It was an absolute pleasure spending time in this Pacific Grove gem. The location could not be better: allowing one to enjoy strolling, biking, kayaking, farm-marketing, swimming, grocery shopping, dining - all within easy walking distance. Although situated on a main road, the living area (open concept living, dining, kitchen) of the unit is upstairs, making it possible for you to look out at the ocean and, even at the people enjoying the lovely little park across the way, with uninterrupted views and minimal traffic noise. And, during our stay, the commercial fishing boats were fascinating to watch during the day and beautifully lit at night. We also managed to spot whales and dolphins, not to mention the ubiquitous otters. Quite a treat.
This 2 bdrm, 2 bath apt is fully appointed. There is literally nothing you will need other than personal belongings. Just about every kitchen gadget and small appliance, as well as full (more than enough) table and glass ware, pots, pans ... . In the kitchen you will also find spices, oils, vinegars, sugar, etc, as owner encourages renters to leave these items for those coming later. Huge help. Bathrooms have hair dryers, shampoos, and so much more. Plenty of beach towels and a few beach chairs. Jigsaw puzzle and games too, as well as coloring books and pencils, crossword book, lots of paperbacks, blue-ray discs..... To top it all, the owner is very pleasant and easy to work with: despite not living nearby, she is quickly - and graciously - responsive to any of your needs.
Our stay in this apartment was over 2 months in the midst of the complications and difficulties of Covid-19. With so much uncertainty going on around us, the unit provided us with a haven of peace, an oasis of tranquility.
Thank you, Anna.
