We spent Valentine’s weekend at Carmel Beach Hotel and it was exactly what we were hoping for. Check-in was incredibly welcoming—they greeted us with drinks, and the fire pit in front of the reception area kept us warm while we arrived a little early. It immediately set the tone for a relaxing weekend. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and we stayed in Room 12 with an ocean view that my wife absolutely loved. The room felt modern and thoughtfully designed, featuring a beautiful bathtub and shower that made it easy to unwind. Breakfast was served right to our room and was both convenient and tasty. The staff was wonderful and helpful throughout our stay, and it’s just a short walk to the lovely beach. We would definitely stay here again for a romantic weekend escape.

Location!! One block from the beach and stair access right there, this is a great place to stay. The grounds and building are well maintained. We were lucky to have stayed in an ocean view room with balcony. The bed was really comfortable, the bathroom was spotless and incredible spacious, with a separate tub (we didn't take advantage of it) and wonderful bath toiletries. Bathrobes and slippers are always a nice touch; Nespresso in the room and bottled water available. We ordered their breakfast and it was delicious, definitely recommend. You can choose to eat in your room (we did) or in the patio, which is equally delightful. One thing to note, not the first one looking at other reviews, walls are a bit thin. It was not an issue for us since our neighbors were respectful and turned off the TV at a reasonable hour and the evening was quiet, no car noise and you can listen to the waves crushing if you leave the window open. A comment about the distance to downtown: it is about a 15 minute walk, totally doable especially if you choose to walk along the beach, coming back from dinner is perfectly safe. And the property offers car service. so it was definitely not an issue, but something to consider if you are looking to stay in the middle of the action (I much prefer the retreat and proximity to the beach with easy access still to shops and restaurants). Parking is also not an issue, with reserved spots for guests. Highly highly recommend.

We come to Carmel every new year to celebrate my birthday. We stayed at Carmel Beach Hotel in 2024 and had a good experience. The rooms, breakfast, service, transportation, & other basic amenities were nice. The cost of the rooms at that time were twice as expensive as the average hotel in Carmel. But we thought it was worth it and enjoyed being away from town. This past New Years was a bad experience. First, the room charge was 3 times the average rate. We were expecting to receive top notch service, but got nearly the opposite. Our room wasn’t ready on time. No complimentary breakfast and the food was just ok (cooked offsite). The service for coffee and transportation was frustrating. And frankly the hospitality of those that work there needs some improvement to say the least. With the exception of Raffy the bartender. He was delightful and very enjoyable to speak with. A lot of money for basic service. Not worth the price.

Close to the beach

Expensive for a small room. Not much of a view.

Location

No hot water (got fixed)

The new corner room.

The two asian staff members at the front desk were horrible. No friendliness. No EQ. Super impersonable. No personality. We paid way too much to be treated like that.

Close to beach

20+ minutes walk to restaurants

Incredible location and staff
