Monterey & Carmel

A Romantic, Pet-Friendly Retreat in Carmel

Set in a quiet residential neighborhood just three blocks from downtown, Carmel Country Inn offers a warm, residential-style retreat known for its exceptional pet-friendly hospitality. Suites and studios feature fireplaces and soaking tubs, creating a cozy, comfortable setting for longer stays. Four-legged guests are warmly welcomed with thoughtful amenities, including unlimited biscuits and treats, pet strollers, and even a bathing station for sandy paws. Mornings begin with a generous breakfast served in the kitchen, on garden patios, or in-room, while afternoons bring freshly baked cookies and refreshments. Carmel’s shops and restaurants are just a short stroll away.
