Description:The Cottage at Green Gates is a Tidy 1 bed/​1bath Tudor guest house situated on our large lot, a five minute walk from Asilomar State Beach. The cottage is offered fully furnished with kitchenette, organic fair trade coffee, selection of teas, and each morning we serve you a light breakfast. (i.e. scrambled eggs or yogurt granola, organic local fruit, homemade bread, etc.) Note: if you have food allergies or dietary limitations of any kind, please let us know in advance, we're happy to accommodate you! NEW: complimentary guest passes to the Monterey Bay Aquarium ($60 value) TV secured Wifi Non-destructive pets are welcome Small, semi-private patio Complimentary organic toiletries Iron/​ironing board Hair dryer All linens included, plus dishes, pots, pans, and basics like oil, spices, etc. NEW: 4-inch memory foam mattress topper (we're told it is very comfortable!) We're on the MST bus line, so if you'd rather not drive, the #1 express stops right outside our gates at :21 after the hour until 7pm. The cottage comfortably sleeps 2. If your party is larger (i.e. a 3rd person, or a child) please contact us in advance to discuss arrangements, we can stash an Aero bed and extra linens in the closet prior to your arrival. Rates slightly higher during major tourist events ($175) 2 night minimum required during major tourist events (i.e. AT&T, Concours d'Elegance, US Open, etc.) Location: 5 minute walk to Asilomar State Beach, Asilomar Conference Ctr, and the recreation trail (Bring your binoculars - almost guaranteed sightings of otters and seals, and lately, whale spouts!) 15-20 minute walk or 5 minute drive to downtown Pacific Grove 10 minute drive to Oldtown Monterey/​Wharf Approximately 3 miles from Cannery Row/​Monterey Bay Aquarium Less than 1 mile from the 17 mile drive gates into Pebble Beach 1/​3 mile from Pacific Grove Municipal Golf Course 20ish minute drive to Carmel Valley/​Wine Country 30ish minute drive to INCREDIBLY scenic Big Sur Bring your bicycles - our mild climate and stunning scenery make the Monterey Peninsula an ideal spot for exploring on 2 wheels. You should know a few things.... 1. We live in the main house full-time, and have 2 dogs. Though our dogs do not go in the guest cottage, if you suffer from severe pet allergies you should know that dogs do roam the yard from time to time, and there might have been a guest pup in the cottage prior to your reservation. Though we do clean the cottage thoroughly between guests, it is certainly likely that allergens could still be present. 2. Additionally, you should know that approximately once per week (usually Thursdays or Fridays) we have our weekly yard service. Sometimes the maintenance is relatively quiet (raking, trimming, etc.) and sometimes the situation is far more noisy (leaf blowers, weed whackers, and the like). Most guests haven't minded, but someone mentioned it recently and we figured going forward, our guests should know what to expect. 3. If you accidentally take the Aquarium Guest Passes with you when you depart, we will expect you to overnight them back to us at your expense so that we can offer the same courtesy to our next guests. 4. For reservations booked after May 2012, we are asking for a 2 night minimum. If you've booked prior to May 2012, we will absolutely honor your reservation for 1 night. We *LOVE* hosting Airbnb guests, and whether you opt to stay with us, or elsewhere, I'm confident you'll enjoy your trip to the stunning Monterey Peninsula.

