Bernardus Lodge and Spa

The hotel is located about 15 miles from downtown Carmel. The grounds and views are beautiful. The rooms are well appointed with very comfortable furnishings and plenty of space to relax. From the Valet, servers and housekeeping, service was top notch. Our dinner and breakfasts were excellent. We were able to uber to town one night. We totally enjoyed our stay.

Amazing hospitality! Super friendly people. Beautiful landscaping. Maintained to perfection. Our room was appointed very attractively. They charge my electric vehicle for free. We left with beautiful memories of this place and hope to come back soon.

My wife and I came here for my birthday during the week. We live about 20 minutes from here, but with the bad weather, we thought this would be the perfect time to visit and stay at Bernardus for two nights. From check-in to check-out, everything was perfect. The staff were so friendly, informative, everyone knew us by our last name as we walked around the grounds. The Santa Lucia room was beautiful, clean, and perfectly updated. The bathroom was huge. The bed was so comfortable. Our outdoor private jacuzzi was amazing. We had complimentary water, wine, cheese, and snacks that my wife loved. The grounds are beautiful. We walked around for an hour exploring the rose garden, the chefs garden, all the different pools and jacuzzis. We played bocce ball on the lawn for an hour or so. They also have croquet but we didn’t play. We read on the patio in the afternoon sun. Perfect!!! We had massages and facials, and everything in the spa was perfect, from the friendly staff to the excellent treatments. We had dinner and breakfast at Lucia both mornings. Amazing food all around. Special thanks to Garrett and David at the front desk. They were so helpful and we enjoyed talking to them throughout our stay. Overall, a great stay. No need for us to get away and drive for hours to reach a destination. Can’t wait to come back.

Did a staycation with my husband celebrating 35 years of Togetherness. This property is beautiful and the friendly staff made our stay extra special. The room was huge and gorgeous. The views are amazing. Cozy fireplace in our room. Definitely worth it.

This was our fourth stay at the Lodge & Spa, and Bernardus remains a premier destination for R&R and fine food & wine. The rooms are very comfortable, and Lucia is an outstanding restaurant. The customer service orientation permeates the entire property, and it is the best we've ever encountered. As usual, we enjoyed our stay tremendously and continue to recommend this resort wholeheartedly.
