I have a conference in Monterey in May and wished to book my room early (January). Called this AM (after 9:00 AM their time) and had the most frustrating experience. Requested availability for the dates in May and clerk first asked "How much do you want to pay?" What? I then was more specific, King, two queens or twins and... More

Keeping this review short as we really dont want to remember this place. Room was clean, but smelled funny. But room was not sound insulated well. We heard EVERYTHING. Evening appetizers were disappointedly Mediocre. Served veggie sticks, cheese, dip and cheap wines. New Innkeeper did not socialize. Website states a gourmet breakfast but it was no where near gourmet. It... More

Last weekend we decided a two-hour drive for a getaway weekend would be perfect. We love the coast, golf, art, and good food so decided on the Monterey Bay area. We found a new Home Away from Home!! The Inn at 213 Seventeen Mile Drive was just wonderful! We were offered the new lower winter rates which was quite a... More

We had been planning this trip for nearly a year - 3 weeks driving through California....we run a busy b&b in France & pride ourselves on offering a breakfast with a difference so consequently we tried to stay in places run along similar lines. No complaints about the property at all - it is as beautiful as previous reviewers have... More

After reading the reviews we were certainly excited to spend a night at this Inn. We have no complaints about our room, however we must have had a new or substitute innkeeper. The appetizers meager at best. The breakfast was completely a joke. We were served a small bowl of old grapes and maybe 3 pieces of watermelon. Along with... More

We love staying at B&B's and were pleased with the Inn. The staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions for what to see and do in the area. We stayed 3 nights in the Blue Heron room which has a sitting area with a bay view (through the trees). The bed was comfortable and we slept well except for some... More

I have stayed here on business one night a year. Over the past few years, I have run into a new owner/innkeeper every time. This year, I arrived to find out that the chef "could not" accommodate my request for an earlier breakfast (something that the staff had always been able to figure out in previous years... they had served...

Great find. Wasn't too sure when first searching, but after talking to one of the owners on the phone and explaining the reason for our trip (my wife's arrival to the US). She went out of her way to recommend not only the perfect room for us, but the best places to go to see the wildlife and to check... More

We loved 213 Seventeen Mile Drive. The Craftsman style home is lovely and the rooms are so beautifully furnished (we stayed in Blue Heron). The food is fantastic, and chef is so interesting, having lots of fun stories to relate. The rooms are so clean, and the Pacific Grove air is fresh and cool. The Inn is near restaurants and... More
