This is very cute little house in a great location! It is very clean. The neighbors are very friendly and helpful. The management is responsive. Walk the neighborhood and find history around every corner!

We are a family of four, with a 6yo and an infant. This house was perfect for our needs. It was really cozy and peaceful. We appreciated having a full bathroom on each floor. The location was perfect, and we didn’t drive all weekend except the 5 minutes to get to the aquarium. The beach, cafes, restaurants, and a great market are all 2-4 blocks away. The house is outdated, which I was worried about from the listing, but it wasn’t really an issue because the house was so clean and well maintained.

I took 2 of my granddaughters to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium. This cute little house has lots of personality and quirks and we loved it. So much better than a hotel room. My younger grand fell in love with her "fluffy soft" bed and they enjoyed having the privacy of the entire 2nd floor. So did I. I had to remember how to parallel park. I think it's been 30 years since I had to do that. Staff very helpful too.
4.8
The house is an adorable tiny Victorian. The location is amazing. You can walk everywhere. The only thing I would recommend is more blankets. A throw on the sofa would be nice. However, we were fine without them or we would have asked for them.

Lovely stay at Sweet Pea - a splendid bungalow with a great view of the bay over Lover’s Point. We had a great time here. Management was very responsive to questions as well.
4.8
Such a lovely charming place! Loved the lavender in the front garden. Full washer and dryer at back of house was very convenient. Made use of well equipped kitchen. Location is great making for easy walking to restaurants, Lover's Point and the Monterey walkway. Highly recommend.
4.8
Overall the property is clean and fairly cute. It is old and has not been updated so floors are slanty, windows are weathered with peeling paint and layout is SO ODD with the bathroom door right next to the stove in the kitchen. And it’s tiny. I actually nicknamed it “The Mouse House.” But the price was reasonable for the area. We did love that there were 2 full bathrooms though.
I felt we needed more towels (6 bath towels for 4 people for 4 days) as we don’t want to spend time doing laundry. Upstairs remote batteries were dead, and the grill had no propane. We had a planned pre-race dinner with 7 people and that was a real irritant as I even mentioned it days before we arrived. Never got a reply back from property manager about it. There wasn’t a single platter for serving a meal. Not enough kitchen utensils (big spoons, forks, a cheese grater, serving bowls). These are the basics.
Overall, a reasonably priced place in a great location but lacking in the details.
4.8
We drove to Sweet Pea, parked right in front of the house, and walked everywhere (including the Aquarium). The accommodations were spotless, we had everything we needed to prepare meals, and we slept soundly. During some windy periods the screens rattled a wee bit, but those were the only interruptions to our serenity. We would definitely return.
4.8
Perfect location, 5 minute walk to the water and restaurants, stores, and bars. Fully equipped kitchen (cutting board and full size baking sheet would be a nice addition, but we’re cooks!) Beds were comfortable. Upstairs bathroom was doable, but some type of shower curtain addition would be perfect. Parking was never a problem. Neighbors were fantastic with numerous suggestions about the area.
4.8
Property was very clean. Beds were very comfortable and close to everything. Nice property!

This bungalow was perfect for the 4 of us gals! The location was wonderful. We had so much fun in Pacific Grove and the surrounding area. It was a delight to come back “home” each evening!
4.8
the house needs a lot of work, the front door has a gap between the door and the door jamb, the door bangs when its windy and cold air blows in. The heater didn't start twice and the fireplace frequently sidn't start. the heater is at the bottom of the stairs so the heat goes upstairs. The kitchen table is sticky and wiping it doesn'ytfix the problem. The dishwasher door is so tight I couldn'tt close it. the windows have cracked paint and the window sills outside are filthy. In short it was not what I expected for what I paid

Cute Victorian house in a great neighborhood
4.8
We loved the location of this home because we were close to the harbor in one direction and close to lots of great restaurants and shops in the other direction. If you are traveling by car be aware that there is only street parking available.
4.8
Such a sweet little Victorian home to stay in for 5 days. Plenty of room for 3 adults. It was warm and cozy-very enjoyable and quiet. Parking isn’t guaranteed in front of the house but we always found a spot either further down the street or on one of the adjacent streets. Lovers Point is literally at the bottom of the street and features restaurants and areas to sit and take in the gorgeous views of the bay. The bike path is a beautiful, easy going stroll from Lovers Point in Pacific Grove all the way to Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey. The Sweet Pea is a perfect place to relax.
4.8
Great location and we had a wonderful stay.
The only downsides were the sticky dining table- I tried cleaning it with dish soap and with spray cleaner but it didn’t make any difference, I think it needs to be refinished. We couldn’t use it or put anything on it, consequently we ate out more than we planned (=more expensive).
The bathtub and shower upstairs got water all over the floor and made it very slippery, not to mention potential long term damage to the floorboards, maybe a shower curtain is needed?
And the location sometimes made finding close parking difficult, maybe give renters more of a heads up in advance. For example getting luggage or picnic things in and out.

