3976 Beach House on Asilomar~ Oceanfront View Home

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Beach House on Asilomar"! This home sleeps up to 6 guests.

You can't beat this oceanfront location with 180 degree ocean views. Situated just steps away from a beach side trail system and the large sandy beach of Asilomar State Park and adjacent Spanish Bay in Pebble Beach®. Enjoy amazing sunsets, ocean breezes and the dog friendly beach and trails just outside your front door.

While this classic beach cottage is a new addition to the Sanctuary Vacation Rentals program, this home has been open to guests for many years, previously hosted by the Homeowner who racked up scores of wonderful reviews from hundreds of guests who have greatly appreciated the stunning location and the rustic charm and good vibes of this home. It is a true vintage 'Beach House' where you can actually experience whale watching from the living room couch!

Living Space
The home is simple, sturdy and comfortable. As of 2019, the home was renovated with new baths, new paint, new tile floors, new carpet, window coverings, light fixtures etc. and has been lovingly maintained ever since.

Downstairs features an open floor plan with a large living room, dining room and kitchen all flowing from one to the other.
Large picture windows along the front of the home take advantage of wide open views to the beach.

The living room features a large wood burning fireplace, comfy couch and easy chairs, a game table, satellite TV and Stereo.

Kitchen
Kitchen is well-appointed with lots of cookware and gear. Adorable vintage cabinetry is painted in an aqua tone and is paired with modern stainless steel appliances including a large refrigerator and gas stove/oven. Dishes are done 'old school' as there is no dishwasher, but since the kitchen sink faces the ocean, the task of washing dishes is fairly painless!

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Upstairs there are three comfortable bedrooms, all with huge windows, comfy beds and flat screen satellite TV's. There is also an upper deck overlooking the dunes and the beach.
Bedroom #1 has a king bed.
Bedroom #2 has a queen bed.
Bedroom #3 has a queen bed.
The upstairs full bathroom has a shower-over-tub combination and is easily accessed from the hallway by all bedrooms.
The downstairs full bathroom has a standing shower.

Outside you will find a fire pit in the sand, perfect for just have a seat on one of the benches and gaze at the stars. The night sky is incredible as there is little nearby ambient light!

The famous recreation trail that stretches from Pebble Beach to Santa Cruz is just across the street and stretches in both directions. You can walk to Spanish Bay Resort (roughly a mile) for world class dining, or wander along the trails of the Asilomar State Park.

The charming town of Pacific Grove is home to delicious restaurants and cafes, galleries, boutique shops, a movie theater and all major conveniences. Don't miss touring historic Monterey, Fisherman's Wharf, Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, all within a 10-15 minute drive.

If you are a beach/ocean lover, this is your spot. One thing's for sure: spend your vacation here and you will come to know why so many folks love Beach House on Asilomar so much!

Well-behaved dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.

A laundry center is located in the garage.

The garage is not available for guest parking at this time but up to 6 vehicles can fit in the large driveway.

This vacation home is professionally managed by Sanctuary Vacation Rentals. With over 15 years of property management experience, Sanctuary strives to provide environments that nurture and inspire with all the comforts of home. Each home has beach towels, shower and bath amenities and spa-style robes. Our team is available 7 days a week to assist you. We look forward to hosting you!

There was plenty of space for our 3 generation family vacation. The house was comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. We enjoyed the ocean view, being able to walk across the street to the tidepools, and watching the sunset from the front yard. The firepit was perfect for family time after dinner.

We loved our stay! It was great for the kids ages 3 and 5. Such a cool beach house. Perfect location. The deer in the yard everyday was very special for the kids. The tide pools and beach right across the street were perfect. We are taking about going yearly! Thank you for sharing your beautiful beach house!

