centrally located, spacious, comfortable.

The apartment was easy to find, had ample off-street parking a wonderful view of the water, downtown and the butterfly parade. There was plenty of room to relax in and the furnishings were comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely apartment

Besides being in a central location, the apartment is clean and everything is new. The owner has really done a nice job with the space. We were concerned about the adjacent movie theater, but it was not a problem. We walked to restaurants, shopping, aquarium, and the coastline walking trail. Really a lovely place. Owner was prompt with responses. Would recommend this property to anyone.

Visiting our son.

This property was clean and right on the busiest street in town. We could walk everywhere. It was not well stocked. There were no wash cloths or soap in the bathrooms. We had to search for towels. The bedrooms did not have closets. It would not work well for an extended stay. The bedding needed to be updated and they need new pillows. Pacific Grove's movie theater shared a wall to the apartment and consequently was noisy. I would not recommend this for older visitors as the living space is on the second floor. We stayed two nights which was long enough.

Good location--beware the landlady

The apartment is in a great location and very clean. There lacked an attention to detail. We didn't have enough clean towels for the 5 of us and the towels provided were new with the tags still on so fibers shed everywhere. One of the queen beds had the wrong size sheet on it. Clean linens magically materialized on the 4th day of a 7 night stay. While we were there the landlady wanted the cable company to have access to the apartment and for the awnings to be washed so she had 2 separate requests from us for access to the unit and to remember to close windows. When we didn't leave a key behind (not specifically asked but requested that one key be left in the box at all times) she called and berated me on the phone as if I were a child because her cleaning lady couldn't get in. I was willing to overlook the little things up to that point but her rudeness was uncalled for. Afterwards she requested that I leave a 5-star review on this site. Renter beware!

Great Location! But the apartment could use some TLC

My girlfriend and I visited the apartment this past weekend for our 1-year anniversary and had a lovely time. If I could give this apartment 3.5 stars then I would, but here are my thoughts on the apartment: POSITIVES: 1. Location, Location, Location! - smack dab on the main road in Downtown Pacific Grove. You can walk to cafes and restaurants, walk to the ocean, and uber just about everywhere else in the Monterey area, including the Aquarium and Cannery Row. Very convenient. Parking was fairly easy as well. 2. Price - The Monterey area in general is SUPER expensive. This apartment, for what it is, is overpriced. However, when you compare it to other 2-bedrooms in the area (and I did a TON of research on this before booking), and with it's proximity to the ocean, it's in the top 15% of most inexpensive 2-bedrooms in the area. So I can't fault the owners for pricing according to the market they're in. NEGATIVES: 1. Not Fresh? - When you book a rental, there is an expectation of a "crispness/freshness" that you desire so you don't think about all of the people before you who have rented the place. You want a clean smell and everything to FEEL clean. It was not the case with this apartment. My girlfriend and I continuously had stuffy noses and allergy issues within the apartment. As soon as we stepped outside and breathed in the ocean air, the stuffiness went away, so it was definitely something in the home. Previous pets maybe? It just didn't have that crispness to it. The instructions for checking-out require that you take out the trash and load & run the dishwasher which also led me to believe that this apartment is rarely if ever professionally cleaned. 2. Needs Updating/More TLC - There were many small details lacking that with a little more TLC could have easily boosted this to a 4-star review. There were no garbage bags in the apartment. The towels were very old, mismatched, and falling apart. The handsoap was empty and we had to refill it ourselves. There was hair on the bathroom floor. The sheets of the bed were so old that they were pilling. Leftover ice cream in the freezer. No Keurig coffee machine (but there was an old coffee-pot machine). So all-in-all we would say it was a positive stay but we will probably stay elsewhere next time. NOTE: Also it is attached to the movie theater and you can hear the sounds coming into the home. It didn't bother us, but if you're sensitive to sound it's something to consider.

Location, location, location

We really enjoyed our stay at the apartment on Lighthouse. We were in Pacific Grove for a friend's birthday weekend and the location of the apartment was perfect because we could walk everywhere. The unit was very clean and had plenty of room for the three of us. The movie theater next door was no issue for us but traffic early in the morning on the main street woke us up early. It would be good if room darkening shades or curtains were provided. I definitely recommend staying here.

Loved the house! Great town and great location!

We really enjoyed the house and the host was great. She had everything setup there were no hassles or concerns. Overall I would highly recommend staying at this house. It’s located in the heart of PG and minutes from the water. We are looking forward to returning.

Excellent stay

Very good apartment, stylish, with great design, very spacious and comfortable! Central location, close to everything one can dream of, with ocean view. Home-like stay, cosy, and warm. Adjacent cinema didn't disturb us. We will love to come again! Thank you, Sally!

