I ♥️ Monterey

I have stayed here 3-4 times over the years. I always asked for a room with a fireplace and I loved the room. Not an easy walk to the ocean and restaurants, but it's an easy drive, or nice daytime walk. I walked at night and it started raining, because I said it was so close. Oh well, but Monterey is amazing. I got my PADI Scuba certification there, vacationed there, it has great piers - commercial and the fishing industry pier. Both you will love visiting. And many places to see, Lovers Point, a big scuba diving bay. There is Santa Cruz and Capitola. Both worth a visit. Have fun if you pick Monterey for a vacation. Don't forget the Aquarium.

Had a great stay ...

Had a great stay here. They are truly dog-friendly and Jay at the front desk was wonderfully accommodating for a walk-in reservation late at night. Would definitely return!

Estéban Restaurant - We arrived at our reservation time ...

We arrived at our reservation time of 4:30 pm for the tapas happy hour and it did not disappoint! We were welcomed with a big smile and seated at an awesome table. We were greeted immediately and brought water and then our server Brenda came to our table and our service was excellent!!! She was very helpful and very polite and friendly. I am so glad we chose to dine here tonight. The oysters were salty and served with a lime juice that was out of this world and they do not serve raw oysters with crackers in this part of the US and this hit the spot. The charcuterie board finished the spot for a meal. The cream brûlée was excellent with cinnamon and orange. The wine was an absolute excellent choice for the whole dining experience. The dining room offers a fir place and an ambiance you cannot find anywhere else and the service staff is on top of your table with everything from water to keep your table clean. We will definitely be back. Thanks for a wonderful evening!!

Estéban Restaurant - Our service was great ...

Our service was great. The ambiance of this place is unique, two fireplaces one in and one outside. Being from the South I absolutely loved this and was sad to discover this after we were seated. The oysters were the perfect size but I keep forgetting that in the West they do not serve them with crackers. However, they were served with a lime juice concoction that was out of this world and made up for the missing crackers. Our charcuterie board had everything you could want to finish a bottle of wine. The cream brûlée was awesome. Parking was sufficient on the street. We will return. Thanks!!!