Description:**Savings apply when booking within 7 days of arrival** n**Book 4 or More Nights at Regular Rates now thru 5/​31/​12, Get the Last Night FREE! n nJust steps to the ocean! This custom European style home will make you feel like you are on the Mediterranean. White water views of Monterey Bay, sailboats, sea life and the mountains beyond! This unique 1,850 square foot, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, has all the feeling and comforts you could want from a luxury home. n nThis tile-roofed beauty is ideally located in an upscale neighborhood, steps to Monterey Bay, minutes from downtown Pacific Grove, Cannery Row, the famous Monterey Bay Aquarium and no more than 10 minutes to Monterey or 15 minutes to Carmel and Pebble Beach. At its doorstep is a popular walking and bike path along the bay's shoreline extending from Cannery Row to the jewel-like Lovers Point, past the famed succulent carpet of pink blooms, and around the point with its trademark lighthouse, and all the way to Spanish Bay and the world famous Pebble Beach. n nFrom the moment you set foot on the property, you will feel that you have stepped into another world. A charming old wooden gate welcomes you through to a brick pathway lined with ferns and trumpet vines which lead you to the front door. You will enter a vaulted foyer with a magnificent turn of the century art nouveau stained glass chandelier, a hand carved Moroccan mirror and an intricately carved antique wood chest from India. n nA hallway leads you from the entry to two bedrooms and a full bath. The first bedroom, with its garden view, has a king bed and a large walk-in closet. The second bedroom has an ocean view and a queen bed. Both bedrooms feature rustic wrought-iron chandeliers, Parisian shutters as headboards, luxury mattresses and linens, as well as Louis XVI style armchairs. The bathroom is tiled in terracotta and features a large step-down shower that can be partially filled for a shallow bath. The first floor also features a spacious laundry room with a front-loading washer and dryer. n nWhen you climb the stairs from the entry way you will enter a spacious living room with elegant old world charm. Wood- beamed vaulted ceiling, a gas fireplace with massive carved and gilded wooden mirror over the mantle, a rich chocolate colored velvet couch, leather and tapestry side chairs, an antique library table and a leather-covered mahogany coffee table. The only touch to modernity is a large flat screen television. But if natural views are of more interest, the bay window looks out to the handsome neighboring homes, Monterey cypresses and the ocean beyond. n nThe master bedroom on the second floor has an air of opulence created by the wood beamed ceiling, bronze Moroccan chandelier, king size bed, large walk-in closet and a magnificent view of white water breaking against the rocks below. The large terracotta tiled bathroom with its walk-in shower, his-and-her sinks and a separate commode complete this luxurious suite. nThis is a home where relaxation is a part of every room. Even the kitchen and dining room feature tranquilizing views of white-capped waves across Monterey Bay to the mountains in the far distance and encompassing an expanse of sky. Throw open any window and you can breathe in the fresh ocean air and take in the soothing sounds of lapping waves, chirping birds and the occasional barking of a bay seal. n nThe joy of cooking takes on new meaning in the fully-equipped, gleaming white ceramic-tiled open kitchen where you can watch the ever changing light and cloud show over the water and even catch sight of an occasional whale or a pod of dolphins. Cooks will delight in the carefully conceived layout which includes a four burner Wolf gas stove, side-by-side stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave. A long counter top divides the cooking and dining areas which allows the cook to serve hungry appetites without missing any of the fun and gorgeous ocean views. n nIn the adjacent dining area, a long wooden antique table seats up to eight beneath a European wrought-iron chandelier. Here, eating takes on a heightened dimension with the daylight views of passing fishing boats, gamboling seals and gulls gliding on the currents of sea air. As the light wains on the horizon, the hues constantly change and then fade away as the moonlight begins to sparkle over the water. n nAnd after a serene, luxurious sleep you may rise to see the soft pastel lights of morning emerge as you loll about enjoying your morning coffee on either of the two spacious balconies off the dining area. n nThe home also includes a two car, non-attached garage and a driveway for 2 additional cars. There is ample on-street parking. In addition to the myriad of outstanding restaurants in the nearby communities of Pacific Grove, Monterey and Carmel, there is the convenience of neighborhood markets, farmer' markets and other amenities just minutes away. n n n

Description:Sure, San Francisco has the Victorian architecture and the cable cars, but Monterey Bay is the purist’s California. Henry Miller once said of the area, This is the California men dreamed of years ago ... The face of the earth as the Creator intended it to look. And so it is. Monterey Bay has inspired artists from John Steinbeck to Ansel Adams. To get a little inspiration in your life, drive just north of the city of Monterey to your resort at Marina Dunes. As you do, roll down the windows and take in the sweet coastal air. You’ll hear the sea lions and the roaring surf drifting on the wind. After you check in, check out Cannery Row and the unbelievable Monterey Bay Aquarium. There’s plenty to see and do as you sink into the history and beauty of this unique stretch of California coastline.

