Escape to a Private and Romantic Beach Resort on the West Coast of California’s Seascape

Published
Monterey Bay, California

California isn’t only reserved for the glitz and glamor of Hollywood and some of the best wine destinations in the U.S., like Napa. Along the northern California coastline is Monterey Bay, and one of the most charming, romantic towns along the bay is Aptos. It might not have the clout that San Diego and Los Angeles do, but it does happen to have one of the most romantic resorts not only in the state, but all of the West Coast.



Seascape Beach Resort is a sophisticated northern California resort ideal for couples looking to truly get away from it all. With world-class amenities, spectacular dining, and spacious, chic accommodations, this resort is just what the doctor ordered to keep that romance sparked between you and your special someone. And it doesn’t just have to be reserved for a dreamy getaway; Seascape Beach Resort is even ideal for those looking for an oceanfront setting to tie the knot.

A couple’s paradise

So, out of all of the resorts in California, what makes Seascape Beach Resort a step above the rest on the romance scale? For starters, their suites are cozy, perfect for feeling relaxed and right at home with your special someone. The rooms are really designed to be a home away from home with a fully functioning kitchenette, and either ocean or garden views. There’s an in-room fireplace and you can arrange for a couple’s massage right in your private suite. 

Not to mention, just a few steps from your doorstep is the sound of the Pacific Ocean crashing into the warm California sand, which just so happens to be part of a private beach available to guests of the resort. You can even arrange for a bonfire in the evening. Seascape Beach Resort is also one of the most romantic destination wedding locations in the USA. The natural setting along the beach is simply dreamy, and couples have tied the knot here for good reason.

Despite the rooms coming with a kitchen, if you want to take a load off and not have to worry about preparing your own meals, you’re in great luck at Seascape Beach Resort. Sanderlings Restaurant is an award-winning restaurant on the property, surrounded by the majestic views of towering palm trees and the Pacific Ocean. Start your day off right with breakfast like fresh fruit, a meat or vegetable omelet, or a Seascape Benedict with smoked salmon and spinach.

Fancy something a little more casual? You can’t go wrong with tacos, especially in California, and Palapos Cantina is here to satiate your appetite. Their ceviche made with shrimp, octopus, and calamari simply cannot be missed, and their chile verde burrito with pork is divine. Sometimes, though, you just want to tune out the noise and skip the crowds. If that’s the case, and you’re looking for something more intimate, you can also arrange for in-suite dining.
