Quiet location with plenty of parking. The grounds were immaculate and the rooms functional. Lovely touches from a welcome gift to an early evening knock on the door with bedtime cookies. Located just minutes from the beach and about 15mins walk to amenities. I would recommend as a good base for exploring.

This was a beautiful place to stay in Carmel by the Sea. It is only one block away from a scenic beach with a nice walking trail. The property was immaculate and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We were able to order nice breakfasts and have them delivered to our room. This property is a few blocks from downtown so it is very quiet. It was very easy to obtain an Uber for the short ride but the walk is filled with the most beautiful houses to see. Parking is an issue and it is an expensive place to stay but it is still well worth it!