Charming house in great location. House was equipped with everything we needed. Thanks!

Perfectly situated and comfortable cottage. Loved the walkability to everything - Lovers Point, downtown PG, even the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Really enjoyed our stay.

Nice house, very clean. However, parking was horrible! No driveway for this property. One way street and street parking very limited. Carrying luggage, groceries a couple of blocks due to parking limitations. This should be clearly stated in property description.
4.8
My mom and I stayed here for 4 nights while touring the central California coast. The house couldn't be more convenient to Lover's Point and the hike/bike coastal trail. The street is quiet and parking was easily found. We especially loved the gas fireplace and the separation of the master (ground floor) from the guest bedroom (upstairs) giving us plenty of "space" and privacy. The power went out on the entire Monterey Peninsula for 2 of our days there, but we found all the needed amenities in the house - flashlight, candles, lighter. I would definitely rent this house again!
4.8
Two suggestions: Sticks to hold windows up, since the cords were broken in the lower bedroom window. We used a wooden spoon. Much simpler than replacing the cords. And some plastic containers for food storage. We bought four at Safeway. I loved staying in a Victorian era home and watching the sunset from the living room. I think I've never felt so much at home in any other lodging. I'm 100% sure I would stay there again. And we couldn't have been any closer to the heart of Pacific Grove.
I love the mystery why almost all the home had women's names on the plaques. I did see one that said Robert. Thanks for doing everything right.
4.8
We really enjoyed our stay at Sweet Pea. The location and the amenities were great. It was easy to get in and there was usually a parking space in front of the house, or at worst half a block away.
The negatives: We couldn’t leave any food out because it attracted ants, and I found a spider in the bathroom. Also it was chilly when we were there and I didn’t finally figure out the heat until the day we left. Luckily there were plenty of blankets so it was cozy! Even when the power went out in a storm we were comfortable.
As a bonus the neighbor’s dog was friendly and playful so I didn’t miss my own pets so much.
4.8
Cozy and convenient layout. Close to the center and very quiet street. Suggest to put a sign to guarantee guest parking space. Downstairs shower Sewer blockages, had to clean into deep to get hairs out and let water flow.
We enjoyed our stay, feel like home. Thank you.

Property was in a great location, nice little porch in front along with patio in back. Easy check in and out, parking can be tricky but usually can find one around the block and walk over. Would stay here again when we come back!

My husband , brother-in-law and sister-in-law stayed here for 3 nights as an after tax season getaway. Location is great and enjoyed the quaintness of this historic home. My dislike was the street parking We are from Arizona and this isn’t something we have an issue with. When I read street parking I “assumed” it would be assigned to each house. My bad live and learn.
4.8
This small historic home is darling. Very short walk to Lover’s Point. Rent bikes there and explore the paved ocean side walkway/bikeway that goes to Aquarium and Cannery Row. Enjoy coffee on the front porch and eat dinner off the grill on tucked away table for 4. Michelle, property manager, was very responsive. We had a great time.
4.8
Sweet pea is located just blocks from the ocean and great places to eat in Pacific Grove. We really enjoyed walking along the nearby pathway that follows the coastline. It was so beautiful and my son loved riding his scooter there. The house is an adorable historic Victorian, very clean and quaint. It is nicely furnished and comfortable for a small family. The towels are soft and beds are comfortable for a good night's sleep. The fireplace in the living room puts off a lot of heat and wall heater takes care of the bedrooms. Each bathroom has it's own heater too. The neighborhood is very quiet. Michelle was easy to reach for any questions ahead of time and during our stay.

Process was easy. The house was clean and cozy, and the location can’t be beat. Half a block to the beach as well as town. Close to the aquarium, grocery store, and restaurants.

Wonderful property that presents as advertised. Great location, very cozy and comfortable inside. Only downside is parking can be hard to find. Other than that, it's fantastic. We will be back!

Great little house in a great neighborhood. House was well stock and owners very attentive. Short walk to downtown and great food and shops!!
4.8
Very nice small old house two blocks from the ocean. The kitchen and eating area (in the kitchen) are quaint and pleasant. The house is old and slopes down hill (front to back) but that’s to be expected in a house built in 1883. The bathrooms are nice (one on each floor). We also were able to BBQ outside using the nice propane grilll.
4.8
Cute property big enough for a family of four. Cafes, restaurants, grocery store, liquor store, and beach all within 5 min walk! Monterey bay aquarium it’s about 10-15 min walk.
