is quaint, but very well stocked. Everything you will ever need is available, from the usual pots, pans, plates, toiletries, towels, etc to the more obscure coloring books, board games, office supplies, and anything else you might think of. The patio is a great place as well to just relax, read the newspaper, have meals while you enjoy the view.
Hospitality. Hosts are very responsive and you're sure to get a reply quickly every time. Nothing too big or too small of a request. I asked if there was a rice cooker, and on the day of my arrival, a brand new rice cooker was there in the kitchen. Superb.
Overall, I had a terrific month long stay at Compass Rose. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone interested in spending some time in paradise.
