The Charles Pacific Grove

Nestled amidst California’s stunning Monterey Peninsula,  The Charles is a sanctuary of coastal beauty, small-town charm, and refined hospitality.

Just minutes from Monterey, Carmel-by-the-Sea, and the iconic 17-Mile Drive, Pacific Grove offers the best of California’s Central Coast—from world-class golf at Pebble Beach to whale watching along the bay, and the vibrant marine life of the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Whether guests seek sun-soaked beach strolls, scenic hikes, art galleries, or fine dining, The Charles places them in the heart of it all.

But what truly sets The Charles Pacific Grove apart is our commitment to personalized, inclusive hospitality. We believe every guest deserves an experience tailored to their interests and personality, which is why we offer customized itineraries upon request. Whether you’re an outdoor adventurer, a history buff, a wine enthusiast, or simply looking to relax by the coast, we’ll curate a bespoke guide to Pacific Grove and beyond, ensuring every moment of your stay feels truly yours.

At The Charles, inclusivity isn’t just a philosophy—it’s woven into everything we do.
