3965 Marine Gardens - Oceanfront with Bay Views
Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Marine Gardens"! This duplex sleeps up to 4 adults and 2 children.
Enjoy outstanding Monterey Bay views from your home-away-from-home and walk across the street to walk along the scenic recreation trail for miles in either direction. Located near Lover's Point Beach and walkable to downtown Pacific Grove attractions. The PG golf links are just a short drive away and there are many other golf options around the area from which to choose, including at golfer's 'mecca', Pebble Beach®.
The smells and sounds of the sea will lull you to sleep each night in this 1,122 sf beach house duplex unit. Clad in cedar shake siding, this true seafarer's home has so much character inside and out. It is filled with nautical elements, a rustic wood interior, and whimsical seafaring decorations. The quintessential "Old Salty" sea captain's house!
Climb 7 steps to the ocean view porch and take in the sights of the bay before entering into the living area with a wood burning fireplace and WiFi-enabled TV with streaming options (guests should bring the logins to their own streaming subscriptions).
The well-equipped kitchen is nicely set up to facilitate cooking meals to share together when you stay in, and when you want to go out, breakfast, lunch, brunch and dinner options are plenty in Pacific Grove or nearby coastal towns of Carmel-by-the-Sea, Carmel Valley and Monterey.
Bedrooms and Bathroom Bedroom #1 has a queen bed and a TV. Bedroom #2 has a queen bed and a TV. An additional sleeping option is in the living room where the sofa folds out into a queen bed which may sleep 1-2 children. The bathroom has a shower-over-tub combination.
A washer and dryer are on hand for guest use.
There's a garage available with space for one small car plus driveway parking in front of the garage for one more car. Un-timed street parking is generally available near the home on a first come, first served basis.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.
