We had a wonderful weekend hanging out in this great little rental and using it as home base. The place was equipped with everything we needed (including a coffee grinder, wine and beer!)We enjoyed the decor, and found the living room quite comfortable. We also prefer the TV not being the central feature of a home, so it worked great for us having it in the back bedroom. The weather was glorious our first day, and we loved hanging out in the sun on the back deck. As mentioned repeatedly by others, this would work for 4 guests who like being cozy with each other; the layout would make it difficult and a little cramped for 2 couples. It is great for 2, however. The 2 of us are on kind of different sleeping schedules, and there were enough ways to access the back bedroom, the bathroom, the outside, etc. that we could each do what we wanted without disturbing the other during our "alone" hours awake. We have stayed in vacation rentals in the Monterey Bay Area, and specifically near Asilomar Beach numerous times, but had never done a vacation rental this close to the heart of Pacific Grove. The location was absolutely terrific for easy, walking access to town, to Lover's Point, and to visit the harbor seals and their pups along the walking/bike path. It was a squeeze, but our Prius fit in the driveway, and we didn't move it from the time we arrived. We did a whale watching cruise, and took Lyft to get to the wharf. The humpbacks put on an unbelievable show for us... bested our Hawaiian whale watching tour by quite a lot. We also enjoyed the Natural History Museum a few blocks from the rental. We could have easily made meals in, given the amenities available, but chose to eat out. Had great breakfasts at Holly's and Aliotto's, great dinners at Wildfish and Fandango. Thank you, James! One fantastic Mother's Day!!
