The property is spacious, quiet, and nicely decorated. We really enjoyed the large dining table and kitchen space. The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, and lots of dishes. The location is about a 15-minute drive to Cannery Row depending on traffic. One thing to be aware of is that the property management's cancellation policy differs from what is listed on Vrbo. It would be helpful to have the actual policy reflected in the listing.

We really enjoyed our stay at the house. The rooms are just as they appear in the photos. The beds are comfy, the shower pressure is good and the view from the balcony nice. It's in a good location to get to many points around Monterey and near a grocery store.

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: We stayed at this VRBO for a memorial service for our mother. We were curious if the pics would live up to the reality and they did. The house was clean and stocked with everything we needed, including board games. If you travel with vinyl, there is a record player as well. The small touch of a basket providing slides to wear around the house since no shoes were allowed was great. The home was conveniently located and perfect for a larger family. The best praise we can give is when we were filling out our departure survey, our 15 year old nephew walked up and said "it was perfect". No higher praise than from the mouth of a teen. Book it!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was amazing. It was easy to find. We loved sitting on the back deck watching the airplanes land and take off. The house was not too close so that it was super noisy from the planes. It was very close to stores, Safeway and Walgreens, so we could quickly grab anything we needed. The weather when we were there was perfect for using the fireplace in the front room. Something to note is the room off the livingroom ises a standing heater to keep it warm. My family had a great time staying here.

Ein Haus zum Wohlfühlen: geräumig, nett eingerichtet, gut ausgestattet, sauber und gemütlich ! Ausstattung hochwertig, Handtücher, Badprodukte, Bettwäsche alles in guter Qualität. Küche ebenfalls gut ausgestattet und funktionsfähig. Das Haus war von Innen Tip top sauber, doch außen relativ ungepflegt, besonders der Hauseingang...... Die örtliche Agentur ist zu kritisieren, da sie uns den zweiten Teil der Miete zweimal abgebucht hatten und es mehrere Anläufe unsererseits bedurfte um die Rücküberweisung in Gang zu setzen. Des Weiteren brauchten wir Hilfe, da die Elektrizität in der Küche ausgefallen war und der Sicherungskasten nicht zu finden war. Auf diese Hilfe mussten wir mehrere Stunden warten. Ansonsten alles prima und durchaus weiterzuempfehlen.

Loved staying here, excellent property. Only two issues were many holes in the fence (our small dog escaped but luckily came back), we spent some time covering them with bricks and rocks and pizza boxes. Also bedroom off the family room was unbearably freezing at night, probably due to leaky sliding glass doors. Otherwise the place was gorgeous and spotless and stocked with everything you would need. Definitely would come back!

This is a nice home within driving distance of many tourist attractions. It was clean and well-maintained. Our only issue was that there was no queen- or king-sized bed in the primary suite of the home. A full-sized bed with a hard mattress is rough on two adults.

The property is spacious, quiet, and nicely decorated. We really enjoyed the large dining table and kitchen space. The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, and lots of dishes. The location is about a 15-minute drive to Cannery Row depending on traffic. One thing to be aware of is that the property management's cancellation policy differs from what is listed on Vrbo. It would be helpful to have the actual policy reflected in the listing.

Such a nice property and so clean! I loved the big open spaces in both living rooms to visit after our days touring Big Sur. Great location!

A bunch of us rented the house for a friend's wedding in Carmel. The house is exactly as listed in the description and really is beautiful. The large windows give you a 180 degree view. It's super convenient if you're flying in and out of Monterey airport. You can actually see the airport from the house. The only 'con', if you could even call it that, was the location was just OK. You are close enough to everything making it easy to travel and see nearby neighborhoods.

Super convenient location to Laguna Seca raceway and the Monterey Airport. Lots of space for the whole family to spread out. Good kitchen and comfortable living room areas (2 of them).

We really enjoyed our stay at the house. The rooms are just as they appear in the photos. The beds are comfy, the shower pressure is good and the view from the balcony nice. It's in a good location to get to many points around Monterey and near a grocery store.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was absolutely perfect for our stay. The interior lives much larger than the photos depict. The great table in the kitchen double as the ultimate card table. The location was not more than 15 minutes away from all of our destinations. We had two pickups at the airport - ten minutes round-trip! A fantastic home.

La Vista Portola worked very well for my group of 7 adults. The gathering rooms were spacious, the Mountain View was relaxing, and the neighboring hawk entertained us all week.

Great location, safe for small children (with adult supervision). Plenty of open space and several more private areas. Appreciated the abundance of soft towels. Third extra bathroom is tiny but is nice to have. Only thing I forgot to bring was a USB adapter for our phones.
