Carmel-by-the-Sea is a town famous for its fairytale streets, so perfect that they could almost be illustrations in a storybook. This home fits right in, thanks to its whimsical style combined with a sense of true luxury. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted with complimentary cheese and wine or sparkling cider to help your holiday get off to a magical start. And there are plenty more special touches where that came from – the host provides two free wine tasting passes, along with robes and spa-standard toiletries in the bathrooms to help you feel truly relaxed. The beach is just three blocks walk away, and the house is prepared with everything you need for a day by the ocean, including chairs, blankets, towels, an umbrella and a cooler. Back at home, you can stretch out on the green chaise lounge by the fire, sink into the jetted tub or serve a delicious dinner out on the patio, lit by the outdoor chandelier. With plenty of vintage charm and a fabulous location, this home is a wonderful escape on the Californian coast.
