The house is very nice and is in an excellent location with easy walking access to the Monterey coastal trail and the dining and shops in Pacific Grove. And within a 20 min walk of the Monterey Aquarium on trails. I would highly recommend it. The main level of the house has been updated and the bedrooms, bathrooms and family room are very comfortable. The residents on the upper level were very quiet. Unfortunately, there were storms with high winds the first 2 nights of our stay that resulted in no wifi for a few hours and then no power on Xmas Day that would not be restored for 36 hours. So, rather than a relaxing Xmas Day, we spent time finding alternate accommodations, finding a gas station with power and coffee, packing everything up, and hoping for an early check in at our new hotel and then unpacking and getting a warm shower. None of this was the accommodation's fault, as a lot of PG and Carmel lost electricity. But, our 3 night stay in Monterey/PG was a lot more expensive and disruptive than planned. I would still highly recommend this lodging, especially if there are no storms or high winds in the forecast.
