This place was amazing. It was clean and spacious. We loved the decor and furniture, the windows offer a beautiful view of the bay, and the front porch was the best. On two afternoons we sat on the front porch and were able to watch whales and sea lions frolicking in the water. Definitely a highlight of the stay. We stayed with our two kids - ages 3 and 6 - and they loved it too. Just across the street was a sandy beach with rocks and tide pools to explore. I'm so glad we chose to stay right on the water for our trip to Monterey. Next time we visit, we will 100% look to stay here again.
