Beautiful property, excellent location

Our family had an absolutely fantastic stay here! The property was gorgeous with an awesome location, close to Monterey, Carmel and Laguna Seca. The common areas are relaxing with beautiful views and the bedrooms are large and private (master bedroom ocean view is stunning). The kitchen was well equipped and a great gathering spot. The property manager, Cheryl, was responsive, friendly and extremely helpful. The koi and local wildlife were great to watch, and the beach right across the road made for a lovely stroll. We will be back!

Spectacular setting and artfully appointed

We spent a wonderful Christmas week 2016 here with another family. The house is immaculate and appointed with interesting art reflecting the travels of its owner. The ambience is comfortable and contemporary with Asian architectural accents. The kitchen was well stocked with as beautiful a view of the ocean as the main living areas. The beach is just outside the back gate. The house is spacious with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space as well as come together. Beds were good quality and with the guest house, if you rent it also, it is like a private compound. The visiting herons were an unexpected point of natural interest. And our younger family members enjoyed the outdoor jacuzzi. The house is inspiring and the construction was not a problem for us. Edward and the staff who maintain the house do a wonderful job of making sure guests have what they need. We will be back!

Spectacular Property

We have stayed here multiple times. One of the most scenic spots in the world and the views from the property are spectacular. Kitchen is amazing. Everything you would need. Each of the four rooms is distinct and separate from the others for privacy. The property manager is a joy to work with. It doesn't get any better than this.

Views from Koketsu are even better than pictured. What a fantastic spot to spend a week, or more. Michael is very fortunate to have a superb house manager, Cheryl, who meets our every need seamlessly. Wonderful dining in Carmel, with accommodations that were outstanding. Koi thriving, and fabulous secluded hot tub enjoying listening to the waves. Thanks – we hope to return. The Webb's & Extended Family
