This large, rustic resort is nestled within pine and cypress trees on 23 acres and is adjacent to the Del Monte Golf Course. Some of its many resort activity offerings include Ping-Pong, two swimming pools and whirlpools, tennis, golf, and bicycle rentals. But if the touristy thing is more your speed, downtown Monterey is about a mile away.
