About this property

Carmel Highlands Home w/ Expansive Ocean Views! 5 min from Point Lobos!

Newly renovated and furnished with high-end accents, Nirvana By the Sea is the epitome of luxury living. Conveniently located on a tranquil street off of Route 1, the beautifully structured four-level home offers sweeping coastal views and deck access from every room the minute you walk into the home.

A 2-car stone accented garage offers great curb appeal and steps to the left of driveway descend to a courtyard leading to the double-doored mudroom/main entrance.

Upon entering, you’re welcomed by a blush and coral-themed living room with motorized blinds that open to expansive coastal views, high ceilings, and skylight windows allowing for abundant light even on overcast days. A wide tan leather sectional, down-filled throw pillows, a swivel accent chair, window and fireplace seating allows for plenty of seating when hosting.

With a fully-equipped kitchen on the left with adjacent bar seating and a dining area all sharing the same breathtaking views, preparing and enjoying meals is no longer a chore.

A few steps up from the family room and kitchen is a den with a wet bar, more ocean views, and a deck with a grill and seating to accommodate 6, making it the perfect spot for entertaining. One garage has a vintage pool table placed in front of a window with an ocean view.

The beautifully structured multi-level layout offers privacy between entertaining areas and the bedrooms, with each of the rooms thoughtfully decorated to cater to a different color palette within the coastal theme - a terracotta and neutral themed master with terracotta and earthy accents, Sage and olive green room, and nautical blue and white themed room.

The master bedroom has a California king bed, a seating area with an electric fireplace with a wall-mounted QLED TV as well as a walk-in closer and double vanity bathroom with a jetted tub and oversized shower.

A few steps down from the master are bedrooms #2 and #3 each with Queen beds and a full bath as well as the laundry room with a Samsung Bespoke Wifi-equipped front load washer and dryer.

An extra long deck connects bedrooms #2 and #3 and stairs from the main entrance and the decks from these bedrooms lead to a meandering path through lush gardens at the bottom of the house.

Bliss
We had a great stay in this ocean view house. The house is located in between Carmel and Bug Sur which was ideal for us. Most beautiful hikes followed by breathtaking ocean views at home. Will definitely be back!

One of our all time favorite VRBOs!!!
What a gorgeous home, with amazing views, lovely interior, and very well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed sipping our coffee and looking out at the ocean every morning. Our host, Hirsch, was AMAZING! He made check-in easy and was super responsive and helpful. He even sent us chocolates because it was our anniversary! This truly was one of our favorite VRBOs of all time and we hope to be able to return soon!

Stunning property, amazing location and views! :)
The property is amazing! Beautifully presented, the owner has really put a lot of love and soul into making it a “home”- welcoming, cared for, extremely clean and the decor is stunning! Bright, airy, light- the views are breathtaking and It feels like you’re home when you walk through the door at the end of a day of exploring all the wonderful things to do - this is a perfect location for Carmel, Monterey, Big Sur and several of the incredible State Parks- truly a fantastic home in an amazing place! The kitchen is also extremely well equipped if you like to cook- the views from the table and Outdoor decks make it tough to leave and go out to eat- so we also capitalized on the opportunity to cook and eat “ at home” several times during the week we spent there. Hirsh, the Host- is an absolute pleasure to deal with- super responsive and so accommodating! I’m not one for leaving reviews- however, I really wanted to share what a lovely experience my family and I had- my scorecard is A+++ for EXCELLENT! 😊 Hirsh- thanks so much- I would love to come back sometime in the future and will highly recommend to everyone! Many thanks! 🙏 Karen G

Best rental in Carmel
We come to the Carmel area 1-2 times every year for the last decade and this has been our favorite rental house we’ve ever stayed at. The home was even nicer in person than the photos. It felt like staying at a private villa in a luxury resort. Everything has been provided. We really liked that the main area was kept with some of its original character, while the primary suite and 2 bedrooms have been beautifully redone. Although the May gray weather of California didn’t grant us any sunsets, there is a perfect view of it on every level. The upstairs office couch is the perfect nap spot BTW. Hirsh was very quick to communicate and a really generous host. He even sent us chocolates on our birthday and offered to extend our checkout time without prompt! We can’t wait to come stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Hirsh Bhatt

Host profile image
A Hollywood agent in the making with a passion for hosting wonderful people in my childhood home! Love to make people feel like this is their home and love to go the extra mile to make people feel like this home is theirs while there.

Why they chose this property

I have a love for interior design and decorated the house with only the best, despite knowing it will be a rental. While renovating, I made sure to modernize the home adding amenities such as motorized roller blinds and a jetted tub, while still preserving the character of the home such as the dark Spanish tile and wood-paneled walls in the den.

This is perfect for people who appreciate the little details such as a unique, thoughtful color scheme to each of the rooms done with high-end stores from LA and the Carmel area.
