It’s quite considerate that hotel did inform us of the construction noise in the morning, while actually we are not bothered by the noise at all. Didn’t hear a little bit!

This is a lovely old hotel with a homely feel. The pool looked good but the weather wasn’t great so we didn’t get to use it. The location is excellent, right in the middle of lots of lovely shops, bars and restaurants. We visited the Hogs Breath which has a buzzy, fun atmosphere.

Carmel by the Sea is a treasure!

Carmel by the Sea is a treasure! Just walking Ocean Avenue and looking in the shops is such fun. And by all means walk the length of the beach as the sand gets easier to walk if you walk toward the left. And of course see and enjoy the charming architecture with so many story book houses.

A lovely town full of bars/restaurants boutique shops and galleries. Very walkable if you happen to be young and fit. We really liked Hog’s Breath Inn either for dinner (which was delicious and faultless) or afternoon drinks at the bar and the service was fabulous.

This is a beautiful upmarket town, unspoiled by high rise buildings and bad planning decisions. This was the third time we had visited and it has never disappointed. Quaint houses and shops, clean streets and wonderful beaches. Plenty of on street parking and friendly people. A must visit if you are in Northern California, as is the 17 mile, picturesque, drive between Carmel and Monterey.

Very beautiful and quaint but painfully overpriced as a whole. You can’t get a scoop of ice cream for less than $10. Only go if money is not an object at all. Expect to spend $50+/person for every meal.

Very pretty location with lots of boutique shops and variety of restaurants serving great food. Carmel beach is very beautiful but not for swimming in the sea due to the strong undercurrents. We stayed 1 night which was about right for us as we saw all we wanted to see. If travelling from Monterey, definitely do the 17 mile drive, It was stunning!

This is a haven, a wonderful retreat away from the centre of Carmel (but easy to walk and runs a shuttle if needed) and close to the beautiful beach. It offers wonderful rooms with everything you need and more -- wine tasting in the afternoon (free!), cookies baked daily, a delicious breakfast bar with an incredible array of healthy offerings and stunning views/gardens. Very friendly and polite staff.
