Home was a great location for exploring Carmel, Pebble Beach, Monterey and Big Sur. Plenty of space, beds were very comfortable and hot tub felt great. Lots of nice hiking trails near the home and a great spot to watch the sunset. Would stay here again. Nice quiet neighborhood.

A wonderful stay for a small family in Carmel Meadows! The weather was cool so the hot tub came in handy to warm up. This is our favorite location, close to Barnyard shopping, Safeway, CVS, restaurants and a short drive to downtown Carmel. The direct access from the house to trails to the beach is wonderful.

We adored the location and the views from this property. We loved the layout of the house. Communication was good. We would stay here again but hope that there are screens on the windows in the primary bedroom next time. The chairs in the family room need to be replaced or reupholstered but the view while sitting in them watching the ocean, the sunsets or the morning marine layer is stunning. The kitchen was pretty well stocked and there were plenty of towels and beds were comfy.

This property was perfectly located for our visit to Carmel and Monterey. Listening to the waves while sitting on the deck was amazing! Having three bedrooms and three bathrooms was a must. The kitchen was well stocked and very clean as was the whole house. I would stay there again!
