Wonderful little place! We enjoyed 3 nights here and it was very nice. Cute and quaint, as Carmel should be, and the breakfast and evening wine and cheese were the added bonus. For anyone not familiar with the traditional British breakfast of soft boiled eggs in the cups where you crack the top off and slice the toast into little strips for dipping into the soft yolk, this is one of the only places you can get this treat in all of the State of California! We loved the Vagabond's House! The beds were very comfortable, we had an upgraded bathroom and plenty of space. Staff was very nice and helpful. read more

My husband and I stayed at Vagabond Inn in Carmel this week, and there were definitely some highs and lows. The property is really charming and has that classic cozy Carmel vibe. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the happy hour with wine, cheese, and fruit was a great touch. The courtyard with the stone fire pit and waterfall is beautiful and makes the whole place feel extra inviting. You also really can't beat the location--it's an easy walk to the village, shops, restaurants, galleries, and the beach. Our room was updated, very clean, and well-appointed with a fireplace, large TV, microwave, fridge, and a nicely renovated bathroom. Now for the downsides... Carmel happened to be in a heat wave while we were there, and the room was HOT. There's no AC, and the tiny fan they gave us barely made a difference. It definitely made sleeping uncomfortable. But the biggest disappointment by far was the breakfast. For the price you're paying per night, it was honestly shocking how underwhelming it was. The only protein option was hard-boiled eggs (and if you don't eat eggs, you're out of luck). Everything else felt like the bare minimum--mediocre toast, bagels, croissants, granola, yogurt, etc. The yogurt was so watery we couldn't even eat it, and the rest was just very basic and forgettable. We did appreciate that it was delivered directly to our room. Overall, we did enjoy the stay because of the charm, location, and friendly staff, but the heat and especially the breakfast were definite letdowns. We'd consider coming back, but with much lower expectations for the food--and definitely not during a heat wave. read more

We stayed in room 11. It's clean, there is the sound of a water feature in the courtyard that is nice, the bathroom is amazing, there's a fireplace, fridge and a real coffee machine with some comfy chairs to relax in. The service is great! They also bring you a nice breakfast in the am! The downsides and probably dealbreakers for us is the noise-you can hear everyone talking, closing doors, etc. The actual bed mattress feels old and isn't very comfortable. The WiFi is spotty too.Put double paned windows in, better WiFi and a new mattress and you'd have it! Unfortunately we won't be staying here again. Back to the candle light we go. read more

Such a cozy and relaxing stay! Loved the heated bathroom floors, huge soaking tub, and the fireplace that made the room feel extra inviting. The antique windows added so much charm, and you can tell a lot of thought went into the little details. Jura automatic coffee machine it has an automatic espresso machines that grind beans fresh and can make drinks like espresso, cappuccino, latte, and flat whites with the touch of a button. Everything felt super comfortable--breakfast is personalized and delivered to your door step. No need to even leave. Walking to the beach is only a few minutes away. can't wait to come back! read more

Beautiful grounds. "Basic" breakfast brought to your door every morning. The perfect location from downtown Carmel. Anything you'd want is a text away. It's a little pricey but you get what you pay for. Room 11 was great. read more

Oh man. Loved this place! A++ service. Diego was awesome. The lobby coffee machine was a modern miracle, better than coffee shops in town. Daily breakfast was healthy and delicious. We were on our honeymoon there and soaked together in the huge tub. The fire place was easy to use and kept the room warm and cozy. The whole establishment was well curated. We stayed in room nine. It was nice and quiet. Brophys Tavern is across the street. Quick affordable food and snacks are available at 5th Ave Deli. There are so many great places in walking distance. read more

This place is so quaint, it's super cute, they are friendly in the front office. Very helpful, willing to help when it's needed. Morning breakfast is tasty and just enough. Beds are very comfy, at night when it gets cold there's always the fire to light and for that extra warmth booth there is the heater!!! The blankets are quite toasty!!!! We had two pups w us and they loved the blankets. I do wish they have them for sale, they should get some made to sell. Located in a really good location. The crackers at 4-6p is a nice touch to have in your room, in the office or to lounge around the fire pit. They have tea and coffee you can choose from till 730a-8p read more

