Last weekend my husband and I had a couples getaway. Thanks to a giveaway I won, we got to spend the night at The Clement Monterey, an InterContinental Hotels & Resorts hotel on the famous Cannery Row. Although the area is an hour trip from home, it’s definitely a “stay-cation” worth making!
With restaurants, wine tasting, shopping, and sight-seeing all within walking distance, park your car and have the weekend getaway without stress!The luxurious hotel expands over both sides of Cannery Row, many rooms, suites, some with fireplaces and some overlooking the ocean. We were lucky to be upgraded to a ocean view room that was amazing and the sound of the waves crashing all night long was blissful!
Enjoy outdoor fireplaces over-looking the ocean (see below photo at the bottom) with a cocktail from the adjacent C Restaurant and Bar.
Even if you do bring the kids, The Clement offers…
* On-site VIP Kids Club with baby sitting services and organized activities.
* Children’s state of the art fitness equipment, flat screen TVs, video games and enriching Monterey exploration materials.
* Opportunity to explore Monterey area and participate in kid-tested crafts, games and adventures.
* Baby-Sitting
In the room, comfort, romance, and enjoyment is priority. There’s a stocked mini-bar in the cabinet, and a bottle of a local wine (for a price) near the fabulous 37 inch TV.
Up-to-date technology sees an alarm clock/radio for your iPod! The sound is fabulous!
Enjoy a good book…
A relaxing bath…
..or get to work with the in-room internet connection (a fee)…
Small touches like the city mascot Sea Otter stuffed animal (available for purchase,
Zen Garden, Sand Rake,
bath robes and slippers, make this hotel your home away from home!
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights, enjoy entertainment in the Bar lounge and in the Reading Room area.
Just below our room was a ballroom that was hosting a wedding reception, the beauty of it was memorable! And, though we didn’t use them, there is a whirlpool, pool, and gym right on site for your family’s needs!
Next time you head to the Central Coast of California, stop by magnificent Monterey and stay at The Clement from $169.00/night, it’s worth every penny. I can’t wait to stay there again, I know you will not be disappointed!
