Arcadia - Carmel House - Classic Carmel

This comfortable, single-story home on a corner lot in Carmel is the perfect spot from which to explore the many splendors of the Monterey Peninsula. Between the living room (with a fireplace for chilly nights) and the cozy den—with a leather sofa and a large TV—you’ll have plenty of room to spread out here. There are two dining areas, one off the living room and a breakfast table beside the large kitchen, which features fresh white cabinetry, a stainless side-by-side refrigerator, a five-burner gas range, and built-in oven/microwave. There’s a twin bedroom (with bunk beds), a powder room, and a laundry room off the kitchen. On the opposite side of the home, you’ll find a Queen bedroom facing a hallway bath with a tub/shower. Further down the hall is the master suite: Queen-sized poster bed, fireplace, and a large TV in an antique armoire. The en suite bath has an oval soaking tub, a walk-in shower and dual sinks. Outdoors, you can while away the hours in the porch swing or dine al fresco in the large backyard under the oaks. And when you're ready to explore, Carmel's storybook downtown is just a short walk away. Two-car garage with driveway and street parking.

Clean and great location

Wonderful location, very clean and we had a nice time!We enjoyed the cut glass wine glasses, little soaps and toiletries! We contacted them for a few little maintenance items like a TV remote not working..and a few others at checkout, and imagine they will be fixed before other guests arrive! Thanks!

Walk to town

The property was about a mile from town and a bit further to the beach. Since parking downtown is a big problem, it was good we could walk to town. The house is located in a very quiet neighborhood.

Arcadia House Carmel CA

I love visiting Carmel because of its timeless charm, elegance and coastal vibes. When planning a trip to Carmel that would include 3 generations of my family, I wanted to find a house that embodied those Carmel vibes and would be a great family hub location to hang out, cook, and relax for people ages 8 to 70. This house exceeded my expectations. It was both beautiful and cozy, very well maintained inside and out. We loved the beautifully landscaped yard featuring mature oak trees and a private patio perfect for bbqing and relaxing. Also, it was in a quiet neighborhood filled with "locals" but only a 5 minute drive to downtown and the beach - easy access but no tourist noise and traffic. The host was super helpful and responsive when we had questions about the property and activities in the surrounding area. All in all, we thought this house was a GREAT find, and would happily stay here again.

Beautiful house with all amenities and great location in Carmel -Monterey area

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful and comfortable home. It has all the amenities and we were able to enjoy a few relaxing nights in while on a long travel holiday. The house was well located and it made it easy for us to visit Carmel, Monterey and Big Sur.

Things around the house could be better

The outside patio was really dirty hard to use. We had to clean it before we could use it. Inside was lacking a lot of things that you would need when you go into a vacation home it was just a little disappointing.

Perfect location to explore Carmel and Monterey

Quaint cottage whose exterior does not give away the spacious interiors. While the furniture and bathrooms have a lovely old world charm, all the appliances are updated and like new. We did not lack anything. Quiet neighborhood, short drive to the Carmel downtown, the 17 mile drive, Lobos Park. Just loved the laid back feel of Carmel and Cannery Row. Would come back if we can!
