Bill was attentive and helpful. We particularly enjoyed the outside patio area and ocean view from the high top table and chairs. The home was quiet, and the bed was comfortable. Downtown Carmel was very close, we went to Mission Ranch for dinner more than once, it is less than 5 minutes away. This was great for a long weekend stay for two people.

The property was amazing! The yard was extremely spacious and was great for our dogs to run around. The location of the home is perfect as it is right off the Route 1, but far enough so there is no noise pollution. Additionally, it is just minutes away from downtown Carmel and nearby shopping plazas. Check-in was a breeze and the room and bed was the perfect size for me, my wife, and my 2 dogs.

My husband and I enjoyed this lovely studio immensely with its beautifully maintained surroundings and private patio. Tons of privacy and a view of the ocean in the distance. The owner, Bill, was so accommodating and hands-on with our needs. Minutes away from all kinds of amenities. We highly recommend this special little gem. Very pet friendly too. We truly think you won’t be disappointed!
Sitting in the lovely private patio, sipping on our favorite wine and overlooking the grounds with the ocean in the distance. ♥️ 🐾
Cheers from the patio and you can see the ocean between the glasses. 🍷🍷

The Tuckaway was a truly magical property. We will never forget it! Bill did an incredible job when we arrived of explaining the very unique property and building as well as the surrounding area. The garden is just otherworldly. We so enjoyed happy hour there at the end of every day as well as meditating in the peaceful beauty. Highly recommend! Five minutes into town for phenomenal meals and shopping as well.

We stayed here for a weekend getaway and, unfortunately, left feeling that the overall value didn’t match the price. While the location and garden area are undeniably lovely, the actual living space fell short of expectations.The unit itself is a very small, outdated studio that felt quite cramped for a comfortable stay. Although there was coffee provided, basic additions like creamer or milk were missing, which felt like an oversight at this price point.The owner was kind enough to give us a thorough walkthrough upon arrival, which we appreciated. However, some of the details shared didn’t quite align with reality—for example, we were told the bathroom featured “the finest soaps,” but they appeared to be dish soap.The outdoor garden space is beautiful and well-kept, but ultimately, guests are paying to sleep and relax indoors. For us, the interior accommodations simply didn’t justify the cost, even with the added charm of the exterior.Overall, while there are some positives, we don’t feel the experience matched what we expected for the price.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Mar 2026
I was surprised that these guests didn't say something to me as the property and studio has many professional photos and video of the interior as well as exterior. The soaps are Not dish soap but expensive liquid hand soap as well as bar soaps. The interior is not dated but has custom rugs, new windows and window coverings and a custom 4 foot round copper dining table as well as a new custom bed and headboard. Sugar was in the cabinet and milk was in the refrigerator, I guess they didn't look.

Lovely studio rental in a gorgeous location

Bright, cozy, and tidy- this studio rental showcases the Carmel experience with a gorgeous outdoor space and an unbeatable proximity to both downtown and beach.
