Great central location to explore everything Monterey has to offer.

Guita was an exceptional host. Beautiful view of the sunrise from the master bedroom that I enjoyed every morning with a cup of coffee. The house is a good central location with easy access to explore Monterey, Pacific Grove, and Carmel. The street can be a bit loud at times but the front yard was wonderful for my 2 dogs. Overall, being new to the area, I could not have asked for a more wonderful host who did everything to ensure I had whatever I needed for a wonderful stay. Thank you Guita!

Two Month Rental for Relocating Family

Our family--two adults, one child--stayed at Guita's rental for two months. The house was equipped with everything we needed and had an added bonus of being located in a terrific neighborhood. We walked everywhere and found terrific enjoyment in that. The yard is also fenced and safe for dogs. We found Guita to be helpful and responsive and easy to communicate with. Other reviewers noted that the back unit was noisy when rented out. While there were other renters there during our stay, we personally did not have any trouble with noise. Overall, it was a good experience for our family.

Beautiful Monterey

We had a wonderful time in Monterey. The rental was everything we expected and more. The home is beautifully redecorated and well stocked. It is centrally located, walking distance to Cannery Row and a quick 15 min drive to Carmel and the stunning 17 mile drive in Pebble Beach. The garden is colorful with beautiful vines comprising the yellow squash patch. The only issues were the noise from the people at the property in the back as their patio backs up to both bedroom windows. Also, the house is at a stop sign on David, which was a little noisy as it’s a busy street. The windows have double panes so it’s not too noticeable inside. This said we would still consider staying there again as it’s a beautiful property.

About the host

Hosted by Guita

Over the years, I have been fortunate to have rubbed elbows with some of the most talented people in the Hospitality and Real Estate professions. Little did I know these mentors would prepare me for my Vacation Rental venture this year.

I've also discovered my inner gift for interior decorating. Casa Amarilla has been a labor-of-love restoring and modernizing this quaint Monterey Cottage...a stone throw from the Aquarium.

My green thumb came back to life as well. The patio and fenced garden area has blossomed this spring, and soothes one's sole at the end of an active day. A wood burning pot belly fire-pit and charcoal BBQ enhance this spacious artistic zen-like garden, while taking in the distant Monterey Bay view...our guests favorite!

While staying at Casa Amarilla, don't hesitate to call or text me if you and your group need anything at all!

Sincerely,
Guita

Why they chose this property

Guest Review Comment; “My colleague and I stayed at Guita's Casa Amarilla while attending a conference in Monterey and found the house to be lovely, clean, tidy, spacious (for a two bedroom house) with lots of amenities, light and views. Guita was such a great host. She emailed to let us know she had confirmed our reservation. Responded promptly when we had questions, and was available for questions when we called. The house is amazingly quiet with a nice deck, and very close to all of the main attractions of Monterey. I will definitely stay there again”...Angus
