Welcome to the enchanted world of Chateau Sinnet's River Retreat.
Nestled in the hillside near the Carmel Valley River you will find a truly unique property that is in itself a "Work of Art".
Enter a "Secret Garden" gate to the main garden sitting area in front of the home in the middle of the Retreat. The pool area is where you'll want to spend most of your time lounging in the sun, swimming or soaking in the spa.
In the evening, sit around the large outdoor firepit sipping Château Sinnet wine under the stars with your friends and family.
Inside, a spacious yet comfortable living area newly remodeled with custom travertine marble floors, massive stone fireplace, and gorgeous granite bar, perfect for entertaining; all awaiting you to create the perfect evening. The full, well equipped kitchen and dining area are ready for your culinary adventures.
The exquisite master bath has floor to ceiling marble and many special features you're sure to enjoy like a 3-headed shower.
More accomodations on the property which share the grounds, include The Tree House, and Cave House, which can sleep up to 8 more people and be rented separately or as a complex for family gatherings or friendly get togethers. Please inquire for rates.
Just across the street is a pathway to a lovely wooded spot on the river where you can sit and listen to the soothing sounds of the flowing water.
Carmel Valley Village is only minutes away and has everything you'll need to make your stay complete including shopping, wine tasting, beautiful park with large public pool, many restaurants, galleries and more.
