"Really outstanding location, large, clean rooms. Counter space in bathroom, really hot water. Great view from our balcony in room 403. Nail file in little kit, plug outlets on lamps. Also a gas Fireplace in our room! Oh, and two luggage racks already in the room. "
"The hotel was very cute, very clean and in excellent condition. The pool was inviting and the waiting areas were comfortable. I didn’t realize upon booking this property that it isn’t right downtown Carmel. But that was my fault. "
"This place is so lovely! The staff was great, very helpful and welcoming. It’s centrally located to Carmel by the sea, Monterey and Big Sur. We got a renovated bathroom which was great. The bed was so comfortable. Our room was on the second floor with a balcony which we enjoyed. The little cabins look very nice and well kept. We hope to stay in one next time. Highly recommend this place. "
"Stayed here four years ago and loved it. Came back this time for our anniversary, let the front desk know the occasion upon arrival. Resort didn’t make any gestures to make the occasion special the entire stay. I let the front desk know that the glass divider for the shower had a large crack running through it. There was a stain on the bench at the in room dining table and the outdoor fireplace wasn’t working. The resort was not busy. The only offer provided was to move us into a room with a less desirable view. I declined, they completely ignored the inoperable outdoor fireplace for three days. Calling room service often took 2-3 calls to get someone to answer the phone. The stay was underwhelming. For this price I’ve had better experiences and service. We also traveled with our kids. At times it felt like we were at a 60+ resort, did not feel family friendly. "
"We stayed on Thursday 2/28/26. Thankfully they let us check in one hour earlier (I did call beforehand to request it). The hotel allows you to do check in online beforehand and that was helpful. The hotel was quiet and we had a king room with a small deck and it was perfect. Bed was a little firm, but the room was very clean. No tv's, no internet in the rooms which was actually nice because we enjoyed sitting outside for the evening. Would love to come back and sightsee some more in the area. Also because our trip was short, we didn't get to try the restaurant so I can't comment on that. "
"A lovely stay at the hotel with a breakfast buffet that pleases everyone in the family. The courtyard was clean and had an inviting set up. The location was in walking distance to the shops and restaurants,"
