Fabulous

I am a rental property owner so I know what it takes to serve clients. This property was perfect. It was super clean, had wonderful amenities, a welcomed surprise gift, and perfect location. 3 golfing buddies and I shared the home. It’s the ideal foursome one or two night stay-only 20 minutes from Pebble Beach. Also it’s only 3 miles from a state park and expansive beach area. I highly recommend it.

Will stay again

The house was perfect for our needs. Clean, the beds were very comfortable. The neighborhood was great for dog walking. It was a great value for the price. We will definitely rent again when we come back Monterey.

Love the house and location

Marina is close to Monterey Aquarium and the rest of places one wants to see and enjoy in the Monterey Bay. The house comfortably accommodated my family and a small dog. We enjoyed the place and would recommend it.

Wonderful place for multi family vacation

We absolutely loved this place. Really nice details such as the table already set for us. Full tea selection (in the cupboard above the coffee area). To help anyone with their planning, the configuration is one queen & 1 shared bathroom downstairs, en suite king plus 2 queens & 1 shared bathroom upstairs. Really well kitted out for kids, including a walk in closet with a pack n play already in it in the primary! Had to reach out to host to get check in instructions, but was very helpful. Loved and recommend!
