The house is very nice in a great location and had everything we needed for our stay. The only thing that kept me from making 5 stars is the house is equipped with an eight zone sound system with controls in each room but none of them worked. We reported this to Sanctuary property management who said they would have someone call to set up an appointment to repair the next day. We never were contacted and the system never worked. Management never called to check on status.

This house does not disappoint! The location is perfect for walking to Monterey or Asilomar. It is light, bright, and has ocean views from multiple rooms.The home well-stocked with towels, bedding, and dishes. The kitchen is spacious and decently stocked--great selection of pots and pans. It was a wonderful month at Bliss by the Sea! My family will be returning next November.

Home was beautifully remodeled over 15 years ago. One of the nicest I have ever seen. Unfortunately it is showing signs of wear and tear and a general lack of routine maintenance. I left a list of recommended repairs before we left with Sanctuary. (I inspect buildings for our church properties in Morgan Hill. We will be renting again next year and we are hopeful repairs will have been made by then.

Reviewer Comments:
In our opinion, this home is not ready for prime time. Good bones, but weak condition. While we appreciate the responsiveness from Sanctuary, you may want to encourage the owner to make improvements. It took three requests and visits to fix 1st floor toilet. While the location is great, we were disappointed with the house. While we understand that homes along the coast age quicker, we are surprised by the lack of maintenance.

We loved the location of Bliss by the Sea. In just a half a mile walk, we were down to the coastal trail. Kitchen and bathroom supplies were so well stocked. Instructions for arrival and departure were clear. A special thank you to Susan, who was accessible and great to work with when we needed help with cable TV and outside grill issues! Two suggestions to the owner would be to upgrade the furniture in the living area and purchase a new outdoor grill and fire pit cover. Thanks!

Bliss By The Sea is perfectly located between Pacific Grove and Monterey (Cannery Row), a short walk to both. The property is very homey, professionally managed and well apportioned. It was perfect for out stay, and we would recommend it anyone looking for similar.

Wonderful, clean home in a perfect location. Within easy walking distance to Monterey Aquarium and Pacific Grove. Home was immaculate. Only comment would be that deck needs to be refinished. Thanks for renting out your home.

What an amazing property! The house was fantastic and just as described. The home was prepared so well for our stay! Felt like we were home the minute we arrived! Easy walk to beach and to town. Great location!

Great house in a wonderful location
We thought the house was great and met our needs. The kitchen was well equipped. The house had great instructions for the electronics and had lights labeled. The beds were very comfortable. It was unseasonably hot when we arrived and the house was 82 degrees. It would have been nice to know from the property manager that it didnt have AC. Once we found out the next day we realized that we needed to sleep with the windows open which is fine but there were no screens so some bugs made it into the house. Sanctuary said our Property Manager would get us some temporary screens but that did not occur and we never heard from him. It cooled off by Wed so it was fine. We did love the house but would have appreciated some communication from the Property Manager

July 2018 Stay
This was a perfect house! Clean, well organized, beautiful, well appointed, great location. Comfortable beds! Useful amenities. Our family could not have been happier!

Basically perfect
The house is very clean, well-maintained, and very well stocked. Great location, close to the aquarium and other attractions. The decor is also very attractive. It's clear that the management pays attention to details. Definitely the best rental we've ever stayed at.

Great stay, centrally located!
We enjoyed our stay at Bliss by the Sea!
The house was immaculate, very nicely decorated, and well stocked with linens and all the amenities we would need for our family of four. The location was perfect with an easy drive to Carmel and Monterey areas.
One suggestion might be to add two accent chairs in the master bedroom. It would be nice to have a place to sit other than on the bed while enjoying the views.
The only negative comments we have is the sofa and two chairs in the living room were not comfortable for our family. We are of average height & weight - there wasn't much cushion or a place to lean back. Also there was dog poop in the backyard that had not been cleaned up prior to our arrival and there were large spider webs on the deck. This didn't affect our stay much as it was too chilly to sit outside.
Sanctuary Vacation Rentals were top notch and easy to work with. The house manager made sure our needs were met and even followed up with an email and text message.
Would definitely recommend this property and we will be returning next year!
4.8
Appropriated named, Bliss by the Sea.
You truly feel like a welcomed guest in a good friend's home. Well-maintained. Lots of thought went into the decor with a beach-side theme. We enjoyed preparing meals in the kitchen as there is room for several cooks and most cooking implements you would have at your personal home, including a seasoned cast iron skillet! For four women from Texas, a cast iron skillet is a must!!
I do recommend reviewing the guest instructions book upon arrival. Many of your questions about appliances are answered there (like the dishwasher).
One suggestion might be to have a notebook with local restaurant menus for guests.
I truly hope to return one day.

Charming house by the sea
We absolutely loved staying here. It is such a charming house, beautifully decorated, plenty spacious for our family of six, and close to everything (within walking distance to the beach and you can see the ocean from the master bedroom windows).
On our early morning walks, we saw deer strolling through the neighborhoods and lots of whales and sea otters in the water! It is just minutes from Monterey and Carmel, and Pacific Grove is equally as charming. We wish we could have stayed longer and dream of returning!
The only reason I didn't give it five stars was because the kitchen windows were pretty dirty (obviously hadn't been cleaned before our arrival) and there were several spider webs in the kitchen and in a few other places throughout the house that we had to get rid of, but everything else was sparkling clean. There was also a car that was permanently parked directly out front of the house which was an annoyance more than anything else, but didn't really affect our stay at all. We very much appreciated many of the details that went into making our stay comfortable, such as cookies, cheese and crackers upon our arrival, bathrobes for most of us (would have appreciated six instead of just four), games for our family to play, movies, etc. The house has everything you will possibly need! I recommend without hesitation! Can't wait to someday return.
