Beautiful home and location!

We had a fantastic time at this house! Proximity to the beach was great as well as nice walks through the neighborhood. There was enough space in the house for the kids to be in one space and the adults in another. Kitchen had everything we need to cook for a large group and everything was in great condition and clean. Communication with the management company was wonderful. Would highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful, clean and the best natural lighting ever!

We loved our time at Dolce Tempo. I am the pickiest when it comes to cleanliness and this place was spotless. Not even a hair or fuzz in sight. The natural lighting with big windows and the trees outside makes you feel like you’re wrapped in a narnia setting. I woke up every morning seeing pretty roses outside of my room. The kitchen was well stocked and the all the sanctuary employees were kind and intentional. We were super closer to the beach and Carmel by the sea! The neighborhood was safe and perfect in every way. Thank you for helping our family make sweet memories and we’d book this home over and over again!

We loved our stay at dolce tempo. The neighborhood was beautiful and a great spot for our morning walks. It was a short walk to the beach and the kids loved that. We went to downtown Carmel quite a few times bc it was a short drive. The house was very clean and well stocked with kitchen and bath supplies. The kids room windows didn’t work so it got a little warm by the end of the day but the bunk bed setup was a huge plus for them :) We loved our stay and will be returning!

We Had a Great Stay
by Houston, TX
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
We had a great stay. The house is peaceful and charming. Great amenities including a grill, outdoor seating area, a family room with TV and a back room that comes handy if you need to take phone calls for work or similar. Missing a space for work that is not the dining table.

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!

Perfect house for our family Carmel trip
by Madison WI

Overall Comment
We stayed in this house with our family including little kids, parents and grandparents. It met and exceeded everyone's needs. We loved the proximity to 2 beaches, an easy walk to Mission Ranch, and close to downtown Carmel. The house had everything we needed and the layout was great for those staying up late and getting up early. We would not hesitate to rebook this house on our return to the area.

I stayed here with five other women for a long weekend, and it was perfect for us! Plenty of room to spread out, and the quick walk to the beach and Mission Ranch was perfect. The linens on the beds were great, and there was cheese, crackers, and wine waiting for us when we checked in. We would definitely book again!
