Deer Haven Inn
This is an affordable older motel less than a block from Asilomar. We’ve been there twice and get an upstairs room, which has always been quiet. Then we can stroll over to the Asilomar Lodge ( for a drink) and down to the gorgeous beach.

Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay
We liked that the hotel was near the wharf and close to a bunch of cute shops. What we didn't like is that there was a lot of noise within the hotel and outside and the room didn't get dark enough as there was only blinds.

Room was comfortable and clean Ighting in bathroom was somewhat dim. Solid location. Food in the hotel restaurant was poor.