Stayed many many times over the last 12 plus years. We have always had the best of times. Randal and Thomas have become a great example of what we enjoy so much about the B&B as has everyone else we have met there. The space is warm and welcoming, quiet and yet totally friendly... dogs and guests alike. Breakfast delivered as ordered, and wine hour with cheese and crackers great for enjoying by the fire pit. Our favorite caramel home away from home.... read more

Will 100% stay again, Randall was amazing for local recommendations and also just conversation (he is the best!!!). We stayed for our honeymoon and wished we could have stayed longer. The breakfast, was honestly so good for eggs and cereal and yogurt we left every day feeling fueled for a day of excursions. Plan on coming back as the second we got in we just felt the stress leave our bodies and immediately just feel happy. Could not recommend this place to enough people. Also the tea they have is soooo good, such a small thing but genuinely made me so excited I couldn't have enough!! read more

I think we found our new favorite inn in Carmel!

Did I mention the heated floors? Will definitely be back! read more

We had a wonderful time here at the Vagabond. Next time we want to try out one of the larger rooms with a vintage bathtub. Unfortunately many of their rooms were all booked up. Our room was clean, had all the amenities, cute small fireplace, nice view of the courtyard, a pretty camilia bush in front of our window and although the room was a bit small for my husband who is 6'4" the room was comfy. The filtered water taste amazing (not sure why), sheets were always clean and the room had no funky smells which I am so sensitive to. The hosts and staff we're wonderful. They have wine and snacks in the lobby and we had a wonderful conversation with one of the guests who is good friend with the owners/managers. During checkin they have you fill out their breakfast menu and omg their jam, croissants and soft boiled eggs were perfect everyday. We will definitely return. read more

Quaint, quiet, and cozy, the Vagabond's House Inn is an ideal place to retreat and recuperate when visiting Carmel-by-the-Sea. Located within walking distance of downtown Carmel (a few uneven blocks), this boutique B&B is superbly situated near Carmel cuisine (such as Le Soufflé and Toro) and nestled within a quiet, convenient neighborhood (one of the adjacent streets has untimed parking--essential because of the limited free and/or available parking within the city). While Carmel is dog friendly, the Vagabond's House Inn is dog welcoming. From the greetings with treats to the provided doggy blanket to the treat dishes on which our dog's name was handwritten, the personal attentiveness and touches by staff made the inn that much more inviting. (Only select rooms allow pets.) The mixture of modern and rustic decor makes the buildings and rooms sophisticated but not stuffy, refreshing yet reminiscent of simpler times. In fact, the Dutch door for the room was a simple design choice that delivered spaciousness and seclusion, openness and remoteness. The remainder of the room exuded elegance along with comfort--impressed, I spent a week after in search of the room's recliner. For those wandering to Carmel-by-the-Sea, wonder no further, the Vagabond's House Inn is worth the stay. read more

Happy we chose this spot! Clean and nice, centrally located, breakfast provided. They also offer a wine hour and have a cute patio with a fire pit. They deliver breakfast to your room and it was good. We stayed in room 7 and felt like it was our own room. Waking distance to everything we wanted to go to. Parking provided. The window view from our room was amazing. They don't have AC and it was unusually hot the first day/two of our stay. They brought us a fan but keep this in mind if you go when it is hot. They have a heater and a fireplace, nice touch. read more

Just stayed at this quaint B&B over Christmas and it was incredibly charming. Apparently it just got voted by Forbes as one of the best places to stay in Carmel, not surprised :). It is such a special place and Randal takes incredible care of all the guests there.

