“This boutique hotel distinguishes itself with a vintage-meets-coastal aesthetic and a dedication to intimate social spaces. Gourmet breakfasts featuring champagne and homemade pastries are a notable highlight, as is the pet-friendly atmosphere near Carmel Beach. I appreciate the on-site Brophy's Tavern that adds a local flavor with its sports-themed bar.”
