About this property

3580 The Carmel Penthouse ~ Walk to the Beach, Available for Extended Stays!

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present “Carmel Penthouse”! Sleeps up to 4 adults.

Enjoy the luxurious Carmel-by-the-Sea experience without ever having to get in your car from this sophisticated 1070 square feet, 2-bedroom flat, located in the heart of this charming village and just a few blocks from the beach. Sit on the balcony and enjoy filtered views over treetops of the ocean and Point Lobos and a small park across the street, while all the exciting cultural offerings of this lively community are just outside your door.

The entrance to The Penthouse is tucked away in a charming courtyard. A flight of stairs leads to an exterior passageway to the entrance of this spotless updated hideaway that would be a perfect romantic honeymoon destination or an artist’s retreat.

The entry hall opens to a great room that includes the living room and kitchen.

The living room, which has rattan shades on floor-to-ceiling windows, faces west and opens out to a long, narrow wrap around balcony partially framed in glass. The balcony is furnished with 2 teak chairs and a section of petrified wood from a tree trunk that serves as an occasional table to hold your late afternoon aperitifs while you enjoy the sunset. Soft coastal light floods in from windows built into an elevated cupola in the ceiling. Furnishings include a taupe sofa, metal and unfinished wood coffee table, two rattan chairs with upholstered cushions, a dark wood bureau console and a 56” flat-screen TV.

The chef's dream kitchen has glossy ivory cabinets, granite counter-tops, stainless steel appliances including a side-by-side refrigerator, gas range, dishwasher and microwave, and a long island that contains the sink and kitchen counter seating. Well-equipped for extended stays!

Lovely Carmel Penthoise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental unit was in a great location. The interior of the apartment was beautifully decorated and very clean. Kitchen was well stocked with everything a chef needs! The view was beautiful and it was great to be able to cook and look out at the ocean at sunset and in the morning. Close to restaurants and shopping but nice and quiet at night. The parking situation ended up with us having to rent garage space about 5 blocks away. Unless you have a smart car the parking space that comes with this unit is too small for any other car.

Great Condo right in Town

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 4th time staying in this condo in Carmel by the Sea. Looks just like the pictures, plus an ocean view that you just can't appreciate without seeing it in-person. The management team here is fantastic, the place is super clean - especially important during these days of Covid 19. Windows all around, great light, skylights, updated kitchens and baths. Couple of local seagulls stopped by every day to entertain my daughter. Park your car and walk everywhere from this place.

Fantastic Carmel Experience

We have been to Carmel many times and it is always a special place. It was made more special by staying right downtown in such a nice apartment. The apartment was clean and well appointed. There is some town noise in the early mornings with the street cleaning and sanitation trucks but nothing that would prevent us from staying again at this apartment.
