Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Monterey Bay

I stayed a few days in Nalin's charming home while visiting relatives in San Jose. The home had everything I needed, and was comfortable & cheerful. I especially liked the coffee table in the front room that converts to a desk. I had a big data collection project to work on while I was there, and the space was great for spreading out and getting the work done. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. I was especially delighted by the little lights accenting the front yard at night. The house is a short drive from shopping & restaurants. Beds were really comfy. Lots of thoughtful details. I would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay! The location can't be beat. Walkable neighborhood, easy access to local restaurants and activities. Santa Cruz and Mott Beach Cottage was a wonderful place to vacation for us!

Beshoy’s place was great. It was spacious, clean, and in a good neighborhood. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location for us while visiting family in the area and attending my Grandma’s 95th birthday celebration all while still feeling like we were on a remote vacation for my own little family. We definitely plan to return!! Thank you Carli and Team!!

Liz's place was exactly as described and a lovely stay. We enjoyed walking to the beach. Appreciate all the shelving and storage space. Liz was extremely helpful and kind the airbnb was beautiful and definitely worth the money.

Holly's place is beautiful, inside and out. It's a great location in Carmel. We'd love to come back

Very peaceful and great place to stay

Thank you again for a great week!

A wonderfully peaceful place to stay.

The location of the apartment is awesome. We really enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and excellent view of the beach and ocean. Sleeping with the sound of the ocean waves was such a gift. Patti is lovely and kind with her communications. We did have some issues with the shower and bath sink in one of the bathrooms. We also wished we had paid attention to what was not listed in terms of provisions. For example, you’d have to bring your own coffee, teas, paper towels, and bathroom hand soaps (although napkins and bath soap bars were provided). Overall, a beautiful home at a great location with potentials for some minor improvements which I understand Patti will address in good spirit.

Everything was great! The unit had everything you could possibly need for a trip (stocked bathroom, stocked kitchen, tons of extra towels and blankets). The neighborhood was also very quiet, which was great because we're light sleepers. I would definitely recommend this spot and would stay again.

This was the most peaceful and beautiful space I have ever been to. The view from the balcony was gorgeous. All the greenery and the deers and random dog was super gorgeous and felt really at home. The hot tub was amazing and super relaxing. Robert was very kind and responsive, Received a phone call about all the lights, hot tub, close trails, and recommended spots!! Super helpful and very kind gesture. Would 100% go back to this place

Amazing stay at Lisa's cottage! We had a great weekend away here and enjoyed the beautiful property and all the birds and wildlife. Really appreciated the thoughtful touches from Lisa as well. Highly recommend this Airbnb!

We LOVED our stay! This home was such a great find. It’s beautiful, unique, and scenic. The property offered a lot that it’d be a tragedy not to spend most if not all of your time there. We enjoyed it so much we canceled outings. We had with us four teenagers and a pre school age little one. They loved venturing out, enjoyed the jacuzzi and pool time, and s’more making at the fire pit. We wished we had more time to BBQ and enjoy the gorgeous views of the valley. The separate unit above the garage with two bedrooms was perfect for the girls to enjoy their privacy. All of the beds were comfortable, & it had plenty of bathroom & pool towels. Everything was decorated beautifully & was well stocked. The living room had a comfy couch & the kitchen, although on the small side, was perfect for quick home cooked meals. This was a beautiful property, easy to disconnect from reality & a comfy home! It’s worth the drive up/down the windy road, so if you get car sick, just come prepared!

Our stay was absolutely perfect! The space was warm, welcoming, and beautifully decorated with thoughtful details throughout. It was spotless, cozy, and even came with some great snacks—which was such a nice touch. Maria was incredibly kind and responsive, making everything seamless from start to finish. We would 100% stay here again next time we’re in town!

Co-host's Kateryna and Vlad's place was superb !!! Lovely elegant place beyond my wife and my expectations, all the way around. And the landscape and architecture place were stunning!!!! Lovely folks. Thanks again. Jaime and Cheryl

Our family had a wonderful stay here! Plenty of space for the 5 of us, and perfectly located. Just a block away from the coastal path, and easily walkable to restaurants in both Pacific Grove and Monterey. The bedroom with the twin beds is definitely cozy, but it was perfect for my younger two children. The other 2 bedrooms are nicely sized, as are the bathrooms. The neighborhood felt very safe, and it was so nice to have off street parking in the driveway! The house is very well maintained and nicely stocked - we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

The house is very cosy, welcoming, and clean. The host is very kind, and responsive. She responds to messages within minutes and is very flexible. We felt welcomed and supported. The kitchen is extremely well-equipped. I highly recommend this place for itself, and for the quality of communication with the host.

This is a very comfortable and stylish house, with 2 bedrooms and 2 outdoor sitting areas. It is a short stroll to the beach where there are several restaurants and a coffee shop. We had a wonderful weekend getaway and would love another chance to stay there.

Nice studio. It was clean and met our needs.

What a great guest suite close to the ocean and several beaches. The neighborhood was very quiet. The suite was very spacious! It had a large bathroom, living area, and the little kitchen area was well thought out and stocked with several gadgets. Jane was a fantastic host and a delight to speak with. She made everything easy, accessible, and left a wonderful packet with what to do, restaurants, house instructions and more! The Parks pass was a fabulous perk. We would stay there again!

Such a great home! Loved sitting on the front porch waiting for the rest of our party to arrive, garden and swing song chairs was perfect way to start our trip The house is super cute inside with beautiful skylights and a very private backyard. There was a welcome tennis ball for our dog as well as a water bowl, just so much detail in making us feel right at home. I would stay here again

We really enjoyed our stay at Susanne’s place. The surroundings were beautiful and it’s in a quiet location. It was around a 30 minute walk into the centre of Carmel from the property- the local beaches are stunning! Susanne’s property is just like the pictures and we had everything we needed.

My husband and I stayed at Tom's cabin for 1 night while driving from Santa Barbara to SF. The location really stands out - the cabin is tucked away in the trees just a 10 minute walk from Carmel town / 15 minute walk from Carmel beach, in a beautiful old neighborhood with lots of character. Helpfully, there is a guest parking spot as well. The cabin itself was old school in its feel but spic and span, with snacks and coffee provided - we loved the little balcony, though the weather was too cold to use it! While a bit pricey, the cabin is priced comparably to the converted motels in town and we liked the secluded setting better. It's Carmel so you have to spend a lot to get something that feels fancy, which we didn't need!
