Because we lived in Monterey the first year we were married, this location holds a special place in our hearts. To celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary we decided to stay in Monterey for a month. The condo on Ocean Avenue was perfect. Other than the noisy and busy street, the location was perfect. We took our morning walks each day on the trail overlooking Monterey Bay. We were able to walk to Fisherman's Wharf daily, and have coffee in Pacific Grove at any number of coffee shops or restaurants. The weekly Farmer's Market in Monterey was wonderful with the great selection of fresh produce.We suggest that you consider that there is a 3-day Triathlon mid-September with the finish line immediately in front of the condo. With microphones and loud speakers, we were awoken early on a daily basis during the event. Many athletes as well as curious visitors clogged the streets which made it hard to maneuver. Because Ocean Avenue is a busy street, it is noisy with a lot of traffic.The condo was clean and nicely decorated. There is no need to bring extra towels as there were enough. We did have to buy sharp knives as those in the condo we very dull.All in all, with the fabulous views and easy access to Pacific Grove and Monterey, we were quite pleased with the property. The on-site parking was a bonus.
