Clean, Comfortable - great stay
Our stay at The Carmel Beach Resort was absolutely amazing. It’s one block from Carmel Beach, clean and comfortable. Carmel by The Sea is a small quaint town so the property is small but very well maintained. My guess is that because most of the properties were built in the early 90’s with the exception of the historical ones, the property was recently updated. It was a bit hard to sleep the first night because the room creaked a little and we could hear all the noises from the appliances in our room. If can sleep past that, the view was gorgeous from our deluxe ocean view room. We would definitely return to this hotel should we decide to visit Carmel again.

A Charming Hotel in Carmel
A good friend and I decided to spend a few days in Carmel at the Carmel Beach House. We were extremely pleased with our rooms and especially the wonderful staff. We were driven to and from our restaurant reservations every night and had freshly baked cookies brought to our room each day. The hotel is a block away from the ocean so the views and the walks were splendid. I would certainly stay there again. My only (slight) criticism was the cost of the drinks we had at their bar. $30 for a glass of white wine did seem a little excessive. But it was very nice to be able to go there before dinner each night.

cost benefit
back from previous trips but pricing is not clear with a basic breakfast which we thought was included added $45 to our bill not to mention a $40 "resort fee". The only resort benefits were free shuttle into town, with a tip expected, and added costs for services at top of the line charges.

I always love my stay at Carmel Beach Hotel. The rooms are extremely clean, comfortable beds, some rooms are more spacious than others, and the fireplace is an added touch. Breakfast at the property is a great way to start the day before walking to the beach which is just a block away!

Our 6 night stay at the hotel was wonderful! It’s a well appointed small family owned boutique hotel. So many little perks that add up such as free breakfast, beach towels and chairs, chef prepared afternoon sip-n-dip, turn down service with fresh baked cookies, car service into the Carmel village. Plus, the gorgeous beach nearby Just a wonderful experience!

This unique hotel is nestled in a wonderful Carmel residential neighborhood very close to the beach. Our room had an ocean view above the roof line of houses across the street. The staff was amazing and the hotel was cozy and welcoming. We had a balcony where we could sit and enjoy the morning view of the ocean and the evening sunset. Also a fireplace in our room and a very comfortable bed. Highly recommend the Carmel Beach Hotel.

Very peaceful & relaxing stay
We wanted to stay away from the center of Carmel and walk around. This was the place. Parked our car and enjoyed the ambiance. Even though it was chilly in November the space heater did a great job warming us while we had breakfast outside. They offered room service for breakfast if we wanted. Service is impeccable and rooms were completely redone. Highly recommended.
