Don Martine

Don Martine has been interested in MGs since his dad purchased a 1949 MGTC in 1950. Don worked on the car and drove this MG during his high school years. Since those early years, he has accumulated, restored, raced, and displays several models of vintage MGs. Five to eight vintage vehicles are regularly onsite at the Martine Inn for guests' viewing, including car memorabilia such as old gas pumps, posters, accessories, car equipment and original auto paintings. A stay at the Martine Inn is not just a place to spend your day and evening, but also a visually memorable experience steeped in unique history at this Pacific Grove, California hotel.
