My wife and I ...

My wife and I spent the last two nights of our honeymoon at the Spindrift Inn, and we were absolutely blown away by the experience. When we arrived, the staff informed us that they had upgraded our room. Look at the photos of the hotel - this is exactly what it looks like, yet the photos somehow don't do it justice - our room was STUNNING. When we walked in, we found a chilled bottle of champagne waiting for us on a table next to an unbelievable view of the Pacific Ocean. They had also placed a hand-written note next to the champagne congratulating us on our marriage and wishing us a wonderful honeymoon. I had mentioned when booking that we were celebrating our honeymoon, but I never expected such thoughtful touches. We literally didn't leave the room for the next two hours. We just sat together on the window seat, sipping champagne, watching the ocean just outside our window while the fireplace crackled beside us. It felt unreal. My wife actually cried when she saw the room because she was so happy and overcome — and, frankly, that’s about the only kind of crying a husband ever wants to cause. For a man who isn't a natural planner, those tears were perfect on so many levels. Yes, this is a pricey place, but it was absolutely worth it. Everything exceeded our expectations. The staff wasn’t just professional and competent; they were genuinely warm, helpful, and friendly throughout our stay. If you're looking for a romantic getaway or celebrating something special, I cannot recommend the Spindrift Inn enough, and if anyone from the Spindrift Inn is reading this review, please let me take one more opportunity to offer a genuine THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Y'all are awesome!!

Fantastic! Will definitely be going again!

The staff welcomed us warmly and took care of the car and luggage. The room was absolutely lovely, sparkling clean, and had everything we needed. The LOCATION is perfect, directly over the beach with magnificent views of the bay and town. Right in the middle of Cannery Row, restaurants and shops at our fingertips. The restaurant downstairs that delivered room service was efficient and the food was delicious. Can't think of a complaint!

My husband and I ...

My husband and I stayed at the Spindrift hotel in Monterey to celebrate my birthday in April. Upon arrival we were greeted by the most wonderful staff. Diana from reception and Alex from valet took such wonderful care of us from check in to check out. The room was quite honestly breathtaking.. the views were like no other. We also loved the very special touch of the Wine and Cheese reception every day from 4:30pm- 6:00pm The location and views of the hotel, the charm and cleanliness, and as mentioned the helpfulness and personal touch of the staff made our stay truly special. We won’t forget it! Shan & Shane

My family and I ...

My family and I stayed for 2 nights for my birthday and this was by far the best hotel experience we've ever had. The staff was so friendly and attentive and the views were out of this world. We had our own beach area right next to our room which was heavenly. Will be staying again.

... was well worth it! ...

This hotel was a splurge but it was well worth it! The view and the ambiance was wonderful. The location was perfect for exploring the Cannery area of Monterey. I almost wished for a rainy day so we could have had more to time to sit by the fireplace and read. A lovely well maintained classic hotel. Not only were we delivered a continental breakfast but had a long stemmed rose placed on our table.

The room is beautiful, and the staff are so kind. I love the experience of having breakfast served on a silver tray. Being so close to everything is a unique experience as well, and I highly recommend it
