About this house rental
Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Carmel Nest"! This home sleeps 6 to 8 guests.
This home is a 2,650 sf classic Mid-Century Modern with a Carmel, California twist. With 3 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 2 living room/media areas, it’s a good base for your coastal adventure.
Living Spaces
A drought-resistant, beautifully-landscaped front yard and stone patio, welcome you to the property. A Dutch door leads to a roomy foyer with high ceilings that features an open wood staircase leading up to the primary suite, and access to a charming brick patio. Two chaise lounges, 2 chairs and a gas grill make for a relaxing outdoor experience.
Wood-paneled walls adorn most rooms, while floors are brick or richly-hued wood. Off the entry, you’ll find a family room with wood flooring and two sofas, one of which opens to a queen sofa bed. The room is equipped with a sink, microwave and a 46” TV. The fireplace is decorative only.
A media room off the kitchen has brick flooring accented with a colorful rug. Enjoy your favorite programming on the 42” TV, while lounging comfortably on the large sofa, or one of 2 roomy chairs. This room is also home to the washer and dryer.
Kitchen and Dining
The kitchen is covered in rich-wood floors and a skylight that brightens the space. A breakfast nook sits next to a window where you can enjoy the morning sun. Gourmet appliances include a 6-burner gas Zline range, Samsung refrigerator with 2 freezer drawers and an in-door water/ice dispenser, Bosch dishwasher and all the small appliances you’ll need for a great stay. The center of the kitchen is u-shaped with a stone countertop that accommodates seating for two. Both Keurig and drip coffee makers provide options for your morning brew.
The formal dining room is set with a wood table and 6 chairs. Two comfy occasional chairs occupy opposite corners.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Bedroom #1: Take the stairs in the foyer to the primary suite which occupies the upper floor. The spacious suite boasts striking wood floors, a king bed in a seagrass bed frame, nightstands with lamps, a comfy chair and a 50” TV set on an Asian themed dresser. The en suite bath features stone tile flooring, a large shower, a closet and a Toto toilet.
Downstairs, Bedroom #2 features a king bed, twin nightstands with lamps, a dresser, 2 chairs and an en suite bathroom. A stone tile floor graces the bathroom that includes a shower over tub, a commode and a closet where linens are tucked neatly away.

The 4th full bathroom is located inside the media room and it has a standing shower.
It’s a short drive or walk to town along the quiet streets. Stroll down Ocean Avenue to the sandy stretch of beach, one of the only area beaches where dogs can frolic off-leash. Explore the streets of the village where you’ll find wine tasting venues, gourmet grocery stores and delis, world-class restaurants, cafes, shops and art galleries. A short drive takes you to The Crossroads, The Barnyard and Carmel Rancho shopping centers where you’ll find even more services, restaurants and shopping. Plan a day trip or two to explore Carmel Valley, Big Sur, Pacific Grove and Monterey and discover the unique aspects of the Monterey Peninsula.

We stayed with friends and family at 3855 Carmel Nest in late July for 6 nights. The house was very spacious, clean and comfortable. It has multiple areas to hang-out, watch TV or play games so that the kids and adults can do individual activities whenever wanted. The house is walking distance to downtown Carmel but it is a tougher walk back from downtown due to the hilly nature of Carmel by the Sea. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay, and we will be back in the future.

This property is great for groups. We had six adults and one toddler, and there was plenty of space of all of us to be comfortable. Each of the three bedrooms has its own bathroom, and there is an extra bathroom in one of the family rooms. There are two "wings" of the house located on either side of the foyer, with bedrooms and family rooms on each side. The kitchen is well equipped and pleasant. The property management company was very helpful and professional. I would definitely use them again.

Loved visiting this area for the Big Sur Marathon weekend. This house was in a great location and very comfortable. Lots of space. We will definitely be back.

Overall our stay was great. The home is beautiful and in a wonderful location. We were able to walk to town from the house which was nice. Unfortunately the heater was not working properly during our stay. The property management team was prompt about responding and sending someone out to look at it, but it was a more complicated fix and could not be fixed during our stay. The management team was helpful and worked with me on this issue which I appreciated. Even with the heater issue, we still enjoyed our stay here and especially loved exploring Carmel and the surrounding towns.

