“The inn's intimate scale cultivates a serene escape in a quiet residential corner of Carmel, yet remains a stroll away from Ocean Avenue. Details like fireplaces, gourmet breakfasts, and luxury bath amenities contribute to a pampered atmosphere, enhanced by personalized touches such as wine upon arrival and dog-friendly resources. I noted the distinct room decor, which gives each accommodation a unique ambiance.”
