About this house rental
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. Well-equipped for extended stays!

The adjoining bath, outfitted with limestone tile, 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 and is accessed from the hallway.

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.

This charming home was perfect in every way for our family of 4. Really appreciated Sanctuary Vacation Rentals having the option to have the twin bed guest room converted to a king bed for our tall teenager. All amenities we needed were at our fingertips, and the check-in process was seamless. Professionally managed every step of the way. This home is in the perfect location for our needs and where we were intending to go each day.

Cutest home in a perfect location
We loved everything about this home — the set up and cleanliness and comfort were unparalleled, and the management of the home superb. They thought of everything — well stocked kitchen for dishes and pots and pans, bathrooms had lots of fluffy towels, fireplace worked to make downstairs cozy. The photos of the home are exactly what we got, and we are so glad we found this sweet respite for a few days away. Great location for excursions to Carmel, Monterey Bay. aquarium, kayaking, and also super comfortable for just relaxing.

Reviewer Comments:
The house is in a good location. However, when turning on a lamp, I reached over the end table and saw visible mouse droppings. It was very disconcerting. I then noticed how very dusty and dirty all the baseboard areas were. It was very hard to be comfortable in the house thinking a mouse would come by. The people were responsive in coming over, but did not clean up the droppings at first. Another person came out and put on gloves and picked them up. Why didn't they vacuum and really clean the area? Also, sewage backed up on the front yard the last day of our stay. The house accommodates 6, we were 3 people for most of the week 6 people on the last night. Regular use of the toilets with 6 people apparently too much for the older house.

This home was perfect for us and our two daughters. Everyone had their own room which were very well appointed with bedding, pillows, towels, and portable fans! (Heat advisory) The home is very clean & comfortable. We walked to coffee every morning and enjoyed an easy stroll to the beach. They provided all the beach gear you’d need however we didn’t use it. We will definitely keep this home on our short list for future visits to the Penninsula!

La Gloria is a sweet little cottage in the perfect location. Very clean and welcoming. Super comfortable beds and great water pressure in the shower!
Right in the heart of Pacific Grove you can walk to many restaurants and all kinds of shopping. Monterey Aquarium just a 5 minute drive and Carmel 10-15.
Beachfront trails go for miles!

It was perfect in every way. We all slept extremely well; had all (and more) that we could hope for in the kitchen and the house in general. It was a very easy place to stay and super convenient to our favorite restaurants, bookstore, coffee shop, etc.
One suggestion would be to think about replacing the “failed” glass in the front door and front windows. The home is perfectly looked after in every other way and its a pity the glass is not up to the same standard.

Family Stay in July
The property was exactly as described. We have rented homes in Carmel, Pebble, and PG for the last several years and we think this is the best all around property for a family experience. We appreciate that the owners have stocked the home with everything needed.

January 2019 Stay
The property was quite comfortable, charming and perfectly located for our special visit to the Monterey Bay area. We found the photos did it justice and then some. Having it within walking distance of many fine restaurants and shops made for a great visit. The attention to amenities and decor made it a very wise choice for the rental - specially after looking at so many other properties. Highly recommend this property.

Practically Perfect in Every way
This has to be one of the best-appointed places I've ever stayed. Literally, the only kitchen apparatus they didn't have were a waffle maker and fondue pots(both Christmas traditions so we brought our own.) But literally everything else they HAD. Pots, pans, cookie sheets, spatulas, whisk, at least 8 mixing bowls, electric mixer. Beautiful place settings, extra chairs, extra blankets. Kids toys, kids silverwear, did I mention a FULL size grill outside? THEY DECORATED for CHRISTMAS!!!! We walked into a beautiful table setting that could have graced Pinterest or Good Housekeeping. Everything was lovely. Now we had a lot of guest for Christmas Eve and morning around 12 so things got a little tight downstairs. This being said if you only had six people it was perfection. It is in a perfect location in downtown Pacific Grove. Now there are one or two things I'd change only as a parent and I would give this place 6 stars if I could so these are two very tiny notes. My child of 18months is a kamikaze when it comes to electric outlets. If there is an outlet within a 100ft my kid is trying to stick something in it. If your child is similar bring some electrical covers. And I wish they had some kind of hook on the coffee table that slides for pillow storage as we ended up with several pinched fingers. This is one of the nicest cleanest beautiful places I've ever been in. It was perfection! We can't thank the hosts enough.

This home is AMAZING!!
Such a beautiful home to relax in. It has all the amenities you could want or expect in a home. Our stay was very comfortable for a family of 4 adults-plenty of room for everyone. This home is so close to all the restaurants and stores on Lighthouse Avenue. 5 minute drive to Cannery Row and Monterey Bay Aquarium, less than 5 minutes to Lovers Point and 5 minutes the other way to the ocean. It was such a relaxing vacation for our family in Pacific Grove at La Gloria Cottage by the Sea.

Glorious getaway
Wonderful location, well appointed, very comfortable. Everything you could ask for in your home away from home. Every detail is thoughtfully considered. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking any meal - even Thanksgiving dinner.
Plenty of seating for two couples and a 3 year old.
Great location for a beach get away.
I would definitely stay here again
