About the area

Carmel

Located by the sea, this holiday home is in Carmel Point, a neighbourhood in Carmel. Pebble Beach Golf Links and Fisherman's Wharf are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Carmel Beach and Monterey Bay. Check out an event or a game at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, and consider making time for Monterey Bay Aquarium, a top attraction not to be missed.

The house was lovely and in a great location to walk around Carmel and to the beach. Everything was well laid out and comfortable. Beds were great and everyone slept well. The one tricky piece was the navigation to the property -

We had a great time but were disappointed by the minimal kitchen supplies, pits and pans ( literally 3 total ) and general supplies like trash bags and seasonings ( salt & pepper but nothing else ). For the price we paid, there should be better provisions for families wanting to cook a meal “at home”.

Our family of seven enjoyed our stay at Dolce Tempo. The location was a short walk to the beach and a short drive to town. The house was filled with charm and natural light. The bedding was decent quality and the linens were clean. Please be aware there is no air conditioning so opening the windows to cool the home is the only option you have. There are also no screens in the windows. Our trip was late October and the house became very warm during the day and was slow to cool at bedtime.The advertisement for the home mentioned a bathtub which was a necessity for us with three young children. The rest of the house was clean aside from a few carpet stains, but the bathtub was unusable until I cleaned it. The jets in the bathtub were visibly full of black biofilm and it was apparent the tub had not been cleaned properly in a very long time. I found this strange because they advertised a “jetted tub” which requires extra attention in the cleaning process. The house also needs some repairs to ensure the safety of its guests. The corner tile piece of the kitchen bar was missing which makes the corner very sharp and dangerous if you have a child who is the height of the counter. The two concerns I mentioned cause me to wonder how much time the cleaning staff is given to properly clean the home and also if anyone from management checks in to make necessary maintenance and repairs.

Wonderful Carmel Weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful weekend stay at Dolce Tempo. The home was incredibly clean, fresh and comfortable. Nothing 'icky' about anything, and I am rather picky. It was a happy house with great natural light, access to the outdoors, nice little kitchen, cheerfully decorated. To go into town (which is close but not quite walking distance), we just took Ubers to avoid the hassle of parking-- it was totally worth it. Located in a nice neighborhood and close to a beach for morning walks. We plan to re-do this trip next spring and stay here again.

Great location for acres to Carmel River Beach. Bright and open, accommodated 6 adults nicely. Kitchen needs to be inventoried and the pillows aren’t great, but overall it’s a great space for a group.
