Accessible features include visual and hearing impairment kits, TTY phones, and accessible public spaces. Dry cleaning services are available upon request. The property supports the Monterey Bay Aquarium's conservation mission and serves as an official hotel for the Monterey Jazz Festival.
“Spindrift Inn feels like stepping back into a more gracious era, where fireplaces and binoculars for otter-spotting are delightful room amenities; the views of Monterey Bay are simply exceptional. While valet parking feels almost essential given the location, the delivered breakfast and overall charm make it worthwhile. I'd recommend it for a cozy, romantic getaway.”
