I had my service dog w me on this visit to Carmel. I arrived early and though it was a busy weekend, Mike at the front desk called me when my room was ready - about an hr b4 check in! The room was great & was able to park right in frt of the room on the 4th floor!! A beautiful balcony w an ocean view, king bed & fireplace! I will be back.

The property and room are gorgeous with a great view of the ocean and a wonderful deck! There is a fireplace in every room and very spacious. The bed and pillows are extremely comfortable and if you open the windows you can hear the roar of the ocean. No noisy traffic or bright lights at night. Everything is spotless and the front desk person is so helpful and kind. It is especially amazing for the price and quality also it is a perfect location downtown with a little store next door. One of our favorite hotels, the pictures do not do it justice. We will always choose this hotel when staying in Carmel.

I've stayed at several inns in Carmel over the years and for the price you can't beat the location, parking and breakfast. Will most certainly stay again.

I had an absolutely amazing time at Carmel Bay View Inn! The customer service was amazing and the young man that checked us in was so helpful and took the time to recommend some restaurants and sight seeing in the area. The room was super clean and I couldn’t recommend this more ! Amazing location close to so many restaurants as well. Thank you Carmel Bay View Inn!
