Pacific Grove, California
The Ocean View Retreat has fantastic ocean views. It is only a few steps away from the ocean and golf course. Watch and hear the crashing waves as you sit back and relax. Looking out the front window or sitting on the front porch you may see dolphins, sea otters, seals, grey whales, killer whales, pelicans, sea gulls and even deer. Our profusion of wildlife, trees and wildflowers are a few of our many treasures.
The sunset and sunrise views are spectacular against the ocean waves. Across the street are sandy beaches and tide pool areas; a great place to watch the sailboats go by and breath in the clean, fresh ocean air.

My family enjoyed ourselves and our stay. Great location and the view cannot be beat. Would stay here again and hope to make it a regular trip.
The owner and property manager were great to work with. We had a great family gathering.
We once again had the pleasure of living for a month in Evelyn’s beautiful home for a second time. Believe me when I say, it doesn’t get old. The bedrooms, kitchen, living room, 1.5 baths are all clean and very comfortable. When entertaining out of town guests for a week, the home provided plenty of privacy and space. The backyard is beautiful and had several lunches sitting in the sun at the large teak table But it is the front of her home and the magnificent views of Monterey Bay that make the stay memorable. Thank you Evelyn once again for your hospitality. We will be back.
Great rental, thank you for the great experience!
We spent 7 weeks at the property during winter 2022. The location was so amazing that we extended our original contract for an additional 3 weeks. The bed was comfortable. We used the front bedroom and the ambient light from the neighbors was noticeable but neither my wife nor I were troubled by it. The heat was adequate and reliable - we live in Vermont and are accustomed to being warm indoors and we were in Pacific Grove. I would be negligent if I didn't note a couple small problems. A drawer or two under the counter were damaged and the kitchen faucet is really in need of repair or replacement it is impossible to easily adjust the handle for a warm temperature (either very hot or cold). Otherwise, the kitchen is well equipped. Were neither of these repaired we would rent this place again in a heartbeat... and we tried. Evelyn was helpful with questions we posed and when we lost a key her local contact had a replacement for us the next day. Terrific response. Finally, did I mention location? The coastal walking path passes in front of the house and you can walk well into the beginning of the 17 mile drive shoreline. Had you the ambition, I imagine you could manage an 8 or 10 mile walk if you started near the Aquarium in Monterey, out and back. The sea, surge and swell, and smashing waves and weather, and Whimbrels and Oyster Catchers, every bit, entrancing beauty. Remember.
Convenient location for beach and golf. Good communication with owner and manager for any issues during stay.
Wrong Code in lock box at check in. Wrong internet code. Several calls/hours to figuring out the issue. No garage door opener. BBQ did not work. Oven dirty. No Landline. Cell reception poor. Half bath sink valve leaked on floor. (Fixed it). Half bath toilet does not flush properly, and Handle broken. Master bed is BAD! Gas Fireplace puts out Zero Heat. Waste of gas. Great Views!
This perfectly located beautiful blue house sits right across Ocean View Blvd. where you awake each morning to the crashing sounds of waves and beauty that cannot be described. Our stay here was very enjoyable and easy to “move in” to and get settled for our month’s stay. Evelyn’s home provides plenty of room, great kitchen with all the amenities, fireplace that we used in the evening, comfortable furniture and bedding and a beautiful backyard that almost has a park like setting feel. The house is very well cared for and clean. The massive front windows in the living room allow you to watch the very active, ever changing Monterey Bay; with walkers, runners, bikers, surfers, divers…with an added bonus of otters and seals floating and playing in the surf. You literally walk across the street and start your adventures everyday by walking to Asilomar Beach to the west or to Cannery Row to the east. Downtown Pacific Grove offers you many choices for eating and shopping. Hop in your car and tour the scenic 17-mile drive through Pebble Beach, drive down Highway 1 to Big Sur. The activities are endless and easy to navigate…and close! Thank you, Evelyn, for your hospitality and allowing us to experience a little piece of heaven.
The property owner (Evelyn) was a genuinely nice person. She was extremely helpful and accommodating. The property was clean and contained everything a family might need for vacation. The washer and dryer were a big plus. The view from the large front windows was the highlight of our stay. The views of the Monterey Bay are breathtaking. A+++
We stayed for a month at this wonderful property visiting family in the area and also playing some golf. Perfect tranquil location and a lovely home!
