Lovely Carmel Christmas
My family and I had a wonderful Christmas in Carmel at this cozy and spacious home. The home had everything we needed, the kitchen was plush, and the indoor fireplace and outdoor firepit worked perfectly. And of course, the location, a short walk to the most beautiful beach on earth was the best part. I look forward to future stay at this great little place. Thank you!

A Carmel Delight
This is an amazing property just two short blocks from Carmel Point and the Carmel beaches. The outside is fairly unassuming from the street. The interior is just grand. Every room is delightful. It has its own interior courtyard.So comfortable and relaxing. A real find.

Charming cottage in great neighborhood
We had a wonderful stay. The cottage had everything we needed. We enjoyed making meals in the well equipped ktchen and hanging out by the fire in the patio area. We loved walking into town in the mornings to get coffee. My husband and brother took surf lessons during our stay. The meet up point was a few blocks away from the cottage. We would stay here again.

Fabulous Carmel cottage
We had an amazing 2 weeks stay at this beautiful cottage 2 blocks from Carmel Beach. Perfect location just blocks from downtown Carmel shopping and dining. Very quiet neighborhood, friendly neighbors and perfect weather especially for us coming from Arizona. If you plan a trip to the Monterey Peninsula you must stay at this cottage!!

Carmel Point cottage
We have always loved Carmel Point, and this cottage is the perfect place for folks like us — it’s “old” Carmel in feel while providing modern convenience and impeccable maintenance. The cottage is comfortable and well equipped — everything you need is available. Flowers in front and back are gorgeous, and the inner courtyard is a beautiful and peaceful retreat. Four to five blocks to either beach. A great visit in a great cottage.
