Weekend Family getaway

Rental and location was great. We wanted to do s’mores but the fire pit wasn’t working. Oven didn’t have a large space if you wanted to cook but was fine for us in just using it for breakfast.

What a Wonderful Spot
by Burbank, CA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We loved our stay at this Pebble Beach property. The location was perfect and the views out the back deck over the golf course were STUNNING. Every night at sunset we would sit sipping our wine watching the deer (including two huge bucks), wild turkeys and bunnies stroll by. It was incredible. What a wonderful spot. I will be back.

Del Monte Forest

We stayed for a full week at Adobe by the Sea, a home in the Del Monte forest Pebble Beach area. The home is on the MPGC golf course and basically on the 17 mile drive. The area is magical. While you are able to walk to beautiful areas you will drive everywhere. The home is dog friendly and we loved that! The backyard is fine (it's the golf course) but having an enclosed area would be nice. The home is comfortable and we really liked it. There are just a few minor things that we feel need to be changed. The property company is great at working with you and we appreciated them. I'd definitely come back and would love to stay longer. You really need to spend some time in the area to 'figure' out all the different things you can do.

Visited the area with my husband and our pup. This rental was just what we needed! The location was great. We enjoyed walking through the neighborhood and checking out 17-mile drive. A quick drive to Monterey and Carmel. Would stay again!

Perfect Location & Wonderful Communication
by Virginia Beach VA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
Overall, we had a wonderful experience. The home was in a perfect location with great views of the MPCC golf course. There were plenty of provided amenities including starter sets of laundry detergent, coffee, paper towels, and trash bags. We especially like the hot water supply and the furnace efficiency. The original stove worked great and there was plenty of room for our family of three. The only downside was a lack of a dishwasher, but we knew that ahead of time, so we were prepared. The back patio was wonderful with the BBQ grill and gas firepit to enjoy. Sanctuary was wonderful to work with. The power went out during our stay due to the historic wind/rain storm and Sanctuary brought us a package of battery operated candles, which was a huge game changer for our last night. Thank you!! The staff was very easy to work with, was very responsive to texts and phone calls, and called several times to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay at Adobe by the Sea again!!

Nice stay

Overall, good stay. Very cute, clean place with two bedrooms. Only weird setup was that there is only one shower between the 2 baths. But, easy checkin and checkout, convenient location to Monterrey, Pebble Beach, Carmel and Big Sur locations. Sits on the golf course (?Monterrey Peninsula) if you are around to enjoy the porch. Everything worked and we were not in need of anything extra.

Golfers Paradise

Great location with great view to fairway (Monterey Peninsula) inside Pebble Community. Very quiet place. House itself is nice and cosy, we liked it and slept like babies.
But it’s a little bit sloppy, especially outside (terrace, garden, plants, cushions, grill, outside fireplace.... ). We would recommend an improvement by Sanctuary and definitely a parasol at terrace.

Cozy Stay in Pebble Beach
by Los Angeles CA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
My family and I spent four days at the Adobe by the Sea and would recommend this house for two couples or a small family. We had a great time walking through the neighborhood all the way down to Spanish Bay (only a 12 minute walk) and watching the golf from our patio. The home is cozy and well-equipped for short stays. The outdoor patio furniture could use a good cleaning but otherwise home was in good shape. We especially appreciated the bottle of wine and cheese left as a welcome for us! We traveled with our one year old son and the layout of the house was great for him to have his own room while we could enjoy dinner after he went to bed. Sanctuary was responsive throughout our stay and left lots of information behind for us.

Perfect location for a family getaway
by Susanville CA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
We absolutely loved the quiet neighborhood surrounded by the golf course. We had an issue checking in at the gate but once I called they immediately resolved the issue and the reservations manager even gave $80 reimbursement for the inconvenience. The home was decorated beautifully and very clean. The kitchen was a tad small-no extra storage to put food but we made it work. The oven is a little tricky-you have to light the stove top and oven with a lighter but once we figured it out it worked just fine.
We really enjoyed the back patio! Beautiful views and very peaceful. We were also within 10-15 mins driving distance to everywhere we wanted to go; aquarium, Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf, downtown, Carmel Beach.
We would definitely consider staying here again! Thank you!

Sanctuary Rentals Really Goes Above and Beyond
by Vista, CA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We rented this house for a long weekend to celebrate my dad’s 70th birthday and we were all impressed at how well-appointed the house was. Most vacation rentals provide the bare minimum in kitchen utensils, towels, disposables (TP, trash bags etc) but Sanctuary Rentals really goes above and beyond to make this house just like home. The kitchen is beyond fully stocked; you could prepare any kind of meal or even bake cakes in this place without bringing any equipment from home. The beds are comfy, and although the house is small, there is plenty of room for a family to sit and hang out in the living and dining rooms, and the outside area is huge. My dad is an avid golfer and really enjoyed the view out onto the fairway at MPCC. My only complaint is that although it is a dog-friendly property the yard isn’t fenced in. Not a huge deal but it would have been nice to not have to leash the pup for potty breaks. It’s a small detail and I would gladly rent this house again the next time I’m in Monterey.

Lovely, well-appointed home on the golf course with nice views. House has lots of light, comfortable beds and furniture, and on a quiet street though close to all the area attractions. We'd love to stay again next time we're in the area.

Amazing location at a great rate
by Davis CA

We LOVED staying in Pebble Beach, right on a golf course. We had deer and quail visitors in the neighborhood which my child was really excited about. Such a beautiful location with east access to Carmel-by-the-Sea, Pacific Grove and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, right off of 17 Mile Drive, and hiking/outdoor activities (we went to Point Lobos). Not cheap but a great price for the location, and although we ended up going out to eat for all of our meals (so many great restaurants in the area!), the kitchen and dining area were nice. (We did enjoy wine and cheese/snacks out on the patio though which was lovely). The only downside was that the bedroom with the en-suite (which has the shower/tub) has the smaller bed. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location with golfcourse view. Carpet and rugs needed cleaning. No dish washer was a headache. Only one full bath, which had no mirror over sink was inconvenient. Probably a litte expensive for what you get. Management company was very helpful.
