Hi, we stayed here for 2 nights in September 2014. We were driving down the coast road from San Francisco to LA and booked a stop here to visit the Monterey Peninsula.

This property is an absolute gem. It's location, the communication from Blake and Erika on how to get there, how to get in if they were not there on our arrival (which they weren't) was excellent. The breakfast supplied was a great start to the day and to be enjoyed in the privacy of your own patio area. A humming bird joined us each morning at breakfast time, fascinating watching it hover and the noise it makes.

5 minutes walk and you are on the beach front where you can walk round to the Fisherman's Wife restaurant.

5 minutes drive and you can join the "17 mile drive", €10 dollars to do the drive, but worth every cent. Half way round and you come across one of the most famous golf courses in the World, Pebble Beach. Well worth a stop and walk around if you are into golf, or even if your not.

Carry on along the "17 mile drive" and you get to Carmel. It was a Saturday when we were there and parking was difficult. A suggestion maybe to start at Carmel and come back via Pebble Beach and the "17 mile drive".

Whatever you do, there can't be many other properties that match this. It was as I said, a gem.
