Looking to escape the hustle and reset in style? A long weekend in Monterey might be exactly what you need—and with Luxe Vaca’s curated vacation rentals, it’s more than just a getaway; it’s an experience. From windswept coastlines and iconic golf courses to charming downtown strolls and oceanside dining, here’s how to turn 72 hours into a lifetime memory.

Roll into Monterey by afternoon and head straight to your Luxe Vaca rental—think ocean views, spa-like bathrooms, and a cozy fireplace ready for late-night wine and waves. Unpack and breathe in the sea air.

Kick off your weekend with a stroll down Cannery Row. Grab fresh oysters and a cocktail at The C Restaurant while the sun dips below the Pacific. Trust us, golden hour hits different here.
Day 2: Adventure + Indulgence
Morning calls for movement—grab coffee in Pacific Grove and head to Point Lobos State Natural Reserve. The trails are short but breathtaking, with sea lions and tide pools waiting to be discovered.
If golf’s on your list, you’re in paradise. Book a midday tee time at the legendary Pebble Beach Golf Links, or try the scenic Pacific Grove Golf Links for a hidden gem experience.
Afternoon? Treat yourself to a spa session back at your Luxe Vaca rental, followed by a chef-prepared dinner (yes, we can arrange that) or a walk to Fisherman’s Wharf for some clam chowder in a bread bowl.
Day 3: Easy Like Sunday Morning
Sleep in. You’ve earned it. Enjoy coffee from your deck, watching the marine layer roll over the bay. Then take a lazy drive down 17-Mile Drive—windows down, playlists on, ocean breeze blowing through.
Before you leave town, don’t miss a stop at Carmel-by-the-Sea. Art galleries, boutique shops, and oceanfront dining wrap up your Monterey escape with just the right touch of elegance.