The home location is absolutely perfect! Right across from the street from the beach with easy beach access. Views of the ocean from so many windows and lovely friendly deer. The property is older (1960's) and it shows. With a little updating the house would be great! One of the more frustrating parts for us was the lack of ease in reaching the host. We had a very hard time. After several days we were in contact and they were extremely easy to work with and for that we were super grateful. The other thing we wish was that the kitchen was better stocked with some of the every day items. If you are planning on cooking please beware of a few things: There is no dishwasher, no garbage disposal and there are no items needed for cooking besides pots and pans. The basics like salt or pepper were empty. The can opener was so old it hardly worked so if you are planning on cooking, bring everything you need. It was one of the worst stocked homes we've stayed at. The BBQ was broken and no propane for an option of cooking. Now with the complaints being mentioned above the home's location would draw us back and I would just bring each item we might need.

Great place with amazing views!

This beach house is a really cool place. Right across street from lots of little beaches and many tide pools. Asilomar state beach is about a quarter of a mile down the road. There is an unobstructed view of the ocean from every room of the house. Very clean, with everything you need and more! I would come back to this place for sure. Awesome stay in Pacific Grove with the family!

We loved our time here at this lovely home in Pacific Grove! The house was clean and well maintained. There are ocean views from almost every room in the house. We have 3 teenage daughters and we had plenty of room to spread out. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area. We spent time in Big Sur and Monterey Bay.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Location is amazing, but that's about it.

The overall cleanliness of the place is subpar, in fact I'd say it's gross. There were cobwebs on fixtures and throughout the house; kitchen utensils, dishes & cookware were very old & had food particles on them (we had to rewash everything to even feel comfortable using it); very old pots and pans where the teflon is peeling off and would end up in your food; the air return for the heating system was covered with dust & dirt that we could easily wipe off with our fingers; exterior windows looked like they hadn't been cleaned in a while and we struggled to even see the amazing view (BTW, I sprayed them with the hose and found a mop in the garage to wipe them down. It took me 10 minutes & we could see through them clearly!) If only whoever "cleans" the place would take the time to do the same; One bedroom had something spilled and splattered on the wall that could've easily been wiped off; towel bar in the bathroom was coming out of the wall. I could go on and on. It's really too bad the people or person who owns this place is more concerned about making a buck off of the view versus having repeat renters. All of these issues wouldn't even be issues if they invested some time in keeping the place clean and a little money to keep it updated, including kitchen utensils, glassware & cookware! Get rid of all the old crap that is over flowing in all of the cabinets! I would never stay here again.

Location is amazing!

We have stayed here several times over the years. A few suggestions: Window shade broken by dining room table. Several windows no longer have screens including the corner bedroom upstairs. Downstairs bathroom window no longer opens. Windex to clean downstairs windows would be helpful when needed. Instructions to operate TV’s would be helpful. I didn’t know we couldn’t get sports.

Family wedding

We enjoyed our stay at the house while in town for my son's wedding. The location was perfect for wedding pictures on the beach as well as relaxing in between the busy activities while we stayed. We especially enjoyed all of the windows that looked out on the coast and the warm fireplace during morning coffee. The house was very comfortable, and we would be back if the need arose.

Perfect beach house

The location is on point! You have perfect ocean views from every room of the house.. and you on my cross one small street and you are on the beach! Not to mention there is a beautiful trail right in front as well. We had fun with the kids climbing rocks and playing in the sand. Inside had mostly what you need but lacked cooking basics like salt, cooking spray/oil, etc. So bring what you need for kitchen/cooking. They had plenty of plates & cups though. You may to hunt for extra blankets and clean them first as needed. Bathrooms had only soap & a bit of shampoo so bring what you may need. Other than those minor things the house is in the perfect location and we enjoyed it very much! We will be back!

The property location is incredible! Could not have asked for a better location and the view absolutely stunning. The home was cozy and inviting. We are already planning another trip and bringing friends so we can share this experience. I appreciated the clear communication and what not to do. Which was very minimal! Check in and check out super simple. I am thankful they allow people to share their family beach house. My husband and I could feel the good vibes/energy the minute we stepped foot in the house.
