Recent Monterey Bay guest reviews

Everything was wonderful, beautifully furnished, stocked kitchen with new appliances and kitchen tools/pots and pans. The ocean waves were heard throughout the house morning and night. It was a fantastic stay, thank you!

Everything in this house was exactly as advertised! Five lovely bedrooms, super clean spaces/linens/backyard, hot tub, and well stocked kitchen. The wifi was especially fast and we were able to stream TV shows to the smart TV easily. Never ran out of hot water with 10 people! The spot is just 20 min drive from the Boardwalk, 10 from lots of restaurants/breweries, and 5 from multiple beaches. The only area for improvement is the mattress in the primary bedroom was a bit firm (and there was no topper). We will DEFINITELY come back!
