I thought I had seen most of Pacific Grove but being able to now tour the town on a bike instead of walking and driving was a whole new experience. Biking to the little town muesum is a must, The food... More

We stay at this place once a year, and it's flat-out schizophrenic. On the plus side, the rooms are large, the location is matchless, the grounds, pool, and hot tub are great, there's a charming fireplace that runs on a switch in our room, and free full breakfast and dinner are included. On the down side, the place can be... More

We had a king room with fireplace and balcony. The room was a great value at $109 on a weekend and the room was quite nice. It was a little shabby under the surface but definitely had it's redeeming qualities--the breakfast was awesome and the staff courteous, and the room, while a little worn, was spotless.

This facility caters to families with children visiting the popular Monterey Aquarium. This motel is a bit worn out, ready for a major overhaul. Our stay wasn't bad by any means. If you are looking of a quiet weekend, this may not be the place for you.

When you first get here, it is actually confusing cause the cottages and the motel rooms are separate from each other so we couldn't find the main office at first.

The Lighthouse Lodge is a fantastic place to stay. My husband and I stayed there for 5 weeks during January and February to get away from the cold of Michigan. The staff is amazing! The food is fabulous! The rooms are huge and extremely comfortable! We can't wait to return next winter!
