Blake and Erika’s cottage is even prettier than its pictures and very welcoming. It is in a lovely quiet neighborhood, just blocks to the ocean and a short walk to historic Asilomar, where we enjoyed the gorgeous view and had coffee on the deck of the lodge. We walked the neighborhood trails, took the local bus to the Monterey Bay Aquarium with the guest tickets provided, went to lunch at the Red House Café, and enjoyed the freedom from parking and driving. Pacific Grove is a charming town to explore. Breakfast on the private courtyard patio of the cottage was delicious and a little luxury that was much appreciated. This was my first airbnb experience and an excellent one.
