Good energies!

We had such a pleasant break from the daily grind in the city, what really stood out was the friendly, professional staff, short stroll and your toes are in the sand, and the mimosas kept coming on Sunday morning. Thanks for helping us reset ourselves!

I think that everyone should stay at the La Playa Hotel when in Carmel. It has all the things. Its beautiful! The service is wonderful! The bountiful buffet breakfast is amazing. Buds Bar is so cozy and cute. Welcome glass of wine or sangria! Yummy warm chocolate chip cookies in the evening! Transportation to nearby restaurants. There is a pool but too cold in February! Walkable to the Gorgeous beach and shopping. What else could you ask for? A definite recommend!
