Guest House in Sunny Carmel Valley.

In Carmel Valley, just east of the famous Bernardus Spa and vineyard, this luxurious, fully equipped guest house is an ideal choice for a romantic getaway or a longer stay for one of the of the Monterey Peninsula's great events. Privacy, beautiful gardens and wine country atmosphere all conspire to make this getaway a place to recharge and relax.


Property Characteristics
The guest house is located about three minutes from Carmel Valley Village, 10 minutes from Laguna Seca Race Track and 15 minutes from Carmel-by-the-Sea. It is a separate structure with bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen/dining area. Fully equipped, the apartment features a heated floor in the marble-tiled bathroom and walk-in shower, king size bed, robes and slippers, dimmable lights throughout and an entertainment center and Wi-Fi connection via cable. Both Netflix and Amazon channels are included. A private stone deck is right outside your door and a sun deck. A swimming pool (Not heated) is also on the property. Climbing roses, lavender field, wisteria and many other flowers adorn the property. A Bocce court with balls for both bocce and pentaquin (boules) completes the property’s amenities.

Wine tasting and Restaurants
The Monterey Peninsula is known for a very wide selection of good to very good restaurants and dozens of tasting rooms featuring wines and olive oils made locally and in nearby wine growing regions of California. There are about 20 tasting rooms just up the road in Carmel Valley Village and more in downtown Carmel. There are also several notable restaurants nearby.

Sport Activities
The signature sport of the Monterey Peninsula is golf. Some 16 golf courses await, among them the famous courses of Pebble Beach including Pebble Beach, Spyglass Hill, Poppy Hills and Spanish Bay, all accessible to the public. Many other challenging and scenic courses are also available – Black Horse and Bayonet, Quail Lodge, Del Monte, Laguna Seca, Carmel Valley Ranch, Pasadera and Corral De Tierra are all within about a 20 minute drive from the guest house.
Other sport activities are available throughout the peninsula. There are several scenic hiking trails within a short distance. The entrance to Garland Ranch, with miles of scenic trails, is just one mile from the guest house. Bicycling is everywhere on all the local roads. Whale watching, scuba diving and kayaking on Monterey Bay are popular aquatic activities and the Monterey Bay Aquarium is a must-see attraction.

Shopping
Carmel-by-the-Sea is shopping central, specializing in art from both local and international artists, with clothing stores, many specialty stores and dozens of restaurants. Del Monte Center in Monterey features a number of national brand stores as well as a multiplex theater and several restaurants. The Barnyard and Crossroads shopping areas, both at the mouth of the valley, are about 10-15 minutes from the guest house.

Special Events
As a vacation destination, Monterey is also host to a large number of special events every year. The annual AT&T golf tournament always attracts top players and the US Open is played periodically at the Pebble Beach venues. The Monterey Jazz Festival, the motorcycle Gathering at Quail Lodge and several other festivals take place throughout the year. The Big Sur Marathon attracts some of the best runners in the world. Possibly the best known event is the Pebble Beach Concourse D ’Elegance and auction. Through the years so many other car events have been added at venues around the Peninsula that locals now speak of “car week,” which features some six or seven important auctions, specialized single-make car shows and the Historic Races at Laguna Seca featuring the beautiful race cars of the post-war era.

Great location for Carmel Valley

The property is lovely. The apartment layout is a bit odd, though, as the bathroom is between the living room and the bedroom, so when someone is in the bathroom the second person is "trapped" in one of the other rooms.

Lovely cozy cottage with modern amenities

Clean and contemporary cottage with well-outfitted kitchen and spacious spa bathroom and large bedroom. Mid-valley location requires car to get anywhere (except adjacent Bernardus Lodge - but you knew that already 😉). Delightful hosts who respect privacy. A good value!

We loved this property. The inside is spacious for 2 people and well appointed, with very comfortable beds, nice linens, heated marble floors in the bathroom and a decently equipped kitchen. The outside area includes a huge deck, a lovely garden with roses and lavender, a clean modern hot tub and view of the Santa Lucia mountains. Jae and Bob were friendly and helpful (allowing us to recharge our PHEV) but not at all intrusive. We hope to return another time.

We had a wonderful stay and beautiful experience at this property. The guest house is very well appointed, spotlessly clean with a beautiful zen garden patio. Everything was top notch! Communication was excellent, proactive and responsive. We appreciated Jae and Bob allowing us to check in prior to standard check in time. They are the most friendly and gracious hosts. We truly hope to plan another stay in the future.

Great Communication and Helpful Host

great property, amenities listed just as they are. loved the heated floors in the bathroom. Water for the tub in restroom was too slow to fill, but the hot tub made up for it. Great shower that, as my partner puts it, felt like a nice warm hugging blanket. Host were extremely gracious and handled several special requests to make our weekend even more memorable. super appreciative of their communication and efforts.

Lovely well appointed guest house

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely well appointed and equipped guest house in Carmel Valley. It was peaceful and quiet with all of the comforts of home. It was nice being away from the tourist hordes of Carmel, but within convenient driving distance from Carmel and Big Sur. The bedroom, bathroom and kitchen were luxurious and the smart TV and WiFi worked perfectly (after we figured out how to use them). Thanks, Jae and Bob!

Lovely, well-maintained property with the bonus of hot tub close to the guest house, heated bathroom floor and multi-jet shower. Robes and towels provided for hot tub and pool. Immaculately clean. Well equipped kitchen with good sized refrigerator. Responsive host. Very friendly cats who will keep you company outside. Convenient location just a few minutes drive from village center. Considerations: guest house sits directly on main road; mattress is extra firm.

The Guest House is ideally located for a stay in the Carmel area. It is easy to find and near grocery stores for supplies. A must visit is the EarthBound Farm on the Carmel Valley Road. Excellent food and organic produce. The accommodation is comfortable and well equipped albeit alittle dark inside due to the high windows. This is something to bare in mind if you visit in the winter.The garden is stunning but is patrolled by several cats. While the house is pet free the garden is certainly not, and if like me you are allergic to cats the garden is out of bounds as the cats sit on the table and chairs in the sunshine. Jae and Bob are friendly hosts and made us very welcome.
