Picturesque Seaside House
This cute gem of a house was perfect! From its beautiful architecture to details such as comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, bathroom sundries, and connectivity, it’s clear a lot of thought went into making this rental into a home away from home. Host was very responsive and kind. Highly recommended and look forward to finding another reason to book a stay!

Best Seaside Vacation Spot
You cannot go wrong with this Seaside location. It is close enough to everything but in a relaxing well cared for location. Biking, farmers market, restaurants, pinball, Monarch butterflies, etc. The owner is dedicated to the property and makes sure everything is taken care of. We come back time and time again.

Cozy little house near Monterey
Stayed for a few days. The property is located a few miles from almost anything you'd like to do in the area. The kitchen is especially appreciated on multi-day stays!

Lovely cottage close to everything!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cecelia’s Seaside Guest House! We were in town for the Monterey Jazz Festival and this place was less than 2 miles away! It is nestled in the back of another house, in a nice, quiet neighborhood! Cecelia responded promptly and kept us up to date on deck renovations taking place. The deck turned out great btw! We will be back for sure as we visit the area frequently.

Great Stay, Great Host!
We have been staying at this guest house for years and we are never disappointed. The location has great onsite parking and is centrally located for all of our favorite Monterey area activities: bicycling, farmers market, seeing the coast line, pinball and of course good food. The host is awesome and really cares about your stay. Instructions for staying at the guest house are clear and reasonable. She is easy to contact for questions about check-in and sometimes stops by to chat and see how things are going. We will be back again and again.

Perfect location and space
This was a great spot for our family. Tucked in a quiet residential area but close to all the places we wanted to visit. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed. The host was very communicative and helpful. Even checked to see if we wanted her to turn the lights on for us for our arrival. Would definitely book again.

Seaside Gem
We stay at this guest house at least yearly and it never disappoints. The host is very thoughtful and has made sure everything is available for your stay. The Keurig coffee machine even has a “shot” size that is perfect for a packet of instant oatmeal. The location is quiet with great onsite parking and is centrally located so it’s easy to get to any of the Monterey Bay area attractions. Seaside has grown and there are excellent restaurants and brewery in town.

This VRBO was hands down one of my favorites in Monterey with the affordability and comfortability! Cecelia was nice enough to offer extra amenities to go visit places around the area on discount. Would definitely stay here again!

Gem in Seaside
Cecelia is an outstanding host. The guest house was perfect for the two of us with everything in the kitchen, laundry, bathroom, bedroom, living room, dining area, and even a patio area were well stocked with supplies. We felt comfortable in a quiet neighborhood using offstreet parking as our vacation home base. 13 minutes to Laguna Seca, our weekend destination. Much Mahalo!

4 nights In Monterey
This was our last chapter on our California road trip, going to San Francisco, Lake Tahoe and camping in Yosemite. Cecelia’s guesthouse was so welcoming, it had everything we needed, parking, clean beds, lovely garden, great washer and dryer which we really needed after camping, and in the right position for everywhere. We loved the area, did a whale watch, ate clam chowder in sourdough which was to die for. We would easily recommend the guesthouse to anyone visiting Monterey.
