It’s hard to imagine a more picturesque and romantic location than that of Seven Gables. The waves crashing along the rocky shoreline, the sea otters frolicking just offshore, the whales spouting, the surrounding mountains lit up by the sunset ... these are the images seen from every guest room of this elegant inn.

Such natural beauty is complemented on the inside by an ecclectic collection of comfortable furnishings. A bountiful breakfast, enjoyable afternoon wine and cheese, outstanding guest service and the comfort of all private baths combine to make Seven Gables, truly, one of the most outstanding inns in California.

Seven Gables was completed in the year 1886. It was one of a parade of large, showy mansions being built along the oceanfront of the Monterey Peninsula. Whoever picked this particular site had an eye to the future. Today it stands with an unobstructed view of the Monterey Bay and the coastal mountains beyond.

Seven Gables Inn is personally managed by our family. We opened our home to guests in 1982. Since then, we have anticipated the wishes of our guests, and we endeavor to make your
holiday one that you will always remember..

—Your hosts, Ed Flatley and Susan Flatley Wheelwright
