Carmel is a wonderful place to visit, we were lucky that the weather was so GOOD. The town has many great shops, restaurants and art galleries. It is a wonderful pace to celebrate a special occasion and there is Pebble Beach and the 17 mile drive!!AAnonymousUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

Carmel is a cute, charming seaside town with plenty of shopping and restaurants. Mostly all parking is on-street parallel parking. The Adobe Inn, where we stayed, is located within a block of all the restaurants and shops and even has its own parking garage located below the Inn. At night the town pretty much clears out after 9 or 10, but walking back to the Inn felt safe. The town is also a great base if you are planning on visiting Monterey, 17 Mile Drive, or Big Sur.MariettaUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

Carmel is the jewel in the PCH crown. A beautiful spot with its own personality. The cutest shops, amazing food and outstanding beaches. Super close to Big Sur and also the 17 Mile Drive - make sure you visit Peeble Beach Golf Club!

The morning and afternoon is the best time to spend it in Carmel. During night time it’s not lit up as you think it would be. But during the day it’s absolutely amazing. All the shops, cafes, restaurants. The walking. Everything is near by. The beach to the town is like 10 min walk. We stayed for 3 nights and 4 daysAAnonymous - 10Scored 10

The little cottage like room was cute and clean, so nice to be able to take our little dog with us, nice to have our own parking space, our door didn’t lock and a staff member fixed it right away, hoping to stay in another little cabin soon, this is our second time, our first cabin had a living room, and spacious. Had breakfast at the tuck box, the tea and scones delicious along with fluffy omelette so Yummy can’t wait to come backMaryUnited States of America

- From $425.25 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 433 reviewsCarmel-by-the-Sea is riddled with small charming boutique style accommodations. All of them are unique, but the Tradewinds I find is the most modern and updated as far as design aesthetic goes within a reasonable nightly rate. The rooms are updated, the property is minimal with a buddha fountain and outdoor tables if you want to enjoy a glass of wine or your hotel breakfast, but a majority of your stay should be visiting the beaches and walking about the town.KariUnited States of America
- From $321.64 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 1,953 reviewsThe property is right off Hwy 1 and very conveniently located for you to get to Big Sur and only a couple of minutes away from Carmel by the Sea. Across the street is also a grocery store, coffee shop, and lots of dining options. The property is nice and clean with a mid modern century vibe. We paid for deluxe room with a balcony and views overlooking the pool and mountains. Also free parking and Wi-Fi is a bonus.AAnonymousUnited States of America
- From $276.63 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 1,212 reviewsIts a neat, simple hotel, and well located in Carmel. Easy to walk down to main Carmel streets for accessing restaurants and shops. We had a room on the top floor - which had an outstanding view of the Carmel town and a sea view. The property is located on a slight incline - which makes the views even better. Rooms are spacious, but simple.
SalilIndia - 8.6Scored 8.6ExcellentRated excellent· 838 reviewsCharming boutique Inn built in the 1940's but well maintained. REAL fireplaces in the rooms! Excellent hot breakfast. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Reasonably close to the main street in downtown Carmel. Carmel is "downhill" from the Inn...a nice walk to the town but best to Uber/Lyft back to the Inn after dinner.
GaryUnited States of America - From $277.14 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 489 reviewsIt's a gem. I truly love that area the Carmel. River, There was one of the biggest gathering places for native Tribes. You're in the most perfect place. Because you can go to the beach, you can go to The Valley. You could easily go down the coast. You easily make it into Monterey. And it's really a beautiful place to stay.
