Top Carmel Valley Hotel Reviews

Hidden Valley Inn

8/10 Good

"Easy parking, nice spacious rooms, really comfortable beds, quiet! The pool area is nice and would be truly amazing if there were a spa/hot tub. The hotel has tea, coffee, water available throughout the day, with doughnuts in the AM but not until 8:30, which may be a little late for some travelers. The property is well-maintained and nicely located, with beautiful views of the mountains."

Holman Ranch Estate Vineyard & Winery

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, secluded, well-kept property."

Gorgeous Secluded Treehouse with Spectacular Views

10/10 Excellent

"Tracy was quick to ensure we were taken care of and checked in. You can really tell this place is special and isn’t your average Vrbo. Highly recommend!"

New- Cabin by the River

10/10 Excellent

"As pictured. Very clean, private and quiet. We enjoyed ourselves!"

Serene Vineyard Chateau with Pool, Hot Tub, BBQ

10/10 Excellent

"This is a perfect getaway far, far from city lights. Bring lots of groceries and you never have to leave the property. Pool and hot tub were amazing, outdoor grill and bar were great and the indoor kitchen was a chef’s dream. WiFi was very good too. House was very clean and sheets and towels top of the line. Jet tub, walk in rain forest shower were greatly appreciated. Owners were very responsive to any request. Highly recommend this property"

Carmel Valley Village, close to Big Sur, Pebble, Carmel, & Monterey

10/10 Excellent

"Had a really fun time! The place was great and the owners were very communicative and very friendly. We had an issue with the power because the city shut it off and they were right on top of it with the generator and addressing anything we need. Thank you, Cindy and Mike for a great time!"

Guest House in Sunny Carmel Valley.

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean with a beautiful back yard. Bob, the owner was very kind and knowledgeable about the area. Would definitely stay again if we were in the area again."

Unique Off-Grid experience with Stunning Views Close to Wine Tasting

10/10 Excellent

"Traveled with my husband and pup and this was a really nice and unique place to check out on our road trip. We really enjoyed the quiet location, the super comfortable bed (!!!) and the amenities on site, which we enjoyed using (hot tub, fire pit, grill - all worked great)! Really fun to be next to a sheep/goat pen and to watch the goat climb the tree! The road driving up to this location was insane though; very steep, twisty an narrow, but after doing it a few times, we got more comfortable with it. My only issue was that we had a bit of an ant problem in/around the refrigerator, and the can of bug spray on site was empty. We contacted the owner about it, but unfortunately it was also a holiday weekend and we know people were not as available (not a big deal and we connected later), but we ended up just dealing with it on our own...not a perfect solution and was a constant problem during the majority of our stay. Other than that, this rental was wonderful! Great view across a valley, quiet location, and a beautiful starry sky at night! Worth checking out, just remember, you are in an RV and sometimes bugs happen."

Gated Carmel Valley Retreat with 20 Acres, Pool & Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property with tons of space for my friends and pups to hang out for the week! The rooms were spotless and there was more than enough space for 5 adults and two dogs. We spent most of our time at the pool or in the living room doing crafts. The kitchen had everything we needed for food preparation, so we could cook all of our meals. The only slight setback was the windy road on the drive in. We opted to stay on property the whole time to avoid motion sickness! "
