Monterey, CA: The Cradle of California's Maritime Legacy

Monterey, California, is a coastal gem steeped in maritime history and natural beauty, where the Pacific Ocean meets centuries of cultural heritage. Once the capital of Alta California under Spanish and Mexican rule, the city holds a pivotal place in the state’s historical narrative. Monterey Bay, with its deep blue waters, has long been the lifeblood of the area, attracting fishermen, explorers, and marine life alike. Visitors to this iconic destination can experience landmarks like Cannery Row, immortalized by John Steinbeck, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, a world-renowned marine sanctuary that echoes the region’s deep connection to the sea.

The city’s historic district reflects Monterey’s layered past, with adobe buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries standing as testaments to its early colonial roots. Today, Monterey thrives as a haven for both cultural and natural exploration. Scenic drives along the rugged coastline of the famed 17-Mile Drive, whale-watching expeditions, and visits to the rich tidal ecosystems of Point Lobos offer a captivating experience. Monterey is not just a place of beauty; it’s a living narrative of California’s evolution, bridging the past with the present in every tide that touches its shores.

Spring Break Getaway I love this hotel! From the moment we walked in we were met with friendly staff and breathtaking views of the ocean. Vivian checked us in and made us feel welcome. She also told us about the e bikes available with 2 hours free for guests and provided us with helmets. Owen took care of us as well throughout our stay. Our room was comfortable and updated beautifully. We also swam in the pool and relaxed in the hot tub. We will definitely return.

Family stay with toddler in April! We were looking for a place to stay that was family friendly during the day and somewhere we can relax in the evening and this place was it! First off, I called to confirm our Ocean View room and possible rollaway bed for our child and spoke with Dustin. He was extremely helpful and made sure everything including early check in (due to the availability) was ready for us upon arrival. From that point on, our stay included meeting so many people who worked there that not only were helpful and friendly, but truly enjoyed working there- must be the beautiful ocean views! The room was updated, its on the more cozier/smaller size, but our huge window overlooked the ocean and you can literally hear the waves throughout the property. They have been updating spots, such as the sauna and cold plunge area which is set to come soon. Upon arrival, we were reminded of the $50 parking rate and the $25 resort fee. The surprise was we also received $75 credit for wine and non alcoholic beverages at the bar for their very own complementary happy hour from 3-10pm. I especially enjoyed their lovely smores kits they would give out after 7pm to use at the many fire pits overlooking the water, a very nice touch for everyone! I would say the only suggestion I would make, which I brought up while I was there, was that there needs to be more coffee available, not just the pods in the rooms. There is a restaurant on the 4th floor, but sometimes they can get busy, but a quick drink would have been clutch. I was told that during the weekends they do provide coffee in the lobby, hopefully they can extend that to the weekdays at well. We are definitely looking forward to sharing our experience with our family and friends, and hopefully coming back to stay soon. The hotel is literally a 6 minute drive from downtown, but in my opinion is much more relaxing and beautiful. I would like to especially send my gratitude as well to Owen, Alex, and Vivian at the front desk who were always so kind and ready to assist with anything! It was always a pleasure seeing them! Dennis at the restaurant in the evening was so kind and allowed us to have a very delicious meal, much appreciated!

Great trip My family had an amazing vacation there! I was initially concerned because of all the negative reviews, but I suspect most of them were from before Marriott took over the facility. Fortunately, nothing bad happened to us; everyone was so kind, and the location was incredible! The only thing we missed was our dog, who weighs over 50 lbs. My daughter plans to put him on a diet, so hopefully, he'll be able to join us on our next trip
