Apartments for Rent in Pebble Beach CA

Few places in California stop you in your tracks quite like Pebble Beach. A toll road -- the legendary 17-Mile Drive -- both frames the landscape and sets this community apart from anything else on the coast. Spread across 9 square miles of the Monterey Peninsula in Monterey County, this unincorporated enclave offers a quiet atmosphere shaped by towering coastal bluffs, stands of Monterey cypress, sandy beaches, and many golf courses.

Day-to-day life is largely car-dependent, with a broader range of dining, shopping, and services found in neighboring Pacific Grove and Carmel-by-the-Sea just minutes away. Landmarks along 17-Mile Drive -- the Lone Cypress, Fanshell Beach, Bird Rock Vista Point, and Crocker Grove -- are as much a part of everyday scenery as they are bucket-list destinations for visitors.

Pebble Beach's apartment communities are limited and low-rise, tucked among the pines along 17-Mile Drive and near the Pebble Beach Golf Links, with rental buildings staying just one or two stories to match local zoning and the area's character. Architecture leans toward coastal design and views of the Pacific or nearby forests framed by large windows -- rather than large complexes or modern high-rises.

The Pebble Beach Company owns The Inn at Spanish Bay, The Lodge at Pebble Beach, and several of the golf courses inside the community, anchoring both the economy and the character of this place. Each August, the world-renowned Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance draws classic car collectors and enthusiasts from around the globe, and every February the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am brings a PGA Tour spotlight to the area's celebrated fairways.
