This property is very well appointed, with so many features you might not want to leave the house! It is conveniently located, with easy access to hiking, shopping, beach walks, and almost anything you would want to do. The house was extremely well appointed and supplied. Callie was a host extraordinaire! She was there to greet us when we arrived to show us how to operate some of the features of the house we might not be familiar with, from the hot tub to the outdoor propane heaters, and more! She was easily available for any questions we had always providing quick helpful suggestions. I would highly recommend this clean, spacious house for your visit to the area.

We visited the area for a few days only, primarily to go whale watching. Callie our host was great at communicating and trying to make sure our visit was successful. I loved that she took an interest in our overall experience rather than focusing on endless "house rules" like some owners do. Our trip was a big success, I wish we had stayed longer. The house was great, I would definitely book again when I next come to the area.

Thanks so much Chris! I’m so glad you got to see 2 whales breaching at the same time right at the start! Its magic isnt it? For sure, your overall experience is more important than the endless lists of house rules! Thanks for noticing! I hope you can come agsin sometime.

We had such a wonderful stay! The views were absolutely incredible, and the hot tub was the perfect way to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. You can tell so much thought and attention went into the home-from the beautiful décor to all of the little details that made it feel extra special.We especially appreciated how well-stocked everything was, including coffee and kitchen essentials, which made settling in so easy. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and everything about our stay felt seamless and welcoming.Overall, an amazing experience in Carmel. We would absolutely stay here again and hope to be back!

Callie was an incredible host that went above and beyond. She checked in before our stay with wonderful recommendations and the recommended Point Lobos hike was the highlight of the trip! The space was perfection, better than advertised and clean! Located close enough to town to walk was incredible on the busy weekend, I can’t recommend this stay enough

The house was beautiful. Spotlessly clean. Callie met us at the house and gave us a tour, showed us how to use the amenities. She was available to call when I had a question. She gave us tips on where to hike. The house is cozy, the beds comfortable, plenty of towels, blankets and kitchenware for 8 of us. I believe she is the best host I've had. Our group would love to rent the house again.
