The location to the beach was fantastic. Parking was a little difficult depending on the time of day, but not terrible. The house itself definitely could have been cleaner and is in need of updates, but Pacific Grove and Monterey Bay kept us outside for most of our time, so I recommend Monterey as a whole. If location is of importance, you couldn't ask for a better spot.
Kitchen was well equipped. There were convenient outlets. We were able to park within a block every night. Great walks in neighborhood and along shore. Bed was very comfortable, if a pinch high for a shorter person.

Thank you so much for bringing the dish clothes and potholders to our attention, we did bring by new ones just after your stay. We hope to have the pleasure of accommodating you again!
Adorable Victorian house in an absolutely fantastic location. Just a short stroll to both downtown PG and to the coastal walking trail. If you love the shops and restaurants of Pacific Grove, the location does not get any better!
The house is incredibly cozy and well-furnished. We appreciated the extra blankets, coffee pot, and kitchen dishes. The house is a short walk from Pacific Grove’s shops and from Lover’s Point, making it a great home base for a visit!

Great Location
This house is in the perfect location. It is walking distance from the beach in one direction and walking distance from restaurants and shopping in the other direction. The neighbors are friendly and helpful. The beds are a little tired and may need replaced.
Lovely old lady! Comfortable and functional. Location !!!! Pacific Grove runs a free shuttle to Pebble Beach for the tournament! Please add grill utensils.
We really enjoyed the house. The neighbors were really friendly and helpful. Parking was a bit of a challenge but not anything major. The location was central to some of the best restaurants. We are looking forward to a stay next year.

Great stay
Lovely stay at Sweet Pea - a splendid bungalow with a great view of the bay over Lover’s Point. We had a great time here. Management was very responsive to questions as well.
Perfectly situated and comfortable cottage. Loved the walkability to everything - Lovers Point, downtown PG, even the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Really enjoyed our stay.
Sweet Pea was perfect for our needs. We could walk to the bay and to town. Our son was golfing at Pebble Beach, which was just a short drive away. The beds were comfortable. The house was clean and we lived sitting in the sun on the porch in the late afternoon. It was a great stay.
Property was in a great location, nice little porch in front along with patio in back. Easy check in and out, parking can be tricky but usually can find one around the block and walk over. Would stay here again when we come back!
This was the perfect location. Just walking distance to the beach and wonderful restaurants. The neighborhood was lovely and quiet.Would definitely stay again. Fireplace was bonus. Parking was a bit of a bother at times.
My two girlfriends and I had a great stay at Sweet Pea. We loved the neighborhood and that the house is within walking distance to the beach and dining. The house had everything we needed and was exactly as described/depicted.
Property was very clean. Beds were very comfortable and close to everything. Nice property!

Great Location
We loved the location of this home because we were close to the harbor in one direction and close to lots of great restaurants and shops in the other direction. If you are traveling by car be aware that there is only street parking available.
