A wonderful home.It’s a beautiful home, 4 couples of us really enjoyed it a lot! The top floor with living room, kitchen and dining room was wide and bright with big windows showing beautiful ocean views. The lower two levels of bedrooms were even better, each room was very roomy with its own bathroom and balcony with great views too, you couldn’t find this kind of setup in any other homes. They also kept good contacts with us and provided great services. One of us missed placed her precious sunglasses and couldn’t find it anywhere. We contacted the company after we left, and they found the sunglasses and were willing to mail them back to our friend. Our friend was so super happy about it. We had a wonderful stay and left there with very sweet and happy memories. Thank you for the wonderful house and great services!

I loved my stay at Highlands in Carmel!It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. The building was exceptionally clean. While the location is a bit farther than it appears in the photos, it still offers the most stunning views of both the ocean and the forest, and it's situated in a beautiful area.I especially appreciated that the windows didn’t have curtains—you could enjoy the breathtaking scenery at all times. Each bedroom had its own private bathroom, which was a great convenience.We stayed here to bike the 17-Mile Drive, and the location was perfect for that.Working with Vrbo was also a great experience—communication was smooth and easy throughout the process.I would absolutely stay here again!

Rented the house for our extended family during car week. House was large enough to accommodate our family, close enough to the action in town and the views were amazing.

It’s on side of mountain so expect a curvy ride up. This road is explained on the notes. Beautiful place to stay and awesome views. Carmel/Monterrey area is awesome! Lots to see and do.

Great Carmel highlands homes

Lovely home with lovely views. We enjoyed 4 days here. The home is up a very steep driveway, so don’t plan on walking anywhere. We wish it had an outdoor table and chairs as well as a grill, but we made due. Very comfortable home to stay at.

Kitchen is severely lacking, no good cookware and not even a cutting board. Place is great but needs to step it up on kitchen and no patio furniture either.
