Carmel Valley Ranch has always been an escape with plenty of room to roam, to explore, to discover. Where people rekindle romances, reunite with friends and family, revive spirits, or simply get away and play. And these days, play is more important than ever. Our all-suite accommodations are where the luxury of resort living meets the call of the wild. Swap stories by the fireplace. Gaze at the stars from your private deck as you savor a glass of wine from our own vineyard. You’ll be comfy, carefree, and most of all, captivated. The only Pete Dye-designed bentgrass golf course in Northern California is right here at Carmel Valley Ranch, and no matter how you slice it (or hook it), this par-70 layout offers something for all players: tactical shots, dramatic elevation changes and incredible scenery. Our talented artisans add a unique twist to experiences at The Ranch—join them and hang out with horses, say hello to honeybees, greet our goats, and more.

This is our fourth or fifth time staying, not including visiting friends and family staying here. It’s perfect for families!! We used to come as a couple and loved the wine/cheese/beekeeping/resort vibes in total safety. As a family it was soo amazing. The kids activities are a blast! Little ranchers with joss and Jain was superbly adorable even with rain! Jeff and Sophia were great trying to accommodate when a reservation went sideways and with everything else. The breakfast buffet is free for toddlers and so yummy. The resort has a gated/guarded entrance. You take a golf cart and shuttle around (or walk/drive). It was super rainy otherwise my Todd would have used a scooter. There are so many pools. They’re all heated like most of the day and night. The kids area is perfect. Really every amenity you could need. Compared to what things cost in the Bay Area you get so much more. Excited to be back- also perfect for family reunions and friend handouts (so many large groups of friends this trip).

This is the perfect stay whether you’re with family or a couple. CVR offers so many activities on-campus beyond the golf-course itself; my husband and I loved the corral and all the animal experiences (as did my nephew). Spa Aiyana was also wonderfully relaxing. I also really appreciated that it’s so dog-friendly, so that our pup wouldn’t have to be boarded while we were away. Overall, we loved spending our winter holiday here and plan to be back soon so we can pack in more of the excursions!

The remodel River Ranch is nice. Also they have now more EV charging stations (non Tesla charging stations) which is more convenient. Oh, the duck in Valley Kitchen is really good.

The resort has a large campus about 500 acres, The beautiful hill, golf course, vineyard, animal farm. We would be back again in the summer when vineyard and lavender field are blooming.

What a pleasant surprise! We had no idea there was so much being offered at the Hyatt - exploring adventures, golf, lunch with donkeys/goats, off road tour of the ranch, homemade goat cheese, smores in the evenings, a welcome wine and freshly baked cookies, the list goes on and on. The facility is stunning, on top of the hill. The service is 5 stars! They go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need.
