"Superior property - central to everything in Carmel & surroundings. High quality sheets, towels and Beautiful gardens & views out to the sea & beach. Wonderful property for us and our dogs. Great care & thought given to the property by the owner. We are in our 80s...and my balance isn't the best after foot surgery, so the entrance to the front door down a gradual slope with small steps and no hand rails was a little concerning for me. But, overall, the studio with fenced-in garden is...

"This house has everything possibly needed. Very thoughtfully stocked and supplied, and efficiently laid out with comfortable and tasteful furnishings. Very scenic location above the main part of town, and easy access. Particularly enjoyed the courtyard dining table. Unfortunately we were there during a heat wave, and hardly anything in Carmel has air conditioning, so it was hot in the house. Supplied fans helped.

Our 4th bedroom was downstairs with outside access only - you had to walk down an unlit dirt path to access (these details were never mentioned in the description). It was dangerous to be carrying luggage down and to get to in the dark. Also there was an issue with the heat in this downstairs unit. With phone call...
