The Lodge at Pebble Beach
Pebble Beach, United States

The Lodge at Pebble Beach faces the eighteenth green and Stillwater Cove, giving it a close relationship with the course that shares its name. Established in 1919, the hotel brings a residential style to California's Monterey Peninsula, with traditionally furnished rooms and suites arranged around the golfing landscape. Ocean and fairway views are a defining feature of many accommodation choices. Guest rooms combine substantial furnishings with the warmth of fireplaces in selected categories, while Fairway One adds accommodation beside the first hole. The connection with Pebble Beach Golf Links is unusually immediate, though golf still requires a separate reservation. Staying here also provides a base for the resort's other courses and its golf academy, allowing an itinerary to extend beyond one round. Restaurants offer several dining styles, and guests can use the resort's spa and affiliated sporting facilities. Time away from golf might involve the waterfront, tennis or exploring the peninsula by way of 17-Mile Drive. The Lodge's appeal rests in that balance of sporting purpose and coastal leisure, with the finishing green providing a constant point of reference throughout a stay.
