3743 Pelican Peaks ~ Near Aquarium, Beach & Town

Things were as expected. The kitchen is very well equipped. The views from the house are awesome! There's only street parking though.

It was well located. Close to many restaurants and the aquarium.

Yes, cheese and crackers and a bottle of wine awaited us after a long drive, which was very much appreciated.

Great location and beautiful home. My only suggestion would be that the master bed is terribly uncomfortable; likely time for an upgrade.

In general, the place was very cute and a convenient location for walking along the water and a short walk to either downtown Pacific Grove or the aquarium. My wife and I stayed here with my parents and the house was set up well for making dinner and socializing around the dinner table. However, when walking into the house for the first time, there was a strong odor of animal urine and identified multiple large dried areas in both bedrooms that smelled. It’s possible either the previous tenant or the cleaning crew tried to clean the spots but the strong smell was still present when we arrived. We called the rental company, and after an hour or so, the maintenance team member came and cleaned the rugs. With the strong smell of cleaner and opened windows, the urine smell seemed to be gone, but over time as the cleaner smell dissipated a more subtle urine smell persisted close to the spots, but was not as noticeable throughout the rooms and house as before. Ultimately, we liked the house and stay in Pacific Grove, but it was a bit disappointing that this smell was so strong when we arrived and we felt it should have been taken care of better beforehand.

Perfect location and very cozy home.

This is our second home of Sanctuary Vacation Rentals that we have stayed at and we’re just as happy as we ca be with the property. It’s a couple doors down from the ocean, clean, well-stocked and adorable.

Definitely recommend staying at Pelican Peaks!

This was one of the best vacation rental properties we've ever stayed in. Very suitable for families - included a pack n play for our little guy. Kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked, and the location cannot be beat. The yard and home were well taken care of. The welcome spread was very inviting and set the tone for a wonderful stay!

We rent houses a lot. This one stood out for being particularly clean, having good quality cooking supplies and having comfortable seating area for 4 around the TV. The property manager (Sanctuary Vacations) was excellent. They were very doting and responsive. The house is surrounded by an uncountable number of beautiful flowering trees, shrubs, flowers and plants. These looked wonderful and we often found ourselves admiring them all. The house is a short walk to the sea and to several good, neighborhood restaurants. We'd definitely want to return to this house in the future.

Great little place, just a few steps from the ocean. Highly recommend. Also might have had the best communication from the PM ever.

Convenient to lots of places.

The management staff friendly and responsive. Such a beautiful location close to the coastline recreation trail. Highly recommend!

Clean, comfortable, very well-equipped home in a fantastic location in Pacific Grove. Easy walking distance to ocean front trails and tide pools, aquarium, shops, restaurants, etc. The well equipped kitchen has everything you need for preparing your own vacation feasts and the beds are very comfortable for a good night’s sleep after a day of exploring all that the Monterey Peninsula has to offer. Fluffy towels and nice bath amenities. Comfortable family room with big TV when you’re ready for some down time. This home has a pretty small outdoor area for sitting or gatherings. So know that it’s not great for outdoor meals, but the dining area that opens to the outside is comfortable for four people. We won’t hesitate to return when we need our next coastal fix.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pelican Peaks was fantastic! The location was ideal for us for many reasons: walking along the trail on ocean side, taking in the all the ocean life and scenery, winding around to lovers point and the cafe/restaurant, continuing on down the trail, simply magical. The house was very clean and very comfortable, 5 star all around.

Loved everything about this place. Had a wonderful vacation in a beautiful home. Hope to come back someday. Highly recommend.

My family stayed at this property for 3 nights. We loved the location - it is close to the Aquarium, Cannery row and the scenic trail is right at the end of the street. The property was clean, fairly bright and had a very usable kitchen (which we needed to help make food for our 1 yr old baby). We also really appreciated that they had a pack n play that we could use. The upstairs bedroom is spacious and bright. Sanctuary rentals was very clear with providing instructions (before we reached) and also good with providing support (the dishwasher needed minor repair). We really enjoyed our stay here!
