Dispelling AT&T Mythology

by – Jan Leasure, Managing Broker, MontereyRentals.com

As we approach the 2022 AT&T golf tournament, rumors regarding home rentals for the event persist. Yes, there are a few outliers out there – homes on or near the Pebble Beach Golf Links can rent for tens of thousands of dollars to sponsors who want a place to entertain clients and to other big spenders. But the vast majority of homes available during the tournament rent for only slightly higher prices than their regular nightly rates. And there will be some, both inside and outside the Pebble Beach gates, that don’t rent at all.

The event was originally known as the Bing Crosby National Pro-Amateur, or more casually, the Crosby Clambake, and numerous A-list celebrities and golfers participated. There was always a mad scramble for accommodations for the event. Unfortunately, the rumors of “what my neighbor got for the Pro-Am” have grown as the years have gone by. The AT&T Corporation became the title sponsor in1986, and interest in the tournament by the A-listers waned.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s still loads of fun. But be suspicious of what you hear about rental rates, and don’t get your expectations up by over-estimating the bucks you can put in your pocket by renting for the AT&T week. And if anyone asks, there are still homes and hotel rooms available, a week before the event!

photo_cbts-storybook-cottage_7661

Live the dream—or in this case, a fairytale—in this Carmel classic. Straight out of a storybook, this thatched roof cottage has old-world charm outside… and every modern convenience inside.

The cozy living room, with diamond pane windows and a fireplace, steps down to a skylit dining room with a wall of windows framing exquisite canyon and mountain views.

1300 sq. ft. | 2 Bedroom | 2 Bath | Sleeps 4 buy kamagra jelly online uk

The kitchen has granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a convection oven with a four burner gas cooktop (but with all Carmel’s legendary restaurants so close by you may not want to cook at all}.

Outdoors, sip your morning coffee, dine al fresco, or toast the end of a perfect day on the spacious deck with a gas barbecue, a teak dining table, and forever views.

Sleep on imported Italian CalKing mattresses in one of the two private and serene bedrooms on the lower level. The Master suite has walk-in closet and a private bath with distressed cabinetry and a combination tub/shower. The second guest room, in shades of cream and lime green, is just steps from the hall bath, with a stone countertop and a generous walk-in shower.

The location is amazing: across the street from the historic Carmel Mission, bordered by Mission Trails Park, it’s just a 10-minute walk to Carmel’s best beaches and a short drive to shops, galleries and restaurants.
