Set in one of Northern California's most scenic locations and perched on the water at the quiet end of historic Cannery Row, the Monterey Bay Inn is perfect for a unique ocean getaway in the middle of natural beauty and an area teeming with marine life. Combining sleek, stylish décor and a coastal setting in John Steinbeck country, the inn is close to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Fisherman's Wharf, lively restaurants, eclectic shops and various recreational activities. Guests will stay seven miles from Carmel by the Sea, six miles from Monterey Peninsula Airport, and 22 miles from Big Sur and the National Steinbeck Center. Guests can start their mornings out with complimentary breakfasts in their rooms and then get help from the hotel's staff on tours, wine tastings and day trips. Although the Monterey Bay Inn skips on having its own restaurant, guests can find plenty of dining options close to the hotel. In addition to private balconies, the Monterey Bay's 47 guestrooms feature king size beds, feather beds, CD players, coffeemakers and bathrobes. From their room balconies, guests can use binoculars provided by the inn to spot otters and whales romping in the ocean. The Monterey Bay Inn is the kind of place where vacationers will leave with the sounds of the surf echoing in their minds and the scent of invigorating ocean air tickling their nostrils. &nbsp
