5 Things to do at the Portola Hotel & Spa in Monterey
We stayed as a guest of the property After spending a couple of days in Yosemite, our vacation continued. It was now time for some fresh sea air, clam chowder, and ocean views, so we left Yosemite and hit the coast. We made it to Monterey Bay in about 3 hours.
