    I was literally just there this weekend and stayed at Hofsas House! It was my first time in Carmel and Monterey and I’m in love! I cannot wait to go back and this time do the Aquarium (we didn’t have enough time). Monterey had the most amazing crepe place – so good!

    I have been trying to convince my husband that Monterey is the perfect place for a babymoon! I love see in dog friendly places on here. I would love to visit the aquarium and do the 17 mile drive!

    Hi Lauren! I’d love to try the Wildcoast Restaurant and Sushi Bar. Also, I hear great things about the farmers markets and would definitely check them out. Thanks for posting this giveaway.

    Wow! What an amazing giveaway! I’ve been to Monterey twice since moving to California about ten years ago, but both times have been girls’ trips. I’d love to go back with my husband and daughter. I know they’d love the Aquarium and Cannery Row. I definitely want to drive more of the coastline and the 17 mile drive looks like a great way to see so much!
