The Home exceeded our expectations with a new chef’s kitchen-not pictured. We were within walking distance to town, the beach & close to the wedding festivities making everything convenient. We could not have asked for anything more!

The gardens are beautiful! The kitchen was very well appointed.
I had a medical emergency while in Monterey. Three of us had to leave early, leaving three of our party at the house. They had a wonderful time.
Charley was an immense help.

Beautiful house. Very nice floor plan for family gathering. Very well stocked kitchen. The patio reminded us of Italy. It was all one level which made it easy with the elder and the little. The property also includes a spa, steam room and small gym.
The check in process was easy and the house was very clean.

The home and garden were lovely, clean, and well-kept. It offered 3 comfortable sleeping rooms and 2 options for hanging out as a group. It is a pleasant 1/2 mile walk to the center of town.
The owners have a separate contract to be completed beyond the standard VRBO agreements; my first experience with an additional document. It listed a series of fees which did not correlate with those itemized on the VRBO site. The owner was less than gracious about my attempt to understand the fees and the additional document (perhaps all on me since I made the error of using the "customer service" link for VRBO which offered no meaningful help).

Mere words and a handful of pics can't adequately describe this extraordinary property - you must experience it to fully appreciate its superb location, spacious floor-plan, unique artwork/decor, the inviting back patio and garden area. The furnishings and bedding are top-notch affording much comfort and relaxation for the guests, the kitchen is fully stocked with cooking/dining ware to serve a large family, and the property is extremely well-maintained and cared for which allows a trouble-free stay for the renters. Compliments to the owners and the managers for ensuring that we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay in Carmel, and we look forward to a return visit in the not-so-distant future. Thank you for the privilege of vacationing in your magnificent home!

Great location for walking into Carmel or driving to other locations. Easy off street parking for three cars. Overly stocked kitchen allowing for us to cook anything we desired. Great place for a family gathering with a secure garden for the little ones and the dog to roam.
Poor internet connection so if you hope to work from your vacation spot forget it! Poor cell service. But everything else was most excellent!

3 couples, 3 bedrooms, 3 baths. Gorgeous garden and patio. The Wally to from town is steep and a good ½ mile to the edge of town. We certainly got our exercise! Great stay.

This property is close to all the restaurants and shops in beautiful Carmel-by-the-Sea. The home is very comfortable. Only suggestion, please get a new mattress for the primary bedroom. We were sinking in the middle a bit. We did sleep well, tired from all the walking and having fun. Other than that, everything was perfect. Sitting in the garden with a cup of coffee in the morning, heaven. The WiFi is slow, but we didn't mind. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home. Side note, we loved getting lunch at Carmel Belle. Rooftop at Vescuvio is always lovely for a drink and apps, or a full meal if you like. Thank you

Gorgeous home with lots of space
We rented this house for the Big Sur marathon, very conveniently located for drop off areas and finish line. Also very close to downtown Carmel by the Sea for restaurants. The house has two wings- one with three bedrooms and two full baths, and another with the media room and another full bath. This was ideal set up for my husband and me, our two kids, my parents, and a friend who was also running the marathon. He stayed in media room with own bathroom, while we and kids stayed in the wing with the bedrooms. Great kitchen and dining room, has has fireplace to keep things cozy on foggy mornings and then when the sun comes out the patio is gorgeous! Plenty of space for kids to cruise around, nice gas bbq grill, lovely gardens and hot tub was clutch to have pre and post race. Will be back! Thank you!!

The perfect getaway
This house was amazing!! We are 3 adults and two kids ages 8 and 2 who were looking for our first post pandemic getaway and this home was ideal. The 3 bedrooms were all large enough for us to have our own space but close enough to keep an ear out for small people. The kitchen was perfectly equipped with everything we needed and the outdoor space was peaceful and beautiful both day and night. The location is ideally located to shopping, dining and multiple beaches. This house was everything we needed for a weeklong getaway, including laundry. We will be looking for excuses to get back to this place again soon!

The location and property are fantastic!
This is the 3rd time we rented this property and it's top of the line for a family get together. We rented it for the US Open and this past week for the AT &T golf tournament.
Highly recommended!

