Sanctuary Vacation Rentals in Carmel-By-The-Sea, California

“I read the reviews and knew that the downstairs restaurant noise can be loud until 10pm. Unfortunately, on Thursday nights, the noise from the employees throwing trash in the bins right behind/under the apt went on until past 11pm. There’s a large construction project going on one side of the block across the street. This makes parking extra limited. On Friday morning, trash trucks and construction noise started at 6:40 am. The building is very old, with old doors and windows which means the outside noises were extra loud. So overall, terrible sleep situation. A couple of other inconveniences. Some of the bins in the apt had other people’s trash in them when we arrived. We had trouble with getting stuck in the bedroom or bathroom bc the super old door knobs don’t turn reliably. It smelled a bit like trash generally, I assume, from the restaurant bins below.”

“Simply wonderful, well appointed, clean and perfect for our stay”

“This was a perfect place to stay while staying in Carmel by the sea. Really cozy vibes with an amazing view of the ocean and front yard eating area. Would definitely stay here again.”

“Nice place. Good location. Great stay. I’d definitely repeat”

“We had a nice little stay here! It’s a really cute place in the middle of super charming Carmel-by-the-sea. Upon arrival the host had some fresh cheese and crackers for us which was a very sweet and gracious touch. Best part was SO many fresh towels and our dog was allowed!! We are very thankful for that. There was a chest with such a great book I read my kids and fell in love with this author (Kermit the Hermit!) One not great thing was that both queen beds do not have a comforter blanket, just a thin quilt blanket! It did feel a tad corporate…For example, having to reach out to a mgmt company, the coffee pods, black makeup towels and some plastic signs around the place. Felt kind of “stale”…Airbnb overall these days is just not quite homey feel and experience it used to be. Otherwise, location and in general everything was smooth.”
