Description

Welcome to “The Artist’s Way”! Sleeps up to 3 guests

A romantic rooftop apartment with a private balcony overlooking downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea is just steps away from Ocean Avenue and all of the galleries, restaurants and shops that make the town such a distinctive vacation destination.

Old World charm is the hallmark of this 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment, with many unique and vintage accents that artistic souls will love. A renowned artist-owned gallery, Carmel Art Association, is directly across the street and features works by local painters and sculptors. From this location, it’s easy to park your car and go on foot to many different attractions.

The 525-square-foot residence is on the upper floor of a courtyard that includes numerous businesses, including French-American bistro Etats-Unis, and is also just steps away from the Hog’s Breath Inn, formerly owned by Clint Eastwood, as well as a variety of other well-known restaurants within a few blocks. In addition, the apartment is just a few minutes by car from the beach, and just 10 minutes to the world-class golf courses and restaurants of Pebble Beach®, to monarch butterfly sightings in Pacific Grove, or to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row. Other attractions within a half hour’s drive are the natural wonders of Big Sur and wine tasting and dining in Carmel Valley Village.

Hardwood floors, whitewashed vaulted ceilings, and handcrafted plaster walls are among the attractive features, as well as vintage built-in cabinets that provide plenty of storage space. A color scheme in soothing tones of white, gray and blue reflect the nearby ocean environment, and eclectic décor captures the creative spirit of Carmel.

Upon your arrival, you will be greeted with complimentary cheese and wine or sparkling cider, wine tasting passes and a basket of local information. An assigned concierge vacation house manager is available to assist you during your stay. We have also provided spa amenities in the bathrooms, as well as spa robes, and beach gear with everything you need for a day at the beach, including chairs, blankets, towels, umbrella and cooler.

Guests enter through a shabby chic door that leads into the living room, where large windows let in generous amounts of natural light, but with curtains if privacy is desired.

A private balcony off the living room features bistro seating and wrought iron railings, a perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening.

The living room includes a 50-inch HDTV and comfortable seating that includes a full-size sleeper sofa. A kitchen with deep sink, built-in storage and a gas stove are available next to a dining area that seats two.

The bedroom features a queen bed and a large en suite bath, with a pedestal sink, a tub/shower combination, large sunflower shower head and a built-in cabinet and drawers with ample room for storing personal items.

Laundry service is available but there are no laundry facilities in the building. Cars may be parked on the street - no parking spaces are provided.

We loved our stay here. It's located within walking distance to all the restaurants and shops while being hidden in a beautiful courtyard. The balcony is a lovely place to sit, and the apartment was well-furnished with everything from beach towels, beach umbrella, and beach bag to multiple coffee makers, toaster, etc. The bed was super comfortable. It was well-cleaned and all the furnishings were new. The only downside is the apartment does get hot in the afternoons and is cold in the mornings. It's an older building so the windows and doors don't always open/close that well and it's not well-insulated. All in all though, we had a lovely stay and the property management team was helpful.

"This is a really great property — one of the nicest we’ve rented through VRBO and in a super convenient location. Extremely clean, comfortable, and nicely appointed. We would definitely stay here again."

GUESTS STAYED september 2020  ~  REVIEWED ON vrbo  ~  5 OUT OF 5 STARS

"This property is truly special! Location is steps away from downtown restaurants and shops, yet quiet as it is tucked away at the back of a small courtyard of shops. Small patio was wonderful to sit and enjoy a glass of wine before or after dinner. (Keep watch for a curious pack of racoons though!) We were concerned about parking, as the property does not come with a dedicated space, but unrestricted parking was available on a residential street a few blocks away. (Not sure if this would be as easy once pre-COVID crowds return, but it worked for this stay.) Apartments was extremely clean and bright. It had everything we needed for our stay. Check in was effortless and the property manangement company was very attentive. We would definitely stay here again!"

~ L. Reiling, Lafayette, CA

"The unit is right in downtown. I was there during covid so although the parking in the neighborhood is 2 hour permit parking, I didn't have a problem. I moved the car once or twice, but never saw a meter maid. Loved the location and the bed was super comfortable. The water pressure was a little weak and when the other unit was occupied it was worse, but it wasn't that big of a deal to me. I would totally stay here again and hope to soon!"
