This nautically-themed spot features bedroom furniture made from actual boats — and it's darn cozy.

In old town Monterey, a short drive to Cannery Row, the Aquarium and Carmel.

Just as welcoming and cozy as it was when it opened in 1929, though we’re glad they’ve since added free WiFi.

If it’s in Carmel-by-the-Sea, it best be by the sea. It is. One block.

Way easy to get around, close to Highways 1, 68 and 218.

Rise & shine with the plentiful on-the-house breakfast (a hot entrée, freshly baked goodies & more!) served in the inviting Coach Room.

Mere blocks to gorgeous beaches, the butterfly sanctuary and the lighthouse.

Surf the internet with free WiFi, or drive 5 minutes to the beach for the real thing.

Oh-so-serene beachfront locale is your front-row seat for to-die-for sunsets.

Directly on the Pacific just north of the peninsula, so you can play in the surf and with some local residents (like, say, seals).

In-room Keurigs, WiFi, HBO, microwaves, fridges — yeah, we see no reason to leave either.

Motel-style layout with basic but clean and comfy rooms.

New owners have reimagined the former Carmel Village Inn, creating an inspiring modern boutique.

Friday nights, the Sunset Music Series is where it’s at, starring local musicians all summer long.

Not a lot of frills, because you don't always need 'em.

Welcome wine from Bernardus' own vineyard starts your stay right. Complimentary in-room wine bar's even righter.
