Carmel Valley Ranch, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt

This is the perfect stay whether you’re with family or a couple. CVR offers so many activities on-campus beyond the golf-course itself; my husband and I loved the corral and all the animal experiences (as did my nephew). Spa Aiyana was also wonderfully relaxing. I also really appreciated that it’s so dog-friendly, so that our pup wouldn’t have to be boarded while we were away. Overall, we loved spending our winter holiday here and plan to be back soon so we can pack in more of the excursions!

The remodel River Ranch is nice. Also they have now more EV charging stations (non Tesla charging stations) which is more convenient. Oh, the duck in Valley Kitchen is really good.

The resort has a large campus about 500 acres, The beautiful hill, golf course, vineyard, animal farm. We would be back again in the summer when vineyard and lavender field are blooming.

What a pleasant surprise! We had no idea there was so much being offered at the Hyatt - exploring adventures, golf, lunch with donkeys/goats, off road tour of the ranch, homemade goat cheese, smores in the evenings, a welcome wine and freshly baked cookies, the list goes on and on. The facility is stunning, on top of the hill. The service is 5 stars! They go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need.

This needs to be a go to destination! The property and staff are professional, courteous and friendly. Their willingness to go above and beyond is unmatched. The rooms are beautiful, the service is amazing and the food top notch! I applaud their commitment to sustainability! The entire staff was knowledgeable and passionate about their work.

Good experience, friendly staff, wonderful setting. Carmel Valley Ranch Golf Course was in excellent shape, beautiful hilly layout.

We had a wonderful stay on our recent family trip with our baby and our golden retriever. The resort was extremely welcoming and truly family- and pet-friendly. The environment was beautiful, peaceful, and well-maintained, and the amenities made our stay very comfortable. The food options were great as well, with plenty of variety to choose from each day. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would happily return. Highly recommended for families and pet owners!

Loved the service and overall stay here. Best way to celebrate any special occasion. Thanks to the hotel for making our first wedding anniversary a memorable moment.

We’re still in the middle of our stay at Carmel Valley Ranch, but it has already been so wonderful that I wanted to write this review before I even get home; just so I don’t forget all the special details. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel truly cared for. Edward was so sweet at check-in and helped secure lovely rooms for our group. He continues to greet us kindly each time we see him in the lodge. Saša remembered us from previous visits and made my son’s birthday extra special by bringing out French fries (his absolute favorite)! We also had a service issue within our group, and Jeff handled it with such genuine passion and professionalism. He went above and beyond to make things right, and then surprised my kids with their own little Stanley cups engraved with their initials. Truly above and beyond. The food and beverage team has been just as amazing. Molly’s new dessert menu is fantastic—don’t miss the goat cheesecake! Carly is always a gem; her warmth and kindness brighten our days, and my kids absolutely adore her. Mia is so welcoming at the host stand at Valley Kitchen, always greeting us with such friendliness. At dinner, Ismael was a wonderful server. I forgot to mention needing separate checks at the start of the meal, but he was so gracious and kind about handling it at the end. A highlight of the trip was meeting Fernanda at the Market this morning. We had a fun conversation early in the morning about whether eggnog and matcha might go together. Hours later, she tracked me down to tell me she had experimented, tried it, and that it was delicious. Then, she proceeded to make me a matcha eggnog latte. And she was right. It was amazing! Her thoughtfulness absolutely made my day. We also had the pleasure of meeting Urich, the GM—including a personal hello from him, which says a lot about the hospitality here. He was warm, approachable, and clearly cares deeply about the guest experience. I feel awful for not catching his name, not the gentleman who let us through the gate is always simply hospitable. He always showers my kids with lifesaver candies and fist bumps. I wish I caught his name. He’s the perfect first impression of the property. The property itself is gorgeous with so much to enjoy, but what keeps us coming back again and again is the incredible people who make every stay feel special. Their kindness, sincerity, and attention to detail turn a beautiful resort into a place that feels like home. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

This beautiful property is located in Carmel Valley with beautiful views and a very large property. Rooms are unique. Excellent service at the hotel.
