Holiday rentals with a washing machine and dryer in Monterey County

My husband and I recently stayed in “Fancy Free by the Sea”. It met all of our needs. I loved the way it was decorated and it felt very homey. We appreciated the filtered water in the refrigerator and the available coffee, although we purchased our coffees in town. All in all, very cute, very relaxing space. I would stay there again. I gave it 5 stars.

This place was exactly as described in the listing and the pictures. It had all the conveniences of home that were needed for a small family and is very efficiently laid out. The living area with the huge windows made the space feel open and gave you views of Monterey Bay. It is very conveniently located in Pacific Grove--walkable to Lover's Point Beach and short drive or long walk to Cannery Row or the "downtown." Although the single parking space is tight, it was very convenient to have dedicated parking close by. Check in was very easy, instructions were clearly provided. They had a washer and dryer in the building, which was also convenient for a week long stay. Mermaid Cove is definitely a convenient, comfortable, and peaceful place to stay. I highly recommend it.

Perfect oasis in the beautiful Carmel. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the sunset, a perfect place!

We have stayed at many beach hotels and apartments and this may have been the best. Beautiful view of the beach, which is pretty quiet. And you can walk on the beach for a couple of hours in either direction. Also really enjoyed the location in Watsonville, which is the strawberry capital of the US. And nice to have Monterey and Santa Cruz nearby. Communicaiton with Pajaro Dunes was very good and helpful. Look forward to coming back.

I had a wonderful stay, Jeff was so helpful arranging a last-minute trip and was a fantastic host. The studio was very quiet and peaceful and I enjoyed spending time on the patio in the back. It was a great place to spend some time in the Carmel area.

Janice’s apartment had gorgeous views and was a short walk to a lovely and walkable beach. The kitchen had everything we needed to make easy meals and the whole place was clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay there again!

Excellent host, would definitely stay here again. Perfect location for walking around Carmel by the Sea.

Jane and her husband were lovely hosts and their home was beautiful! We had an amazing stay and would love to return!

Jose-Ann were great hosts! Clean home and very accomodating

The house was very clean, comfortable and welcoming. We were a short drive from restaurants and areas of interest. Would definitely recommend.

The copper nest was a great place to stay for our long weekend trip. It was ideally situated 30mins drive from UCSC. The beach house exceeded our expectations, and comfortably accommodated 8 guests. All aspects had been thought about by the host, from the detailed text messages pre arrival through to the prevision of supplies, saving the immediate necessity to go basic food shopping. The house was pleasantly furnished with high end product and the beds were so comfortable. The state beach (only foot steps away) was so peaceful, with barely a sole on this stretch. Both hosts were responsive to any issues or questions. Thank you

We really enjoyed our stay at the Hummingbird (and saw hummingbirds at the feeders in the back yard). There were 6 of us (including our 2 teenagers and my parents) and it was comfortable and peaceful. The garden in the back is a work of art! We loved looking at how beautiful everything was placed and masterfully pruned. Very lovely and reminded me of being in Japan. My 14-year old son said it was his favorite place because of the granola bars, Ramen, and hot chocolate Shiho graciously stocks for guests. And the kitchen had all the little things you wish you had when you’re away from home, like sandwich baggies and a plastic spoon for your lunch. We made all our meals and ate at home every night. She had everything we needed to make meals. Shiho is a lovely hostess and has thought through little things to make your stay pleasant. The sheets were so soft. Plenty of towels in the bathroom and everything was spotless. We felt at home and would love to stay there again.

The place is beautiful and bigger then what I had imagined it was going to be from the pictures. The Beds are so comfy and the couches. Restaurants, gas stations and grocery store are near by so you don't have to drive far and love how it was centered to the places we ended up visiting. We would stay here again.

Our family had a wonderful time soaking in the spectacular mountain views and embracing nature’s beauty. We loved our unexpected encounters with the local deer family, watching quail cross the streets, and discovering fascinating California native plants. Surprise to find items we need in the pantry and refrigerator, made us feel right at home. The comfortable mattresses and bedding ensured a restful sleep, even with the mysterious sounds of the wild surrounding the house at night. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

We had a great stay at Richard’s ranch. The house is beautiful and the property around match this too. It was a very peaceful and relaxing stay. Richard and his wife were super responsive and went above and beyond helping us navigate getting to and from the house. They are excellent hosts! We were sad to leave and hope to be able to visit again!

Sam’s place was in a great location, about 12-15 minute walk to all the restaurants and shops. Sam’s place was clean, comfortable and had everything that we need for a fun weekend in Carmel. I recommend Sam’s place to any couples or small groups.

Wonderful condo nestled in the Pajaro Dunes Resort. We traveled with two elementary aged kids and they had a fantastic time. A great family getaway. We brought our own groceries and there was plenty of amenities in the kitchen for eating in every meal. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach and beautiful views from the inside as well. We appreciated having the beach chairs & tennis items. The resort recreation area was a lot of fun and we spent several hours there. Comfortable beds and upgraded furnishings. Overall, a fantastic experience and we can’t wait to return again someday.

All around great experience, location, hosts and stay. Very helpful and responsive hosts, and the onsite community association members were helpful, kind and welcoming. The unit was nicely updated, and it's unlikely you'll find a place closer to the beach. Close to the boardwalk to the north, and the aquarium to the south. Minutes to Castroville and what is easily one of the best Sushi restaurants in California. Recommended.

Stayed with my husband and parents here for our wedding week that was happening in the area. The place was plenty spacious for 4 people! Much better than a hotel room would’ve been. Gave us quality time cooking in the kitchen and hanging out in the living room, enjoying the hottub & heated pool and the beach! The ocean view from the dining table and the front porch is STUNNING!! The place is nice, well kept, and has everything you need! Any small things that popped up, Patti was helpful and fixed right away! Would definitely stay here again!!

We had a wonderful stay. It is a beautifully designed space that had everything we needed to relax, cook nice meals, sleep well and enjoy the beach which was a minutes walk away. It allowed us to really relax and enjoy our time there- only three days but felt like we were at home! Highly recommend

This stay is absolutely amazing. Comfy bed and furniture. Stocked Kitchen. Steps to the beach. Closet full of beachy things. We had fun flying the kite. Built bonfires just over the dune on the beach. 🏖️ Don’t hesitate to book. This place is it.

Staying at this Airbnb was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warmth and thoughtfulness—fresh local flowers, many beautiful books related to the neighborhood in reading material. The space was immaculately clean, beautifully designed, with everything I could need—toiletries to fast Wi-Fi .The host went above and beyond, checking in to ensure everything was perfect. It felt less like a rental and more like a five-star boutique hotel with the heart of a home. I truly didn’t want to leave!” This is a real heartfelt space in the middle of my home town that provided the soulful connection to home.

Everything was just as described - kitchen was well stocked and had the staples which I appreciated - plenty of coffee too! Beach location was wonderful - 5 out of 5!

Thank you Mary for a wonderful vacation, it was a fantastic trip, the place is very beautiful, amazing view from the window, the apartment is clean and cozy, everything is there for a comfortable vacation, we were delighted. I recommend to everyone who loves comfort, coziness and a beautiful view of the ocean!!! Thank you!!!!
