About this property

3703 La Gloria Cottage-by-the-Sea ~ Walk to the Beach and Downtown!

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "La Gloria Cottage-by-the-Sea"! Sleeps up to 6 guests.

The 1,500 square foot pet-friendly home, a winner of the Pacific Grove Heritage Design Award, has been extensively remodeled so that while it retains its gracious past, it also offers modern conveniences at its spectacular location. Just a 3 minute walk to award-winning Passionfish Restaurant and a 10 minute walk to the beach or to the butterfly groves, it’s also only 5 minutes by car to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row, 10 minutes to shopping in Carmel-by-the-Sea, and 15 minutes to golf and fine dining in Pebble Beach®.

A brick pathway leads visitors underneath a magnificent Monterey pine and up to the front porch which offers seating on a beautiful Butler plantation bench. The entry way opens into the cozy living room, a perfect place for conversation or watching TV on a 50-inch HDTV. Bluetooth set up allows your favorite music to be heard on the in-ceiling speakers throughout the house.

Casual with an upscale elegance and earth-tone colors, the décor is embellished with coastal touches, and the feeling is enhanced by comfortable red leather couches surrounding a gas fireplace, which has an additional hearth on the other side facing the kitchen. Hardwood floors can be found throughout the ground floor, which includes the living room, kitchen, and dining room.

The large kitchen includes newer appliances, a double kitchen sink with a pewter gooseneck faucet and a microwave. A central island offers an additional small sink and counter seating for two. White tile counter tops and whitewashed cabinetry add a contemporary rustic touch, and the adjacent dining room offers seating for six at a beautiful Geranium leg table with optional extension leaf. There is a whole house water filter and water softening system.

A private patio enclosed with a wood fence is accessible via French doors from the kitchen. Potted succulents grace the outdoor space, which offers seating as well as a gourmet gas grill, outdoor lighting, a dining table and chairs and outdoor heater.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
The second floor of the home includes all three bedrooms. Vaulted ceilings lend the rooms a spacious feeling and plenty of natural light enters through many windows and skylights.

Bedroom #1 has a queen size knotty pine sleigh bed with a Tempur-Pedic mattress, a 40-inch HDTV, a large closet with mirrored doors, and an outdoor balcony with bistro seating that overlooks downtown Pacific Grove, a perfect place to relax and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The adjoining bath, outfitted with limestone tile and brushed nickel fixtures, includes a tub with hand held sprayer, a separate shower stall with a height-adjustable shower head, and a private commode.

Bedroom #2 has a Tempur-Pedic queen bed, and Bedroom #3 has a two twin beds that can be converted to a king as needed with a Tempur-Pedic bed topper. The second bathroom has a combination tub/shower with height-adjustable shower head, as well as marble tile throughout and is accessed from the hallway.

Washer/Dryer are located on the second floor near the bedrooms. The home has a central vacuum system, a whole house water softener and a water filter system.

Garage doesn't accommodate a car, but has everything for a day at the beach and has room for bikes and storage.

One well-behaved dog under 35 lbs is 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.

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: We’ve stayed in Pacific Grove before at other rentals and La Gloria Cottage is one of our favorites. The house was very clean and nicely decorated. It was in a great location right in the heart of town. A short walk to the park, food, coffee and the beach. It was great for a family with kids. Would definitely stay here again!

There is much to love about LaGloria
Architecturally, it is quite ingenious. The angles and play of light are captivating, making what is actually a fairly small space feel spacious and interesting. We especially loved and used the fireplace that opened into both the living room and kitchen/dining area. The location was perfect for us. There were many days we did not even get into the car. We were within walking distance of shops, restaurants, a hardware store, the post office, ATMS, an excellent little market, liquor stores, florist, and most importantly, Lovers Point and magnificent pathways along Monterey Bay. We were there during winter and Covid, so things were very quiet. I imagine parking, traffic, and the gas station right next door would be considerations during peak season. We appreciated the furnishings and the many amenities provided. The kitchen had just about everything we could want (except a functioning oven, see below), there were luxurious robes in the closets, escape ladders in the bedrooms, battery operated candles for atmosphere (although we needed to supply our own batteries). We arrived to find ample paper products, cleaning supplies, and toiletries. The washer/dryer on the second floor was a huge plus. The garage offered storage for luggage and overflow like water, wine, TP, paper towels. Now the caveats: while there are two bathrooms, both are on the second floor; there is no mail delivery at the house, which turned into a major hassle because we were there for almost seven weeks over Christmas; we had no oven (the property managers graciously provided a fancy countertop oven, but it not only took up counterspace, but was not efficient for baking); and the windows need work. If these issues are addressed (okay, running upstairs to use the WC was good for our glutes, so we can live with that), we would happily rent this house again.
