Top Monastery Beach Hotel Reviews

Carmel Bay View Inn

8/10 Good

"The Inn is charming, however it is "worn.""

Hyatt Carmel Highlands

8/10 Good

"So this is a beautiful spot BUT!! The hotel is literally on the edge of a steep hill. “A disclaimer should go along with the booking. Must be physically fit to enjoy our property!!” Our room, while not far from the lobby, was probably 75 stair steps below the lobby. I’m sure they have some handicapped rooms available but the area we stayed in (about 24 rooms) is a hike. Don’t know about the restaurant as it was closed the night we stayed. The fitness center is okay but not much equipment other than cardio machines. Our room had a beautiful, unobstructed view of the ocean but the entrance to the property and the Highway 1 were so close that we couldn’t keep our windows open because of the noise. There are plenty of rooms that aren’t as close so be advised. Seemed like they were short of bell staff so we carried our bags ourselves which accentuated the elevation issues."

Hyatt Vacation Club at Highlands Inn

8/10 Good

"Beautiful property in the most gorgeous location. The view from the Pacific's Edge lunch can't be beat. Food in both the restaurant and lounge is outstanding. The unit we stayed in was a bit dated but overall very nice. I was excited to have a balcony to relax on with a view of the coast and waves crashing over the rocks. Unfortunately the unit was close to the main building where the huge fan on the roof was very loud and drowned out the sound of the ocean. Inside our unit or on the balcony it was all we could hear the whole time. I can only imagine that from most other units it wouldn't have been a problem and that we just happened to be in a badly affected spot. I would stay here again for the location but would make sure to get a different building."

Pine Inn

8/10 Good

"Original hotel was built in 1890’s and was really well maintained as a historic landmark. Room was quite small for larger historic-style furniture. Staff was attentive, helpful and friendly. Italian restaurant in the hotel was very accessible for guests and food and service was very good!"

Carmel Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed with my spouse and our 11 month old baby. The staff was incredibly accommodating. We asked if there was a larger room (for our baby's pack n play) and were offered an upgrade free of charge. We actually decided we could make the space we had work bc the bathroom was so large but appreciated the generosity. This place has gorgeous grounds and updated living/ bath space. Nice touches are a welcoming drink (non alcoholic) and turn down treats; meaning they bring you a small dessert in the evening- incredible! The fire pit is awesome and on our departure day we opted for the breakfast to be brought to us. At first I thought the food prices were a little high but not when I realized it comes with a coffee. The portions and food were great. We had the breakfast sandwich, oatmeal (huge and delicious) and eggs/bacon. The hotel had refillable waters and nespresso in room. They do offer some alcohol at the little bar in the lobby. You are only one block from the beautiful beach with incredible sunset views. I think the hotel may even have e-bikes you can rent which we would've 100% done if we didn't have a baby. We will absolutely stay here again!"

La Playa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great room and location , lovely breakfast"

Carmel River Inn & Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place, highly recommended"

Le Petit Pali at 8th Ave

8/10 Good

"The property is very cute. Great location to walk to shops and restaurants. Clean and quiet. Constructive feedback; the towels are thin and cheap. For a high end property the towels should be thick and high quality. And why just two ? I have long hair, I use two towels a day and my husband needs one towel. There is no iron only a steamer. That’s not the same and when you are traveling and want to go out to dinner you need an iron. The closet is only a cupboard so dresses and pants cannot fully hang. There is no air conditioning. The room was stuffy. The champagne breakfast is false advertising. No one was drinking champagne at breakfast and it wasn’t offered. You have to ask for coffee and wait for them to bring it in little cups. Why not have an urn? The evening reception was nice but service was slow and nothing is complimentary. They didn’t refill the Nespresso coffee pods in the room daily so we had to ask for them. The tissues and toilet paper were also poor quality. Franco the morning sever was great!"
