3946 Listen to the Waves - Huge Ocean View, Walk to Aquarium and Restaurants!

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Listen to the Waves"! This home sleeps up to 4 guests.

This building was once featured by Better Homes and Gardens Magazine which highlighted its proximity to the ocean and spectacular views.
Located under 60 feet from the water's edge, you can step onto your front deck, feel the waves' mist on your face and Listen To The Waves.

Pacific Grove has been voted 'most romantic town'. Full bay views are seen from this Ocean View Boulevard home. Watch for wildlife, sailboats and the sparkling lights that come out in the evenings. An easy 3-block walk to the renown Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row.

Located near a protected sea lion birthing area which can be viewed from the large ocean view windows of the home along with abundant sea wildlife like birds, otters, dolphins and more.

Right outside your door is the Monterey recreation trail that connects Pebble Beach® and its world-class golf courses, Asilomar, Lovers Point, historic Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf, the Monterey Bay Aquarium all the way to Santa Cruz. It is perfect for strolls, runs, cycling and traveling from place to place on foot or bike.

Enjoy nearby Scenic drives like 17 Mile Drive® in Pebble Beach® and the Pacific Coast Highway to Carmel, Big Sur and beyond. This fantastic location puts you close to everything you want to see when you visit the Monterey area where weather is mild year-round. While photos can't quite do it justice, they do accurately represent the home and its views. This luxurious vacation rental and its complex were once featured in Sunset magazine for their ideal proximity to world famous dining, shopping and recreational opportunities.

Beautiful Sea View of Otters
An unbelievably beautiful location and property. Luxurious, lots of little touches to make it feel even more so. Very clean, very well appointed, everything you could need. Walking distance from town for groceries and eating. Fantastic sea view of otters through the amazing front windows. Can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful Stay!
The property was very quiet and relaxing. You couldn't ask for a better location or better views! The property is definitely older, but very comfortable with some

Wonderful little cottage by the sea
Loved the location! loved the house! Very quaint and the architecture was older style which we loved. Everything was good. The only thing that I would say is to make it clear that the living room and bedroom are in one room as opposed to 2 bedrooms as the description said. I did wonder about the pic that showed a couch and bed but to me it could have been confirmed in the description. Otherwise very cute little place.