+ The house is well equipped. Property management very responsive. Easy check in. Clean & plenty of space. Good quiet location. Easy access to Carmel, beaches, state parks, Monterey etc. A lovely time
- We found the beds uncomfortably squishy. Platforms protrude about 4 inches beyond mattresses -- bumping hazard esp in the dark. Also pillows are some weird lumpy foam.
4.8
We enjoyed our stay. The house had two separate "wings" which made for a good amount of privacy for all of us. We loved that each bedroom (+ media room) had a bathroom. We would have preferred firmer beds. Also, the driving directions were confusing and didn't work for us (driving south on hgwy 1). We ended up using GPS and it worked out fine. You may want to consider removing those directions from the documents you send out to renters. The property managers were very responsive when I needed to communicate with them. Thank you for that!

Our Senior girls in High School wanted to take a trip with their mothers for Sprjng Break and this was the best trip. The house was amazing with many seating places we could use for our group. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The house was walkable to the town if people wanted to go down the beach or get coffee in town. Lots of beautiful flowers around too to enjoy. Thanks for a lovely stay and for the memories.

Both bedrooms on the street level do not have walk in showers which makes it difficult for those who have difficulty stepping into a tub . The house was very nice and clean and a great location

Our stay was incredible! First, the proximity to Carmel Beach was awesome. It was at most a 5 minute drive. Second, the place was spacious and incredibly large and accommodating. The place also had incredibly new kitchen appliances and washing machines, etc.

I rented this house for myself and family members to stay for my daughters wedding. It was perfect for our needs. Every bedroom was nice and had its own bathroom. The foyer and connecting yard are beautiful. The home is well stocked and beautifully decorated. We would definitely stay here again.

We gathered here as a family to participate in a familial wedding. We had three separate couples and a single and everyone was content with their bedrooms and ensuite. We loved the angularity of the house inside and the many common rooms. The kitchen worked well although we mostly ate out. All the appliances are there and a washer and dryer. Ironing board and iron provided as well. Never watched the TVs although there seemed like one in every room! The neighborhood is great, walkable and friendly. The location is excellent and the whole area is quiet. When not at functions we spent our time walking the beaches in Carmel and Monterey. Endless beach! The weather was spectacularly sunny and pleasant. Not the usual, I gathered. The company and people were easy to work with and the pictures are what's there and much more. Don't hesitate to rent this property.

We had a lovely stay at the Carmel Nest! The location is great -- easy to get to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea or on the highways to nearby towns, and a beautifully quiet neighborhood. The home is beautifully appointed and well-cared-for. I enjoyed working on the back patio while my dog lounged in the sun, and the kids loved having a second "kids room."

Family of six with 2 dogs had a pleasant stay at Carmel Nest. There was plenty of space for all of us to enjoy time together but also private time. Location is a bit far from the beach but we made the walk back and forth a couple of times during our stay. Very peaceful location.

4 nights, golf trip, 3 60 yr old men, we each had our own bedroom and full baths with showers; did not cook on the property; very nice; professionally handled; can’t think of any flaws whatsoever, other than we all wished our mattresses were a bit nicer/firmer;

We had two families and dogs with us and this was a great place to stay. The rooms are far enough apart that it felt like we had our own spaces, but there are a few common areas to come together. The kitchen is well stocked, the house is clean, and Carmel is lovely. We had a great time and will certainly come back.

We were a group of six adults in town for a wedding. As other reviewers mentioned the layout of the house is a bit of a maze. But that split floor plan did allow for everyone in our group to have their own private space. So, while it is strange, it did work for us.
We had some issues with the cleanliness and the rental company addressed them right away. Hopefully the guests that stay after us won't have the same experience.
The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe.
Overall we had a nice stay.

Property is not what it appears to be. Additions done haphazardly and not all rooms have heat. Kitchen is very small and not equipped as would be expected. Bring your own knives as the larger carving knives will only cut butter.

This large, clean, well appointed and comfortable home is in a quiet neighborhood. All three bedrooms with their own baths are comfortable and well appointed. The kitchen is modern and a pleasure to cook in. The outdoor patio is private and lovely landscaped. A large living room, dinning room and extra media room with another full bath and laundry made for a perfect stay. We recommend this property and will plan to stay here again when we return to Carmel. Sanctuary Vacation staff checked in with us and we’re available for any requests or concerns. A great experience overall. Thank you!

Quiet neighborhood. can walk to Ocean Ave. House is in good condition. Beds were too soft/old and bedding too thick (too hot).

The house was one of 8 properties we booked for Monterey car week. It was the perfect place to house colleagues and retreat from the daily hustle of our event. My only wish is that the team wasn't working so hard so they could have enjoyed the property more!!! Would book here again next year!
