Top San Carlos Beach - The Breakwater Hotel Reviews

Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"You can’t really beat the location. The staff was so helpful. Room service wasn’t amazing. But decent."

Hotel Abrego

10/10 Excellent

"We were pleasantly surprised at the lovely room, courteous staff and great location. We don't drink wine, but the wine vouchers were a nice touch. (We gifted them to some other travellers) My only issue was the fireplace worked intermittently and there was not enough counter space in the bathroom. All in all we would stay there the next time we are in Monterey and definitely will recommend the Abrego!"

Monterey Bay Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent front desk. We arrived early and were given a room. We were early enough so that it was the equivalent of an extra day. They even delivered a continental breakfast, which by the way each day’s breakfast was fresh and very very good."

"Breakfast is good"

The Monterey Hotel
