We booked this suite along with the rest of the larger house for our wedding weekend. It was the perfect location and beautiful home. It was spacious enough for our group of 9 and also held several get togethers for our wedding. The hot tub was an amazing added bonus! This was the perfect location!

We stayed in Carmel close to 4 weeks with a family of 5.
the Appartement is absolutely perfect (2 beds and a sleeping sofa)
Super well equipped.
Hot tub was a big win since Carmel does get foggy / cold some days.
The Appartement is well connected to the highway, so you are quickly everywhere. Bewch, Monterey and Carmel valley.
Pls note, there are two units and there is another Appartement on top so you share the house.
Which was no problem since there are enough parking spaces, huge property with different a tries etc.
Callie and Susan ar(and Dori) are simply awesome. Everything was provided and got stocked up again and again.
5-5 easy

Overall the place is great. Lots of room, well stocked kitchen, nice decorations and outdoor space was very good and private for a tri-plex. The only two downsides was the 5PM check-in which is late in the day for a typical arrival and there is no access from the neighborhood into Carmel without driving on HWY 1. This makes walking or biking into town very difficult.

This property is all you want in a VRBO. Pristine, equipped with all the comforts of your own home, elegantly decorated, in a private cup-de-sac, in an upscale neighborhood, with incredible beach views, a responsive owner and did I mention you own hot tub? We are looking forward to coming back and visiting Carmel and Monterey while staying here.

Perfect place to stay to see our daughter at DLI. She was able to stay with us for the weekend and found the Murphy bed comfortable. The kitchen & living room tables were perfect for playing family games that we brought with us and the grill and hot tub were awesome. Location worked well to explore Big Sur & Monterey. We enjoyed our time here and would stay again if we came back.

The property was very clean, nicely decorated and an incredible view. The owners Susan and Callie were very conscientious and responsive to our needs.
There are 22 steps down to the property from the street which we did not realize which made carrying luggage a little difficult, especially in the pouring rain. I recommend this property.

We had a great stay at Callie's place! Callie was very accommodating. The location was a very short drive to downtown Carmel and also Monterey. We explored nearby Point Lobos, which Callie gave us some info on. Her place had everything we could need. We stayed there with our 10 year old son and it was a perfect space for all of us. We would definitely come again!

Callie and Susan’s downstairs apartment was perfection for our party of 5. Views are unparalleled, beds all super comfortable. Hot tub and outdoor firepit made for magical evenings. Kitchen very well equipped- every detail is considered by these extra special hosts!

Second week at this property. We enjoyed it so much in September we wanted to re-book as soon as we could. Very convenient to all of the sights and in a quiet neighborhood. We love the comfy bed and lots of doors and windows to enjoy the view and fresh air. Callie is a great communicator and we appreciated the snacks and coffee ready for us after a long day of traveling. We’ll definitely be back!

Amazing view, updated property, so convenient, short drive to shops & beach. We will be back!

Where to begin??? I can honestly say that this property has every single thing you can possibly need for a stellar stay. Location✔️less than 10-minute drive to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea. View✔️you can see Carmel Bay from the deck and it’s quite private. Amenities✔️✔️Callie thought of everything, literally. And great linens, towels, shampoo/conditioner, the works! But the best part of all, a five-star owner who provided loads of recommendations in advance and she truly cares about her guests and their comfort. Can’t possibly recommend this place enough. The upstairs is a separate rental so there can be a bit of noise but we never saw the other guests. Wish we had the time to really use the deck, equipped with a hot tub and fire pit. Next time. This place is A-MA-ZING!!!!!

This lower level feels and performs like a condo. Adorable, and updated and the hot tub is fabulous. The host is always available and the size is perfect. Laundry is wonderful and w/newer machines, plenty of fluffy towels, and quiet...plus they offer many TV options - Thank you. My husband was able to watch the Badger Game.
Fabulous stay!

Loved everything about this home only minutes away from downtown Carmel. It was so well appointed with a gorgeous peek a boo view of the ocean and secluded backyard with fire pit and hot tub. We felt so at home here and would come back in a heartbeat! Thanks Callie for being so communicative!

Our stay was great! The communication from the property owner/manager was amazing! They were very helpful and responsive to any questions before and during our stay. The space was very nice and comfortable. The only negative was that for the few days that there were other guest in the upstairs unit, the noise flowed down to the lower unit a lot. Just people walking around echoed through the unit.

