What stands out in Pacific Grove?
Pacific Grove's largest departure from the 34-region median is price: $663 a night is the highest median near-term quote of the 34 regions, against a median of $272. With 60 near-term quotes in all, no single bedroom class in Pacific Grove reaches the 30 quotes a percentile needs, so the price by size is not reported.

- 37.6% of Pacific Grove's bookable entire homes ask for a minimum stay of 30 nights or more, against a 34-region median of 15.7%, and its median minimum stay is 3 nights.
- October was 42.0% open when Inside Airbnb collected Pacific Grove on 30 September 2026, against a 34-region median of 51.2%.
What is the listed nightly price of an Airbnb in Pacific Grove?
The listed nightly price is the asking price of a near-term stay at a bookable entire home, net of host discounts and before taxes and fees: what a guest was quoted, not what a guest paid.
UpRev's count puts the median near-term quoted price of a bookable entire home at $663 a night; the middle half of quotes ran from $495 to $1,036, and the top tenth started at $1,178. 2-bedroom homes are the largest group, 37.6% of its 170 bookable homes, and 15.0% of its near-term quotes carried a host discount.
| Bedrooms (of 170 homes) | Bookable homes | Share of homes | Homes with a near-term quote | Quotes with a discount | 25th percentile | Median | 75th percentile | 90th percentile |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

170 bookable entire homes, 60 with a near-term quote; the percentiles are of that quote's nightly price, net of host discounts and before the quote's tax and fee lines; too few homes for a price percentile, which needs 30 near-term quotes: studios (fewer than 10 bookable homes), 1-bedroom homes (10 with a near-term quote), 2-bedroom homes (22 with a near-term quote), 3-bedroom homes (23 with a near-term quote), homes with 4 or more bedrooms (12 bookable homes, fewer than 10 with a near-term quote); snapshot of 30 September 2026, collected the same day.

How many nights are still open to book in Pacific Grove?
Open nights are the calendar nights a host still offers to book, as Inside Airbnb collected them. A night that is not open may be booked or blocked by the host, and the calendar does not say which, so a low share open is not proof of demand on its own.
As Inside Airbnb collected it on 30 September 2026, UpRev counts 42.0% of October nights at its bookable homes still open to book, 55.2% of November nights and 69.0% of December nights; a night that is not open may be booked or blocked by the host, and the file does not say which. For December, 1-bedroom homes had the most nights open (76.8%) and 2-bedroom homes the fewest (61.4%).
| Bedrooms (of 170 homes) | October nights open | November nights open | December nights open |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 42.6% | 56.7% | 76.8% |
| 2 | 39.1% | 53.9% | 61.4% |
| 3 | 41.1% | 56.7% | 73.3% |
| 4+ | 53.2% | 51.1% | 69.9% |
| All | 42.0% | 55.2% | 69.0% |

What is the estimated occupancy of an Airbnb in Pacific Grove?
Estimated occupancy is Inside Airbnb's own review-based model, run by UpRev with each region's average stay. It is an estimate built from reviews, not a count of bookings, and it reads low because a review follows check-out.
Inside Airbnb's review-based model, run by UpRev with the 3-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, gives its bookable homes an estimated occupancy of 31.1% on average over the 91 nights from 1 July to 29 September 2026; the median home sat at 26.4%, 15.9% of homes reached the model's 70% cap, and because reviews follow check-out the figure reads low. By size, 2-bedroom homes had the highest estimated occupancy (36.7%) and homes with 4 or more bedrooms the lowest (20.5%).
| Bedrooms (of 170 homes) | Bookable homes | Reviews in the window | Estimated occupancy, mean | Estimated occupancy, median | Homes at the 70% cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 34 | 126 | 28.7% | 22.0% | 8.8% |
| 2 | 64 | 358 | 36.7% | 36.3% | 25.0% |
| 3 | 58 | 232 | 29.6% | 26.4% | 12.1% |
| 4+ | 12 | 32 | 20.5% | 5.5% | 8.3% |
| All | 170 | 748 | 31.1% | 26.4% | 15.9% |
Estimated occupancy of the 170 bookable homes, 1 July to 29 September 2026 (91 nights): each review in the window counts as two stays of 3 nights, or of the listing's minimum stay if longer, capped at 70%; an estimate, not counted bookings; no row for studios: fewer than 10 bookable homes each; snapshot of 30 September 2026, collected the same day.

How does Pacific Grove compare with the 34 short-term rental (STR) markets in the data?
UpRev's benchmark sets the region's 170 bookable homes beside the median of the 34 US regions Inside Airbnb covers, each read from its own snapshot of 14-30 September 2026; the regions' calendars were read on different days, so the shares of nights open compare calendars at different distances from each month.

How does UpRev count Pacific Grove?
Bookable entire homes, 170 of them, from Inside Airbnb's snapshot of 30 September 2026, collected the same day. Estimated occupancy uses the 3-night average stay Inside Airbnb sets for the region, with which the model reproduces Inside Airbnb's own per-listing estimate on 274 of 274 listings in this snapshot and 269 of 269 in its June snapshot of 14 June 2026; too few homes for a price percentile, which needs 30 near-term quotes: studios (fewer than 10 bookable homes), 1-bedroom homes (10 with a near-term quote), 2-bedroom homes (22 with a near-term quote), 3-bedroom homes (23 with a near-term quote), homes with 4 or more bedrooms (12 bookable homes, fewer than 10 with a near-term quote). How we count: see the method page.
