Carmel-by-the-Sea is like walking into a fairytale…only with incredible ocean views and plenty of great wine.
It’s a quaint California coastal town, famous for its sweet storybook cottages, stunning beaches and cool art galleries. Carmel Beach has to be seen to be believed. The powdery-soft sand is pristine and white, and the sunsets are out of this world. Stroll down Ocean Avenue and pop into boutique shops and cozy cafes, or head to the historic Carmel Mission and take in the peaceful vibes of these beautiful gardens.
If you’re a wine lover, you’ll be in heaven. Carmel Valley is just a short drive away, where you can explore vineyards and enjoy a few tasting sessions. Or if you’re more of an outdoorsy type, head to Point Lobos State Natural Reserve for a hike, which you can combine with wildlife watching and gazing at the iconic rocky cliffs.
Where to stay in Carmel
If you’re dreaming of a Californian beachside oasis, look at our last-minute hotels in Carmel. We have hotels in Carmel dotted all over this stunning slice of Cali, and here are just a few of our favorite areas.
If you want easy access throughout the city, then book Carmel accommodation in Central Carmel. The city center has all the best restaurants in town like Dametra Cafe and Bicylette as well as fantastic nightlife. Plus, Carmel Beach is less than a mile away.
The Golden Rectangle is like a dream. The Village of Fae is adorably small and filled with cute stores and plenty of photo ops.
Northeast Carmel is great for Carmel hotel deals and is the gateway between Carmel and Monterey. It’s also close to Jack’s Peak Park if you fancy going on a hike. For a more lively stay, base yourself in Northwest Carmel and enjoy the breathtaking views and fun bar scene.
Top things to do in Carmel
- Spend the day on the beach. Carmel Beach with its soft white sand and rugged coastline is the ultimate spot for a lazy beach day, but if you want something a little different, go to Monastery Beach and go hunting in the tide pools.
- Visit the Carmel Mission Basilica. Discover the history of this stunning 18th-century mission and explore the tranquil gardens and intriguing artifacts.
- Say “cheers” in Carmel Valley. Jump in the car and drive the short distance to Carmel Valley. Join wine-tasting sessions and wander around the vineyards. Make sure you have a glass (or two) of local Pinot Noir while taking in the amazing mountain views.
Insider tips for visiting Carmel
- Make reservations before you go. Carmel is home to some amazing and very popular restaurants, but they tend to get booked up in advance. Plan ahead and make your reservations early, especially at hotspots like Casanova and La Bicyclette.
- Bring your furry pal. Carmel is super dog-friendly and most restaurants and shops welcome pooch pals with open paws…sorry, arms.
- Feel peaceful on Scenic Road. Scenic by name and scenic by nature, this quiet coastal road offers some of the best views around - perfect for a romantic drive or stroll.
