Sweet Pea - Pacific Grove House - Walk to Beach and Town

Experience the vintage charm of Pacific Grove in this two-bedroom/two bath seaside cottage built in 1890. This historic home is close to Jewell Park, a short stroll from Lover’s Point Beach—and just a few blocks from the shops and restaurants lining Lighthouse Avenue.  You’ll feel warm and welcome with a gas fireplace, a cheerful, country-style kitchen, and a small patio with a barbeque. Period touches abound, from the brass Queen bed downstairs to the white clawfoot tub on the upper level. There is a full bath with a tub/shower on the ground floor, and a second full bath upstairs along with two twin beds and an office nook. Street parking only. Pacific Grove Transient Use License #410.

Great location, clean, but needs tlc
Sweet Pea is a perfect little house for 2+ . We truly enjoyed our stay, especially the close proximity to the beach. Bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms are clean. The window sills could use some cleaning and the kitchen table is beyond sticky, it could probably use a new coat of sealant. The back garden area doesn’t reflect the pictures and the fireplace doesn’t work. For the price we paid, we expected a bit more.

Perfect family stay
We are a family of four, with a 6yo and an infant. This house was perfect for our needs. It was really cozy and peaceful. We appreciated having a full bathroom on each floor. The location was perfect, and we didn’t drive all weekend except the 5 minutes to get to the aquarium. The beach, cafes, restaurants, and a great market are all 2-4 blocks away. The house is outdated, which I was worried about from the listing, but it wasn’t really an issue because the house was so clean and well maintained.

Summer Fun in Cool Monterey
I took 2 of my granddaughters to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium. This cute little house has lots of personality and quirks and we loved it. So much better than a hotel room. My younger grand fell in love with her "fluffy soft" bed and they enjoyed having the privacy of the entire 2nd floor. So did I. I had to remember how to parallel park. I think it's been 30 years since I had to do that. Staff very helpful too.

Adorable Victorian Excellent Location
The house is an adorable tiny Victorian. The location is amazing. You can walk everywhere. The only thing I would recommend is more blankets. A throw on the sofa would be nice. However, we were fine without them or we would have asked for them.

Loved Sweet Pea!
Such a lovely charming place! Loved the lavender in the front garden. Full washer and dryer at back of house was very convenient. Made use of well equipped kitchen. Location is great making for easy walking to restaurants, Lover's Point and the Monterey walkway. Highly recommend.

An okay stay
Overall the property is clean and fairly cute. It is old and has not been updated so floors are slanty, windows are weathered with peeling paint and layout is SO ODD with the bathroom door right next to the stove in the kitchen. And it’s tiny. I actually nicknamed it “The Mouse House.” But the price was reasonable for the area. We did love that there were 2 full bathrooms though. I felt we needed more towels (6 bath towels for 4 people for 4 days) as we don’t want to spend time doing laundry. Upstairs remote batteries were dead, and the grill had no propane. We had a planned pre-race dinner with 7 people and that was a real irritant as I even mentioned it days before we arrived. Never got a reply back from property manager about it. There wasn’t a single platter for serving a meal. Not enough kitchen utensils (big spoons, forks, a cheese grater, serving bowls). These are the basics. Overall, a reasonably priced place in a great location but lacking in the details.

Clean, quaint, convenient, and comfortable
We drove to Sweet Pea, parked right in front of the house, and walked everywhere (including the Aquarium). The accommodations were spotless, we had everything we needed to prepare meals, and we slept soundly. During some windy periods the screens rattled a wee bit, but those were the only interruptions to our serenity. We would definitely return.

not so sweet pea
the house needs a lot of work, the front door has a gap between the door and the door jamb, the door bangs when its windy and cold air blows in. The heater didn't start twice and the fireplace frequently sidn't start. the heater is at the bottom of the stairs so the heat goes upstairs. The kitchen table is sticky and wiping it doesn'ytfix the problem. The dishwasher door is so tight I couldn'tt close it. the windows have cracked paint and the window sills outside are filthy. In short it was not what I expected for what I paid
