The Jabberwock Inn is a delight! From the moment we walked in we felt like we were part of a family. John showed us around and explained everything we needed to know to help make our stay enjoyable. Our room was beautiful (Toves - first floor with private garden) with a comfy bed, big spa and a fireplace. The "happy... More

We enjoyed our stay at this Inn. It is hidden away in a neighborhood (as with most B&B;s) and the pride of ownership shows. Dawn and John and their employees really make the inn efficient. They are all so helpful and eager to please. There is plenty to eat at breakfast and they will accommodate you if you do not... More

We just returned from a nice long weekend at the Jabberwock Inn and enjoyed every minute. John & Dawn are outstanding hosts! It is abundantly clear they truly enjoy serving their guests. The accommodations at the Jabberwock are very comfortable. The appetizers and wine in the evening are a nice way to get to know the hosts and other guests.... More

Yet another great California B&B. We stopped here after Big Sur and had a great night's stay. The house is impressive, as is the consistent dedication to the Lewis Carroll theme throughout. John was a lovely host, and the breakfast and afternoon hors d'oeuvres a real treat.

WOW!!! This place is the BEST!! John & Dawn make you feel so much at home. Everyone staying at the Inn are introduced to each other, and the environment is so inviting and homey. We just loved the Jabberwock Inn. The nightly appetizers and breakfast is amazing. The grounds are beautiful. We would definately stay here again. We can't wait... More

Our hosts were very hospitable and made everyone feel like family during the afternoon wine and snack time. The hot appetizers were heavenly and the homemade cookies always there to nibble on. Location was very private and quiet, yet within walking distance to Cannary Row.

My boyfriend and I visited Monterey in late March. I did my research, read some reviews, and finally decided to book a room (the Tugley Wood Room - the last room they had available) at The Jabberwock Inn. We are a younger couple (late 20s/early 30s) and had never stayed at a B&B before. We had our concerns: "Were we... More

The staff was wonderful the rooms clean and very well decorated. The view to the bay was special for sure. Breakfast wonderful and the table chat typical of a well ran establishment with a good reputation. The location is the reason we came here and you can easily walk to most everything on Cannery Row.

Like other visitors, I cannot recommend this B&B highly enough! My husband and I stayed here over the Easter break and it surpassed all our expectations. John and Dawn are incredibly welcoming and the house is spotless & incredibly comfortable. Their 'social hour' quickly became something to look forward to each evening and we often had to drag ourselves away... More

If you are looking for a B&B that is not only in a great location overlooking the ocean, but looking for wonderful innkeepers, look no further! This lovely place is like staying with old friends, John & Dawn made us feel right at home the moment we walked through the door. We stayed in the "Mome Rath" room, which is... More
