“Mar Monte Hotel's Spanish colonial bones provide a striking contrast to its modern updates, right on East Beach. I particularly appreciate that it leans into its location, offering bikes and beach gear to guests. While some rooms feel more updated than others, the ocean views and active outdoor spaces are undeniable draws.”
