Ocean’s Breath is such a lovely and extraordinary home! It’s less than 200 steps to the beach and just moments from the Scenic Road walking paths and benches. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the beautiful stone fireplace warmed both body and soul. The beds, linens, and towels were all comfortable and inviting.We also loved the front patio, where we could hear the waves, and appreciated the easy parking and peaceful neighborhood. There is so much to love about this charming, beautiful, 100-year-old historic home. We truly treasured our time there and hope to return!

The location can't be beat. Easy walk to town, even easier to the beach, and also a nice walk to Carmel Point. The front deck was a lovely spot to hang out. Having off street parking was also a plus given the Carmel traffic and street parking. The home was well stocked and perfect for us as a couple. Quiet evenings by the fire while enjoying the Carmel weather were a nice ending to each day. The owners were responsive and lovely to deal with.

Perfect location!

The beach is just a block away and we could walk to downtown Carmel in 10 minutes. The house has a nice deck for coffee in the morning and a fireplace in the main living area for relaxing in the evening. I particularly liked the cozy beds. Overall, this house is a very charming and relaxing place.

great vacations

This is a very comfortable,well stocked home in a quiet part of Carmel.An easy walk to both the beach and into town makes this a desirable location. The owners have thought of everything to make a stay most enjoyable, from comfortable beds with fluffy pillows and soft linens, bathrooms with great towels and toiletries and a well stocked kitchen that is a dream to use when cooking in for the evening or anytime. I would come back to this property again.

Ocean's Breathe

It was such a comfortable, well maintained home, we felt so at home within the first day of arriving. The outside is charming but the care that the owners Spent on the inside kept us quite comfortable: well stocked kitchen, new gas stove (we are foodie cooks), high quality linens, gas fireplace, and exceptionally clean. We look forward to coming back.

Amazing beach getaway!

"Ocean's Breath" was truely a home away from home in a charming seaside setting a short walk away from the quaint Main Street in Carmel. Everything is so well organized and the house is equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The renters have made everything so easy and even left a thorough list of things to do in the vicinity and restaurant recommendations. a great location close to eberything you need!My family and I loved it so much we were sad to leave. Thanks for a great stay

A dream beach cottage

We loved staying at Ocean's Breath over Christmas, while we celebrated with our family who live up the hill. A very charming Carmel cottage with all the amenities and supplies for cooking and eating, very well stocked. We loved having a fire and lounging in the living room, walking the 2 minute walk to the beach, and the beds were super comfortable. The furnishings and decor were very tasteful, and it really felt like a welcoming home. We've recommended the cottage to friends heading out there in a few weeks. The owners were readily available for any questions we had. Thanks M & A, for a lovely and relaxing abode near our favorite beach in CA.

The perfect Carmel cottage

We have now stayed at this gorgeous, quaint, charming, and comfortable home four times, and are already counting the days until we return. Everything about it is perfect -- the location (steps to the beach, and a ten minute walk to the main street), the quality of the furnishings and amenities (cozy, stylish, well-appointed, upscale in every way), and the thoughtfulness of the owners (who have really covered off every possibility to ensure that there is nothing one could want). We feel so lucky that we found this home, and have relished every moment we have spent there. It is the perfect jewel box of a Carmel cottage.

Super, Awesome home

This home is absolutely charming. I felt like we had walked into Home and Garden's "Home of the Year". Going forward, I have no interest in staying anywhere else when I come to the Monterey Peninsula! Everything is so lovingly put together and comfortable, we both knew we couldn't have done any better. But it's also nice because everything is either new or perfectly clean. The sheets were so soft and the bed was to die for. We loved being just a block from the beach and found ourselves walking everywhere. It was great having a number of amenities like cable TV in two rooms and a garage. If anyone wants to visit Carmel and stay in paradise, I highly recommend this home.

A lovely respite from busy lives

Every visit to Ocean's Breath is a delightful escape. The perfect place to relax with friends over good meals and long conversations in front of the fire or on the front deck. The kitchen is hands down the best equipped one will find in a vacation rental. Foodies can prepare any meal desired with access to a great stove, oven, stand mixer and large capacity food processor, as well as all size pans and baking dishes. I have enjoyed cooking many a great meal together with friends here. The ocean is a short walk away - so close the waves can lull you to sleep at night. I rarely sleep well away from home, but Ocean's Breath is the exception. The beds are so inviting and cozy. I hate to leave at the end of each visit and always look forward to returning. M & A provide the perfect Carmel experience.
