The Pacific Grove house is amazing. The location can't be beat: easily walkable via beautiful mixed use path to either Lover's Point Beach or the Monterey Bay Aquarium. The house itself is nice, with lovely views of the ocean, nice rooms, and good bathrooms. Both Sanctuary Vacation Rentals and Irma, the owner of the house, are communicative, helpful and friendly. Street parking is plentiful. Good restaurants not too far away.
I stayed with my family and parents, and it turned out that my father accidentally left his wedding ring at the house when we checked out. Irma was able to find the ring, and she met my father in the Bay Area to return the ring. We're grateful!
Note that the house is very creaky -- you cannot walk around silently! Light sleepers may want to bring a white noise machine. (Since we were traveling with an infant and a toddler, we brought white noise machines to help with their naps and sleeping, and I'm glad we did.)
The kitchen has a coffee machine, but you'll need to bring or buy your own coffee.
If you're traveling to Monterey and planning to visit Pacific Grove, downtown Monterey, or the Monterey Bay Aquarium, I highly recommend this house and Sanctuary Vacation Rentals.
