Top Carmel Mission Basilica Hotel Reviews

Carmel River Inn & Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic time st the Carmel Cottage. Super cute town close to Monterey and Big Sur for us to visit. The cottages were super cute and super clean. We also were able to roast some marshmallows for some s’mores with the kids. This place is also super pet friendly. I honestly would go back to this place again if we visit Monterey again!"

La Playa Hotel

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff was polite but nothing particularly memorable. We hadn’t had time to research or book dinner reservations before arriving, so I asked the concierge for recommendations. They handed me a restaurant booklet, which was helpful for options, but they didn’t offer any personal suggestions or go the extra mile to assist. The King room was extremely small—small doesn’t even begin to describe it. There was barely enough space to open one suitcase while still being able to move around the bed. It made getting ready in the morning or evening quite challenging for two people. On the positive side, the included breakfast was excellent. We didn’t use the pool because it was too windy during our stay, but the hotel’s location is fantastic—within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The complimentary car service was also a nice touch. Overall, the hotel is okay but nothing to write home about. If I return, I would request a larger room"

Carmel Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful, clean room! They left fresh cookies everyday on our nightstand after cleaning our room. Free bikes to ride around. It is a bit of a walk to town, but super close to the beach - only a 5 minute walk. However, our one complaint was not enough parking for guests at hotel and the water pressure out of shower and sink was terrible! The bathroom was gorgeous though."

Villa Mara Carmel

10/10 Excellent

"Villa Mara is just a delight to stay. Feels like a luxurious hospitality experience without the pretentious, over the top feel that’s too much. Villa Mara somehow balances top tier service with a personable and tasteful touch while still feeling spoiled. Everything is just perfectly placed and curated to create an ease of being and leisure. My wife and I came here to celebrate our honeymoon and we couldn't have picked a better place to do so. They made us feel special with champagne and flowers and it was perfect to unwind after the wedding. The breakfast in bed was stellar with the best almond croissant we’ve ever had. The slice of cake was just a lovely touch when hanging out by the fire with a glass of wine. The pleasant aroma of Sental 33 throughout the room and shower products made you feel engulfed in luxury. The beautiful landscaping of cacti and ivy made you feel transported to a different country. It was an intimate, private experience but also had a communal atmosphere at the same time. The attention to detail really does make the experience while maintaining a cool personality and style. Very special thing they got going on. Villa Mara helped us fully relax and just enjoy being newly married. Thank you for this and we will be back in the future! Drew and Julianna"

3892 Carmel Pearl - Remodeled, A Perfect Getaway

10/10 Excellent

"Three adults and three kids under 8 stayed here for several days. It was a great home base. We were close to all the adventures: Earthbound Farms, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Point Lobos, Ad Astra Bakery, Big Sur. The hosts well-communicated the expectations for using the space with thoughtful respect for the neighborhood. We cooked most meals in the kitchen and had lazy afternoons watching kid-movies on the large tv. There was enough space for all of us to be together and have time on our own. The freestanding porch swing was enjoyed by the kids!"
