About this property
Charming Carmel Cottage | Ocean & Mountain Views | Walkable to DT Carmel
This stylish and spacious retreat features a comfy queen bed, a queen-size sectional sleeper sofa, cozy fireplace, and a fully equipped kitchen (minus a dishwasher). Unwind in the bath with a tub/shower combo, or step out onto the private deck for breathtaking sea and starlit views. The perfect mix of comfort and convenience with a relaxed coastal vibe, it’s ideal for couples, solo travelers, or small groups looking for a peaceful escape. You're just minutes - 7 minute walk - from Carmel’s world-famous beaches, galleries, shops, and restaurants—though do note, the area’s signature hills add a little workout to any walk! Extras include driveway parking, a Tesla charger, and serene surroundings.

About the host
Your host
Welcome—we’re so glad you’re here! Wright Lux Stays and our Sonoma-based management company, Legendary Stays, were founded from a deep love of Wine Country and a shared dream: to create unforgettable stays in the places that mean the most to us.
Our journey into vacation rentals began in Sonoma, California, where we were married at the breathtaking Cornerstone Gardens—a must-see if you're visiting! From the moment we stepped foot onto what is now The Acacia Farmhouse, we knew we had discovered something truly special. We not only fell in love with the property but also formed lasting friendships within the local community. That connection inspired us to begin hosting and soon led to the expansion of our portfolio throughout Sonoma Valley.
We’ve also extended our reach to Kansas City, where Amber was raised and where family ties remain strong. It felt only natural to create a home base there for gathering with loved ones—and now, to share with our guests. The sunflower in our logo is a nod to Amber’s lifelong love for sunflowers (a passion now shared by our daughter, Hunter), the Kansas State Flower, and the golden blooms that dot the landscape of both Kansas and Wine Country.
Whether you're sipping wine under the Sonoma sun, discovering hidden gems in Kansas City, Carmel or our Austin property, our goal is to make every stay memorable. From curated local recommendations to personalized planning—like private wine tours or game-day transportation—we're here to help you experience the very best each destination has to offer.
Welcome to the Wright Lux Stays family. We can't wait to host you.
