About this property
A Spectacular View of the Bay! ⚜️⛱️⚓️✨ 6 mins to the beach! Great for big groups
Large 5-bedroom home with a beautiful view of the Monterey Bay.
Large living room - great for conversations and games—overlooks the bay with beautiful sunsets, dining room, and galley kitchen (*light use*—let us know if you plan to do a lot of cooking). Seating area in backyard and on front porch. Front staircase is excellent for group photos!
Please note: There is a long-term tenant who lives in an attached apartment (with a separate entrance).
Each room is listed separately; you can find them on my profile.
Please enter correct number of guests for accurate price.
Bedrooms:
- Butterfly Suite (up to 5 people - king size bed, double sofa, foldout single bed)
- Beach Room (up to 4 people - queen size bed, single sofa bed and a foldout single bed)
- Captain's Room (up to 3 people - queen bed and single sofa bed)
- Honey Room (up to 3 people- queen size bed and single sofa bed)
- Tintin's Study (up to 2 people - double sofa bed) - if you don't need this as a bedroom, it can be kept as a sofa and add to the living space as it has a sliding door which opens onto the living room.
We also have a couple of crib-size mattresses that can be placed on the floor for young children.
Please park your car directly in front of the house on the main street and enter the house through the FRONT door (not the side door by the garage). You will need to come through the garden gate and up the front stairs. We ask guests to remove their shoes in our house - there is a shoe closet near the front door.
The side entrance from the driveway is handicap accessible - arrangements can be made to use this entrance.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or would like recommendations on local attractions, restaurants and shops.
High up on the hill in Seaside, CA, our house is located in a peaceful neighborhood, with an amazing view. We are VERY close to Laguna Seca and the Monterey County Fairgrounds and just outside the main touristic area, a short distance from the attractions of Monterey, Carmel, & Pacific Grove. We are one of the last small cities on the way South to Big Sur. It is worth noting that the weather here is moderate all year long. It is not the "Sunny California" that you hear about; there is normally a bit of a chill. Our beaches are not the best for sunbathing and only the intrepid enter the water. Just around the corner from our home is a playground for kids. Seaside itself is not much of an attraction, but it has a number of nice restaurants and tends to be more reasonably priced than neighboring cities.
We are next to a bus stop with frequent service to the Fairgrounds, Downtown Monterey, Fisherman's Wharf, and the Aquarium (Jazz B - every 30 min), and just a short walk away from bus service to Carmel-by-the-Sea (bus 94 - every 2 hours) and shops (Jazz A - every 30 min). Unfortunately public transportation in general is not great in this area. It's possible to walk down the hill to some shops and restaurants, but much easier if you have a car. With a car, there is easy access to Carmel, Monterey, Pacific Grove, and Salinas.
• We are just down the street from the fire station—which means that we're all set if we have an emergency—but we also have the pleasure of knowing every time anyone else does.
• We are on a quiet main street next to a school. The street doesn't have much traffic, but the sound carries when someone drives by fast or playing thumping music. We do not get much noise from the school at all. During school drop-off and pick-up times, it can be hard to find parking - otherwise there is plenty of room on the street in front of the house.
• You might run into our family outside or hear our children playing in the backyard. We respect out guests' right to privacy, but we may be using some of the outdoor areas during your stay.
• The front door is up a set of stairs, but the side door has a ramp and is handicap-accessible!
