Steps To Carmel Beach, in the golden rectangle. The perfect location!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (274)
"A perfect cottage for my family, including my dog. The cottage feels larger on the inside than it looks on the outside. It contained everything that we needed for a great stay. Only a short walk to beach and a longer walk to downtown. I will certainly consider reserving the cottage again in the future."

Vacation Rental Home ~ 1 Mi to Carmel Beach!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (14)
"Cypress Cottage was the best pet friendly property we have stayed at. Our little dog loved sunbathing on the deck and our 9 month old got his best sleep to date in the pack n play set up in the guest room. The property was not booked the night before our trip so the host reached out and let us know we could check in a couple of hours early which was huge with a baby who naps in the afternoon. Thank you for the best experience!"

"My favorite VRBO. Spotless, warm and cozy. Hillary has supplied everything including spices, aluminum foil and robes no less! The cottage and the gardens are something out of a Hans Christian fairy tale. Hillary is incredibly responsive and clearly takes great care of the cottage with love. Pure perfection."

"Lovely cottage super close to everything. Hosts were very nice and we enjoyed the family dog, too! :) Very clean, modern, easy. It was perfect for our short vacation doing the Nike Tennis Camp (three friends). We all had privacy but a nice common area to hang out when we wanted to."

Charming 2 BDR Seaside Cottage Perfect for Couples – Only 5 Minutes to the Beach
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1)
"Well appointed cottage in Seaside, less than a mile from beautiful urban walking trails & ocean/beach access. Easy drive to Monterey as well. Found tons of delicious local eateries too. Had some trouble accessing property upon arrival, perhaps because we were 30 minutes early or because our welcome email had the incorrect code. Instructions were a little unclear, you have to use the back door. Property management company answered promptly and we got an updated code very quickly. Minor feedback...

Cozy get-away in Pacific Grove (Pet Friendly!)
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (2)
"We couldn't have been happier with our stay in Pacific Grove. Vivian is a great host, very accommodating and quick to answer any questions. The house was perfect for our needs. It has a well stocked kitchen, an area I could work remotely from, beautifully landscaped yard, and its in a great neighborhood just a few minutes drive to the beach. In addition to this, it was great being able to bring our dog with us for our stay. Would recommend this home for anyone looking to get away."

Forest Cottage in Big Sur

"To be honest, the pictures provided of the cottage dont do it enough justice. Palo Colorado Rd is initially intimidating but as long as you turn your lights on, take it slow and be cautious of other vehicles its a wonderful road to drive through. The cottage is plesantly private and has everything you would want/need. Both trails are well taken care of, felt very safe and at the end of each trail is a place to relax on chairs or a hammock. Palo Colorado Canyon is absolutely stunning and you...