Hatton House Carmel Castle
This home, with its many amenities, is exceptional! Gorgeous gardens with patio , spa, steam room, and work out room were like none we’ve experienced in a home rental on the Monterey Peninsula, and we’ve been visiting a couple times a year for many years! Walking distance to Carmel’s downtown shops and beach were an added bonus. Such a comfortable home for our family and family pet! We hope to return in 2022! Charley served as our host. She provided exceptional service ! Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your home and the charm of Carmel!

Annual pre Christmas retread
It is always a pleasure staying in this well-appointed stunning home; our third year would have been the 4th had it not been for covid last year. Charlie, the property manager, is always responsive if needed, and the home is beautifully maintained. We will be back next year! Happy holidays

Carmel visit
We enjoyed our visit to Carmel to spend time with family, Some of our group were not happy with the furnishings & smaller bedrooms. The outside garden is beautiful!
Our main problem was not enough towels, no hand towels or wash cloths and very little TP .

Very nice 3 bedroom with a beautiful garden
Very good location and a beautiful patio. 3 bedroom and 3 bathroom. Walking downhill to shopping and restaurants and the beach. Well supplied kitchen. We spent a lot of time on the outside patio. Hard to find 3 bedroom and 3 bathroom. Definitely would stay there again.

Amazing home and garden!
Checking in with Charley was smooth and personal. She met us for a quick tour and review the rules of the house. We stayed here for my daughter’s wedding, even though my daughter did not stay at this beautiful home she just was able to appreciate it and snapped a couple of pictures in her wedding dress. This place is a dream home and I will definitely return. I highly recommend it..

Great place near downtown Carmel
We had a wonderful stay at the Hatton House. We had a multi-generational family reunion and it was the perfect place for us to reconnect. Highlights of the property include its location (slightly hilly but easy walk to downtown and the beach - no need to search for parking!), the beautiful gardens that could be seen through the windows of the bedrooms, and the comfortable family room with the fireplace. I would highly recommend!

Beautiful home-and exactly as described
This was perfect for us. My husband and I and 2 over 18 kids. For the cost of 2 hotel rooms at the Marriot, we were able to take it advantage of this beautiful home, all the space, the beautiful garden area outside and a quiet peaceful environment. It is literally less than five minutes from the shops and restaurants on Ocean Avenue. We chose to drive just because the first half a mile or so doesn’t have a sidewalk and we didn’t want to walk especially at night but it is definitely doable. We would definitely stay again.

Getaway Staycation
Due to the pandemic we searched for a place that would make a good "staycation". We enjoyed the property very much and spent a lot of time in the kitchen cooking together and enjoying the cozy yet spacious home. The kitchen was well outfitted for cooking many different things which was a concern prior to arrival but we were pleased to find everything we needed! We also enjoyed the spa and steam room. We would definitely return to this location.

Gorgeous house, very comfortable
My family and I genuinely enjoyed our time at this house during a weekend celebrating a birthday in Carmel. The rooms were very comfortable and it was incredibly spacious for us and our dog, who loved the backyard. The check-in orientation was rather long and maybe unnecessarily thorough but the welcome was warm and our stay, memorable. I would absolutely book here again!

Perfect location!
We had an amazing time at this property. Beautiful house and so close to downtown Carmel. We walked down to the beach often (uphill on the way back). Such a beautiful area and nice neighborhood!

Our favorite house!
We love coming here. Always clean, high-end everything, very comfortable with the jacuzzi, workout room, beautiful patio, sauna, laundry and quiet. The master bed needs a new mattress and the workout room could use a tuneup but other than that we love it. Charlie is also very communicative and helpful if you need anything done. Highly recommend this house!!!

Carmel Central "Spanish VIlla"... Location Location Location
OMG!! From the moment you step into this spanish style villa you escape to a piece of heaven. Look no further... this is the ONLY place to stay in Carmel. 10 Min (0.5 miles) walk to Carmel Central. Everything you could ask for in ammenties, SPA, Workout room Sauna( however didn't use any due to COVID, but everything was immaculate. THe only thing is we had my just shy of 2 year old grandson with us...so lots of tempting things within easy reach...so caution there. We had a family of 5 , 4 adults and one toddler. Ample room for us and this property can easily accomodate 6-8 people. I would definately stay here again!!
