Planning Your Pebble Beach Golf Getaway: Essential Tips for an Unforgettable Trip

March 26th, 2024

, , , ,

A golf vacation during the hot summer months is best when coupled with a golf destination near the ocean, such as Pebble Beach, especially if you like the salty breeze and stunning ocean views to complement your golfing experience. There are many factors to consider when planning a Pebble Beach golf vacation. Pebble Beach Resort at Monterey Peninsula, California, is one of the most sought-after golf destinations in the world, and Pebble Beach Golf Links is unanimously rated the top public course in the US.

Early Planning is Essential

Early planning is a must to give your group the best deals in terms of lodging and tee times on any of the courses at Pebble Beach Resort, particularly Pebble Beach Golf Links. Working around major maintenance schedules is also important, as you do not want to put on greens that are coming off a major aerification.

We recommend planning at least six months in advance for peak season dates; four months in advance is usually sufficient for lower periods. For large corporate groups, booking their golf outing a year in advance will definitely help them get the most advantageous deals. We often have groups requesting quotes for golf getaways one or two months in advance. While we may have a chance to make the reservations for weekdays and some weekends, this is not always the case.

Attention to Detail is the Key to Success

Setting your budget is one of the first steps in planning your golf vacation in Pebble Beach. Consider off-course activities such as dining options, local tours, entertainment, shopping, and other fun activities, depending on your budget. It’s also essential to book your accommodation near the golf course. Always include some extra funds if something unforeseeable occurs, like an unexpected off-course activity you just have to experience. For example, if you’re contemplating the Pebble Beach Resort, take into account that many local attractions might be too fun to pass on with your golf buddies, such as:

  • horseback riding the trails of Pebble Beach
  • kayak tours
  • paddle board, surf renting
  • whale watching boat tours
  • Monterey County Wine Country tour
  • luxury treatments at The Spa at Pebble Beach
