Nice 2 bedroom 2 bath house in a cute neighborhood

Nice 2 bedroom 2 bath house in a cute neighborhood. The house was super clean and had everything we needed. It's in a very nice quiet neighborhood where you can walk to downtown Carmel. This is the second time we have stayed there.

Christmas in Carmel

Our family had a great stay in this lovely home. We were able to walk or ride bikes to downtown and the beach and it was a short 10 minute drive to Monterey. and Pacific Grove. You can also shop to your hearts content in downtown Carmel with its many stores and galleries. It is a great spot for exploring the area.

Delicious

We cannot say enough about this lovely home that is situated on a quiet street with easy access to Carmel by the Sea Village and the Highway 1. The home is exceptionally clean and well maintained. It was outfitted with all one would need to enjoy a few days or longer...furniture was extremely comfortable. The beds...OMG...they were incredibly delicious in that once you got in, you did not want to get out. The Owner was very easy to communicate with, access into the home was easy and the stay was most enjoyable.

Such a delightful home!

The house is in a very quiet neighborhood that feels charming and safe. Wonderful private outdoor space with patio brick pavers. The house was sooo clean and tidy when we arrived. Very spacious living area with a cozy fireplace and lots of bright windows. The kitchen was so nice with everything we needed for a few simple meals, even extra benefits like oil, spices and some storage containers. Beds were very comfy, lots of closet space and nice bathrooms with plenty of towels. The walk to town and the beach is pretty far, a delightful morning exercise in athletic shoes, not a stroll to dinner in heels. Sandy was helpful and responsive. We loved everything about our stay at Dos Hermanos and hope to return again soon!

Lovely stay at Dos Hermanos

My family (spouse 14 year old) had a lovely stay at Sandy's place. We were there for almost 3 weeks. As others have mentioned, the home is impeccably clean. There were plenty of towels, washcloths, trash bags, and dish detergent for our stay. The kitchen is very well stocked. We cooked for most nights of our stay and had all the pans/cookware necessary. There is a great backyard space to eat outside.Before booking, as others likely do, I scoured reviews of many places. I wanted to mention some things about the home for future renters.Carmel is very hilly. We walked downtown every day - it's about a 15/20 minute leisurely stroll. Another 10 or so minutes from downtown to the beach. The walk into town is all downhill, so the walk back is all uphill. We never minded, it was good exercise. My teen walked back and forth multiple times per day with no complaints.Other reviews mentioned that the road is a dead spot for cell service. Perhaps towers have been updated, but my family has Verizon and we never experienced any cell service issues. We worked remotely for the time we were there. The wifi at the home is reliable, but we could have tapped into our phone hotspots if needed.The washing machine does dispense detergent automatically, but it is unscented. I have very sensitive skin (cannot do scented laundry, dryer sheets, etc) and never experienced any issues. Sandy is a great host - very responsive. We would absolutely rent this place in the future.

Great stay

The place was spotlessly clean and exactly as described. Owner great to work with and communicative. Lots of room and comfy. Quiet neighborhood, a few blocks to restaurants. We invariably walked to dinner (downhill) and took ride-share back after dinner. Great place for a base from which to explore the area.