Great location and close in, but too noisy and hard to sleep

The apartment couldn't be in a better location in Pacific Grove in that it's steps away from restaurants and shopping. However, the theater noise was ridiculous. We heard every gun shot and car crash during an action movie (which ran several times a day) and it sounded like a teenager had his TV cranked in an adjacent bedroom. This typically went from the afternoon until about 10pm. Adding to that, all rooms are right on the busiest street so we heard garbage trucks and other vehicles early in the morning. There are streetlights right outside the bedroom windows which lit up the bedrooms at night so the combination of light and lots of vehicle and theater noise made it impossible to sleep. I'll skip over the little things like crappy old towels the fact that previous guests left food in the fridge and a couple light bulbs were burned out. So, a very mixed review here in that it was a cute place but I wouldn't recommend it if you want to sleep. To the owner - please add blackout drapes to the bedrooms and buy a set of Costco towels.

Great location

We absolutely loved our stay here. The location was perfect with beach being only a 5 min walk. House was a little musty on arrival but after opening windows it was fine. Towels were a little old and funky but other than that we loved it.

Great location. Very nice apartment. Shares walls with movie theatre and dolby digital sound.

We loved our stay in Pacific Grove. Beautiful area and very nice accommodations. Nice layout though kitchen IS upstairs. Unit shares walls with movie theatre and we got a kick out of "hulk &thor" as part of our stay. They didn't stay late and were afternoon arrivals, so it wasn't a negative for us. Bus stop outside windows with hourly departures, fyi. Unit is in a great neighborhood with shops, restaurants and beautiful beach area. Property manager and staff were very responsive and easy to work with. We'd definitely stay here again.

Perfect place to stay especially when visiting the Monterey Aquarium

This B&B is located within walking distance of the Aquarium (20 minutes), lots of second hand shopping stores, restaurants and a walk way along Monterey Bay. We would stay here again.

Charming with character and a great location

Something different. This in not your standard chocolate box apartment, but a delightfully renovated apartment on handy bus routes in the heart of Pacific Grove with its zillions of restaurants within walking distance. And if you want to take in a movie, walk next door in your slippers. My wife and I have spent 6 weeks here while waiting to move into a permanent apartment in Salinas, after moving here from overseas. As regards the noise from the movie theater next door - think of it is as a slightly noisy neighbor that is only there between 11am and 10.30pm. You only hear it during loud scenes, but not when you are wanting to sleep, and not enough to disrupt your activities, and you very quickly become immune to it. If it available when you want to be in Monterey, just book it before someone else does.

An amazing New Year 2017

Couldn't have been better. Everything about the house was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with an excellent location of everything. Room was very comfortable and clean. My family of four, especially my wife, were very pleased with our stay. We hope to be back for a longer visit in the future.

Great stay by the Bay!

Our family of four spent three nights at this apartment in Pacific Grove after Christmas 2016. We had a wonderful time. It was actually the second time I've stayed there and I enjoyed it very much. We loved how close it was to excellent food and entertainment. Aliotti's Victorian Square next door has excellent food (breakfast, lunch and dinner!) and wonderful service. The apartment itself is very clean and well maintained. We enjoyed relaxing and watching TV and making our meals at times in the nice kitchen. As long as you don't mind loud noises coming from the movie theater next door, your stay should be very pleasant. It just so happened that Star Wars was playing during our time there, so every two hours during the climactic scenes, you could feel the booming bass and explosive sound effects pretty clearly. It didn't bother us, though. I did have to call Sally once about the circuit breaker. Running the fireplace heater in the master bedroom and the microwave at the same time causes the circuit to blow. It happened to us three times in three days. Again, a minor complaint but one that should guests should be aware of. But there is plenty of space to relax and read and it's very quiet all day long to take a nap or get a good night's sleep. We are already planning our next trip to Pacific Grove! Thank you for the wonderful accommodations!

It was a wonderful experience. The apartment is right in downtown Pacific Grove. Close to everything

We were there for a month, September 16 to October 15. The apartment is right in downtown Pacific Grove. Next-door to several restaurants, close to a grocery store, a short bike ride to Monterey, a beautiful bike ride to Pebble Beach. It is in the same building as the theater, this might be offputting to some, however we didn't mind. It was nice to walk 15 steps and go to a movie. We had a wonderful month Pacific Grove.

Amazing! Perfect!

This place was amazing from the place itself, to the directions of how to check in/check out, recommendations of local food, and location to everything in town. Right in the heart of town, close to Carmel and Monterey, the the home was amazing. Super cozy and fun to hang at. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back!

Historic PG

It was so cool to stay inside this historical landmark of the lighthouse cinema! Locals and visitors alike adore this charming old theater and so you feel like you get to be a part this area's iconic, quaint past. I love the artwork of sepia movie stars! Close to the ocean & all the shops & restaurants. Really central location - hardly used the car, could walk everywhere. Great deal for Monterey!
