Hannah, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our room was super clean with quality updates that seemed new. Decor was well-appointed and the bed was very comfortable. We had a wrap around balcony with ocean and town views. The ocean breeze kept the room cool in the daytime and the fireplace kept us warm while enjoying the stars at night. Staff was hospitable and breakfast was excellent. It was a perfect stay!

Best Little Inn

Carmel Bay View Inn was the highlight of our road trip! Quaint, extremely clean, close to Ocean Street, the main street in Carmel. We worked our car and never drove again. We definitely will come back.

Wonderful view from the room of the bay and ocean. Wish the weather was just a little warmer. However, we thoroughly enjoyed the stay and the service that was provided by the staff.

The view from room 502 looking south to the ocean was nice. The heater was very noisy and kept waking us up when it kicked on in the night.

great location and value

cute hotel with flower boxes everywhere, wonderful front desk, clean and nice room, comfortable bed, clean bathroom, great location, quiet area, parking can be difficult on a busy weekend and room can get hot during the day (no a/c). This is our second time staying and we will definitely stay again. Recommend!
