Stayed Feb 17, 2026Lovely private guest accommodations with hosts who have thought of everything! Really grateful for all the amenities provided and tailored treats. Great recommendations for local eats and walks/hikes. We didn't have to do any research at all, and loved all of our activities and meals. Really nice to be able to walk into town and to the beach through the carmel by the sea community. Very gracious and accommodating hosts that want you to enjoy your stay, very responsive and available should you have any questions. Everything inside spotless, comfortable and roomy, with all that you will need.

Stayed Feb 9, 2026My wife and I very much enjoyed our stay at David and Brenda’s. Their studio was well equipped, comfortable, clean and in a great location. Close enough to walk to everything but also very quiet and calm. Communication was excellent all the way through, they are very thoughtful and leave no stone unturned. We would not hesitate to stay in their studio again when returning to Carmel!

Stayed Dec 28, 2025Cute little place, close enough to the town centre to walk to dinner, yet in a quiet neighbourhood far from crowds. The hosts are very welcoming and responsive, and keep the studio really well stocked with small consumables for the kitchen and bathroom.

Stayed Oct 2, 2025This was the cutest , coziest, cottage home. Pictures were exactly what you stayed in. We stayed for our 27th Wedding Anniversary and it was perfect. The hosts communicated well and left us a nice bottle of our favorite wine. Very sweet of them. Such a beautiful getaway and super close the the beach. The area was so lovely with all of the trees and plants. Almost like a cottage in the forest. Loved it.

Super clean, extremely comfortable and fully stocked. We were even gifted a bottle of wine to celebrate! Location was great. Close to town but outside of the hustle. Five minute drive to shops and restaurants and we did not have trouble finding parking. Again…five stars. Thanks for being wonderful host

Stayed Jun 11, 2025What a wonderful property! Everything ( and I mean EVERYTHING ) about this property was amazing . Brenda and Dave are the best hosts. They provide anything you would ever need during your stay , not to mention added “extra’s” like a bottle Chardonnay for my wife and soft drinks and water for me. The property itself is charming , from a cozy private patio to the comfy bed and lush grounds. Just a long walk or very short drive to restaurants, shops and the OCEAN with amazing sunsets. You wont find a better place to stay in Carmel bythe Sea.

Stayed May 10, 2025We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your cozy studio suite in a peaceful location very close to Carmel. The surrounding gardens were exquisite and magical. David and Brenda, our hosts, were very welcoming, and communicated very promptly and included a variety of suggestions for hikes, restaurants, and nearby attractions. After a full day of exploring, it was wonderful to return to our delightful accommodation and very comfortable bed, Thank you so much, Brenda and David, for a very memorable stay in beautiful Carmel. Sincerely, Lynda & Rob

Stayed Mar 26, 2025My wife and I stayed in Carmel for our first time.Location and neighborhood is perfect. Not far from Safeway Grocery store to get the essentials.Check in was super easy and the communication with the host was instantaneous. We received many recommendations and guidance.Upon our arrival, we found a bottle of red wine waiting for us. :-) Coffee and water (sparkling and still) was also provided! The kitchenette is well stocked to make a sandwich or salad. The bed was comfortable. It is a queen size. We normally sleep in a King but for 4 nights we survived.The front yard is lovely and has plenty of options to enjoy your morning coffee or evening wine.All in all we loved it and would come back someday!

Stayed Sep 6, 2024Very hospitable hosts. Provided coffee and other beverages. A couple suggestions: please provide a motion sensor light near the entry door - returned one evening, it was dark and struggled with the key for a few minutes (hands were full and could not access phone flashlight). Also, the mini fridge should have an “open here” sign, pointing to the left side - both my husband and I opened the door from the top and scraped our knuckles - ouch!
