Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a great house residing in a great location; our extended family has truly enjoyed our stay. The kids love the bunk beds; the compartment to store cold drinks is a nice amenity; our extended family loves the walking distance to Carmel River Beach. There is one item needing attention; the front gate latch is loose since the wood part holding it is rotten; perhaps the wooden block needs replacement & painting.

The property was perfect for our family. Because of the location we had lots of joy exploring the area. The children loved the bunk beds. Katherine was wonderful. We had a bit of a challenge with the lock box. The in-person tutorial was very nice.

Awesome Carmel Point Beach House
Our family came for an extended weekend getaway, and we had a most wonderful stay. The location is unbeatable - 6min walk to either Carmel or Carmel River beaches. The house has a ton of natural light, a great patio, and a good kitchen. Plenty of space to enjoy. We'll be back!

We Were Impressed As Soon As We Opened the Front Door
We were impressed as soon as we opened the front door. The house was beautifully decorated, and soft music was playing from both tvs upon our entry. This house is super clean, and updated throughout. It has eveything you could need, including dishes and cooking supplies. This house was very comfortable for our group of 6 people (4 adults 2 teens). The front room is very spacious and provided a great space to watch tv and play board games. And, with 3 full bathrooms, that space was always available when needed. The house is located within a short walking distance to two beautiful beaches. It's also a 25-minute walk into downtown Carmel. Each morning I walked to the Carmel bakery for delicious pastries and lattes.All communication with the property managers was excellent. I received prompt replies, and they were always very courteous.We plan to always stay at this house, whenever possible, when we return to Carmel.