Description:Come discover why Santa Cruz is such a popular destination. Our stand alone cottage (not in our back yard) is on a quiet alley way centrally located near great activities. Easy walking to the yacht harbor and beach so you can rent kayaks, surf boards, SUPs (stand up paddling). Bicycling along the ocean is fairly flat or go to the mountains for a challenging mountain bike ride. Or course one of the best beaches for sun bathing and volleyball is an easy two block walk right behind the ever popular Crow’s Nest Restaurant. (Please read all of this description before making a reservation. The pricing could be different depending on the length of your stay. Save $$$) Santa Cruz is No. 15 in TripAdvisor rankings TripAdvisor is listing Santa Cruz as No. 15 among U.S. destinations on the rise, partly for being one of America’s surfing capitals. The top three things to do as recommended by visitors: West Cliff Drive, for breathtaking views and a chance to see monarch butterflies, the San¬ta Cruz Beach Boardwalk and the UC Santa Cruz Arboretum. Santa Cruz Food Tour is the top-rated tour, fol¬lowed by Stagnaro Fishing Trips it has a very thin mattress. The charming bathroom has a blue tiled shower with unlimited hot water. There is also a hair dryer. The full kitchen comes with a toaster, blender, coffee maker, gas stove, microwave, and refrigerator. We also have an ironing board and iron for your convenience. Comcast provides services for Wi-Fi, the 32” flat screen TV, and telephone. There is also a DVD player and an iPod charging dock. We provide clean sheets, pillow cases, and blankets. For the bathroom we provide towels, hand towels, and wash clothes. There are also 4 beach towels. Within walking distance we have everything you need for a lazy day. For restaurants close by you can walk to the Crow’s Nest, Johnny’s Harborside, El Palomar Café, The Kind Grind (coffee), Harbor Café (breakfast and lunch). Aldo’s is on the other side of the harbor which is great for a long walk. During the summer there is a free water taxi that goes around the harbor. Slow, calm, and great for all ages. For local grocery stores Santa Cruz style we have Shopper’s Corner, New Leaf, and Staff of Life. We also have two Whole Foods and a Trader Joe’s. I am surprised that TripAdvisor didn’t mention Pacific Garden Mall for an activity. Downtown is a really cool way to get exposure to Santa Cruz. Just sit on a bench and watch what goes by. Or course they have movies and restaurants and shopping and treats. We require a two night minimum at the daily rate. There is a $75 cleaning fee. This cleaning fee is waived should you stay a minimum of 3 nights. Our rates are seasonal so watch the calendar for the current rate. Therefore, if the rate is $99 a night and you stay for 3 nights the price will be $297 plus the 10% ($29.70) Airbnb charges for a total of $326.70. If you choose to stay two nights the price would be $198 plus the cleaning fee of $75 for a sub total of $273 plus the Airbnb charge of 10%. Total $300.30. Most guests choose to spend a third night enjoying Santa Cruz for close to the same price. If you choose the 3 plus night option Airbnb well deduct the $75 which lowers the daily cost. The easiest way to deduct the cleaning fee is to send me the inquiry and I will special offer you a reduced price. If you enjoy long beach walks or walks around a harbor where the scenery is forever changing this is the place for you. The low sounds of sea lions in the distance and the long lines of Brown Pelicans flying by are always mesmerizing. If you enjoy great restaurants the world famous Shadowbrook in Capitola consistently gets voted for most romantic. We hope you choose our cottage for your stay.