Our family of 5 plus a dog loved our stay in Carmel by the Sea. We were welcomed by a bottle of wine and a great view of the bay. The pull-out couch and Murphy bed were perfect for the kids. The location was convenient for access to the beach and bay as well as driving over to Monterrey. We really enjoy the stay!

A beautiful property. The outdoor space is beautiful and peaceful. We enjoyed sitting on the deck enjoying our coffee. It offered everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
The cleanliness, linens were nice. The toiletries were really appreciated, good quality!
Kitchen was so nice and updated.
Location is great, near everything!
The owner Callie was a pleasure, we will remember her thoughtfulness and kindness.

Beautiful property. Very clean considering it is dog friendly. Our dog had a safe fenced in yard to explore. We had everything we needed at the house, along with some thoughtful snacks and cider. Callie was a wonderful host. She was responsive and quick to attend to our needs. Would love to return again and stay in the larger house above. It’s the prefect spot between Carmel and Monterey exploring. Thank you!

What a great stay! Callie was the best host - and the property had everything we needed! (and didn't know we needed...when my son bumped his head, we even found ice packs in the freezer!). We traveled with our two large dogs who LOVED the patio, garden. Callie managed to make traveling with two dogs and a toddler stress-free. Amazing!

Great location for exploring both Monterey and Carmel. Quiet neighborhood, distant road noise but only audible when outside. Great outdoor seating with firepit and a hot tub to enjoy. Unit is small, but our family of 4 were never uncomfortable. Doors open wide to deck, extending living area to outdoors. Teenage kids were comfortable on murphy bed and sofa sleeper. Great bedding, fresh and soft. Thoughtful touches throughout. Unexpected extras like bathrobes and beach chairs and umbrella. Well stocked kitchen with all necessay dishware and cookware, plus extra supplies like spices and ziplock bags. Upstairs unit did create minimal noise of footsteps. It was not bothersome for us as the renters were otherwise quiet, but could be nuisance if renters were loud or running around late. Host and property manager were very responsive and helpful. We had issue an with the tub not draining well and a repair was made. We felt very comfortable, safe, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I would definitely recommend this home.

We volunteered at the Women's US Open at Pebble Beach and this was the perfect place to stay! We arrived the weekend before the tournament and had an amazing time relaxing here. Thank you so much for everything, it was the perfect stay!!

I’m going to keep it simple: Staying 7 nights at your Guest House property was perfect, again. Gave each category, again, 5 stars. Have visited Carmel-Big Sur 1-3x each year for 10 years and the Guest House is a comfortable premier property from which to access all the Carmel/Big Sur venues. Thank you!

This house is absolutely wonderful, and in the most gorgeous location. The host was extremely courteous, and we could not have asked for a more perfect weekend. They had flowers and a card and champagne waiting for us due to it being our wedding weekend. They were extra accommodating and the house is extremely well-kept and modern and has every essential item you may need. This is a must day for anyone wanting to stay local in Carmel. Thank you for an amazing memorable wedding weekend!

Thank you for a great stay! Everything was as advertised and Callie was personable and readily available if we needed anything. She provided great local tips and tricks that really made this weekend shine! Super dog friendly with a fenced in back yard (just be wary of ticks! We found between 10-15 (dead + live ones) over the 4 days we were there but nothing out of the ordinary given we let our dog off to wander through the yard. Just make sure your pup is up to date on their flea/tick meds). Bed was super comfy, couch + chair were great, kitchen was fully stocked. We loved our time in the lower level and even talked about wanting to rent both units at the same time with friends and family! We'll be back, of that I'm sure. Thanks!

We had a fantastic stay at this home! I felt like I was staying at a friend’s place rather than at a rental property - it was so comfortable and cozy, and Callie was such a fantastic communicator. Every detail was perfect, and the home is well maintained and equipped. We were traveling with our 3 month old son and Callie made sure we had everything we needed! The outdoor space was beautiful and perfect for relaxing. It was also a super short drive into town. Can’t recommend this property enough!

I came to Carmel to run the Big Sur Marathon. We made a family vacation out of the experience and all loved our home base for the time we spent in Carmel. I would recommend this VRBO without hesitation. I'm glad I found this gem!
