High quality sheets, towels and Beautiful gardens & views out to the sea & beach. Wonderful property for us and our dogs. Great care & thought given to the property by the owner. We are in our 80s...and my balance isn't the best after foot surgery, so the entrance to the front door down a gradual slope with small steps and no hand rails was a little concerning for me. But, overall, the studio with fenced-in garden is surely the best you'll find in Carmel in VRBO. Thanks, Bill. From Mickie, Doug, Kirby & Toby. ##### Mickie L.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Bill had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The apartment itself was an ideal retreat for a couple—cozy, beautifully furnished, and equipped with all the amenities we could possibly need. The attention to detail was impeccable. The grounds surrounding the apartment were pristine and provided a serene environment that made our time there even more special. We truly appreciated all of Bill’s helpful information about the area, which made our exploration of Carmel even more enjoyable. His hospitality went above and beyond our expectations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better host. We left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated and are already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you, Bill, for a truly wonderful stay! ##### Kari W. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024
