Top McWay Cove Hotel Reviews

Carmel Valley Lodge and Resort

Carmel Valley Lodge and Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Great stay, friendly staff and a fantastic complimentary breakfast! The place was old school and quaint, nothing modernized. We stayed for a few days during a family wedding weekend. The staff is everything. Very accommodating and friendly. The chef making the complimentary breakfast was fantastic - best avocado toast I've had! Hot eggs/quiche/frittatas on the weekends. The accommodations were rustic with some rooms being more updated than others. Regardless, the room was extremely clean along with the rest of the property. The pool was wonderful. It gets much hotter in the valley than in the town of Carmel, 17 mile drive, Monterrey so layer up."
