Nothing! Our stay was great

Away from the hustle and bustle of Carmel’s main streets, staff was accommodating, there’s a jacuzzi on site, wine & cheese hour from 4-6pm, idyllic rooms, breakfast baskets every morning.

Rooms were clean. Needs a little updating in the kitchen area. But the snacks and breakfast were so cute. Easy walk right into downtown and restaurants so close.

no complaints

The morning picnic basket breakfast was excellent. People at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. The four o'clock happy hour was also enjoyable.

We enjoyed everything.

Beautiful out of the bustle of the hustle and bustle of the main part of town. Very clean and comfortable. Afternoon wine and cheese was so enjoyable and views of the ocean very pretty. Town was a very comfortable walk.

We found the beds very soft.

The room was lovely with a balcony. We liked the picnic breakfast delivered each morning and the cheese and wine available each afternoon. The staff were very friendly. It’s a short walk to the town and the beach.

Pam met us at check-in and was warm and informative. Horizon is beautifully situated away from the hurly-burly of downtown Carmel while only a few minutes away on foot. We enjoyed the happy hour of local wines and cheeses, the roominess of our room, the gas fireplace, and available parking. There was also a small hot tub for a good soak. The bedding was elegant. We had a hard time, though, adjusting to the pillows--either too big or too small and soft. We thought the window was locked in place but later figured out that it was merely stuck (Room 112). We liked the overhead fan, multiple mirrors, great shower. The robes were stylish but polyester and too warm. Overall, highly recommended.

Loved the daily breakfast delivered to your door. Staff were very friendly. The area was quiet and relaxing, and we loved that we had parking available.

No A/C but did have a ceiling fan. Rooms tend to be a little stuffy.

Breakfast was convenient and could request a basket the night before if leaving early in the morning.

Too much traffic outside, close to the street that there are lots of cars and noise. Should let visitors sign up for a 20-minute jacuzzi private time in advance.

Strange smell in a cottage.

Everything was taking care of and property looks beautiful.

Beautiful little intimate hotel that had great little additions that made our stay perfect! Love the breakfast basket that was left at our door each morning! Loved the robes that were provided! And the ceiling fan was great also, can’t live without a ceiling fan to cool the room.

Happy hour, hot tub, and breakfast basket

The room felt a little tired and didn't have the freshest smell. The bed was impossible for 2 people to sleep in - so bouncy that when one person moved / turned the other woke up. We didn't sleep very well at all. The room had no AC (no problem for us, just a remark). The room was pretty dark.

The staff was very friendly, the free breakfast in a basket was a nice touch with some fresh options. The room was clean and we even had an ocean view. The air was so nice and fresh! The location is great - just a couple of blocks from downtown, but a nice and quite street. The free parking was such a perk as there is limited parking in the area.

Location. Close to main st, ocean Ave, resturants & shops

The cost of the suite was $500 per night which was super expensive once we saw the room. It was very outdated and not spotless clean which you'd expect for that price. We had a great time overall but the breakfast was also lacking for the price... a basket at your door with fruit, boiled eggs, cantaloupe, bread and OJ basically. Better than nothing but still for the price of the room it was lacking.

The location was really nice and safe, super quiet too. The room was quaint and tucked away where nobody else was really. It was like a cottage/air b&b type vibe, I felt safe going across the street to smoke at night. I loved the modern hot tub, view and little kitchen area provided. There is a box fan in the room which was also nice for white noise at night.

The room was amazing. The view from the balcony was beautiful. The location allowed us to walk to the shopping areas and restaurants with a fair amount of ease. I had absolutely nothing I could complain about. It was a wonderful experience I would recommend to anyone and would love to return to.

I think they should have given me a free room upgrade. I have a bad knee and needed a down stairs room. It is 9 blocks from down town!

I like the hotel it has a hot tub. Very clean! The staff was great. They changed my room for me but did charge me . I like the cheese and wine in the evening. . Great staff! Love the little breakfast the delivered in a basket to your door!

Was a little tired, could do with a lick of paint Breakfast basket was convenient however contents were not great, day two included a hard roll and a boiled egg? Maybe because I am British and don’t like eggs but rather random.

Lovely staff, clean with good location.

Everything about this place is designed for ease and comfort. We had everything we needed in the room and the bed was very comfortable. We used the spa a lot. Parking was easy and it was also not difficult to walk to downtown. The staff was great and they bring breakfast to our room every morning in a picnic basket.
