By Luigi DeMarco

At any and every time of the year, Monterey is a dazzling place to vacation, set in a beautiful location surrounded by pine and eucalyptus trees. As varied as the natural location is, Monterey hotels come in a variety to match. Whether you are looking for budget or luxury, there is something in Monterey for every wallet.

From fine art galleries in nearby Carmel, to the incredible natural beauty of the coast, and some of the best restaurants anywhere, Monterey has a lot to offer everyone. Whether you prefer the great outdoors or shopping, Monterey has plenty to offer everyone. And Monterey hotels have been catering to visitors with all budgets and preferences for years.

Music, with the Monterey Jazz Festival, is one of the key yearly attractions to this area. If your vacation plans include this event, look to stay on or near Fremont Avenue. There are many hotels here that vary in price from as low as $45 on up. For comfort, as well as a wide variety of amenities such as continental breakfast, coffee, HBO and local calls, you might try the Econo Lodge Monterey Fairgrounds. Also offering extra service and comfort is the family owned El Castell Motel with free wireless, continental breakfast and parking. This is also located very close to the Fairgrounds.

Known around the world, from Toledo to Tokyo, the Monterey Bay Aquarium is a must see attraction for all visitors. Monterey hotels abound in the downtown area, as well as along Steinbecks Cannery Row. InterContinental The Clement Monterey could not be more convenient for Aquarium visitors, as it is located just next door and just steps away from Cannery Row.

The area around the Aquarium and Cannery Row is a historic district and within easy walking distance are other Monterey attractions, as well as some of the best restaurants anywhere. Additional options for Monterey hotels in this area are the Holiday Inn Express and the Otter Inn.

Beach lovers will love La Quinta Inn Monterey, both comfortable and affordable and, better yet, just a short walk to the beach. Adjacent to the Monterey bike and walking trail, this Monterey hotel offers lake view rooms as well as free wireless Internet and much more.

Another common draw to Monterey is the number of golf courses in the area. Best known is the Pebble Beach Golf Course with its famous tournament. However, there are also the Del Monte Golf Course, the United States Navy Golf Course, and the course at Monterey Peninsula College. The avid golfer can consider Americas Best Value Inn, as it is located steps away from these courses.

If dining is the activity of choice, one can choose just about any location in Monterey. But downtown, the restaurant choices abound and the Monterey Hotel is a great location for all manner of gastronomic options. Options range from fine Italian dining to the more casual Lighthouse Avenue where one can try a seafood burrito; the variety is endless and all diners will leave satisfied.

The charm and natural beauty of Monterey cannot be matched anywhere in the world. Regardless of your interests, tastes, or personal needs, Monterey is a great choice for your next vacation and you will find among the many Monterey hotels one that is just right for you. - 33386
