Incredible Location

Beautiful stay, truly steps from the beach -- we could watch the sunrise over the water. The home had lovely character, it was comfortable for our stay - two adults. Very clean, with nice touches from the host. Kitchen was well equipped, with some spices, etc. available in the cabinet. A couple of things to note - we missed the fact that one bedroom is only accessible through the other. I was traveling with a friend and we didn't mind, but it might not work for everyone, depending on your group. Also, we didn't use the TV but if that's important to you in the evenings it is in one of the bedrooms, not the common area. The shopping district is a block or two away, there was a Monday farmers market when we arrived and there are plenty of cute shops and restaurants.Great access to Big Sur, 17 Mile Drive, etc. Would stay here again!

Charming home in Pacific Grove

The darling home served as a wonderful getaway. Loved the quiet street, water views, and quaint garden. The perfect location to walk or bike from Asilomar to Seaside. Many iconic dining options a few blocks away. Would stay again for sure! Thanks.

Perfect Location!

This was our second stay here and it was great! The location/view can't be beat. The back patio area was delightful. Parking in front of the house was never an issue, and our stay was during a very busy Monterey Car Week! Communication with the owner was superb. We are a fan of antiques, so the decor was spot on with us. We would stay here again!

Great Location for 7 day stay

Three houses down to the bay, beach & coastal walking path. Short walking distance to Cannery Row. Mid-way between 17 Mile Dr (Carmel/Point Lobos) and the historic Old Fisherman’s Wharf for whale-watching. Grand St. is not a typical through-street so easy parking with limited traffic and sidewalk traffic. Lots of privacy. The house is Victorian-style inside, but the LR sofa & chair are very comfortable. The LR table by the window provides a good work space & views of the bay. Despite being a historic home, there are multiple electric outlets in every room & good internet/TV connections. The kitchen is well-supplied, but we only used it for ready-made items & reheating leftovers from our daily restaurant meal. The house has a cozy ambiance with gas fireplace & accent lighting at night in LR & outside back patio. The bathroom has a very large, deep open space in the middle section of the built-in cabinet that holds all needed toiletries. Two important things to be aware of: 1. The 2 very comfortable bedrooms are connected - the queen bedroom has doors to the LR, the double-bed sized BDR, & the bathroom. The double BDR (with a large pullout wall TV screen) only has a door to the queen BDR (close to the bath). The bath also has a door to the kitchen. 2. The bathroom has a sink and a claw-ft bathtub. If you have any mobility/balance issues, it may be a little challenging to get out. The 3-sided wall next to the tub can be held to help. ENJOY…WE LOVED OUR STAY!

We love the area and enjoy the house. It’s clean and great location. Parking can be frustrating at times because the bed and breakfast across the street and others will park in front of the house :( But we’ve been very happy here- it’s our second time in this house and i recommended it to my sister who stayed the week before us!

Infested with Spiders, old, smelly, no parking. Came home with spiders in our suitcases

Ruined our 5 year wedding anniversary Poor communication / Weird owner. He Thought we were staying starting the night before. apparently can’t read a calendar. Asked “are you in?” The day BEFORE He Takes a looong time to get back to you. Spiders. Had to hunt and kill a large aggressive spider at 4:00am terrified wife. Then couldn’t sleep Owners late response: “my wife was at the house last weekend and she didn’t see a single spider”. Hilarious. Doesn’t even deserve a response Said Would refund if we left and stayed elsewhere the next night- Seriously?does not make up for anything or help the situation. In fact it would make it worse. Now you are stuck having to find another place, pack, move etc. Old Bed way too soft. You will sink in. kills your back No parking. There’s a drive way, but only a tiny Fiat would fit- NOTHING else. you’ll have to park blocks away and walk back Grandmas creepy old house. Bad taste. I like deco / vintage but this is creepy, old, smelly, gross. Overkill with paintings jammed everywhere Hand soap in bathroom empty. Ants in kitchen. Family pictures. Hours later: Ok so just got home, unpacking. Had a plastic bag with clothes to be washed - inside another spider, it got, ran. I had to hunt and kill it. Seriously the last straw Later again: went through all items -one by one- in my suitcase and my wife’s: there was another spider in one of her her shoes.Thanks for wasting more of my time VRBO/James

About the host

Hosted by james white

I grew up on the Monterey Peninsula and always wanted to share my amazing childhood memories with my family. Now as an adult, visiting has become so much more. This beach house is our escape from the city and connection to nature.

Why they chose this property

We love the untouched, historical nature of Pacific Grove. But truly the seaside location was key for us... We explore the tide pools looking for interesting creatures, jog along the shoreline trail and, well, everyone from this area has a least one family member who plays golf! Shopping for antiques and eating somewhere interesting are also factored into the day.

What makes this property unique

There is always something to do on the Peninsula
