Wow! Where to begin?! The Monarch Home is the perfect place to stay in Pacific Grove. The location is so convenient—just minutes from the Monarch Sanctuary, restaurants and shops in downtown Pacific Grove, and the water. We absolutely loved how thoughtful of a host Anne is. Everything in the house is labeled with helpful instructions so it's easy to turn on the heater, work the lights, find extra bedding, etc. It was also a fantastic place to stay with our infant. In addition to having a pack n' play for him to sleep in, there were a number of books and toys to keep him occupied in the living room. Anne does an amazing job of making sure the house is outfitted with everything you could possibly need to make your stay enjoyable, including a fully stocked kitchen, toiletries, books and magazines, beach supplies and more. The house is also beautifully decorated. It truly felt like the perfect home away from home. Anne was quick to respond to questions and had excellent communication with us from the moment we booked our stay to the moment we checked out. What a gem! Highly recommend!!
