About this property

Steps to Beach- Ocean views - Dog Friendly

Our La Casita house is situated on a large, rare double lot. There are views of the beach and ocean from inside the house.

We are about 250 feet to the beach with a direct access path in front of the house.

Sleeps 8 with 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. There are many windows with strong light coming in all over the house.

The entire living space is on one floor with no steps. And, it is safe for kids.

Please check out the video walk thru in the video section.

Please try to book your stay within the same calendar month. Exceptions can be made so please inquire with us.

La Casita is a 6 block walk to the restaurants and shops of downtown Carmel.

The property (inside and outside) has been updated throughout but still has that authentic Carmel charm. It has a very large yard and ample parking. Two cars can park in the driveway and there is plenty of free, unrestricted street parking all the time.

There is a beach access path directly across the street.

If you have someone in your party that has trouble going up steps, there is a back entrance to the property that has no steps...just a flat walk into the house. There is one curb on the street which you can avoid if you pull your car up to the curb.

It's a quick drive north to Pebble Beach for golf, tennis, spa and events like the AT&T Golf tournament and Concours d'Elegance. To the south are the cliffs of Big Sur, Point Lobos, and redwood forests to hike and explore. East is sunny Carmel Valley with its wineries, shops, golf and state parks.

There is an outdoor Ring security camera above the garage facing the driveway. There are some smart home devices like leak & glass detectors, remote door keypad, connected washer/dryer, and Nest thermostat and smoke detector products, and a smart landscape sprinkler controller.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Dave Rothschild

Host profile image
My wife and I own this house. It is the only house we rent. Mid 2023 was the first time we have made it available on a short term rental basis so that is why you don't see many reviews. This was our family's second home.

We are doing our best to make this house the best possible experience for you. During your stay, you can contact us any time for questions or issues.

We live in the San Francisco Bay Area about an hour away and are available for anything that comes up during your stay.

Why they chose this property

Carmel is a very unique area and convenient to access from the San Francisco Bay Area.

What makes this property unique

One block from the white sand of the famous Carmel Beach and 6 blocks from downtown Carmel. There are very few rental properties this close to the beach that are one level and 3 bedrooms with 3 full bathrooms.

The City of Carmel's rental regulations require that we can only accept only one booking within a 30 day period.

Please note: There is active construction at a neighboring property. It is in the final stages working on landscaping. We expect the work to finish by August 2026.
