"Amazing experience over a long weekend. Lots of activities and things to do in and in and around the ranch. The rooms are great, actually more like an apartment with living room, terrace, and walk in closet. And, it's the most dog friendly hotel we've ever stayed in! We could take our labradoodle even to the very nice Valley Kitchen restaurant.!"

Monterey Bay Inn

Monterey Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I recently had a wonderful stay at the Monterey Bay Inn, and I can’t emphasize enough how fantastic the location is. Nestled right by the waterfront, the hotel offers stunning views that enhance the overall experience. One of the biggest perks is its proximity to the renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium, which is just a short walk away. Exploring the aquarium was a highlight of my trip, and being so close made it incredibly convenient. Additionally, the surrounding area is filled with charming shops and delightful dining options, all within easy walking distance. Whether you’re in the mood for fresh seafood or a cozy café, you’ll find plenty to choose from. The inn itself is beautifully appointed, featuring comfortable rooms that provide a relaxing retreat after a day of exploring. The staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met during my stay. In summary, the Monterey Bay Inn combines a breathtaking location with comfort and convenience. It’s perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the best of Monterey, making it a top choice for travelers!"
