The Jabberwock Bed & Breakfast

Rick, Suzanne, and Dorothy consistently went above and beyond on our 3-night stay. The home and grounds are overflowing with curated character in every nook and cranny. Waking up to look out our room’s windows as the sun first peeked over the Gabilan Mountains and lit up the sky over Monterey Bay will be a lasting memory. Breakfasts and happy hours in the sunroom were top-notch (especially the award-winning Jabber Juice). We met interesting people and had great conversations - we even returned home with art and unique coffee mugs as well! We will definitely be back.

This charming bed and breakfast offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. The rooms are clean and cozy, providing a comfortable stay. I thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food, beautiful views, and delightful conversations with fellow guests over wine and hors d’oeuvres, as well as the delightful breakfast. The staff is friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant and memorable experience.

Rick, Suzanne and Dorothy were exceptional host and treated us extremely well and were very helpful during our stay. The breakfast was exceptional, they served great appetizers, the B&B had beautiful furniture all over including the room and the bed/shower were very nice. We would love to come back next year.

The best bed and breakfast that I been to! The service/ambiance and food were wonderful! The view from the outdoors seeing the ocean was great! Hats off to Dorthy and

I enjoyed my stay so much, in particular the room was so homely with a comfy armchair to sit next to the fire in the evening. The delicious breakfast with the panoramic view of the garden. Being able to park safely in the hotel car park. Chatting with the owner Rick about the exquisite furniture and its restoration. All in all a full experience of a beautiful building in Monterey.

We spent 5 nights at the Inn in the Brillig Room with a lovely sunrise view of the Bay. The room and the Inn are full of thoughtful touches from water (and brandy for a nightcap if you like) in the room, to coffee and tea and cookies in the sun porch. The breakfasts are not to be missed and also add great value to your room rate. If you happen to be back at the Inn before dinner, enjoying a glass of wine and light appetizers with other guests on the sun porch is a pleasant late afternoon break. Restaurants are plentiful within walking distance or a short drive, and free parking is another nice perk. Rick, Suzanne and Dorothy are all pleasant and accommodating, and their restaurant and itinerary recommendations were all very helpful. Highly recommend the Inn when staying in the area. It was the perfect home base for not only Monterey itself, but also for exploring Big Sur and Carmel. For those not used to older (turn of the century) homes, you will hear footsteps from the room above or voices in the hallway but we found all the guests during our stay to be considerate so noise was not a concern.
