Hyatt Carmel Highlands

4.0 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very good, (754)
"Here is the thing to know about this property. It is really two hotels on one location. Higher up the hill you have very nice cabin like rooms that more or less are worth the exorbitant per night rates. But closer to the main building, you have rooms that are the quality of a Motel 6, but are charged out at over $500 per night.

"The location up on the hill is awesome. You get a great view of the bay and can see Pebble
Beach
off in the distance. There's nothing better then waking up in the morning and seeing the beautiful hills and the ocean as you look out your bedroom balcony sipping your morning coffee. The only issue with this location is the ride up and down the narrow hill. At night could be a little dangerous. A huge plus is that each room has its own bathroom so no worries when everyone is getting ready to leave...

"The home is like a designer showcase! Beautiful art, lovely plants and nice comfortable furnishings, both inside and out. The deck is wonderful with the view of the ocean. The kitchen has state of the art appliances and filled with everything you need. We also loved the location of being close to Carmel, Monterrey and a nice drive to Big Sur!"

Hirsch was an exceptional host and truly looked out for what we needed to make this a great stay for everyone, and communicated very well and quickly. The home is in the perfect location -...

"House and neighborhood were very nice, with some water view from front main living area and master bedroom, as well as from front patio/deck with fireplace. Met owner/host whom was very friendly. Enjoyed the neighborhood walk to the opening between 2 houses to the bluff and
