Oceanfront Dining Perfect for Date Nights

The C Restaurant + Bar

The hotel’s signature C restaurant + bar sits above the bay, so nearly every table offers a water view. Couples can linger over:

• Coastal California cuisine featuring just‑caught seafood, prime Angus beef, and local organic produce.
• Breakfasts cooked to order, praised in guest feedback for quality and consistency.
• Sunset cocktails and award‑winning martinis at The C Bar, named Best Martini in Monterey 2025.

On warm evenings, the Pacific courtyard and outdoor fire pits are ideal for al fresco drinks and shared small plates with waves as the soundtrack.

Private dining rooms with ocean vistas are available for proposals, anniversaries, or intimate celebrations.

Spa and Wellness for Two

The Spa at InterContinental The Clement

The on‑site spa is a standout for couples seeking relaxation:

• Customized massages such as the Riverstone Renewal Massage.
• Advanced facials including the Nutri‑Define Supreme Facial.
• Tranquil treatment suites where the sound of the bay enhances the experience.

Wellness touches continue in-room with espresso machines, refillable water, and optional Zen‑garden elements that encourage daily moments of calm. A fitness center with free weights, bikes, treadmills, and a stair stepper supports active couples.

Outdoor Heated Pool & Whirlpool

The outdoor heated lap pool and hot tub overlook the bay, offering a peaceful spot for an early swim or twilight soak. Towel service and sun loungers make it easy to linger between outings on Cannery Row.
