Hotel Description
Welcome to your Carmel-by-the-Sea home away from home. Can you already feel a cool ocean breeze on your skin? Smell the salty air with hints of Carmel Pine trees? Hear the breaking waves in the distance? Relaxation sets in even before you open the gate to The Salty Dog! Inside, a lush, private garden courtyard with a welcoming fire pit awaits you.
This home features four comfortable bedrooms and two full bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to seven people. The expansive front of the house features a luxury (and private) outdoor living space with a beautiful stone patio, sofa seating, and a dining area, creating a peaceful, open-air setting. The circular seating around the fire pit allows for conversation, snuggling with a great book, or quiet reflection.
Upon entering our recently renovated, light-filled home, a welcome tote bag with goodies will be waiting for you!
Inside, you’ll find a gas fireplace that opens to both the living and dining areas. The living room has a large art-frame smart TV, a new, comfy sofa, an oversized chair, and more. An entire wall of glass looks out onto the front patio and garden. The fully equipped kitchen has modern appliances, an oven, a gas stove, a microwave, plenty of storage, an espresso maker, a coffee maker, a high-end juicer, an ice maker, spices, oils, condiments, and all the pots, pans, bowls, and utensils to make meals. A Dutch door leads to the side yard and back deck, which has a freestanding gas BBQ, commercial outdoor heater, and another private seating area.
The main level also features two guest bedrooms (one double and one queen bed), one bathroom, a laundry area with a washer and dryer, a clothesline, an iron, and an ironing board. A dutch door provides access to the back deck.
To access the primary bedroom and the upper balcony deck, you must be able to climb stairs.
The upstairs boasts a third guest bedroom (queen bed) and a spacious primary bedroom (king bed). Both bedrooms have access to the full bathroom with a tub/shower. Large windows look out onto the treetops and a gorgeous ocean view! There is a second fireplace and a walk-in closet located in the primary bedroom. Each bedroom has a dutch door leading to the upper deck.
The detached office cottage has a tv, a leather sofa, and room to work on a puzzle or have a game/movie night! The recently remodeled space also serves as a quiet office, separate from the main house. A desk, printer, and some office supplies are provided. A wall of windows and French doors leads to the front garden, stone patio, and fire pit.
The upper deck is a spacious oasis with gorgeous ocean views, stunning sunsets, forest views, and comfortable seating around a fire pit.
We have a driveway and a parking spot in front of the house. We do not have a garage.
The Salty Dog is located on the north end of Carmel-by-the-Sea and adjacent to the Pescadero Canyon. (The property is located on San Carlos Street between Alta and Vista. The VRBO location site is sometimes inaccurate, so it's best to refer to a Carmel map to verify the home's location.) It is an eight-block walk (and a 3-minute drive) to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea with its famed restaurants and shops, or a ten-block walk (and a 3-minute drive) to the beach along our village’s charming streets. The Forest Hill Park, nestled within the neighborhood forest, is just around the corner from The Salty Dog and offers a playground, public restrooms, a basketball half-court, and public tennis courts.
