Perfect Group, Family or Couple Retreat
Submitted: March 21, 2013
Stayed: March 2013
Four families with young children stayed at this house in March and we had a fabulous time! The open floor plan makes for a bright and cozy central living space where we all gathered for meals and hang out time. The kids were able to run around the house and explore the expansive yard filled with pine trees, pine cones and other treasures. At night, the parents sat around the couch and played cards with the children within easy earshot.
This owner has thoughtfully provided four passes to the Monterey Bay Aquarium - which is great fun for both kids and adults! My daughter asks me, "When can we go to that house in Monterey
again?" She has formed memories that make her smile!
We not only enjoyed the house and the Aquarium, but took several walks down to the beach - about a 10 minute walk from the house - and to the nearby park. On one morning, I went for a long jog by the ocean - starting with passing through Asilomar to the beach. What a refreshing jog!
The owner is easy to contact, flexible, and friendly! Enjoy a magical time at this clean, spacious and bright house :O).

This home is perfect!
Submitted: March 8, 2013

This home has the perfect location to walk everywhere in P.G. We have stayed here every January for several years. It is perfect for families. We brought our new puppy with us. The fenced in yard was great for her. The house floor plan is a great setup when entertaining guests. The kitchen has everything you would need to prepare meals. Loved the Wolf gas stove. We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace. The owner is a pleasure to work with and is available for questions or any issues that may occur during your stay. We will continue to stay here when in the area. It is always clean and well maintained.

This house was perfect for our family which included 7 adults and 2 young children. The layout was great to gather as a family while offering places for quiet or privacy. The kitchen is well equipped and the information provided on the area was very helpful. We had an amazing time and spent our last night talking about returning next year!

Wonderful Place for Families
Submitted: October 8, 2012
Stayed: September 2012
I would highly recommend this place. It had everything we needed. The common area with such a large kitchen and living room was all open so one could watch kids while cooking very easily. The kids loved the yard - they explored and made pretend places. We barbequed one night and the kitchen was fully equipped. The rooms and beds were quite comfortable. The air hockey table was a big hit! There were maps and tourist brochures provided, plus passes to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was all perfect, a short drive to the aquarium. The area is very peaceful near Asilomar. It is a short walk to the beach. A very special place. We had 4 couples, each with a child, and we all slept comfortably. It is a spacious house. We had a wonderful time together. Will definitely return.

So Much Fun!

We all had so much fun! We loved the beach and walking the coastal trails. The aquarium was great – thanks for the passes. And what a wonderful retreat home - after the hustle and bustle of the city, your home provided a much needed oasis. Loved using the spacious cooking area to grill fresh fish from the pier!

We loved it here! The aqaurim was amazing! The Taste (across from Trader Joes) is a resterant you should recomend. Its really fun to have house dinners and deserts like Spaghetti Night and B-Day Cake Night. I beat quite a few people in air hockey. We went to the Pebble Beach Car Show and saw a lot of dogs and cars. We had a lot of fun playing on the rocks at Point Lobos. We loved it here!

A very special reunion
Submitted: April 9, 2010

A wonderful family reuion in this house in Pacici Grove! What made it even more amazing is this house had belonged to my grand parents in the 1940's until the late 1960's. And I didn't know it until I found out what street it was on, and my sister recognized the fireplace in the photo. Wow! We arrived with my parents,both in their late 80's(it had been my father's parents home)We spent a wonderful week there with my parents and my two sister's.The house looked much different but it was great. The sun was shining every morning. We ate our meals out on the nice back patio. It had all the amenities and more. A nice walk to Asilomar and Pico beach( our favorite as kids) The property was clean and inviting, relaxed and comfortable. It is a memory we will treasure always! We look forward to our next visit! Also, the owner was a delight! thank you thank you!

Fabulous House
Submitted: October 20, 2009
Stayed: April 2009
We had a wonderful weekend at the Asilomar Ocean Retreat. The house is cute, comfortable and clean with a charming light-filled kitchen/great room. Bedrooms are on two sides of the house, so the floorplan is perfect for two families. The cozy family room with TV and rhe game room made it ideal for kids, but it would also be a great place for a girls-weekend etc. The ocean is in walking distance and downtown is a quick drive. I highly recommend this house!

This was the perfect house for our family. I can't say enough the owner was easy to work with and the house was clean and roomy. Great location to activities, walks, beaches. The basketball net and aquarium tickets were a plus with everyone!

We spent nearly a week at this wonderful spot and we all agree that we're more at home here than the week we spent in LaJolla, the week in Laguna...

We spent nearly a week at this wonderful spot and we all agree that we're more at home here than the week we spent in LaJolla, the week in Laguna, and the week on Hawaii. The house is relaxed, convenient, thoroughly appointed, yet laid back and private. All the furniture is beachworthy, not frou-frou. Absolutely no worries. Our dog was welcomed here too, and that made our time a true family experience. Monterey and Carmel are places you'll want to spend a week every year. We used the aquarium passes three times! We'll be back. This owner is perhaps the most easygoing we've encountered. In all ways, all stars! Asilomar truly is a refuge.