They also have a wonderful happy hour for the guests. Love it so much here! A must stay when in Carmel. read more

My husband and I have stayed here twice now for our January anniversary and we love it. The rooms are beautiful, the morning coffee and delivered croissants are a lovely touch, and the fact that they have the most awesome bathrooms ever, can't be mentioned enough! My husband also tacked on the roses and rosè option for our anniversary and so we had champagne and roses delivered to our room upon arrival. Beautiful! They also have a massage room on site that you can reserve a couples massage that is better than most we have received just about anywhere else ever! The only reason for my taking a star away from this review is the thermostat or lack there of in the room, and the fountain! The noise from the fountain is a distraction all night long to an otherwise quiet environment and I asked if they'd turn it off at night and they said no. As for the thermostat, there isn't one and the rooms get really hot! If you put the fireplace on, even for a little while for ambience in the winter, it gets to be so warm, especially with a feather bed, you can't cool down the room unless you sleep with the door or window in the bathroom open. Would be much better served to have an in room thermostat you can manipulate to your own comfort level. These two adjustments are what I'd be looking forward to in order to stay here annually. read more

I don't do B&Bs very often so I do not know how to critique this with any sense of where my expectations should be. But this place certainly did not disappoint! I can't wait to go back. My wife and I felt very welcomed by the hosts and the attention to detail made us feel like we were honored guests even though the house was full. We had one of the smallest rooms, but it was perfect for what we needed and it had a private patio for us to enjoy our morning breakfast. I like the old characteristics of the decor. read more

Amazing 2 night stay at The Vagabond's House. We enjoyed the complimentary wine & cheese served from 4-6pm in the beautiful patio as well as the breakfast in bed and espresso machine!

My husband and I came here for our anniversary. It was amazing! They were so kind and attentive. We had breakfast brought to us in the mornings at a time that suited us best. It was presented to us in a such a special way as well! Upon arrival we were greeted kindly checkin was easy. Our room was beautiful and had champagne chocolate, wine, and flowers sitting waiting forever us. They had a latte maker up at the front as well as a wine and cheese hours. It was a quiet peaceful relaxing atmosphere with the fountain continuously running and the smell of jasmine outside our window. It was super conveniently located close to town. We could walk to dinner or to the beach. I would stay here again and will be soon! read more

I really loved my stay here! It's such a cute inn, and all of the staff that I encountered here were so nice!! I stayed in room 10, which was on the second floor, and it was great! The room is so beautiful - it had such a modern, cozy feel to it. And the bathroom was gorgeous! Everything was so spacious with all the comforts of home - fireplace, huge TV with streaming services, a pretty big mini fridge with freezer, microwave, and sofa :) I would highly recommend this inn! The only difficult thing was parking - it was hard to find the dedicated parking lot, but street parking was doable. read more

