Top Carmel River State Beach Hotel Reviews
Carmel Mission Inn
10/10 Excellent
"Great service not in downtown did have to uber"
Pine Inn
10/10 Excellent
"We plan to return to the Pine Inn at a future date. The old world charm and being so close to shops and dining was what attracted us to the Pine Inn."
Carmel Bay View Inn
10/10 Excellent
"Great stay. Really nice property, located in the centre of town, staff couldn’t be more helpful, room was great; highly recommended."
Cypress Inn
10/10 Excellent
"The cutest hotel I have stayed in while travelling around California. I love it and all the doggies surrounding me ♥️🐶"
La Playa Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Great boutique hotel in Carmel. Close to the main areas in Carmel. Great customer service. Lovely comfortable rooms while not huge are beautiful furnished. Great free extras provided from early morning coffee, a delicious buffet breakfast with egg station, afternoon wine and not forgetting the wonderful chocolate chip cookies in the evening. A real treat."
3897 Driftwood - Walk to Beach & Mission, Hot Tub
8/10 Good
"Enjoyed the hot tub. The property is very nice, but could use some new upholstery on the sofas and a new area rug in the great room. The beds and bedding were nice. The master bath was new and looked very modern. The kitchen was clean and modern.We had an issue with the smoke alarm going off two separate times late one night. Eventually someone came to take the battery out. The gentleman who came to help us understand the TV and how to program it, was very helpful.We would rent this property again."
Completely renovated Mid-Century Modern on Carmel Point - with EV Charger!
10/10 Excellent
"Amazing house with great communication from the host about every detail, clear labeling and instructions, all new kitchen. Love the artistic decor, furniture, etc. short walk to the beach. Impeccable taste and the Aunt Sophie theme was entertaining and instructive. Highly recommended!"
3867 Dolce Tempo~ Quiet Area, Walk to Town & Beach
10/10 Excellent
"The house was lovely and in a great location to walk around Carmel and to the beach. Everything was well laid out and comfortable. Beds were great and everyone slept well. The one tricky piece was the navigation to the property -"
'Carmel Tranquility' 2 Beaches 6 and 9mins walk from a bright & airy beach home
8/10 Good
"Great place that in our opinion is actually nicer than the photos indicate. The garage that has been turned into a playroom was a huge hit for our kids. They especially loved the boombox that plays CDs and cassettes! We unfortunately had to deal with an ant invasion while we were there, but the property manager was very responsive in providing bait that was stronger than the plastic Raid traps scattered about the house. Property is located at the southern end of town, which requires either a drive or 15 minute walk into the center of Carmel by the Sea. Carmel River State Beach is about a 1/2-mile south."
