It's also just a 3 minute walk to the famous Carmel Mission Basilica Museum and to Carmel Mission Ranch where you can enjoy dinner or Sunday brunch with an ocean and pasture view of grazing sheep.

Downtown Carmel is an easy 10 minute walk passing wine tasting rooms, restaurants, galleries, Nielsen’s gourmet deli and the Sunset Center. Point Lobos State Natural Reserve hiking area is just a five minute drive from the house.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Sea Salt and Caramel worked out jut fine. The location is perfect for anyone looking for quiet, walks to the beach, and lots of light. Nice for two singles or a family of four. Tight for four adults or more. A nice, downstairs guest suite provides extra privacy. Beautiful backyard, pretty to look at, less so for anything else. It worked well for two adults and a Doodle.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was my second month long stay in this lovely house. And I have already rented it again for next year! What is not to love. The location is quiet and removed from the often times congested downtown area, yet close enough to stroll into town whenever you want. I call this house “my treehouse” because the views from the living room and kitchen make me feel like I’m resting in treetops looking out over the hills in the Carmel River area. Sanctuary staff were always attentive and very helpful. The house was clean and very comfy. Can’t recommend it enough.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is as good or better than the pictures! My wife and I travelled with our twin 3-year old's and it was the perfect setup. The downstairs was great for the kids to play while the adults could enjoy upstairs. The house was spotless on arrival and the housekeeping service was excellent for the duration.
The house is about a 12-15 minute walk to Ocean Avenue or 15 minute walk to the beach (Carmel River State Beach). There is also a wonderful elementary school within a 10 minute walk with two playgrounds for children.
Overall, we were thrilled with the house, the location, and overall experience. Would book again!
