My family had a wonderful two-night stay in this house. Everything was convenient. The house is an easy 10-20 minute drive to anywhere in Monterey or Carmel, and there is a grocery store just 2 minutes away. We really enjoyed the back yard / patio and the peaceful neighborhood. The house is well furnished and equipped, and it was a plus having TVs in the bedrooms and a washer and dryer. We would happily stay here again if we are ever back in the Monterey area! One small thing to note - this house is managed by a third-party vacation rental company, so you will need to complete a booking process on their website, and the instructions and details they send will not necessarily match exactly what is shown on Airbnb. It wasn't a problem for us, but it does add a layer of complexity.

Nice rental, close to ocean

★★★★★ 5 of 5

This was our first trip to Monterey, house was a nice size for a family of 5. Located about 10 min from the ocean, down the street from a Safeway and within 15 min of the Aquarium, Carmel by the sea, Pebble beach and Laguna Seca racetrack. Updates to the house were nice. Had an issue with black ants in the kitchen, Vacasa sent a team to spray and bring some ant killer. We didn’t let them spray but the baits were placed and did the job. Backyard patio and seating is really nice. Would stay here again.

We spent 4 nights here reconnecting with some old friends we hadn't seen in 30 years. The house was spotless with a very well equipped kitchen and comfortable furniture and beds. The yard is nicely landscaped and the backyard is lots of outside seating and shade in the afternoon. It's in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic on the street. There's a nature reserve about three blocks away with a nice 3/4 mile path around a wetland. The front door lock was a little finicky at times. It requires a 10 digit code and sometimes it would just quit accepting numbers before we could get all 10 entered. Other than that, we had no complaints and it served our needs perfectly.
