"The room and bathroom were so spacious - the bathroom was actually huge - a rarity in hotels. The property was beautiful and so close to the beach. One of the staff members helped me to track a door dash delivery that got lost due to the confusing street number systems in Carmel and me not speaking the language of the driver. Highly recommend."

"Spectacular cliffside property. Absolutely AMAZING views. The property is incredibly landscaped. Staff are excellent and helpful. for seniors and disabled persons it is a CHALLENGE to walk to property due to Many steps and steep inclines between the main building/lobby/restaurant and rooms and parking. That’s the only complaint. Rooms are very nicely done and the bed was excellent. Also…the One ice machine on property was broken. Would stay again but would ask for a room easier to walk."

"Great stay, friendly staff and a fantastic complimentary breakfast! The place was old school and quaint, nothing modernized. We stayed for a few days during a family wedding weekend. The staff is everything. Very accommodating and friendly. The chef making the complimentary breakfast was fantastic - best avocado toast I've had! Hot eggs/quiche/frittatas on the weekends. The accommodations were rustic with some rooms being more updated than others. Regardless, the room was extremely clean along with the rest of the property. The pool was wonderful. It gets much hotter in the valley than in the town of Carmel, 17 mile drive, Monterrey so layer up."
