My family and I have stayed in several nice places in Carmel in the last few years, and liked this one best of all. It's spacious and elegant/modern-feeling, and the location is terrific, just minutes to the beach or a pleasant walk to downtown.
We enjoyed staying in watching movies in front of the fireplace, and there's a great outdoor patio as well. Wonderful place to relax for a weekend or a while longer.

Our stay could not have been any better. The house wash gorgeous, clean, comfortable and spacious. We enjoyed the outdoor patio and the easy walk to the beach. We would definitely come back.

Beautiful house that was even closer to the beach than we realized it would be. The house is very clean and well stocked. We loved the location and found it easy to walk to town or drive. Not sure what parking would be like during busier months. The only downside to the house is the 3rd bedroom opens to the upstairs and there is no closet. It makes a nice office but is not a full bedroom. Overall, wonderful house that I would come back to.

My husband and I brought our two young kids and the grandparents along for a wonderful stay in Carmel! This was our second visit to Carmel-by-the-Sea, and having previously stayed in a hotel, this home and the neighborhood blew us away!
The house was stocked with everything we needed to feel comfortable - beach towels, cooking supplies, wine glasses, etc! We loved the layout - perfect for our family with two master suites and a pull-out couch for the kids - and all of the natural light that poured in through large windows and skylights. The house was clean, check-in process easy, and all I can say is location, location, LOCATION! We were an easy walk away from both Carmel Beach and Carmel River State Beach, a few minutes drive from Point Lobos State Natural Reserve, the Ocean Avenue shops, and Carmel Valley wineries, and we enjoyed just walking around the lovely neighborhood, enjoying the architecture and gardens. We made some wonderful memories. Can't wait until our next visit!

Friends and I enjoyed a wonderful stay in this beautiful, tranquil, comfortable home. The location is very charming with Carmel and beaches within walking or short driving distance. I would happily recommend this property for friends and family traveling. We had a great time and hope to return for an additional stay in the future.

The beds were really great. Nice sheets. Although we didn’t cook the kitchen was very well stocked. No scratched non-stick frying pans here! Would stay again.

The home was well designed, open to the outdoors (surrounding outdoor decks with gas fireplace). Downstairs had two bedrooms with den and bathroom. Upstairs had master bedroom, LR (with fireplace), DR (seats 8 comfortably) and wonderfully designed/well-organized kitchen (everything you needed!). There was a 6 minute walk to a beautiful white sandy beach with blue, rhythmic waves. We were enchanted and the amenities were first class. Sparkly new, with Ritz-Carlton clean. Definitely will go there again! Close to many great breakfast and dinner restaurants as well.

This is a perfect place for family getaways because the property contains top notch amenities, super clean and well maintained, close to (multiple) beaches, super quiet neighborhood, can roast marshmallows, and my kids love running up and down the stairs, close to Carmel downtown and Monterey, etc. We were very happy with the stay and will definitely revisit.

Beautiful home! We loved our stay. Loved we could bring our Golden Retriever as well- She loved being at the beach with us. We enjoyed many walks to town...the home was well appointed and every thing was so clean and new. Much appreciated all the thoughtful details! My kids loved the S'mores! Thank you again! Lisa & Family.

The place is designed to delight. This is not a rental situation but a home that someone has put a lot of care into. Big and little touches such as the s’more kit electronic shades make the stay feel luxurious. The house itself and the location all feel luxury as well. I had a great time.

It's tough to find a nice house to rent in Carmel without paying a lot. This one fit the bill. Not only is everything new and up to date, but the kitchen is well stocked with lots of nice extras. The master and downstairs bedroom are great, the hide-a-couch downstairs is a little funky because it's in a very small room where a big portion of the ceiling is open to the upper floor. Noise and light move freely from the upper to lower floor. There is also a futon which is better for sleeping down there, but no privacy. These options would be fine for kids or teens but weren't great for our 30-year-old son and his wife. The outside deck is excellent, and the location is great if you want to be close to the beach. It's about a mile walk into the center of town, which we didn't mind, but some might. I would highly recommend this property if you're looking for a get-away to Carmel.

The property manager was AMAZING! Very quick to respond when we needed help with a personal issue. The house is well equipped, very clean and offers several places to relax with a good book! The close proximity to the ocean was great! Thank you so much to all involved with this great home.

This is one of the nicer rental homes I’ve stayed in-beautifully and tastefully remodelled, practical and beautiful floors. The kitchen was well appointed and everything we needed was there, including coffee and s’mores supplies. The house prioritized light and an open feel over sound proofing— the downstairs bonus room has ceiling open to upstairs living room so sound carries up and downstairs. If everyone on same sleeping schedule, that is not a problem.

Beautiful 2 bedroom home. There is space with a pull out couch in the lower level for a potential 3rd bedroom, but it is open to the upstairs and could potentially be noisy. Home has all the amenities you need including a well stocked kitchen and nice outdoor space. Location is walking distance to the beach as well as to town with shops and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again.

There is nothing not to like about Isabella by the Sea. It is in a perfect location - a 5 minute walk to a spectacular beach with breathtaking views. A quick ride or walk to town - shops, restaurants, grocery store. Everything is right around the corner. Great neighborhood.
The house is beautiful. It is very up to date with a beautiful kitchen and bathrooms. The house has everything you need and is immaculate.
This vacation was worth every penny. You will not be disappointed.

Lovely home and well-equipped. Newly and taste-fully renovated. All kitchen appliances are high end. Clean and welcoming.
Literally 2 blocks from the ocean. We walked or jogged the Scenic Drive at least once or twice a day. Deck is wonderful. Feels very private even though nestled between other homes. The location is fantastic: easy access to town if you want (walkable) but easy to just be by the ocean in minutes-- in a quiet less busy part of town.
