The home was cozy, exceptionally clean, and well maintained, making it a very comfortable stay. It is pet-friendly, which we truly appreciated. The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked with organic spices, coffee, and teas—a lovely and welcoming touch.
The location was excellent, with Ocean Avenue just 0.3 miles away, offering a great selection of restaurants and shopping. The hot water supply in both the bathrooms and kitchen was immediate and consistent, which was especially appreciated during the winter.
Thank you for the helpful guidance throughout our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would be happy to return.

This is a nice place to stay in Carmel. The highlight is the complete and well appointed kitchen so especially great for people who are interested in cooking. The bed is large and comfortable.

We had a perfect stay here - walked into town for sights and dining, hiked on nearby trails, and took in a yoga class at a studio Alex recommended. The weather was a little drizzly at times, but that didn't dampen our visit at all. Accommodations were cozy, with a nice outdoor area to sit in when the clouds lifted. Really appreciated having easily accessible laundry, 1 1/2 bathrooms, and everything in the kitchen we could need. Will definitely return and recommend to others. Thank you!

We enjoyed wonderful stay! The house was very comfortable, as described and had terrific natural light. The bed inviting, plush and warm for the cool evenings. We also brought our dog for the visit, and the patio area had turf that made his periodic bathroom trips a breeze. In addition to the place itself, the location was a nice 10-15 walk (much of which through a wooded park) to the center of town, or a very brief 3 minute drive.
Alex and Team checked in with us periodically, and for the one concern we expressed, were very responsive and thoroughly addressed our issue.
Highly recommend.
