Not as expected

Communication with the owner was excellent. Unfortunately, the home needs a lot of updating, especially the electrical outlets. The home was clean on the surface, but could use a deep cleaning. Some appliaces are broken and need repair or replacement. Both bathrooms are outdated and worn. The outside needs ground maintenance. The hot tub was nice and clean. The kitchen dining table was very nice and we spent a lot of our time there.

Top shelf! Can't wait to return.

I have stayed at many Vrbo homes over the years. My stay at your fantastic home in Seaside ranks at the top of the list in comparison. Your beautiful home was very inviting from the minute I walked in. The beds are extremely comfortable, the abundance of kitchen and bath accessories fulfills every need, the artistically pleasing decor is a delight to the visual senses, and the wireless light switches provide a surprising and brilliant convenience. I am leaving totally refreshed knowing that I have a refuge to return to whenever I need one. I give the whole experience 10 stars. Thank you.

Cute house convenient to tourist attractions

GPS took us directly to the property. Nice having laundry on the property after hiking for 6 days. Kitchen is large enough for multiple people to work; dishwasher has to be rolled in and connected to sink, which we had never done, so we hand washed everything. Lots of hot water for 9 ppl to shower back to back. Beds are comfortable- especially adding the memory foam topper to the sleeper sofa. Kids loved the hot tub. Plethora of seating options for lounging. Bedrooms are a little cramped so multiple pieces of luggage are difficult to arrange. Overall we were happy staying in this cottage while visiting Monterey.

Great Sunsets

The property is as described. The 2nd bed in the 2 bedrooms was a plus. We only used one of them. We had nine people and there was space for everyone. We appreciated having the washer and dryer and the little extras in the cupboards(spices, cooking spray, etc.)that we didn’t think of bringing with us. Communication with Susan was A+. She was willing to answer all my questions before and during our stay. Very quick response from her. The sunsets from the front porch were spectacular. Convenient location, short drive to all we wanted to do and see in the area.

PROS Great location Property owner was quick to respond Plenty of beds Lots of towels CONS A few of the beds were very high off the ground. Very hard for my mother in law to climb onto. House is very cluttered. Would not recommend for people who have small children. Water pressure is low in the showers. Overall house needs to be updated.

Amazing Place To Stay

The host is amazing and very accommodating! Staying in Susan's home was such a pleasure. My husband, daughter, grandson, and I had a wonderful time visiting. Our grandson stationed at Presidio was granted a leave to stay with us for the long Labor Day weekend. I placed an order at the grocery store with all his favorite foods, and we picked him up for breakfast Friday and picked up order at Safeway on way to Susan's place. There were more than enough dishes, pans, silverware, etc. You will lack for nothing. The grill worked great for the steaks, and the hot tub was clean and clear. There are more than enough towels and the furniture is comfortable. This home is roomy and the views are lovely. I cannot express enough what a delight it was to stay here. Thank you so much Susan.

Nice owner, but disappointing stay

The owner, Susan is very pleasant and responsive. However, I would not stay at this property again. I’ve rented a lot of houses and this was the worse. I’ll leave the remainder of my comments completely objective, so others can make a decision and decide whether to rent. - The master bedroom smelled like animal urine. - The listing sites the property has satellite/cable TV, but it doesn’t. It only gets local TV channels. - Was unable to use the outside grill bc the grates were extremely dirty. The one with propane had mold on the grates. - The house was not clean. Hair in the dishwasher and counters, old food under the bed. - Ants in the bedrooms and bathrooms. We got ants in our luggage as a result. - The hot tub water was green. Was told this was bc it was recently serviced (shocked) but didn’t seem right to us for it to still be green, so couldn’t use it. Based on the price I paid I was expecting a better experience.

Perfect arrangement for families, 6 adults plus two grandchildren

An economical option compared to houses closer to the beach. Nonetheless access to Monterey State Beach, excellent, is straight down the hill. Many other attractions at an easy driving distance, but not just a walk across the road behind the house, as might be inferred from the advertisement. The house is easy to find, with a big illuminated street number, and there is room to park 3 cars, 2 in the driveway and one on street. The garden in front is well cared for and the house is clean. We grandparents took one room, and our grown children with their spouses and our grandchildren took the other two rooms. The kitchen is large and had all the accessories, like coffee grinder/maker, corkscrew, etc. etc. and a nice big refrigerator. The dining room table was very nice, high with stools, easily seats 8. We also enjoyed the outside table that caught the morning sun, outside by the hot tub, and we did enjoy the hot tub in the evening. The front deck chairs have a great view out over the bay and the city. A couple of gripes, the kitchen cabinets were built for someone 7 feet tall. My wife couldn't reach anything! There were only 4 spoons in the cutlery drawer, but an oversupply of forks and knives. The dishwasher was out of order, no problem to wash by hand. Nothing major. You will be amused by the eclectic arrangement of furnishings and artifacts!

The property and views were great. Lot's of space.

There was some issues that should be addressed. We noticed the electrical in the house needs updating. Could not use my curling iron or blow dryer in the 1st bed/bath, had to get ready in the bedroom. Sometimes the light switch next to the refrigerator would work, sometimes not. The bed was too soft in the first bedroom and were slanted downward with our heads. The 3rd bed was really springy, could use some new mattresses.

About the host

Hosted by susan elaine

Host profile image
I'm a nurse and a creative artist. I write music and play the harp for weddings, events, & in the hospital. Some orchestra too. I love hosting people in my homes because life is so precious & short. R&R with friends & family is the most rejuvenating. I always say: Change of lattitude, creates a change of attitude. I believe that home sharing is something we can do to help others feel safer from covid - away from more public places- yet still enjoying being somewhere new. I have a fur baby, Precious who travels with me.

Why they chose this property

I love how sunny this area is. When others are socked into the fog ...my house is at the top of the hill looking out over it. Flowers do well here. I love the sounds of the birds and ocean. The sunsets are amazing, so amazing that honestly...i prefer the sunset over the bay view. The back bedroom has a comfy king bed with a large sliding door to bring in sunlight and enjoy the back patio. The L shaped patio is wind protected and yet there is also an upper garden with a seating corner that has a view of the bay. This is why the property was named Many Ocean views. The house sits next to many trails with bay views.

What makes this property unique

Lots of privacy and sun. The front deck is so enjoyable in the afternoon. The neighbors are all truly nice people. That is rare these days. We all look out after each other. The Kitchen is nearly 400 sq feet with tile and granite plus a gas fireplace. The hot tub is just outside the kitchen sliding glass door. Our new hot tub with mini waterfall is in a private area of our multi leveled back yard.
