It's been over three weeks and I have not received the refund of my security deposit of $1,500.

We are so sorry that the deposit was not released sooner. We did send the deposit today, but unfortunately, it was one day later than it should have been returned. We have notified our Accounting Team about changing the policy to release the deposits at 18 days (currently it is no later than 21 days after departure), in order to ensure that it is done on time moving forward. Thank you for your patience.
SWEET THURSDAY HAS THE VIEW

We booked for January 2024 and were so impressed with the condo we booked for February as well. The condo is stocked with everything you would possibly need for an extended. The only downside for me is the very soft mattress in the primary and secondary bedrooms. My preference is for a more firm mattress. Secured underground parking stall 9 worked for our GMC Acadia nicely.

Sweet Thursday exceeded our expectations, and we have already reserved it for next year. The views are dramatic and beautiful from every window. The unit itself is luxurious, comfortable, and spotless.

We rented Sweet Thursday for the month of November. It was amazing. There's no other way to describe it. The space was comfortable and roomy. The views of the bay were so incredible that we almost never ate dinner out. We cooked or ordered food in and sat at the dining room table taking it all in. I'm up early and watched the sunrise every morning. I could go on and on, but you get the idea. We will be back.
Also, Sanctuary Rentals was great to work with. They were very responsive and professional. 5 Stars!

GUEST STAYED IN JULY ~ REVIEWED ON VRBO
★★★★★ 5 of 5
My husband and I vacationed at Sweet Thursday for the months of July, August and, September. We had a fantastic time. The apartment is centrally located in Pacific Grove making it extremely convenient to everything. The apartment was super clean, new, sparkling and bright. Sanctuary Vacation Rentals was a pleasure every single time and truly enjoyed their promptness and kindness all throughout. The cleaning crew was wonderful. Sincerely enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.

Magnificent 5 star spacious, bright accommodation
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We have traveled the world and never found a place quite like this. Located in the heart of the northern California coast, Pacific Grove still feels like a small town. It’s a quick drive to Carmel, Monterrey and Big Sur, but we didn’t want to leave our neighborhood! We walked everywhere: to cafes, shops, bakery, restaurants, grocery stores and, of course, along the bay. There were so many restaurants to choose from, though take-out was a favorite because the views from unit 402 were unsurpassed and the gourmet kitchen made meal prep easy.
Every room in this spacious, bright space has breathtaking views from every angle. The windows open and two balconies facing the bay offer ever changing views of a coastline teaming with wildlife by day and the twinkling magical lights of Monterrey by night with the moon shimmering over the crashing waves.
The walk to the beach is on a historic path where we passed Steinbeck’s home. The Holman building where Unit 402 is located was originally a department store where Steinbeck frequented to buy writing supplies. Our peaceful walk to the beach was only interrupted by fawns crossing our path, but cars were thankfully rare.
We cannot wait to return.

Sweet Escape
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
Sweet Thursday is a truly stunning and unique property. Situated in the historic Holman building and beautifully remodeled, it’s evident great thought and care was put into every detail. We enjoyed the chef’s kitchen, balconies with water views, and succulent garden. Pacific Grove is a charming village with cute shops and good restaurants. We walked to Lover’s Point beach nearly every day. The best part is the phenomenal view of Monterey Bay; whether it was watching the sun come up, the fog roll in, or the marine life — it’s a truly meditative escape from the hustle of daily life and exactly the getaway we needed. We hope to return someday!
