Be sure to take a walk down Oceanview Boulevard, a vibrant area where there's always something to keep you busy. Both tourists and locals flock to this renowned strip.

This public thoroughfare is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Pacific Grove. But Oceanview Boulevard isn't the area's only drawcard. Monterey Bay Aquarium, Fisherman's Wharf, and Carmel Beach are some other interesting attractions close by.

Carriage House Inn exceeded our expectations in every way. Michelle was beyond welcoming and responsive to every need. The room was spotless and all snacks and Perrier water as well as coffee and tea were complimentary. The breakfast was also complimentary, made to order, and delivered at your specified time hot and fresh to your room. Incredible. Waters and sparkling apple cider replenished each day, as were the basket of snacks. The cherry on the cake was a lovely and extensive happy hour, with the amazing Kevin hosting, every afternoon at 5. Wine, apps, fresh baked cookies and meeting the other guests….it was just lovely. I have never been anywhere as customer service oriented. Everything about Carriage House was flawless. 10 out of 10.
