About this house rental

Nestled in Carmel by the Sea, this lovely house for $306 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Live, Love, Bark"! This home sleeps up to 4 guests. Please contact our team directly to inquire about last-minute availability! This 1,109-square-foot, newly remodeled 1930’s era property is the epitome of cozy comfort for both human and canine guests. With 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the well thought out floor plan offers room to relax, restore and plan your adventures. A Carmel Stone path and steps that lead to the front door provide an old-world welcome. A low fence separates the nicely landscaped front yard from the quiet street. Tucked behind the main house is a small cottage where the nicest neighbor lives full time. There are separate driveways, parking areas, entrances and yard spaces for each home. Living Space Gorgeous wood floors grace the living room, dining room and bedrooms. The pitched, beamed ceiling with skylight lends a sense of spaciousness and brightness to the living room. A roomy sectional sofa faces a gas fireplace with Carmel Stone surround and a 55” TV mounted above the mantel. Kitchen and Dining The living room flows seamlessly into the dining room that’s appointed with a wood table and 6 chairs. It’s conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen. Tile flooring and open wood cabinetry add charm. The kitchen is equipped with everything you’ll need including a 4-burner gas stove, Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, a coffee maker and other small appliances and plenty of counter space. Bedrooms and Bathrooms Bedroom #1 has a queen bed, dresser, 43” TV and an en suite bathroom with shower and Saltillo-tile flooring. Just off the bedroom, is an open room that includes the closet, a washer and dryer and a door that leads to the backyard. Bedroom #2 includes a queen bed, night stand, closet and 43” TV. The hall bathroom has a tiled floor and standing shower. A door from the kitchen opens to the backyard oasis. The stone patio includes a gas grill and table and chairs, set next to a stone fireplace—perfect for alfresco cooking and dining. The fenced-in yard features a small patch of artificial turf well-suited suited for a four-legged guest. A large hot tub sits temptingly on another stone patio with a large umbrella for the sunniest days. Our sweet neighbor uses the hot tub rarely but on occasion. They are very discreet and courteous. It’s a short drive or walk to town along the quiet streets. Stroll down Ocean Avenue to the sandy stretch of beach, one of the only area beaches where dogs can frolic off-leash. Explore the streets of the village where you’ll find wine tasting, gourmet grocers and delis, world-class restaurants, shops and art galleries. A short drive takes you to The Crossroads, The Barnyard and Carmel Rancho shopping centers. You’re not far from an entrance to the golf mecca of Pebble Beach, and its world-famous 17-Mile Drive. Plan a day trip or two to explore Carmel Valley, Big Sur, Pacific Grove and Monterey and discover the unique aspects of the Monterey Peninsula. Driveway parking for 2-3 cars and on-street parking in front of the home is generally available. Well-behaved small dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum. This home is a monthly rental and we request that all nights of your stay are within the same calendar month. Some exceptions may be possible, with the approval of our team and the homeowner. Please note that this cottage is the main house and that in the back corner of the property is a small guest cottage that is rented to a full time tenant who has two canine companions. Each cottage has its own driveway, parking, entrance and laundry facilities. This vacation home is professionally managed by Sanctuary Vacation Rentals.

Floors are uneven. You can’t tell but suddenly tripped in the master bedroom several times. My husband fell so hard his gold bracelet went flying and cost $248.00 to be fixed. He actually fell twice another time was going into the kitchen some Windows’s open some don’t. One bedroom has no closet or dresser. The the other bedroom is attached to the laundry room and it has a closet in the laundry room. They have a cardboard box two feet high with three narrow drawers the laundry room also has a unuseable 50 year wash tub first work no headboards. Mattress almost on the floor. Dining room floor slants down then several pieces of wood. One of our dinner guests tripped. Another area to trip is in the kitchen going outside. The only furniture in the living room is Asoka and one end table. The coffee table sits outside of the L shaped soda it is too big. Can’t be used. Everything is very cheap

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: An adorable house made our stay perfect for my family. The rooms were a bit compact for our longterm stay, and unfortunately, we encountered some ant problems in the bedrooms. The company promptly sent pest control to address the issue, but regrettably, it wasn't fully resolved. Despite the occasional ant bites, my family had a delightful time overall.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I wish I never had to leave. I loved my stay! My favorite part of every day was opening the front bay windows. The flowers outside the house were beautiful. The tree in the front yard and the height of the house gives a nice feeling of seclusion. The neighbor in the guest house is so sweet and kind. Downtown Carmel is a short walk. The couch is so comfortable! I spent many evenings on it with the gas fireplace on. Also the big shower was amazing. I absolutely loved my stay and strongly recommend it. Also, I could go on and on about how fabulous the Sanctuary Rental employees are. They honestly provided some of the best customer service I have ever experienced in my life. Yes, they truly were that friendly, kind, and responsive.

We reviewed this property via the management company. We were pleased with nearly every aspect of our stay, with the sole exception of the hot tub, which was not useable. The owners were thoughtful about what guests might need, though another dresser and a living room chair would be helpful additions. But the neighborhood is lovely, making dog walking especially enjoyable. The yard is a great spot for the dog and has nice human amenities, like the fireplace and a new bbq. Overall, we recommend the home.
