Big Sur Lodge-Style House in Carmel with PANORAMIC Ocean, Bay & Valley VIEWS!

Beautifully remodeled contemporary Big Sur Lodge -Style House in Carmel with amazing UNOBSTRUCTED 180-degree views of Carmel Valley, Carmel Bay including Monastery and Carmel River Beaches, Point Lobos and the Pacific Ocean. PRIVACY! These views overlook a canopy of trees with virtually no direct view of other houses and no power lines! This warm and comfortable home is 2,200 sf with 3 large bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms - two are Primary-Suites! It has EVERYTHING for a vacation or retreat.

Floor-to-ceiling Picture Windows frame spectacular views from the Living Room. All 3 bedrooms have glass sliding doors with access to the wrap around deck on the main floor. The Master Suite has sweeping views of the valley, Point Lobos and ocean from the queen-sized bed, and even the bathroom has a picture window with views from the shower & toilet! Sleep under the Redwoods in the spacious 425 sf Cabin Suite. It has an en-suite with it's own bar sink, microwave and bathroom. The kitchen table can be changed for a sleeper-futon on request for a 3rd adult to share the space. It has access to it's own outdoor space or the 'mid-deck' with a table and 2 chairs. The 3rd guest bedroom 'Deep Blue' is adjacent to the main bathroom and has a queen bed, desk, 2 chairs, full-sized washer and dryer and sliding doors to the deck with Green Belt views. Each room has its own original character while still blending with the Big Sur style Lodge.

The front door enters into the upper Office/Den Loft with full Office Desk, copier/printer and shredder, a 2nd writing desk and large coffee table perfect for puzzles and games. It has a queen-sleeper couch. Well behaved dogs are welcome and there is a generous fenced in dog-run. This newly renovated home is a dedicated Vacation Rental. It is fresh, clean and uncluttered with an updated Big Sur lodge influence.

Crestview is right off Hwy 1 and an easy 1 mile from the quintessential Village of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Crestview is perfect for a Vacation or remote Work/ Study Retreat, and affords the space, comfort and privacy for family or friendship reunions. This property is New to VRBO in 2021!

All photos are original from the actual property or local surrounding area. No Stock Photos! A 10% discount will be applied for stays of 30-days or more as Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) is no longer required. Just outside the Carmel-by-the-Sea city limits in the Unincorporated Monterey County Coastal Zone, this property will be subject to new STR Permit regulations enforceable 12/24/2025. After some more renovations, in 2026 the entire house will be rented out in it's entirety (including VRBO.com/2128067). We look forward to your stay with us!

This property is best suited for adults as all doors open to the outside wrap around deck. This Oasis is calm and peaceful and the decks are not suited for loud and energetic families that need an open space to run around. Well behaved children that are mature and can be respectful of the property and other guests are welcome with acknowledgement of house rules by guest when booking.

Come enjoy this extraordinary property with beautiful and comfortable living spaces and breathtaking views. Make this your home away from home!

Incredible views and hospitality

Check in was a smooth process with the host giving a quick guided tour of the property. Stunning views from the front bed room and wrap around patio. Grill on property was a bonus, plus the well stocked kitchen made our stay-in meals a breeze. Easy checkout process as well. Would stay here again in the future!

Loved the beautiful home with a view to die for! Went with our family of 5 (4 adults and a teen) and our dog. Home is well suited for our sized group and very dog friendly. Very comfortable and Callie was awesome checking us in and checking up on us. Loved the hospitality and would highly recommend!

Carmel is gorgeous, but it's hard to leave the house itself, it's so cozy and overlooks everything. Callie's a warm host, has lots of recommendations for things to do. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Carmel is a wonderful spot, and this home is just on the eastern edge of town. A lot of light, and a spectacular view of the valley and the sea to the west. Home was clean, quiet and well equipped. Really appreciate the gracious hospitality and great communication.

Carmel Beauty

Our family gathered here from Southern and Northern California for Christmas. The house was perfect for us with plenty of room, comfort and privacy for everyone. The crowning glory of the house is its spectacular views of Carmel, its coast, hills and sunsets. The hosts are gracious and extremely helpful. It was a perfect spot for our holiday.

Fantastic! Wish we could have stayed longer

Lux comfort! Our host, Callie, was FANTASTIC! Great communication prior, a warm and informative welcome to the property, and quick response when we needed local info. The house and views are stunning. The vibe is relaxed but the property is super clean and well appointed with the quality of everything from wine glasses and cutlery to linens as good or better than home. We appreciated kind touches like good quality basic bath products being provided, too. This feels like a place that the owners love and enjoy themselves rather than a turnkey “just the basics” place — they are very considerate of the guest experience. I can absolutely recommend this place and would love to return!

Beautiful Property - Wonderful Host

This property is amazing! Even better than pictured and in a great location. I stayed with my friend, daughter and son-in-law and we all had lots of space to work/play. The bed I slept in was heavenly. Everything was clean and labeled well. We had everything we needed, and then some. Callie was so friendly and helpful—a great host. She gave us a bottle of wine, a new wine opener for the home and instructions on a special hike. I would love to stay here again.
