Love this place! This is our go-to lodging in the Monterey-Carmel area. Wendy and her crew are the friendliest innkeepers you could want. We have stayed three times since 2021, each time in the Cottage, a small separate building near the main house. It has a living room and sitting room separated by an arch. There's a gas fireplace in the sitting area and a huge jacuzzi tub. The toilet room, which is where the shower is, is *tiny*; that's the only drawback. The morning crew brought us breakfast at the cottage every day. Great breakfasts that managed to stay hot despite the distance from the kitchen. Otherwise there is a big dining table in the dining room in the house. Wine in the evening (we didn't attend). The house looks like an old English country estate. It's an historic property about a 15 minute walk from FIsherman's Wharf, which keeps it close to everything but away from the noise of downtown. The cottage was very quiet. We hope we will be able to enjoy many stays there!

The Old Monterey Inn is a hidden treasure tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Our room was comfortable, and we loved the delicious breakfast served in the beautiful dining room. A lush garden surrounds the property adding ambiance to the Inn. The staff was very friendly and attentive to our needs. Cheese and wine are provided between 16:00 and 18:00 each day which added a wonderful touch to our stay. We will be back.

The Old Monterey Inn is a hidden treasure. An extremely quiet neighborhood during our stay surrounded by an enchanted garden, yet within walking distance to shops and restaurants nearby. Beautiful and comfortable room and delicious breakfasts served in our room, although the dining room was so beautiful and difficult to pass up for morning breakfast. The (OMI) Carmel Martin house is an interesting, historic house which was well appointed yet comfortable at the same time. I enjoyed reading about its history. The staff was attentive and kind as well. We will have to return on our next visit to the Monterey/Carmel area.

The only way to describe this inn is magical. I am not one to wax eloquently but our stay was truly flawless. As we pulled into the narrow driveway, two deer appeared as if in a fairy tale. Wendy, our hostess, was beyond accommodating. They stick a fridge with yogurt and sodas 24/7. The happy 2 hours had lovely snacks and wine, while the breakfasts were indescribably delicious. The gardens are enchanting. Quiet and very comfortable room, everything we needed or wanted. My boyfriend isn’t a fan of small inns and I scoffed at the price, but we were both wrong. He’s still not willing to try any other B&Bs, as they will never live up to this one. I feel our visit was worth every penny.

One of my daughters attends college in CA. She asked if I could come and visit for Mother’s Day. She also included her sister and her roommate, so we had a girls weekend. It was a fabulous stay and I would love to return someday. The Inn is charming, comfortable and unique. One can walk through the gardens and enjoy outdoor spaces while enjoying complimentary wine and snacks in the late afternoon. Hence, our arrival was later than planned due to traffic on a Friday but Wendy the Inn Keeper quickly settled us with wine and treats upon our arrival, a great way to start the weekend after a tiring car ride. The rooms are all unique and interesting. The furnishings and decor are lovely and comfortable. Oh, did I mention that breakfast is also included and you can enjoy it in the dining room or request to have it delivered to your room. Breakfast each day was scrumptious and beautifully plated. I love getting up and starting my day with a homemade, delicious, well balanced breakfast. Oh one daughter has a food allergy and the Inn staff were very accommodating. Highly recommend. We had a wonderful stay and I hope to return some day. Oh and we went hiking along the ocean cliffs nearby, whale watching, visited the aquarium, shopped in Carmel, and found terrific restaurants for dinner nearby.
