Located just 10-15mins away from downtown Carmel, it was a pleasant stay with my dog. We stayed here 2 nights and can’t really complain about anything. Reasonable pricing

Marcia, 1-night trip

Beautiful neighborhood. Very quiet. The beach was a mile walk downhill but going back was a bit tough. I would stay there again.

8/10 Good

Great value for the price and location.
Vanessa, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was a charming resort. Most are individual cottages--some with a common wall. Easy parking. Very private and quiet. Very convenient with fridge, microwave and table with two chairs. Good Internet (no cell service). I'd stay here again.

The cosy cabins are a great hideaway.
Jose, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

It's a very old property but in working order. Very clean which is great! It's a 15 minute walk from downtown but easier to just drive. Parking was a big plus. Slightly expensive for what you get.

Rob, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Parking was tight but everything else is good
PANCHALINGAM, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

We enjoyed the stay and would stay again but in a different room. The room walls were a bit thin as we could hear the neighbors conversations pretty clearly and we found the motion sensor bathroom lights/exhaust fan a bit obnoxious but overall it was a good room with comfy bedding and a good amount of amenities. You get a designated parking spot which was great. The fountain/pond area was nice at night but be aware there’s quite a few critters roaming around, they weren’t an issue but it’s worth noting.
Jennifer, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

Great stay! But my only complaint is the lack of service in the area. No cell service and the WIFI did not work. That is the only complaint for me other than that everything was clean, accessible, and affordable.