Le Boss: "You need to sloooooooow down, you don't have to answer every email so quickly!" Me *as I'm rehearsing my to-do list in my head*: "NO, I CAN'T! Things will pile up..." Le Boss: "You need to chill!" Me: "Ok, I'm taking a couple of days off for a staycation in Carmel - see ya on Tuesday!" Le Boss: "Wait, WHAAA - I need you to...!" Hey, he said to chill so I'm going to chill! Peace out!!! But, as a neurotic Virgo, this staycation was planned six months ago (he just forgot that he approved my time off months ago)... I love Carmel for its quaint, small town charm and picturesque ocean water views. And, I love how incredibly dog-friendly it is but when looking for dog-friendly accommodations, it was a bit challenging. I like supporting independently owned businesses and most places I looked through were super dated and/or charge $600+ a night with a ridiculous $100+ pet fee per a night. Why am I paying $100+ for my dog to sleep on the floor? Hobos sleep for free on the floor! I came across The Vagabond's House on Yelp and instantly fell in love with all the pictures of this small English-style Bed & Breakfast (it looks just as beautiful in person). There's only 11 rooms and most of them have been recently renovated so each room has a unique mix of modern vintage charm. I stayed at Room #11 for two nights over the weekend. It was $379/night and totaled about $900 including the $30/day pet fee, $30 room guarantee, and tax. Two night minimum stay on the weekends. Considering the location, renovated rooms, amenities, and complimentary breakfast, I thought it was a good value. (+) Boutique B&B located within walking distance to all the restaurants, cafes, and shops in downtown Carmel. (+) I adored my room, it was well-appointed with a rustic chic décor: https://bit.ly/2R5fxyu. Great attention to deal with initialized pillow throws, blankets, and bathroom wall paper. (+) Comfy bed and pillows: https://bit.ly/2zAhzja. (+) Quiet AND Peaceful!!! I'm a very light sleeper so this was a huge plus. They have a "quiet time" that starts at 9 pm. (+) Awesome deep soaking tub (buy a bath bomb from LUSH several blocks away): https://bit.ly/2zA4nuS and a huge marble shower. AND, heated marble floors. (+) Microwave and a mini fridge in each room (some rooms have a kitchen): https://bit.ly/2DBToF8. (+) Complimentary breakfast in bed, sherry, fruit, and happy hour everyday (4 pm - 6 pm) in the lobby with wine, cheese, and crackers: https://bit.ly/2ImJ1Ue. --Breakfast was simple but excellent with ingredients from the local farmer's market: https://bit.ly/2IlexSx. Buttery, flaky croissants, sweet ripen fruits, and the soft-boiled eggs were perfection with a molten custard center. They even brought Tater Tot treats with the breakfast tray: https://bit.ly/2NLdrWs. --Make sure to check off your breakfast selections and give it to the innkeeper by 9 pm the night before: https://bit.ly/2DBWOaW. (+) Smart HDTV and complimentary access to Netflix: https://bit.ly/2xX1Fx8. Free WiFi. (+) Dog-friendly and they mean it! Tater Tot received a welcome note and his own blanket: https://bit.ly/2Ioh0fm and https://bit.ly/2xK3xtZ. And, I received a list of all the dog-friendly restaurants in the area: https://bit.ly/2N4vi5j. (+) Enchanting courtyard with a fire pit: https://bit.ly/2R4TQP1, lounge chairs, and soothing sounds of the waterfall: https://bit.ly/2NK0M5P. (+) Spa onsite but I totally forgot to book a massage. Next time! Not negatives but feedback/minor inconveniences: *Some staff is nicer than others. Quinn was great and even took the time to show us the grounds and walk us through Room #11. *Strict cancellation policy. You have to cancel within 172 hours (7 days) before your arrival time and there's a deposit of one night's charge. *No a/c but fans are provided. *No phone in rooms so if you need something (e.g. more toilet paper), you will have to go inside to the office and ask. *Weak shower pressure and the pump for the shampoo and conditioner kept getting clogged. *Private lot (free) has very, very tight spaces so if you're worried about getting scratches/dents from other drivers, look for street parking. 4th avenue has 24 hour parking (make sure to check the signs as most streets have 2 hour limits). *Bring your own shower cap, q-tips, and cotton balls. None are provided. I had a fantastic weekend getaway at The Vagabond's House and so did Tater Tot. When it was time to leave, he wouldn't leave the heated marble bathroom floor. It was just what I needed to decompress from work and city life. The Vagabond's House is the best place I've stayed at in the Carmel/Monterey area. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a quiet and romantic getaway. I can't wait to return next year! read more

The room was drafty and a bit cold. The room was clean and nicely decorated. The fountain was noisy and kept us from sleeping and woke us up. The breakfast was nice. The bed was not firm enough. I think the mattress needs to be replaced. It was expensive for what we got. The fireplace in the room was nice, but it didn't have a fan, so most of the heat went up the chimney. We liked the tub that had jets. I loved the crystal chandelle in the bathroom. We stayed in room 5. read more

This place is absolutely incredible and I can not possibly rate it high enough. I never knew I what I was missing in a B&B or Inn experience. Every detail has been thought about in each room. Heated bathroom floors, fireplaces, the most comfortable beds, heavy robes, breakfast is DELIVERED to your door every morning... and good breakfast! Soft-boiled eggs in egg cups, fruit, yogurt, fluffy croissants, bagels, and more. Oh yeah, and stick around between 4-6 for complimentary wine and cheese. The staff is absolutely incredible and super friendly. They each give you a walk through of your room to explain how to work the fireplaces, show you where the complimentary water and cream sherry is, give a little history of the book pages that wallpaper the bathrooms or the trinkets and decor that add all the personality to the room. (Carmel used to be an artist retreat where Dali, Hemingway, and many more have stayed and the whole place is decorated with snippets of their stories.) Then the bathtub! Oh the bathtub is super deep and comes with relaxing bath salts and soap to melt away the week. You can likely find cheaper rooms in the area, but none come with the experience that you have at Vagabond's. From the staff, to the conversations with other guests, to the central location to downtown and the beach, to the delicious breakfast in bed, to the complimentary night cap in each room, the value and experience cannot be beat. read more

