Quiet Ocean View Villa, Carmel, CA. short walk to town, the beach, the mission.

My sisters, our daughters and my mom rented this house to celebrate her 80th birthday. The seven of us had a wonderful time. Vaughn and Pat were very responsive hosts, and we loved all the welcoming touches the house had with coffee, snacks and wine. Our stay started off rocky due to an Alaska Airlines IT outage that delayed our arrival by a day, and Vaughn and Pat were very accommodating and offered us an extra day. Their quick communication made our stressful travel a bit easier. Also, the pictures don't do the view from the living room of the ocean justice! It was an easy drive to downtown Carmel. We'd definitely stay again.

The villa is even more beautiful than it appears in the photos. With a view of the water, the mountains, and the Mission, it’s just breathtaking. You can sit outside on the expansive balcony and just watch the sights and see the light change the views. The villa is also gorgeous and beyond well appointed. Vaughn and Pat have thought of everything. From a fridge that had some basics in it like milk, half and half, butter, juice, cheese, wine, water and other items to a tremendously well stocked coffee station, it was above and beyond. Vaughn and Pat are also very friendly and were responsive to all of our needs and questions. They are truly a pleasure. The villa is also in a fabulous location. You are just a little over a half a mile from the heart of Carmel and while the walk to town is a little hilly, it’s gorgeous with much of the walk done on well groomed trails. If you choose not to walk, Ubers are plentiful, quick and cheap so once you’re at the villa, you only need to drive if you want to explore up or down the coast. My wife and I will definitely be visiting again, and highly recommend the property for your trip.

Wonderful home! We enjoyed the hosts. They were helpfuland friendly.

Beautiful villa with magnificent views. Our hosts, Vaughn and Pat were very helpful and very kind throughout our stay. We will come again!

A magical home in a magical place with so much to see and do - even some within walking distance! If you have the chance, this is a home you need to experience and enjoy!

Fantastic I will definitely come again.

The property was in superb condition on arrival and met all of our expectations. We honestly didn’t know what to expect because all arrangements were made via the internet. We found the owners, Vaughn and Pat to be friendly and accommodating. We were very pleased with our stay and we highly recommend this venue.

This was our fourth visit - so needless to say we love the place. Very comfortable and well stocked. Vaughn and Pat are incredibly helpful with any needs.

Nice and quiet. Beautiful view. Unit exceeded our expectations. Would stay again.

Could not have asked for a better holiday. The house was fantastic. The location even better. Ongoing dialogue with the owners was great. The property included everything we needed and you are very close to town to the extent you need something else. We really enjoyed our time there with our family.
