This is our second time to stay in this lovely home. You will not be disappointed ! Jane and her husband wonderful hosts who went above and beyond the call of duty when I lost a piece of jewelry deep beneath a crevice in floorboard. It was quite an undertaking to retrieve it for which I’m very thankful!

Amazing stay on the water!

This home is beautiful and relaxing and we had a wonderful time on the patio by the fire watching the otters every evening. The house is walkable to the aquarium and the heart of Monterrey. Jane is an amazing host and very helpful and responsive. The pictures are exactly as described and we will definitely stay here again when in the area.

We loved our stay here! The house is beautiful, clean, cozy, and comfortable. You can take in the views of the bay from the comfort of the living room or step out onto the front porch, light the fire pit, and take in otters, seals, and if you’re lucky some whales. The location was great for exploring the area on foot or a short drive to iconic scenery like The Lone Cypress at Pebble Beach. The property owners/managers are extremely friendly and made us feel right at home.

We loved this house! Great views of the bay and wildlife-otters and seals everyday plus birds and whales! The house was so clean and very quiet-the best sleep of our vacation! Jane was extremely helpful and flexible. Their home is an 8 minute walk to restaurants or the aquarium. Neighborhood is very quiet and parking is easy! We’d definitely stay again!

Really great location in easy walking distance of Monterrey Aquarium and many excellent restaurants. Magnificent view right out the front windows.

a short visit to Monterey

Terrific! We have visited Monterey several times over the past few years as our daughter is at school in the bay area. This is the best place we stayed. It is a very comfortable layout with two nice bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom. Nice kitchen, comfortable living area. But the best thing is location. The patio area looks right out at Monterey Bay and the fire pit there was warm and made it so inviting to sit out in the evenings and listen tot he sounds of the bay. The indoor fireplace was also great. A super nice place to stay for a small family or two couples. We'll stay again!
