The staff were friendly and helpful, however, and the food was great (though of course overpriced). overall, we would not choose to stay here again. more on CitySearch

Nice setting - rooms are very large and nicely appointed. Living room, separate bedroom, fireplaces in both areas. We had a nice deck to go out and relax on and spotted deer in the mornings wandering the grounds. The resort is tucked ... more on Yahoo! Travel

This is not your typical hotel. Each room that I've stayed in has had a wood-burning fireplace. It is set back in Carmel Valley and has ... more on Yahoo! Travel

We have stayed here twice. Once with kids, once without. While it is a great place to stay with kids, the dining on-site was not exactly ""kid"" friendly (we did it anyway).The views of Carmel Valley are beautiful and you are right ... more on TravelPost.com
