Reviewer Comments:
This was our second time at Carmel Nest and we enjoyed staying there again. It is a large house that suited my extended family's needs well with ground floor master bedroom and a large dining table. The location is quite convenient and just a few minutes drive from everything!The property is up for sale and we think the owner may stopped by early in the morning to retrieve something from the garage and left the door open, but that was the only oddity in our experience. The 2 people that I spoke with at Sanctuary vacation rentals were delightful, which is consistent with our experience last summer.I'd highly recommend the company and stay in another one of the properties in their portfolio.

The house had a lot of nice areas for gathering - the dining room, kitchen eating area, two sitting rooms, patio. Our family members really liked the en-suite aspect of each bedroom. It was so nice to have our own bathrooms. The decor was lovely. Furnishings were comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed, and appliances were user friendly and in good condition. Location was very pleasant and quiet.

The house exceeded our expectations. We would stay there again. The only improvement would be to move it to an ocean view lot.

We enjoyed our visit - it is a peaceful spot on the hill near Carmel, and is a great base for doing things in the area.The kitchen initially was short of basic things, such as enough pans and wine glasses, but staff was very quick to address those concerns.

We loved the location. Overall the house was well appointed and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we liked the dining areas. The house layout was unconventional, although we got used to it and came to appreciate it. For a family, I would have preferred the bedrooms closer to each other. The downstairs king bed was too soft for my comfort and the downstairs queen was squeaky. The rec room seemed a little musty, and so we didn't use it much. Otherwise, the house was clean and I really appreciated that there weren't any fake fragrance smells/overwhelming laundry detergent vibes that rentals often have. Overall I'd recommend.

We had three couples stay for three nights. It was a great house as there were three bedrooms with three baths; so we all got privacy but also a way to have communal meals and time together. The area is quiet and within easy driving to 17 mile drive and the aquarium.

Fantastic property with room to hang out with the group but also plenty of areas to read and relax. Just a few minutes to drive to restaurants. I will use this property again.
