Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights and we absolutely loved it. The staff was nice and helpful and we loved how they offered so many treats throughout our stay. They serve complimentary wine late afternoon/early evening and freshly baked cookies in the evening. Their complimentary champagne breakfast is amazing! We were super impressed with the different options they had and everything was delicious. I also love how they can make you pretty much any coffee beverage you’d like. The grounds is beautiful and walking distance to the beach. They also offer shuttle service from 5 pm- 11pm but if you opt to walk to Ocean Ave for dinner, it’s just a short walk away. Highly recommended this hotel! Look forward to our next visit!

We loved everything about the La Playa! Celebrated our daughter’s wedding and can’t wait to be back to enjoy more time there. The most favorite things by far-the location and beautiful grounds etc. and the staff. So incredibly professional, helpful, and gracious!

The hotel is in a wonderful location in the outskirts of Carmel by the sea. It’s a small boutique hotel. The lobby has a lounge area and a fireplace. It is somewhat expensive. When you check in, you are offered some tastes of various local wines. We checked in on Sunday and there was a jazz trio in the bar, which was great fun. They serve chocolate chip cookies at 7:30 every evening In the lobby. The beds are great. The buffet breakfast in the morning which is included in the hotel price is amazing. We did this to celebrate my partners 80th birthday and we had a great time.
