What guests think
Reviews say 3485 Avalon by the Sea is a spotless, spacious, well-appointed home in a quiet, convenient neighborhood, with a standout kitchen, comfortable living areas, and a pleasant patio, often praised for clear communication and easy check-in.
Many praise the high-quality decor, generous bedrooms and bathrooms, and thoughtful stocking that makes the home feel welcoming. A few reviews note downsides: occasional unresponsive property management or delayed access, a less comfortable sofa bed in the third bedroom, and some road noise or tricky driveway access. Overall, expect a well-equipped base for exploring Monterey and nearby sights.

Everything about this house was perfect for the four of us! We celebrated a birthday and retirement royally! This home was 10-15 min away from everything we wanted to see....Carmel, PG, the Wharf, Pebble Beach. It was immaculate and had more than anyone could need! We especially enjoyed the fireplace each night....even though it was in the 70's in the day:) Thank you so much for making our stay special in every way!!! (an added bonus could be a firepit on the patio:) We sure hope to be back!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is very beautifully build. As we walked in the interior it immediately felt comfortable, luxurious and welcoming, just what we really wanted. There were only few down sides. Random paper tissues on the bed in the smaller room. The office room has water heater in the closet which made noise periodically. We could not use that closet as there is no space. Also,it took me nearly half an hour to locate the bedding for that room and even then we were missing pillows. Another disappointment was the company's inability to stand behind their words when they say there is a crib and a high chair,which I requested at the time of booking, and could not provide either one. The company charging a cleaning fee, but requested to do several chores at the check out and expects guests to leave promptly by 10:00am. This makes things a little stressful at the end. We also had internet loose connection a few times.

Such a beautiful property. It fits our family needs perfectly. I don’t think we spent more than 15 min in the car to go anywhere we needed to go (wharf, aquarium, beach, wedding in Carmel, restaurants) the home was so quite and relaxing. Perfect size backyard to relax and let our little ones play. It was the most complete kitchen we have ever had at a rental and highly recommend staying here as we anticipate a return for ourselves.

This home is beautiful! The hosts are wonderful and attentive. My husband and I stayed there with my parents and our two young children. The open kitchen/living area was large and spacious with lots of windows and natural light. We appreciated the large bathrooms as well. The home was VERY clean, well-kept, and well stocked. The pack-n-play was clean and new-looking which I appreciate. Hosts were quick to answer any questions. Check in was easy! Property details inside were very helpful. Instructions were very clear. Checkout instructions were clear and simple. When we walked in the home for the first time, we were greeted with calm music and a lovely gift of wine and cheese from the hosts!

I even found a KitchenAid stand mixer! The master bedroom was large and very comfortable as were the living areas. The property was spotless. We were close enough to all the touristy attractions, but off the beaten path in Del Rey Oaks in a quiet neighborhood. I didn’t want to leave when it was time to check out. I would definitely stay here again if the need arose!

We do a lot of day trips to Monterrey. Sometimes we stay at a hotel. This time we went with this house. The house is centrally located but extremely quiet and ideal for a family or quiet working trip. It is well appointed and very clean. I highly recommend this location and only wish we had added a day or 2 because it was such a peaceful place.

Very clean, beautiful home, especially the spacious kitchen. If you will use the coffee pot, bring basket type filters with your coffee. The pull out sofa was not comfortable, but they provided a large air mattress, which did the trick! We enjoyed the Monterey area very much; the wharf was about a 12 minute drive. Thank you for sharing your lovely home!

This home is beautifully decorated, and the furnishing are all high quality with the touch of an interior designer. It was such a comfortable and relaxing home to stay in. Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen was there. The appliances were new, bathrooms were amazing. The entire home looked like it was recently renovated with high end everything! We were so close to everyplace we went. LOVED this home. We wished the 3rd room had a trundle with actually beds mattresses instead of futon sofa. We double up in the master as the futon wasn't comfortable for any of us ladies.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at the house for one day with my wife and two young boys (ages7/8). The house was a good size for a small family and was clean in a quiet neighborhood close to a park. The only issue we ran into was when finally got to the house after spending all day at the Aquarium @ around 430( check in was at 4) the housekeepers were still cleaning the house and we could not access the house til 530. So having to wait in the car for an hour with two tired children is not what I would call a weekend retreat. So I wasn’t happy spending $900 for one and still having to put up with this inconvenience. I did email the vacation rental company when this occurred and got no response.

The home was stellar. Everything was clean. The communication from the host was easy and their responsiveness to our questions was quick. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed 4 nights. Everything was perfect. Beautiful home with every amenity you could possibly want. Great communication with owner. Definitely would stay again. The gardens and back patio area were a great place for morning coffee.

This home is beautiful! The hosts are wonderful and attentive. My husband and I stayed there with my parents and our two young children. The open kitchen/living area was large and spacious with lots of windows and natural light. We appreciated the large bathrooms as well. The home was VERY clean, well-kept, and well stocked. The pack-n-play was clean and new-looking which I appreciate. Hosts were quick to answer any questions. Check in was easy! Property details inside were very helpful. Instructions were very clear. Checkout instructions were clear and simple. When we walked in the home for the first time, we were greeted with calm music and a lovely gift of wine and cheese from the hosts!

Location
Guests like the quiet neighborhood and convenient drives to Monterey attractions, the wharf, aquarium, Carmel, Pebble Beach, and shopping. A few mentioned road noise and a main-road driveway that can be tricky.

The house was perfect for our group. It was well maintained and had all the comforts of home. Nice quiet neighborhood. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space. We needed to be at Laguna Seca everyday and it was an easy/quick trip from the house to either entrance. One person in our party needed to work from the house one day, she comfortably set up at the dining table and said it was quite pleasant with the windows open. We were there during the one week of the year that you probably want A/C but were were able to quickly cool the house opening the windows and getting a cross breeze. Would definitely stay there again.

Everything about this house was perfect for the four of us! We celebrated a birthday and retirement royally! This home was 10-15 min away from everything we wanted to see....Carmel, PG, the Wharf, Pebble Beach. It was immaculate and had more than anyone could need! We especially enjoyed the fireplace each night....even though it was in the 70's in the day:) Thank you so much for making our stay special in every way!!! (an added bonus could be a firepit on the patio:) We sure hope to be back!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Honestly, probably one of the nicest rental homes I have ever stayed in, and I have stayed in quite a few. The pictures do not do this home justice. My husband and I love to cook so the kitchen was a dream and had everything you could possibly want to cook a great meal or even bake! I even found a KitchenAid stand mixer! The master bedroom was large and very comfortable as were the living areas. The property was spotless. We were close enough to all the touristy attractions, but off the beaten path in Del Rey Oaks in a quiet neighborhood. I didn’t want to leave when it was time to check out. I would definitely stay here again if the need arose!

Very clean, beautiful home, especially the spacious kitchen. If you will use the coffee pot, bring basket type filters with your coffee. The pull out sofa was not comfortable, but they provided a large air mattress, which did the trick! We enjoyed the Monterey area very much; the wharf was about a 12 minute drive. Thank you for sharing your lovely home!

Such a beautiful property. It fits our family needs perfectly. I don’t think we spent more than 15 min in the car to go anywhere we needed to go (wharf, aquarium, beach, wedding in Carmel, restaurants) the home was so quite and relaxing. Perfect size backyard to relax and let our little ones play. It was the most complete kitchen we have ever had at a rental and highly recommend staying here as we anticipate a return for ourselves.
