Monterey Plaza
400 Cannery Row, Monterey | (855) 421-0264, montereyplazahotel.com
Whether enjoying the Presidential Suite’s 500-square-foot sun deck with its whirlpool tub and 180-degree view of Monterey Bay or the hotel’s harbor- and ocean-view rooms perched over the water, the Monterey Plaza is the place to call home during a vacation—or staycation. Hop on a complimentary bicycle and explore the Peninsula on two wheels. Or stay inside and don’t even leave the plushy confines of the Plaza. Spa treatments, oceanfront restaurants, cocktails around the fire pit and specialty retail shops—like the Wine Experience, where visitors can custom blend their own bottles—provide something for all tastes.
