One Bedroom Suite Cottage
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (9)
"The cottage had the basic necessities and that's all we needed. We were there to explore and our lodging was for nothing more than to bathe, sleep, use the fridge for leftovers, use the microwave for leftovers and enjoy the bliss of being so close to all the sights and the beach within a decent budget! We'll be back soon!"

Moonglow: Forest tranquility minutes from downtown Carmel.
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (234)
"We were very comfortable in Diane and Chuck's delightful cottage. It has been put together with artistry and anticipation of guests' needs: we appreciated the supplies of basic provisions for guests' use. The location is peaceful and relaxing despite its proximity to the centre of Carmel, just a 15-minute walk away. We particularly enjoyed the attractive timber deck with its range of seating. "

3904 Out of the Blue - Modern Home, Water Feature, Distant Ocean Views!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (19)
"This house has everything possibly needed. Very thoughtfully stocked and supplied, and efficiently laid out with comfortable and tasteful furnishings. Very scenic location above the main part of town, and easy access. Particularly enjoyed the courtyard dining table. Unfortunately we were there during a heat wave, and hardly anything in Carmel has air conditioning, so it was hot in the house. Supplied fans helped. Some traffic noise at times from busy street just below house, not noticeable...

Secluded Cottage on Private Estate
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (30)
"Aside from a few outdated listing pictures of the cottage, the experience was pretty magical. Location was perfectly situated between Carmel and Monterey. Access to property was seamless and the host was probably the most interesting man in the world. He was there only when we needed and got to share some great stories. Highly suggest experiencing this for yourself. "

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (20)
"Our 3 couples loved our weekend in Carmel at Sycamore Place - fabulous location, great house, nice fenced in yard, well stocked kitchen and perfect hot tub! Property Manager was quick to respond to a couple of minor issues which we appreciated. The office in the house was very handy for some of our crew that had to work. Beds are very soft which was fine for some, not great for 1 of the couples. Easy access in and out with a code. Would definitely stay again! "

Quiet wooded Guest Cottage
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (469)
"Great communication and an overall comfortable stay. Highly recommended for couples wanting a quieter stay away from downtown Carmel, but still close enough to walk into it. The walk back uphill will be tough, but rideshare options are always available and pretty affordable too. Can't stress enough how sweet and helpful the property owner was. Haven't ever encountered that with any B&B's. Can't wait to come back and stay again!"
