Things to do in Monterey
Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to be a guest at The Lodge at Pebble Beach to enjoy the fabulous Casa Palmero Spa. They don’t advertise much, which makes it feel like a private club, but with a phone call you could book yourself into one of their super relaxation packages and let your cares disappear. My fave is the Red Flower Ritual – scrubbed with ginger and bamboo, polished with cherry blossom and rice and hydrated with rose, camelia and plum and finished with a massage using wild lime silk oil. The lounge areas for the spa are so beautiful that I could happily stay there all day, reading a book and napping in the sun like a cat. Don’t forget, if you have a spa session booked, when you come through the gates for the 17 Mile Drive, just tell them and they’ll wave you in without the normal fee.

Monterey is one of the most romantic places in the state with quaint B&B’s and inns in Carmel and Pacific Grove. A local company called Romantic Room Designs can decorate your hotel room for a wedding anniversary, proposal, birthday or getaway. They can even build you a bonfire on Carmel Beach.
