First of all the room is amazing. Sarah and Evan have done a beautiful job of creating a really lovely space for their guests. The bed is truly one of the most comfortable sleeping experiences ever, and you can see the ocean without raising your head from the pillow! The bathroom is also big, full of light, and really well designed. The skylight over the shower makes for a really magical experience. The closet is also nice and big to hold all your luggage and give an ample dressing area. The house is super close to everything. The beach and downtown PG are just a few streets away and it only takes 10 minutes to get to the middle of Carmel. The aquarium member passes are also great, you can get in half an hour before it opens to the general public with no waiting in line! Sarah and Evan are also really wonderful people. We got to talk to Sarah quite a lot and she was a very gracious and thoughtful lady. She bent over backwards to be helpful and even helped up find a babysitter so we could go to a concert at the Bach Festival. She even took our two year old on a walk with little doggy Zeus (who is also a sweetheart!) If you stay, definitely take the dining and driving recommendations Sarah gives, they are super helpful. I couldn't recommend Sarah and Evan's place highly enough. I would stay there anytime I come to the Monterey area and will definitely be coming back. The price is almost unbelievable considering the quality of the room itself and the friendly and helpful hosts!
