We had a wonderful family Christmas at Paul's house at Pacific Grove. The house was immaculate, and we found everything we needed, including a shiny washer-dryer, dishwasher, extra blankets, and plenty of silverware and pots and pans. We took a number of nice walks down to 17-mile drive, along the ocean. Several grocery stores and everything you need very close by, including a Trader Joe's. Great TV for movies. Paul and his wife were very responsive and accommodating, even allowing us a slightly later check-out time. We'll be back!