Yes, this place is pretty special. Even in a place like Carmel-by-the-sea, this hotel stands out as a wonderful place to stay. Everything about it is charming, lovely, friendly, clean, open, well maintained and pleasantly fragrant. We absolutely had a great stay. They offer vegan options for breakfast as well as gluten-free. The room category we stayed in was super nice and quite affordable. They have several options with bigger rooms but the one we had was lovely. The only complaint we had was that our neighbor (on the second night) was playing the TV super loud. To the point were it was hard to hear our TV playing. The walls seem to be pretty thin. There are no phones in the room and no one to call (that we were aware of) if something goes wrong after 9pm. Luckily, our neighbor turned off the TV at about 10pm, just as I was getting dressed to go knock on their door (it was that loud). Otherwise, The Vagabond's House was one of the nicest places we've stayed at in Carmel. We'll stay here again for sure on our next trip. read more

This place exceeded my expectations. From the moment we checked it we felt right at home. We made it just in time for the complimentary wine and cheese night. To get to our room we pass a cute terrace with fIre pit and budding rose bushes and string lighTs. We are staying in room 6 and LOVE it! The bed is super comfy, all windows open to views of the oCean, trees, and rooftops of Carmel. The fireplace will get use every night. And the reading nook is picturesque. The complimentary breakfast was amazing- coffee, juices, soft boiled eggs, croissants, and fresh fruit. We love it here! read more

Cute, private, close to everything yet off the beaten path. Definitely would stay here again!

What a gem the Vagabond's House is. My partner and I stayed here for two nights to celebrate our anniversary, in room number two. It's hard to find just one thing to rave about. * The room itself was beautifully decorated, down to the walls of the bathroom, which were papered with pages from vintage 19th and 20th-century books and advertisements. The new gas fireplace and flat-screen TV were lovely touches as well. * The bed was probably the most comfortable I've ever slept in - seriously! I almost asked the front desk where they found such a comfortable mattress. * The bathroom itself was amazing, with heated marble floors, a huge freestanding bathtub, and an even bigger shower. * The grounds of the inn itself were gorgeous, too. The patio is lined with trees and flowers, with a water fountain, fire pit with tables and chairs, and string lights strung above the area that are absolutely adorable at night. * The inn itself is within a few seconds' walking distance of the downtown area, but even on a busy day, you wouldn't know that from the noise(or lack thereof) level, which only added to how relaxing the place was. * Breakfast(brought to the room) was delicious, with plenty of choices to select from. There was also a daily wine-and-cheese hour in the lobby for guests. More than anything, though, the service from the staff at the inn was incredible. When we hit more traffic than expected on our drive from San Francisco to Carmel, the inn staff called to make sure that we were okay. We were greeted warmly upon arrival, and everyone we interacted with was genuinely pleasant. There was even a bottle of champagne with a "Happy Anniversary" note waiting for us in the room on check-in. I'm sorry if it seems like I'm gushing, but the experience we had was just that good. It really does set the bar for how a "b&b" should be. My partner and I have already decided that, when we come back to Carmel, we'll be staying at the Vagabond's House again. read more

After our wedding in San Gregorio in early April we wanted to get away for several days instead of taking a big ocean-crossing honeymoon immediately. Very happy and very exhausted after a weekend plus of events, we wanted a place to truly relax (in driving distance) - and we could not have asked for a better place to do it. Upon arrival we were greeted by super friendly Thomas, who offered us a glass of wine, showed us to our room and arranged massages for us the next morning. Our room was gorgeous and the bed **very** comfortable. The breakfast (that is delivered to your room at your preference of time and which you essentially order the day prior) was delicious. And, if you're a coffee-lover/snob, they have an espresso/steamed milk machine that makes impressive drinks to your specifications. The grounds are gorgeous, and we spent much of our time lounging around the Inn, drinking coffee and enjoying the late afternoon wine and cheese hour. When we did venture out we were thrilled to be just blocks from the main street and a short walk from the beach. For restaurants and activities the helpful staff provided excellent recommendations. I really can't rave about this place enough. We were so well taken care of and it was a wonderful place for relaxation and rejuvenation. (It would also a great jumping off place if one has more energy for day trips/activities.) Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer! read more

