The Monterey Peninsula & the Big Sur Coast
Frommer's California 2006
Author: Matthew Poole

 

With the amenities of a modern hotel and the casual atmosphere of a B&B, the four-room Pleasure Point Inn has the right combination of everything you want in a romantic coastal getaway: a beautiful ocean view overlooking Monterey Bay, a quiet neighborhood location, contemporary design and décor, and a rooftop deck that you will never want to leave. Basically, it's the seaside vacation house you've always wanted. It's named for the Pleasure Point beach and surf break that's right across the street, where local long-boarders provide viewing entertainment from sunrise to sunset. Each guest room is impeccably clean and outfitted with custom furnishings, wood flooring, hand-painted tiles, private bathrooms, down comforters, a gas fireplace, and private entrances. An expanded continental breakfast is serviced in the oceanview dining/lounge area (I spotted a grey whale while munching on a bagel); after breakfast, guests can stroll the paved coastal path down to Capitola, walk to the beach, or relax on the sunny rooftop deck (top-side toys include an eight-person hot tub, chaise lounge chairs, and surround-sound music).
