A Wild Coastline and Even Wilder Sealife
Known for beautifully undulating coastline attracting a wealth of wildlife, laidback Monterey is set on a small peninsula. Though now more famous for Monterey Jack cheese, it was once an important sardine fishing town. Some ex-canning factories now house galleries and shops on a street renamed Cannery Row after a novel by John Steinbeck. A museum and his former home in nearby Salinas can be visited.
The fantastic Monterey Bay Aquarium houses a fascinating range of local sealife, which is so prevalent here that you can often see seals basking on craggy beaches, or sea lions roaring away under piers in Fisherman’s Wharf. Whalewatching tours also depart from here.
South is the Monterey State Historic Park, site of historic buildings including Custom House and the Old Whaling Station with a path made from whalebone. To the east are a couple of Monterey hotels on the beach on Booking.com, and there are also several Monterey hotels with indoor pools.
Right by Monterey Peninsula Airport is one of the city’s 7 golf courses, and there are 3 golf courses near the Laguna Seca Raceway.
Whether you’re here for the Monterey Jazz Festival, or for driving the Big Sur Pacific coast road to the south, if you’re staying with kids, don’t forget to check out the Dennis the Menace Park.

Monterey was lovely, a great place to walk around and lots to see and do. We wish we had stayed longer. And it would also have been good to go to Carmel if we had stayed longer. The Dust Bowl brewery down near the harbour was great. (It's in between a main road and a car park so doesn't look brilliant from the outside but worth a visit!). The Fieldwork brewery on Munras Ave is also worth checking out, but only on a sunny day as it's outside seating only! The aquarium is supposed to be one of the best in the world but we were fairly underwhelmed.NicholasUnited Kingdom - 6.0Scored 6.0

The centre of the town is rather tacky & expensive but the National Park at Point Lobos is lovely, as is the coastal drive (or cycle) to Carmel. The Aquarium was somewhat disappointing and very overpriced inside. The small Art museum is worth a short visit. The dedicated, car free trail for pedestrians and cyclists is a nice idea.LucyIreland - 10Scored 10
Monterey is a great place to spend a few days.
Monterey is a great place to spend a few days. There is a lot to see and once you learn the one ways streets it is easy to get around. The wharf is fine, Cannery row is a tourist spot but it is fun and the aquarium is great. Food is very good in Monterey and Carmel.

Cannery Row is a bit of a tourist trap, but if you head away from the beach you quickly access the restaurants of Lighthouse Avenue, including Hula - Hawaian food. If I had my time again, I would have tried to stay nearer to the Acquariam, even as far west as Pacific Grove (technically the next town along), near the delights of Happy Girl Kitchen.AnnaUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Two night, great location.
Two night, great location. Although hotel dated it is comfortable, spacious, cleal and all services were excellent. Centre of everything yet quiet. Can accommodate everyone. Lots of beaches, walks, great food & activities.DympnaUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
I love the ocean.
I love the ocean. There are just so many great little beaches to visit. Monterey has so much Sea life too. We saw harbor seals, otters, elephant seals, too late for the Monarch Butterflys, tons of birds, just from the walking paths! We actually walked from Monterey to Pacific Grove. There are also loads of shops, and restaurants.JoanUnited States

- From € 390.15 per night9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 409 reviewsWhat a beautiful hotel! I chose this hotel for the location and I was not disappointed! Located on the water, in the heart of Monterey. We were easily able to walk around the town to fantastic restaurants, the aquarium and we enjoyed the beach right out in front of the hotel. Our room was not only comfortable but so cute with a great little bay window I enjoyed sitting in. And we loved the made to order breakfast that was delivered to our room each morning. I would highly recommend the Spindrift and look forward to staying again.
TrudyUnited States - From € 462.97 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 2,495 reviewsThe standout aspect of the Portola hotel and spa is definitely the pool and the fact that they allow dogs.. I felt like the location was a big bonus because you weren't in the middle of cannery row and you weren't out in the hinterlands like some of the other hotels in Monterey. The porters and most of the hotel staff are very nice. The lobby is lovely though they could have Happier music playing. It's weird to check into a hotel and they're playing wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot!AmandaUnited States

Great location, very walk able to cafes, restaurants, shops and amusements. Big clean room with a very comfortable bed and a huge spa like bathroom! It’s our anniversary so they have us a little treat to celebrate! Overall the hotel exceeded our expectations on every level! We’d happily come back again & recommend to friends!HannahUnited States

Gorgeous views from our ocean view rooms, the sound of crashing waves under the property all day long, marine life nature sounds, one of the most relaxing hotels I’ve ever been to! Restaurant location and quality was amazing too! Nice lounge and bar area to get together with family in the evening. Great central location for excursions around the area, very walkable.
MonikaUnited States - From € 365.97 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 1,321 reviewsThe location is awesome. Once you’re open your room’s door - you’re already in the Monterey downtown. It’s so joyful to walk in early morning along the ocean shore. We parked our car at the hotel parking earlier than our check in was, and enjoyed our visit to aquarium and good restaurants nearby. The facility is clean and updated, the breakfast is so decent. We’ll definitely come back to this hotel as guests!
