Carmel Riviera Vacation Packages

This is a hidden gem right near all the great restaurants in downtown Carmel, It was very comfortable and quiet with great sheets and towels on a comfy bed. For the price, it was a great choice and we are planning many returns. Staff was soooo helpful with wine tour and restaurant reservations.

Love the staff. Always excellent, especially the valet staff and restaurant staff. We have stayed here before and it’s just a beautiful property with spacious rooms and amazing views. I just would prefer higher quality toilet paper (lol!)

The property is really cute and the location is excellent! It is within walking distance of Ocean Avenue where there’s lots of shopping and a variety of restaurants. Be aware it is an old inn so it does not have air conditioning and the wall heater in the bedroom will not heat the bathroom. Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful location! Very clean rooms and the stay was very helpful!

I recently stayed at the Stilwell Hotel in Carmel-by-the-Sea, and it was truly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had in years. The property has clearly been beautifully and thoughtfully renovated —every detail feels intentional, elevated, and perfectly suited to the charm of Carmel. The design strikes a rare balance of being modern, warm, and sophisticated while still feeling authentic to the area. What really stood out, though, was the service. The staff were genuinely welcoming, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure every aspect of the stay was seamless. It’s the kind of hospitality that makes you feel taken care of without ever feeling intrusive. The amenities were fantastic, the rooms were extremely comfortable, and everything—from the finishes to the small touches—felt high quality and well curated. And the location simply couldn’t be better. You’re perfectly situated to walk everywhere in Carmel-by-the-Sea—restaurants, shops, galleries, and the beach are all just steps away. All in all, this was an exceptional stay. The Stilwell has quickly become one of my favorite places to stay in Carmel, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a boutique hotel experience done absolutely right. I’m already looking forward to my next visit.
