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. Known as “Butterfly Town, USA,” Pacific Grove is where rugged shorelines meet gentle sea breezes, historic Victorian homes line quiet streets, and the Pacific stretches endlessly toward the horizon.

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.

 

The Grey Whale Inn

Something special has taken shape at The Grey Whale Inn and you can be among the first to stay!

Thoughtfully restored spaces, refined design, and subtle nods to the past come together to create a relaxed coastal retreat in the heart of Fort Bragg.

Stay just blocks from Glass Beach, a block from the beloved Skunk Train (don’t forget to wave), and moments from downtown shops and cafés – perfect for slow mornings, spontaneous adventures, and sunset walks along the Mendocino Coast.

As we continue to thoughtfully enhance the property during our soft opening, we are delighted to welcome guests and share this new chapter with you.

SCP Seven4One Hotel

At SCP Seven4One Hotel, we combine coastal charm with eco-conscious design to create a stay that’s as peaceful and rejuvenating as Laguna Beach itself. Every detail reflects our commitment to wellness, community, and sustainability. SCP Seven4One is a boutique hotel designed for rest and reconnection, steps from the beach. Centered around a bright indoor-outdoor atrium, the hotel offers an intimate setting with spaces to relax, unwind, and gather.

Guests enjoy full access to the oceanfront amenities at our sister property, Laguna Surf Lodge, including an outdoor pool and jacuzzi, beach chairs, towels and umbrellas and oceanfront firepits located steps away on the sand.

The Weller House

The Weller House is a boutique hotel on the wild Mendocino Coast, and a reminder of both the pioneering spirit and decadent luxury of the coastal past. As the oldest house in Fort Bragg, it was once at the center of life in Fort Bragg — and, with an easy walk to downtown restaurants and shops, continues to be so today.

The redwood ballroom on the third floor was once both a church and a speakeasy, and now is the heart of this National Historic Registry property. Our iconic four-story water tower once served an entire neighborhood, and as the tallest point in Fort Bragg, still serves up its best views. With 12 stately rooms between the mansion and the water tower, the Weller House is not only the best way to enjoy Fort Bragg, but a destination all by itself.

Our guest rooms reflect the grandeur of both the Weller House location and its history. In the mansion, the rooms are defined by old-growth redwood molding, antique furniture and velvet. The tower rooms are light and airy, so that your focus is on your view of the ocean.

El Encanto

Bathed in golden light and cooled by ocean breezes, El Encanto is perched high in the Santa Barbara hills – a sanctuary where stillness reigns. Terracotta rooftops peek through palms, winding pathways beckon quiet exploration, and each vantage point reveals a new horizon of sea and sky. Here, time slows, and the world below gently fades. El Encanto honors Santa Barbara’s architectural heritage. Blending California Craftsman elements with Spanish Colonial influences, this legendary sanctuary captures 1920s elegance enhanced by contemporary artistic touches. Creations from local artist Charles Arnoldi bring additional visual impact to your experience.

Savor the spirit of the coast with locally inspired cuisine at The Dining Room and artisan cocktails overlooking the ocean at The Bar. From sunlit breakfasts to twilight drinks, each setting offers a distinct blend of flavor, ambiance, and effortless sophistication.

Taking inspiration from coastal elements, The Spa at El Encanto promises a sublime escape. Expert treatments feature luxurious skincare lines, offering a wonderful route to wellness. After your treatment, recline with detoxifying teas or juices on the Dining Room terrace—the views of Santa Barbara will enchant you.
