About this house rental

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Oceanview Serenity"! Sleeps up to 4 guests including children.

This charming cottage has a stunning 180-degree view of the Monterey Bay and offers the best of all worlds in Pacific Grove — close to the beach, but also an easy walk to downtown Pacific Grove, historic Cannery Row and other attractions.

The 930-square-foot pet-friendly home (maximum two small dogs no more than 15lbs each) is directly across the street from the beach and the Monterey Recreational Trail, and is just a few steps from spectacular Lover’s Point. The restaurants, galleries and shops of downtown Pacific Grove are just a 5-minute walk away, and there is also easy access to Asilomar, 17-Mile Drive, and the highly rated Pacific Grove Golf Links. It’s also a short walk to Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, or 10 minutes by car to downtown Monterey, 10 minutes to shopping in Carmel-by-the-Sea, and 15 minutes to golf and fine dining in Pebble Beach®.

The 2-bedroom, 2-bath home built in 1934 has been recently painted and redecorated to enhance its vintage charm. A brick pathway leads to the front door, past the Adirondack chairs that are a perfect spot to sip morning coffee and drink in views of the bay at any hour of the day.

Inside the home, a cozy living room and dining room feature large picture windows, taking advantage of the spectacular view, and guests will be able to see boats, birds, and even whales out on the water.

Beach-themed décor in soothing shades of blue, sand and driftwood brings the outdoors inside, harmonizing with the rustic living room that features a vaulted wood ceiling, 65" Ultra HDTV with a connected sound bar and blue ray DVD and a gas burning fireplace. Upholstered chairs and a comfortable sofa provide a place for conversation, reading or playing games, or just sitting and enjoying the bay vistas.

Hardwood floors and board-and-batten walls can be found throughout the home, as well as vintage lighting.

The sunny kitchen is also a pleasant reminder of past eras but enhanced with new appliances, including a gas cook top, wall oven, and dishwasher. The adjacent dining room table that seats six is also next to a large picture window. Well-equipped for extended stays!

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Bedroom #1 features a queen bed and a large closet.
Bedroom #2 contains two twin beds, as well as an en suite bathroom with a shower.
A second bathroom with combination tub/shower is accessed from the hallway.

Guests can also enjoy the large fenced backyard, where a gas grill and patio seating are perfect for al fresco dining. The outdoor space is sunny and protected, with views of the bay visible through the home’s picture windows.

At the rear of the house, a one-car garage offers space for parking a vehicle and for stowing beach gear. Additional parking is available on the street.

Well-behaved dogs under 15 lbs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.

Please note:
The Homeowners of this cute vintage home are planning a full remodel and addition starting sometime in mid-2026. Starting as early as April 2026 there may be some orange markers placed on the property showing the new/future height of the home. These markers will not obstruct your ocean view in any way and until construction begins, the home can be rented.

This home is a monthly rental and we request that all nights of your stay are within the same calendar month. Some exceptions may be possible, with the approval of our team and the homeowner. Extended stays are often possible.

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!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying at this sweet cottage next to the ocean. Seeing all the wildlife in the ocean was amazing as well as walking/jogging along the ocean path daily. A 3 minute walk to Lovers Point Beach for a quick cool dip early morning was especially welcomed and beautiful. The lemon tree in the back yard was another very happy and unexpected surprise. Loaded with ripe lemons! So beautiful and bountiful! It was close to restaurants and grocery stores, parking in front of our house was never a problem, even on Labor Day.We could not have been happier in our month long stay next to the waters edge. Would book again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was very charming and functional. You can not beat the view of the Monterey Bay. The weather was in the 60's , which was 40-50 degrees cooler than our home in Az.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2020
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house has a spectacular view. I could have stayed another month and spent my days staring out at the ocean. But it was extremely expensive for a rental in the condition it is in. Despite assurances on the Serenity website that the house has been thoroughly cleaned to Covid protection standards, the floor was so dirty it turned a mop (which I asked management to buy for me) black with each swipe; the towels were stained and old; the sheets were worn; the umbrella in the back yard was broken; there was so much dust under the beds, on a hardwood floor, that when I turned a fan on one night the room became a dust bowl; the dishes and silverware all had to pulled from the cupboards and washed (stained coffee cups, food on silverwear and a few plates, dirty pots); there were cigarette butts in the backyard; the sofa had stains; the walls were filthy; the toilet requires two visits from a plummer... You get the picture. For $7K, I spent more time cleaning and maintaining than enjoying. The management company did credit the cleaning fees, and offered to send cleaners in again (which we weren’t comfortable with mid-pandemic), but nobody called me, ever, to discuss my concerns. But oh, that view. And the house, has it been clean and kept up, was adorable.
