External looks nice but inside the room is old and needs to have more cosmetic fix to make it looks nicer. Foods is ok, not great (breakfast). The view from the restaurant is beautiful.

Great stay. Spectacular view of Highlands from our balcony. Dining options reduced during stay (restaurant closed certain days…). Quiet and away from Carmel town centre amenities (shopping,dining). Point Lobos hiking nearby was incredible with some beautiful vistas.

Still a nice place but it’s getting old and out dated. Construction around the pool which was closed was on going noise, not really loud but was noticeable. Overall still a nice place to stay. Restaurant was also nice with a great view, food was delicious but limited selections.
