Beach condo holiday rentals in Carmel-by-the-Sea

We had a wonderful stay at this condo. It’s absolutely perfect and has everything you could possibly need. We were especially delighted to find chopsticks, which totally made our day since we were planning to have ramen and thought we’d have to use forks! The view from the condo is stunning, like something out of a movie, and it was such a treat to have easy access to the beach. Watching the sunset was one of the highlights of our trip. The host was very responsive and provided clear, helpful instructions for everything, from check-in and check-out to using the washer. The check-in process with the gate attendant was smooth and made us feel extra secure. Everything was super clean and thoughtfully prepared. We stayed at several Airbnbs along Route 1, and this one was undoubtedly the best. Highly recommend!

Oh, the views!!! I rented the space for family from out of town. They were over the moon. The location ‘right on the sand’ was incredible! That’s what you’re paying for. The home itself could be amazing with a few updates. A beach property will never feel clean with carpet. Just that simple change would make the home feel updated and bring more value. There is no light on the balcony, so bring a lantern if you enjoy sitting outside after sunset. Furnishings are dated but comfortable. Overall, the week with my family so close was the best thing I could ask for.

Everything was just as described - kitchen was well stocked and had the staples which I appreciated - plenty of coffee too! Beach location was wonderful - 5 out of 5!

This was a great spot for our family! Super clean, great amenities and views! Highly recommend!

We have been renting Airbnb properties in Capitola for years. This unit was by far my favorite. Absolutely everything was perfect. The place was immaculate and so well outfitted. I hope to come many many more times!

We stayed with a family of seven for 3 days and the place was spot on. we loved everything about the place, the proximity to the beach, the pool, all the places that you can walk around, proximity to the closest beaches and places that you can chill with family and friends. would highly recommended.

My husband and I stayed here for our one year wedding anniversary and it was such a beautiful place to stay! Supper cozy and romantic! Even better in person than the pictures! All of the large windows overlooking the ocean was so awesome! And you can go to sleep listening to the ocean waves! This place is literally right on the beach! Like steps away which was awesome! And only like 15 min drive from Santa Cruz! The check in & check out process was super easy which was great! We did have a problem with ants wanting to attack the kitchen but other than that we have no complaints! Thank you!

We stayed here with our 3-year-old son and all had a wonderful time! The unit we were in was exceptionally clean, quiet, and even had a small view of the ocean! The playground, pool, and beach were all right outside our door and were the highlight of our stay. Trader Joe’s and Target were less than 10 minutes away which was great too. It was a perfect spot to stay as we ventured through Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur. Although, the condo was so relaxing we easily could have just stayed put the entire time! Would definitely love to come back! Thanks for being such a great host and for the excellent communication and quick responses!

We had such a lovely stay in Capitola. The condo was perfect…very clean and comfortable, and stocked with everything you need. It is conveniently located near the main street, and walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. We would love to stay here again on our next visit!

We spent a long week At The Dunes. We come back to Pajaro Dune at all opportunities we have to recharge in this wonderful wild and inspiring place. The apartment was everything we needed for 2 people. I loved the coffee beans and grinder, I used it every morning. The place has a balcony and windows right over the ocean view. The only change I would recommend is a better and bigger bed.

Excellent place within right on the beach!

Great place in a great location in Carmel. Up to date, good kitchen, comfy beds, excellent water.

Thank you Mary for a wonderful vacation, it was a fantastic trip, the place is very beautiful, amazing view from the window, the apartment is clean and cozy, everything is there for a comfortable vacation, we were delighted. I recommend to everyone who loves comfort, coziness and a beautiful view of the ocean!!! Thank you!!!!

Everyone at the resort was so friendly and willing to answer any questions we had. The resort was beautiful and everything was super clean and we organized.

Best host ever! Annie was absolutely amazing—so kind and thoughtful. The condo was perfect—beautifully maintained, fully stocked with drinks and everything we needed for a fantastic vacation. The view was incredible, and the location couldn’t have been better. We highly recommend staying here and definitely plan to come back. Thank you, Annie!

This was our first Airbnb experience. I can confidently say that we are convinced that Airbnb’s are the way to go for in home comfort away from home. It had everything that we needed on hand. If we wanted to cook, it had pots pans and even baking pans, if we got our fav clothes dirty at the beach we could wash and dry and be ready to go again. And speaking of beach it was only a 2 min walk. Over all it was a great experience for me, my wife and my kids. We are planning to come back soon.

I had a wonderful stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, making sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. You can really tell they care about their guests and take pride in providing a great experience. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-managed place to stay. Thank you for everything!

This was a fantastic place to stay!! The only odd aspect was an 8:00 pm curfew. Otherwise, it was very clean, well managed and comfortable. The view is amazing and the walk to the beach is 💯

Our favorite part was the walk to the expansive beach. The resort is very nice, and the condo was great.

Stayed with my husband and parents here for our wedding week that was happening in the area. The place was plenty spacious for 4 people! Much better than a hotel room would’ve been. Gave us quality time cooking in the kitchen and hanging out in the living room, enjoying the hottub & heated pool and the beach! The ocean view from the dining table and the front porch is STUNNING!! The place is nice, well kept, and has everything you need! Any small things that popped up, Patti was helpful and fixed right away! Would definitely stay here again!!

Perfect for a peaceful holiday within walking distance of a beautiful beach, warm heated pools and stunning coastal views. The apartment was super clean, quiet and we made use of the gas fireplace in evenings for heat and atmosphere. I was able to park in front of the property no problems. Will definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful short getaway at Sue’s place! The condo is just steps from the beach, pool, and jacuzzi. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was relaxing, and the ocean breeze was very refreshing. It was exactly what we needed to reset and recharge. Everything was just as described, and we would stay here again! Thank you, Sue!

Great condo with an excellent view! Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Amazing views and walk to the beach. Beautiful beach! Perfect condo with lots of great touches like the bidet, and cutco knives.
