"This classic, though renovated, resort sits atop the windswept sand dunes of Monterey Bay’s coastline, and it neighbor is the National Marine Sanctuary. It feels timeless, and a million miles away, though it's a quick drive to downtown Monterey. The beach bungalows offer panoramic views of the Pacific and salty ocean air drifting right into your room. You can’t get any closer to sleeping on the beach than this." - Ana Kamin, Jenna Scatena
