GermanyExcellent small B&B in the heart of Monterey. Absolutely charming owners, very pleasant afternoon snack and wine moment, good served breakfast. Extraordinary comfy room with jacuzzi within and deep sleep in the king size bed. View to the bay from the window.
Czech RepublicThe property is very unique. If you are looking for a modern chic hotel then this is not for you. You are treated as one of the family and it is a great place to mingle with other guests.
United KingdomQuirky hotel. Lovely room with a view of the sea. We really enjoyed meeting other guests for an informal drink at 6pm and also at the lovely breakfast.
United KingdomFantastic historic property providing great hospitality and really well located just a short walk from Cannery Row and the aquarium. Comfy rooms and delicious inventive breakfasts. The complementary afternoon cookies and early evening canapés and wine is a really nice touch. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. One of the best B&B's I've ever stayed in, would definitely stay here again next time I visit Monterey.
United KingdomA beautiful warm cosy home , converted to a bed and breakfast! A wholesome breakfast served with loads of love . The hosts were very helpful in helping us plan our days in Monterrey!!
IndiaA small family run business, the personal touch from people who care about their customers. Quiet room, complimentary wine and canapés in the late afternoon was a nice touch. Their take on breakfast was enjoyable.
United KingdomI loved everything. It was like living in a fairytale. The place is beatiful, hosts are charming, location is great!
FinlandExcellent location, a short walk to the Cannery Row area and handy for Fishermans Wharf and Pebble Beach. Lovely, characterful corner property, set in attractive gardens, with limited off-street parking Period and themed (Alice) decor and furnishings - ground floor fully accessible to guests. The owners, Rick & Suzanne, and Dorothy, the main assistant, are very welcoming, open, and friendly. The informal evening wine and hors d’oeuvres reception (included) for guests was very novel and generous, encouraging guests to meet each other and the owners. The breakfast is imaginatively and well prepared and served, and, in our experience, unique.

Host Information
Set on a half-acre of fanciful gardens, our 1911 Craftsman bed and breakfast has fabulous views of Monterey Bay. Named after the Lewis Carroll poem Jabberwocky, the ambiance of our inn is light-hearted, warmly comfortable and decidedly upscale. In the evening, join us for wine and hors d'oeuvres on the enclosed sun porch. Here our guests mingle and discuss the day's trending topics and of course their dinner plans. Ready to settle in for the night, you'll find comfy and inviting historic beds with cozy sheets and down comforters. Three romantic rooms include Jacuzzi tubs and fireplaces. Wake up to a striking sunrise or perhaps the soft sounds of the bay muted by the morning marine layer. Fresh coffee and a scrumptious breakfast await you. Lively conversation and shared adventures make it easy to plan your day's journey.
After twenty-seven years in the Hotel business Suzanne and I (Rick) discovered the fun and joy of the Monterey peninsula. Originally from New Orleans, our family moved to California in 2005 and we have lived on the Peninsula since 2009. In taking over the inn we have decided to make beautiful Monterey our permanent home and, we look forward to welcoming you and making your stay a magical adventure! - Rick and Suzanne
The Jabberwock is five short blocks above John Steinbeck's Cannery Row. Visit Doc Rickett's Lab, the Monterey Bay Aquarium, or perhaps a wine tasting room. Old Fisherman's Wharf is just around the corner and there are over 25 restaurants in the area. The Monterey/Pacific Grove recreation trail, offers a wonderful walking, jogging, and biking path with stirring views of the bay and its marine life. Perhaps you will discover the tide pools of Asilomar beach or kayak at Lover's Point. Enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells while pondering the history and lives lived here. Watch for a whale…there she blows! Or explore further to Carmel-by-the-Sea, Pebble Beach, Point Lobos and Big Sur.