This place was a dream! Booked a surprise trip for my boyfriend for his birthday and I'm so glad we came here. It's the cutest and cleanest little inn/ bed and breakfast. This was my first time staying at a hotel since covid (stayed in room 12, first floor) and the room and bathroom was spotless, super clean and we felt comfortable. Super modern too. The courtyard was awesome and nice to sit out and enjoy the fire in the evening, plus the free wine and cheese in the late afternoon. The morning breakfast was super good and came right on time. Also a good location to the downtown area, we walked to dinner and it took less than 10 minutes with pretty scenery on the way. Come here! read more

We stayed here a few years ago and had a great time in the premium room. . However, this time we decided to gamble on the least expensive room ( nr 12), which shares a wall with the kitchen for the Inn. The room was adequate but nothing fancy. Standard bathroom , wall heater , towels were not very thirsty.. Noise issues: Most of the rooms face a small courtyard . Quiet hours are 9PM to 8 AM. However., a large group of 10 or so with children were at the fire pit until 9PM.. The same folks gathered 7 30AM after pounding on the office door for coffee ( Office opens at 7:45) and yelling loudly to each other right outside our door. Our room also shared a wall with the kitchen inn. which was a bit noisy. Breakfast is enough to keep body and soul together. Grocery store bagels and croissants., Eggs , fruit etc. Our tray did not include the egg we ordered. The kitchen first said no eggs available for" a while" . They handed me some from the stove.. which were raw inside (!!) On my third trip to the kitchen I just got some raw eggs and microwaved them.. I think we'll try another place next time. On the plus.. the front desk tried very hard to please.,. gave us a bottle of champagne when they were unable to deliver on a promise to have our room ready an hour early., and brought a decaf setup directly to our room when I discovered the fancy coffee machine only had regular coffee. read more

So much for the ambiance- a quarter of the garden is taken up by major construction. Would have been nice to have had a fair heads up before coming clear across the country to stay here for a romantic getaway. Totally took the charm out of it. Looking out my window to construction and the workers is not exactly relaxing... Breakfast also not offered until 8:30 so if you're and early bird you will find yourself waiting or just going in to town to get it. It's your choice off a sheet of Special K cereal, grape nuts, or granola; a yogurt; tea or coffee; bagel English muffin or toast; and a few other things... If you're expecting a homemade breakfast of blueberry pancakes or fresh baked bread- not the place for that. Filling and overall good though. Pluses- it's clean, nice staff, and an easy walk to the center of town. Definitely get a room with a fireplace if you're going to stay here. The sherry in the room is a nice touch, along with a welcome bottle of champagne in the room. There is also a happy hour bottle of wine they open in the office area with some cheese if you want to chat with the staff for a bit. Again- they are very nice and really want to help. They did give us an upgrade which was much appreciated. They gave us some restaurant suggestions and were really welcoming. The office has some books on local things to do that you can check out to the room, as well. We're foodies and highly recommend Luca restaurant in town. Fresh delicious more modern Italian with quality ingredients. Summary-If we knew there was the construction we would have stayed elsewhere and feel a bit blindsided that we were not informed. Without the construction I would recommend. read more

Great room and location. This would be a five star rating, however customer service and employees make a memorable first impression. After less than 24 hours of a three day stay, I will never stay at this place again. Gianne or Jianne was extremely obtuse and disrespectful. I let her know that I would like the room to be cleaned. She told me,"you need to leave the sign on the door." I asked her if she could just notify housekeeping since I would have to leave my family and walk over a mile. Her cold reply, "it's policy. I can't go into your room." I told her I wasn't asking her to go to my room but rather just notify Housekeeping. She refused. I had to walk all the way back and leave my family at a restaurant. I will never stay here again. It's unfortunate because Randall was such a gentlemen over the phone when I booked the reservation. He was accommodating when we arrived late. He was an exemplary employee in all my interactions. When I asked for the email of the general manager she told me they didn't have one and to just the generic hotel email. I find that unusual. Regardless, when you pay $500 a night, you'd think they would call housekeeping. read more
