The property also offers exclusive access and dedicated private parking, allowing guests to conveniently explore the park.

Dining at The Tides Monterey Hotel is a delight, with two on-site eateries to choose from. Bayside Bar and Lounge provides a relaxed atmosphere, while the renowned Tides Waterfront Kitchen offers coastal-flavored menus and picturesque views. Guests can savor fresh coastal California cuisine in unique indoor and outdoor spaces, with views of the ocean as a backdrop. In addition, there are plenty of dining options within a short distance of the hotel, including a café, bar, Starbucks, and a restaurant serving American and Mexican cuisine. Whether guests prefer to enjoy the natural wonders of Fort Ord Dunes State Park, indulge in delicious coastal cuisine, or relax on the beachfront, The Tides Monterey Hotel provides the perfect setting for a memorable stay.

The hotel's location directly on a stunning beach provides easy access to the beachfront, where families can enjoy activities such as playing ball in the morning. Although a distance away from the crowded tourist areas of Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf, and Monterey Bay Aquarium, these popular attractions are just a short drive away. The hotel is surrounded by various points of interest, including Laguna Grande Regional Park, Eolian Dunes Preserve, Del Monte Beach, and the Monterey County Fairgrounds, offering plenty of options for nearby entertainment and recreation. It is conveniently located approximately 90 km from Morgan Hill Caltrain and only 5 km from Monterey Peninsula.

The Monterey Bay coastal trail is ideal for a leisurely stroll, providing access to the giant Ord dunes and Cannery Row. Families can also make the most of their stay with a privately owned beachfront, a heated outdoor pool, onsite bike rentals, and s'mores kits for bonfires. Groups of friends or families can enjoy the premium ocean view two-queen rooms, which offer panoramic bay views and luxurious queen beds.

When it's time to unwind, guests at The Tides Monterey Hotel have a variety of leisure options. The hotel features direct beach access, allowing guests to enjoy the beachfront and relax on comfortable sun loungers. A heated swimming pool with a shallow end is perfect for a refreshing swim, while the garden area provides a tranquil oasis with beach umbrellas for lounging. The enjoyable leisure experience is enhanced by the warm temperatures of approximately 70 degrees Fahrenheit in the fall.
