This was a beautiful and spacious VRBO. Everything you could possibly need for a lovely stay . When we weren’t out exploring the quaint surroundings we enjoyed wine and cheese in the backyard taking in all the lovely and eclectic decorations.

We loved it! Sunny thought of everything, attention to detail is on point. The house has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Enjoyed the fire pit in the back yard the first night with our wine! We would definitely stay here again. You can walk to town, it’s bit of hike going up the hill but gave us some cardio. So many shops and restaurants to enjoy. Carmel we will be back! Thank you again Sunny!

We loved staying at this well appointed house! The beds were super comfy with nice blankets. The deck was a lovely place to have a conversation, and the walk to town was about 7 minutes. We hope to come again.

Perfect - not an overstatement

Brought my elderly mother and sibling - we love Carmel but have never stayed this close to town. Listing does not do it justice. Not only the location (both beach and town are very walkable for those that are not elderly). But the house and property are thoughtfully decorated and has every accessory needed. Plenty of private outdoor space. Felt lucky to have found it.

Magical Place

The house was very well appointed. Kitchen served us well for a Christmas turkey dinner. Privacy for adult children downstairs. Close enough to town for easy walk after wine tasting. Loved the Christmas tree. We will certainly be back.

Bay Area Visitors

The house is beautiful and well appointed. My husband and I were there with our adult daughter and her boyfriend. The house has a wonderful layout with a bedroom/bathroom downstairs and two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs. This provides a wonderful separation and privacy. The bedrooms are large, luxurious, and private. At the same time the common space is comfortable, open, and light. A great space to hang out as a family and enjoy. We loved every minute of our stay. Thank you Sunny!
