About this property

Peaceful Retreat - Carmel House - Lovely and Private

This one-bedroom Carmel Cottage is on a quiet street just six blocks from the restaurants, galleries and shops on Carmel’s Ocean Avenue. The living room has a brick gas log fireplace and overlooks a sunny patio that is protected from ocean winds by tall pines and green hedges. This furnished patio is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or spend a relaxing afternoon.
The home is comfortably furnished with a queen-size bed, a full bath with tub/shower, a convertible queen-size sofa, a desk, and two flat panel TVs with expanded cable service, DVD player/recorder, CD player and WiFi internet access. The full kitchen has all the cookware and dinnerware needed for an elegant meal (or to reheat take out from one of Carmel’s award-winning restaurants!). Everything is on ground level, and there's carport parking right out front.      
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Exceeded our expectations. Neat and clean house in a good location. Down town and the farmer's market are just down the hill. I would book again.

Peaceful Retreat

The Peaceful Retreat served as home base for us while we pursued our search for a permanent residence in Carmel, CA. This charming unit was perfect for us. It was within easy walking distance to downtown Carmel. It was located in a quiet residential neighborhood. Having a private patio, internet access, a carport and a washer/dryer made this the perfect home during our stay in Carmel. There is a wall of windows in the living room and dining area that makes the unit feel light and airy. We found this small condo to be just the right size for 2 people. We would highly recommend the Peaceful Retreat.

Cozy, Quiet Cottage

This was a cozy, quiet cottage in a great location in Carmel-By-The-Sea. 10 minute walk to downtown, 15-20 minute walk to Carmel Beach. Plus easy on/off Hwy 1. The cottage was very cute and quaint; perfect for a single person looking to escape the daily grind, or a couple in search of a romantic getaway. The cottage itself was a bit outdated, could use an upgrade when it comes to furniture and decor, but it was still endearing and had everything you needed - whether you are staying for 3 days or 30. The reasons I am giving it a 4 vs 5 rating are for a few reasons: (1) it was very difficult to find; all my guests (and myself) got lost; (2) it needs an overall upgrade. That said, I would highly recommend and hope to stay here again one day.

I didn't want to leave

I was in need of some alone time. I wanted a safe comfortable place so that I can just stay in when I wanted to and go out when I needed too. This place is a home away from home! I didn’t want to leave! It has everything you need to feel at home I love to cook and the kitchen had all the supplies needed and more! It had a bbq grill outside with a backyard set to sit and enjoy the beautiful sounds of nature and view of all the trees if you look closely you can see the ocean.. the living room is super comfortable with a pull out bed and extra blankets and pillows if needed.. the room has two walk in closets so much storage more then I needed..their is a heater that I had off most of the time so I can have the windows open.. the drive way is steep so be careful don’t go straight in reversing will be hard so reverse into the drive way if you are confident much easier to get out.. or just park on the street.. the location is amazing to get everything u need is such a short drive max 10 mins to get to the movies Safeway or mall...the town has so many different restaurants of all kinds of food I will find what ever you are craving... oh and the beach is walking distance or if u take ur car so many places to park.. the location of this beautiful cottage is amazing but the fact that it is literally a home away from home is amazing!!!!!
