“This B&B, a restored 1911 Craftsman cottage, struck me as a particularly charming option in Monterey; the location is superb, placing guests within walking distance of both Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium. With uniquely themed breakfasts and a half-acre of gardens, it elevates a stay beyond simple lodging, creating memorable experiences. It's a place where historic charm meets modern comfort.”
