Vacation rentals with a patio in Carmel Valley

Clean place in a great area. Kitchen was definitely a nice feature that we very much enjoyed. There’s a beach in walking distance. The whole place is cozy and homey. Cons: coffee maker wasn’t clean, expired food was left behind, the beds were bunk beds, which wasn’t preferred. Overall, it was a positive experience and was very comfortable for 3 nights

My daughter and I loved staying here . The location is perfect for a true vacation. We barely needed to drive anywhere , as almost everything we needed was within walking distance . It is the perfect beach bungalow , and we can’t wait to go back !

What a cute homey space! It really did feel clean, and I think part of it is because shoes are not to be worn indoors. I really appreciated this. The size was perfect for just myself. The space was laid out to maximize its function and use, and I appreciated all the windows that could be opened for fresh air. Everything was very organized. Nikki was quick about answering my questions about the wifi (very fast!) and other amenities. I did not walk to the shops, as it seemed it would take too long to walk there with the limited window of time I had to do so. But driving there only took a few minutes. A lovely stay!

What an incredible place! Krista was very helpful and quick to respond. The place was so comfortable and restful! We will be back!

We loved our stay here in Carmel. For four people, it is spacious enough with very comfortable beds and a fantastic living space. The location is unbeatable with the beach a ten minute walk away, and so many restaurants nearby. We’d love to come again!

Such a lovely and peaceful retreat. Steps to the beach. Howard was excellent with communication. Highly recommended

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay. Well equipped kitchen and it was fun to spend some time enjoying the view.

Inc was a wonderful host. Everything went well and there was not a laundry list of post stay procedures. The home was cozy and a great place for a small family to stay on a vacation.

Beautiful home, well appointed, wonderful amenities, extremely comfortable. Comfy bed. Very clean. Bobby and Kristen were excellent hosts.

Pleasant stay, nicely decorated and slept my family of 5 adults in comfort. Dog friendly as advertised but you would not know it because there was no smell or hair on our clothes. Walking distance to restaurants grocery store and coffee shop. This was my first time to rent a home form airbnb and I'd do it again based on this stay.

Ellen’s place was amazing. Perfectly situated near amazing restaurants, steps from the beach, about a mile from the aquarium, next door to a library and museum, this was the perfect spring break for my family. Ellen was also super thoughtful in all her recommendations and even left out some coloring books for my six year old. I would stay here again when coming to Monterey.

We loved our stay and the beautiful views. The layout and housing was nice and the beds were very comfortable. The only issues we had was that it was close to the freeway so you could hear the cars sometimes. The place is very easy to find and to get to. The only thing that may have helped was having pot holders for using the oven. Definitely follow the instructions to turn on the fan and open the window when using the stove because the fire alarm is close to the kitchen. These are really minor things. I would recommend others stay here and would have loved to stay longer otherwise.

Marieke was a great host. Always responsive and understanding. Example: I was traveling in from Las Vegas, Nevada. I gave her a heads up I’ll be checking in late due to have car trouble. I also let her know I was checking out early due to me wanting to avoid multiple event traffic jams. And she understood where I was coming from The actually place was great and would stay there again if they would have me. I didn’t use the backyard much. But it’s fairly private. So if you want to lounge outside, and read a book you can. The coffee table doubles as a desk. You can lift the counter top to a higher level. She provided a wireless charging dock if you needed to use one. There were condiments, plates, bowls, and utensils to use. I chose this spot because I was a) relatively close to the event I was attending b) available. As far as I know she owns both abnbs. In the main foyer, there is the abnb you are assigned. And the other immediately across from you.

Lovely stay! Marleen was responsive and thoughtful. The home was clean, comfortable, and just as described. The backyard was an oasis for our toddler! Super cute and quiet neighborhood. Wish we could have stayed longer—would definitely come back!

3 of us stayed. The house is small but plenty of room for us. It was very clean. The beds were amazingly comfortable. Everything we needed was there. It’s also in a very convenient location.

Joanne and Nicole’s apartment was very spacious, and both David and I had more than enough room to relax and enjoy our time. The home theater was such a special treat, and we really appreciated the helpful information they provided about nearby restaurants. On top of that, they generously left snacks and even pasta sauce for us, which made us feel very welcomed. The outdoor hot tub was warm, clean, and incredibly cozy, making our stay even more relaxing. The instructions they gave were very clear and easy to follow, which helped everything go smoothly from the moment we arrived. They also placed a very easy-to-understand guidebook inside the apartment, so we could quickly find anything we needed without any confusion. Thanks to their thoughtful setup and care, we were able to fully relax and enjoy a slow and peaceful two-night, three-day stay.

We had a wonderful weekend at this lovely home! The house was very clean and well-maintained, and it’s located in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood that made for a relaxing stay. It’s just a short walk to the beach, which was super convenient. One of the highlights was the amazing view of the ocean right from the house absolutely stunning. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

The location of the apartment is awesome. We really enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and excellent view of the beach and ocean. Sleeping with the sound of the ocean waves was such a gift. Patti is lovely and kind with her communications. We did have some issues with the shower and bath sink in one of the bathrooms. We also wished we had paid attention to what was not listed in terms of provisions. For example, you’d have to bring your own coffee, teas, paper towels, and bathroom hand soaps (although napkins and bath soap bars were provided). Overall, a beautiful home at a great location with potentials for some minor improvements which I understand Patti will address in good spirit.

If you are looking for a place to rest, relax and reset your mind this is the place for you. Pajaro Dunes is a wonderful location to walk along the beach just steps away from the condo. It’s very peaceful and the resort grounds are clean. Soojin is a wonderful host and her condo was more than we could have asked for. Very clean, modern decor and the amenities provided were very well thought of especially in the kitchen and in the bathrooms. Beach amenities were provided as well. We hope to return and bring our family and friends to join us next time around.

This place felt like we were staying at a classy, upscale friend’s place. Seriously, the quality of the amenities to the mugs to the thoughtful touches spread all over the home were very much appreciated. Ideal location that is walking distance to the beach and driving distance to the many scenic spots that the Santa Cruz area has to offer. Would 100% stay here again!

We had a great time here! Clean, great location, and comfortable. Spent a few days here with my little kids because our place was getting painted, and we all had a great time. Short walk for beach and pool, park right next door, and a beautiful view from the living room. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Aptos.

This was the perfect place for my family and I to relax and enjoy. Plenty to do and a great little restaurant right on location. Sidharth was awesome to communicate with and was very proactive.

Amy's place was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located to Monterey/Big Sur, grocery stores and the beach. It was perfect for three of us (parents + adult child) and gave us a great home-base for exploring the area for the week. There was a bit of noise at night and early in the morning from adjacent neighbors and things going on outside (vehicles, trash collection, etc.) but it wasn't disruptive to our stay. As an added bonus, there was a delicious little cafe and coffee shop in the shopping center just across the street (Cafe Mia Brew Bar & Bistro) - would recommend breakfast or lunch there for sure!
