We loved everything about our stay in Carmel. The house was incredibly located, charming and had everything one could need. We were there two weeks and could have stayed forever. The house is cozy and comfortable. It is even prettier than the pictures. Can't wait to go back!

This place is all about location. You are walking distance to not one but 2 beaches just minutes away! The golden rectangle is about a 20 minute walk. You can choose to walk the streets of Carmel and see all the interesting houses, or take the path that runs alongside the beach. The house was well kept and the kitchen well equipped. TV reception was a bit spotty and there is no DVD player as listed. The two bed/two bathroom setup is great. Washer and dryer are also a big plus when staying at the beach. There is a cozy fireplace as well, which is nice on a fall evening. All in all a great stay.

Wonderful 8 nights at the Cottage. Relaxing and comfortable home environment. Patio sunny in the morning and moon and stars at night. Walk a few blocks to access 2 different Carmel beaches. Nice to walk the neighborhood and appreciate the unique, beautiful architecture of each home. Karen was very easy to communicate with.

A remarkable stay. The cottage by the sea was everything as listed…. And more. It was wonderful to be away from the crowds and enjoy the beauty of Carmel. Morning walks were perfect with great views of the ocean and the lovely properties near by. We certainly will visit again.

Wonderful stay at Sea Cottage! Comfortable, convenient, and close walking distance to two beaches and the center of town. Karen was immediately responsive to 2 questions we had before our stay. There were no issues or concerns during our 8 night stay. Nice fenced yard for our dog. We could not have asked for a more wonderful place to stay to enjoy Carmel. Thank you Karen!

Magical Carmel

Great location, easy access to the downtown and Carmel Valley. Residence was nicely furnished and well equipped. Only negative for us was the tv was difficult to use (big remote didn’t work and limited instructions) and the bath towels should be upgraded.
