Oceanview Designer Beach House 2 Free Movie Passes license #0366

Relax on the balcony and enjoy one of the most beautiful view's on earth. It is such a beautiful spot that many weddings take place right across the street at Berwick Park. Enjoy taking a walk along the path along side the ocean. Monterey Aquarium and the Outlets are a five to ten-minute walk. (Holidays are 3 night minimum) I have a "Beach Gear" section in the gurst room closest. I have beach towels, boogie board, bucket & shovel, beach umbrella, beach bags, beach blankets. Enjoy the beach!

The Beach House is decorated by an Interior Designer and has a feeling of relaxation and comfort. It has a Nautical and Beach theme. It has wonderful thick Egyptian towels and high count sheets and linens. The electric towel warmer is great especially in the Winter months. The fireplace facing the oceanview is a perfect place to enjoy a book. It is a true place of relaxation.

It has a full kitchen with all of the latest equipment. If you cook, you can enjoy the best views in Monterey or if you go out, there are wonderful restaurants walking distance to Cannery Row.

DO NOT BE FOOLED
DO NOT BE FOOLED by the good reviews on this listing. The bad reviews are accurate to what you will experience. Views and the location are great but that is where it ends. After accidentally arriving a bit before the 3pm check-in time and seeing the place was still dirty we immediately left. We returned at 3:35 to made beds, dirty kitchen, trash full of old bananas and to go food, dirty rubber gloves on a chair, and a used band-aid on the nightstand. The furniture is extremely worn and dirty. We only felt comfortable sitting on the couch after covering it with multiple sheets. The window in bathroom is broken and will not lock. It’s accessible from an exterior staircase that leads to other units in the complex. A safety concern that we were not willing to take. Owner argues it’s not broken and 99% of people like it open. Its broken and the option to secure the window should be there. When confronted the owner was unapologetic, as you can see by her response to previous negative reviews, and as you will most likely see as a response to this review. She indicates previous renters never reported until they wrote the review. I was very transparent from day one BUT that did not change her attitude or provide the ability for her to take any ownership of the condition of the property. We stayed at a hotel and never slept a night at this property. After working directly with VRBO and the owner not a single portion of the rental was refunded. Beware of renting this property.

My sister, sister inlaw, myself rented the perfect house in the perfect location to celebrate our moms 80th birthday. The memories will be cherished forever. Thank you so very much. Waking up having coffee every morning on the patio looking at the ocean and hearing the waves was breathtaking.

Beautiful Pacific Grove location
We absolutely loved the location of this unit. Spectacular views of the ocean right across the street; nice park like setting with great walking paths. Close to the Monterey Bay Aquarium (owner offers 2 free passes)... we took a whale watching trip from the harbor... within 2 miles of the condo. Had a wonderful time with nice cool weather which we appreciated. Would definitely recommend this place.

Needs a Deep Clean
The location of the property is great that's why we are disappointed that house is not clean. The sofa, dining chairs and pillows are old, dirty and stained. The bed in the master bedroom squeaks. The windows in the second bedroom has black mold. It would be a great place if they did a deep clean and update their stuff. Having the aquarium passes is a great perk as it allowed us to skip the long line.

Perfect location with amazing view!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in a beautiful location. The kitchen is very well appointed. We enjoyed time on the balcony watching whales in the bay. We had a lot of fun playing games and cards at the dining table while enjoying the lovely view. I keep mentioning that view because it is spectacular! The home is conveniently located near grocery stores, Cannery Row and restaurants in the neighborhood. We highly recommend and hope to return for an extended stay. Thank you, Sally for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Could be better
The location is amazing. The unit is very cluttered and feels lived in. The shower in the main bath had a major leak which sprayed water on everything in the bathroom. There was an exposed outlet that was for the garbage disposal thst didnt work so the sink would back up constantly. The windows were very dirty amd had bird poo on them. The couches were dirty. Again it feels like the owner just popped out for our stay and left all personal belongings. The location is amazing and we loved the area. The unit needs some TLC and deep cleaning.

Location is tops!
Across the street from the ocean and a few minutes walk to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Plenty of safe parking- and free! Sally was a fine hostess, easy access at the appointed time. The kitchen could use a second look though, the dishes, glasses, plates and mugs are worn out and mismatched and there wasn’t a decent knife to be found. That said, we still had a great time.

Renter Beware
The description given as to what to expect in the home is false and misleading; the photos shown are very old.There was trash in the garden area.The “Beach Gear” section does have a boogie board, there was nothing else to label as “beach gear”. The closets were such a wreck with toilet paper, and disorganized “stuff” strewn across the floor, full of unfolded bedding piled up on the floor. Not sure if it was a pile of dirty laundry or not. There is so much clutter there is no where to place one’s things. "The Beach House is decorated by an Interior Designer" must have happened decades ago and since been overwrought by the owner and her hoarding. The sheets were very, very old, thin, and stained. None of the towels matched and all had stains. Decorative throw pillows had stains on them, the bed pillows in the guest room were very badly stained.The refrigerator had open containers of milk and half used dairy items. The floor was not clean, our socks provided evidence to that. Throw and area rugs are very dirty, heavily stained. There is a note from the owner on the toilet in the hall bathroom, “please hold handle down when flushing solid matter to prevent plugging”. Both shower curtains are dirty and torn. The rocking chair in the guest room was broken, the balcony chairs are falling apart, screws coming out, and paint badly chipped, other patio furniture is now very rusted. Lamps did not work, and extension cords everywhere with more notes from the owner to not unplug.

Great view and location with considerable condition problems.
About 4 days before our stay, through VRBO, I asked about the check-in details. I received an irate reply from the owner that, first, I had pulled her out of the shower, and curtly that I would get the details 3 days before the stay. We needed to check out a day early because my wife's back gave out. Wrote the owner asking if there was any refund for early check-out. Did not receive the courtesy of a reply. Here are the condition problems that we encountered: 1. First night couldn't get the floor panel heat to work. Next day owner said use the electric fireplace. Turned it on to encounter a dust cloud. 2. Master shower: leaks at the shower head joint. Sprayed all over the bathroom. 3. Hall toilet: runs all the time. 4. Best for last: as I was loading the car, my wife went to sit down on the chair on the patio. It collapsed and she wrenched her knee. That was almost a week ago and it still hurts. We will see an orthopedist as soon as we can get an appointment. We cleaned-up and are doubtful we will get out deposit -- if history with this owner proves correct.

We chose this home on short notice due to a change in plans. You can't beat the location...directly across from the water and trail system with outstanding views and within walking distance of most things you might need. The check in and check out process was super easy and the property manager responded to our queries promptly. The property was clean in general...kitchen, baths, floors, surfaces, etc. But as multiple previous reviews have indicated some things were just a bit off. Grimy coffee maker and dishwasher, musty smelling clothes washer are put offs for sure. Furniture is a little worn and stained here and there and sheets and towels were all mis-matched...also somewhat off putting. There are a lot of personal effects in this unit that we are unaccustomed to dealing with during VRBO stays, as other reviews have stated. Having said all that with just a little attention to these details this would be a 5 star property for us.
