Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Pelican Peaks"! Sleeps 4 adults
With beautiful ocean views and the beach just steps from the front door, this Pacific Grove home is truly a bay lover’s dream come true.
The 1,039 sf, 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage is a few minutes’ walk from the Monterey Bay Recreation Trail and Andy Jacobson Park, and is within easy walking distance of the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row as well as a variety of restaurants on Pacific Grove’s Central Avenue. Downtown Pacific Grove is just a 5-minute car ride away, and 15 minutes to either charming Carmel-by-the-Sea or golfing and dining in Pebble Beach®.
The flower-covered home, originally built in 1925, has been enlarged and updated to create light-filled rooms that mix colorful vintage and contemporary furnishings. Hardwood bamboo floors throughout the main level unify the open floor plan that includes a kitchen, living room and dining area.
Original artwork, large windows and skylights give a bright, casual ambiance to the home, where a cozy living rooms offers comfortable leather furniture, a gas fireplace with tile surround, and a 48-inch HDTV, the perfect place for the family to hang out, talk, or play games.
The pet-friendly home also features an outdoor patio surrounded by a vine-covered wooden fence for privacy, with outdoor seating and a gourmet gas grill to make afternoon barbecues a snap. Geraniums, bougainvillea and lavender can be found in the outdoor spaces.
The kitchen features granite countertops, a double oven, gas stovetop, custom tile backsplash, and double sink. Counter seating is available for two as well as vintage diner-style table with six seats, which is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the patio.

The carpeted room features a private balcony with seating for two, built-in bookcases filled with books on local history and nature, as well as a king bed, HDTV, large closets, and original artwork. A deep jetted tub with custom tile and a hand-painted sink can be found in the en suite bath. The tub has a hand-held shower wand great for rinsing but is not a completely enclosed shower unit.
Bedroom #2, located on the lower level, features a queen bed, a comfortable recliner and a peek of the bay. The adjacent bathroom includes a pedestal sink and a glass shower.

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

Reviewer Comments:
Quaint adorable house close to everything you need for a vacation. So many bakeries and lunch spots to chose from and a short walk down to the trail along the ocean. Spacious rooms and nicely stocked kitchen. Sweet surprise upon arrival of some drink along with local herb spread and crackers.

Thank you for your lovely review! We look forward to your next visit!
Great location and beautiful home. My only suggestion would be that the master bed is terribly uncomfortable; likely time for an upgrade.

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.

Thank you for your lovely review! We look forward to your next visit!
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!
