We spent two nights in room 12. From one of our windows we could see the ocean. The room was very quaintly appointed and much larger than we expected. A no charge breakfast was served each morning by a delightful innkeeper. The location is very close to the ocean. Downtown is about a twenty minute walk but we found parking... More

Lovely guest lounge, open fire, well-furnished and decorated, warm, well-lit and welcoming. Breakfast also taken in this and a small adjacent area. Breakfast included in cost: granola, fresh fruit including strawberries and quiche or french toast. But small room, no heater. on ground floor with 'view' of a fence! Nice touch of robes but somehow it just needed 'modernizing' -... More

This is my third visit to this place and I absolutely love it! We were upgraded to a room with a fireplace, at no extra charge. May is the best time to come...not very busy at all. Wonderful service with the breakfast and the room! Hope to have a fourth visit in the future!!

The Sandpiper is definitely my choice for a hotel in Carmel. You can hear and/or see the ocean from many of the rooms and a trip to the beach is 2 short blocks. It is about a mile from Ocean Ave and the main crowds so shopping and restaurants are close but not too close (I don't like crowds on... More

Just a block from the beach - my room even had a view across rooftops to the water - the sound of the waves made a sweet surf lullaby. Each room has a distinct shabby chic decor. Breakfast and afternoon tea were delicious. The one downside is that property is a bit away from the center of town - with... More

A sweet, comfortable, elegant, and friendly Inn. The staff was friendly, and very accommodating. The rooms were decorated lovely and the Linens were soft. Food was excellent. The view was great, and parking was easy. All around delightful place to stay.

The room we stayed in (room 1) was a gorgeous, spacious place to unwind and enjoy the spirit of Carmel. The location is closer to the water than I thought and the grounds were very well kept. Like a good bed and breakfast, the service and experience we received was comfortable and free.

The Sandpiper was a wonderful spot to stay, very close to the beach and an easy walk (although a bit dark at night in Carmel) to the main street. Wonderful breakfast, great atmosphere and service. Overall wonderful experience. Ask for a room facing the water as you can hear the surf.

Sandpiper is a lovely inn at Carmel. Great location to the beach/ocean, & very close to the village. It is newly renovated. The staff was great. I highly recommend it.
