    Quiet and relaxing location on the hillside above the Pacific Ocean. Working fireplace was great for the cool evenings. Easy drive to Point Lobos Park and Carmel. Nice to be back 12 years later. Looks newly renovated. Fantastic bedroom and bathroom.

    I was awakened to a mouse, enjoying the room. I don’t think the price is worth the bad Room.

    Beautiful property with amazing views. Only complaint is that we could not stay longer! The gentleman who checked us in (can’t remember his name!) told us we needed to check out Pfeifer Beach and we’re so thankful he did. It was one of the highlights of our trip. We would definitely stay here again!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    This was a perfect place to stop along our PCH trip! The staff was so nice, the views were amazing, close to Point Lobos and Carmel. A gem! Truly!

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The suite was large and clean with a large hot tub bath...My only issue was that there was no air conditioning, and we went during July. It was cool enough at night with the windows open. The property is a little dated but maintained in very well condition.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    No air conditioner in the room with windows open and heat coming in leaving the space hot upon check in. Asked for second fan which never arrived.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    This was a beautiful property that we stayed at. The view was amazing.

    Rooms have ocean views. Neighborhood were hotel is very nice and safe to walk. Many neighborhood homes are story book cottages.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    All of the staff were amazing and so very helpful. We were greeted immediately with valet service when we came to check in. The room was extremely clean and comfortable. We were pleased that the room came with every essential items you can possibly need. This will be our stay from now on when staying in Carmel.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Beautiful views of the ocean! Traveling with kids they loved the outdoor pool and hot tub beach night after dinner. Easy drive into Carmel and Point Lobos.

    The restaurant was closed for work which was not highlighted at the time of booking.

    This resort arguably has one of the most spectacular views in Carmel. Unfortunately, our room had a very limited view, which was a huge disappointment. The room was not ready at 4:00 pm and we had to wait until nearly 6:00 to get into the room, however they were able to reverse the resort fee which was appreciated. The other issue was that the room reeked of smoke, so bad we could hardly breathe. Probably because the real wood fireplace had been used before us, but leaving behind the smoke is unacceptable. Other than this issue, the room was clean and quite large.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Beautiful property in a beautiful setting. My only complaint was communication between staff and my husband. We had an issue with housekeeping and reported it. We were told they would get back to us and they never did. My husband had to leave a vm and we still never heard back from them.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    They did not have a crib, only a low-quality pack-n-play, which took a long time to set up due to being flimsy, and was incredibly small. Additionally, the sofa sleeper did not de-tach from the sofa (high off of the ground) so our toddler could not safely sleep on it and we could not use it. The room was also extremely hot for our children overnight (76 degrees with the provided floor fan). No one slept due to these uncomfortable sleeping arrangements and temperature. It was a huge mess of an experience and not a great view. No upside, and huge waste of money

    My spouse got a toe fracture recent to the trip itinerary . We requested for a room at the ground floor which was ignored sighting unavailability. Not happy with the hospitality by the checkin staff.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    loved the view and everything else

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Need better signage for the Units as we got lost royally for the 2nd time
