Recent Monterey Bay vacation rental reviews

A very clean, comfortable, well-decorated and appointed rental, with excellent communication from the property managers. The hot tub at night under an almost full moon was amazing. The outdoor furniture was unusually attractive and clean for a beach location. The faux fireplace feature was very stylish and we enjoyed meeting in the living room with it on. Towels were good quality, as were the kitchen utensils and appliances. The faucets in the bathrooms were very stylish, as well. Parking was easy. The beach is amazing - full of birds of all kinds - and the dune plants and flowers are beautiful. A special place.

Stay here with a group of 8 adults. Plenty of room for everyone. Very bright and spacious. Backyard was great for sitting outside in the evenings. 5 minutes walk to the beach. Highly recommend!

Nestled into the Pacific coastline, just south of San Francisco and Santa Cruz, Monterey Bay offers the longest coastline of any county in California.

With natural splendors and one-of-a-kind local attractions, it’s hard to go wrong with Monterey Bay vacation rentals.

From sandy beaches to Spanish missions, there’s no end of things to see.
