We enjoyed the spa and fire pit outdoors , refillable water station was handy. Location is amazing - walking distance to all nice restaurants. Room is beautiful and overall it was a great last stop of our 3 weeks US trip! Special thanks to the lady at reception on Saturday 23/09 (sorry didn’t note the name). When we asked about early check out process the next day, she took care of our breakfast even though we didn’t specifically ask for it but she wanted to make sure we are not hungry before our early morning road trip to San Francisco :) All the cleaning ladies were very friendly as well, always smiling

    The overall atmosphere of the city is like time slows down and you can just relax. The sounds of the beach, nature, birds and music from shops is heard throughout town instead of busy crowds or traffic. Every nook and cranny of this town has little treasures to discover, either a cute random shop or artistic detail.

    There is not a more enchanting, magical, romantic spot than Carmel. We absolutely love the beauty of this charming town and Monterey being close with more activities. Shopping, eating and relaxing is what we do here. Long walks and short strolls are a must. Enjoying the beach is an added bonus! Everything is within walking distance. The art galleries are always enjoyable. All the restaurants are excellent!

    A most attractive town with a beautiful beach and wide choice of restaurants. Lovely to be able to leave the car and walk around the town, where pedestrians have priority over cars! Worth booking restaurants as they quickly fill!

    Carmel is a very quaint town with a lot of charme an many good restaurants. As a stopover along route 1 it is much nicer than Monterey. Most places are in walking distance. Favorite restaurants are L’Escargot and Portabella.

    Carmel is a beautiful charming small coastal town. Very worth a visit. Many art galleries representing talented artists. Nice coffee shops, breakfast places and an array of dinner choices. Great for wine too.
