Carmel is a quiet town in California full of art, delicious food, and a laid-back beach vibe. It’s a small town, but is rich with history and culture, which makes it an exciting place to spend your vacation. However, in order to have the full Carmel experience, you need to dip your toe into a luxury pool. And what better way to do that than to stay at The Vagabond’s House? My weekend in Carmel can easily be described in three words: relaxing, luxurious, and rejuvenating … and a lot of that is thanks to The Vagabond’s House.

Spend every moment feeling restored

From the second I set foot in The Vagabond’s House, I was in love. The lobby featured a cozy fireplace, a bookshelf full of vintage toys, and the kind of decor that makes you feel warm and comfortable right from the start. From there the concierge showed me to my room, and the room was spectacular. Tucked on the top floor overlooking the lush trees and pristine courtyard, featuring heated bathroom floors, free Netflix, complimentary fruit and sherry … it was the definition of luxury. But the room was only the start. The service was out of this world. The staff gave incredible 5-star service throughout my stay, taking initiative to assist me with various things from the moment I arrived. More importantly, every time I needed something, the staff were there to offer incredible recommendations and help me in any way needed. When you stay at The Vagabond’s House, you can expect to feel completely spoiled and taken care of.

Stay within walking distance of the beach

When you are staying at The Vagabond’s House it will be hard to leave, but you are going to want to because the location is spectacular. The inn is only a few blocks from the main street in Carmel where you will find all of the good shopping and dining options, including the delicious Dametra Cafe, and it is just a few more blocks from the shore. The beach is one of the main reasons people come to Carmel, and for good reason. The white shore and sapphire water is breath-taking and it is all only a few minutes walk from The Vagabond’s House.

Meet the other guests over happy hour

One of my favorite things about staying at The Vagabond’s House was the happy hour. From 4 pm to 6 pm every day the staff served complimentary wine and fine cheeses. The wine and cheeses are delicious, but the real treat is the chance to socialize with the other guests over the stunning metal fire-pit (a fire-pit where the actual logs are sculpted out of metal). During my stay, the other guests were incredibly friendly and we shared wonderful conversations over wine and cheese. I can only assume that this is the norm due to the warm and welcoming environment The Vagabond’s House creates.

Enjoy mouth-watering breakfast in bed

To top it all off, every morning at The Vagabond’s House begins with complimentary breakfast-in-bed. You pick your time as well as which menu items you want and that’s it. The next morning someone will knock on your door with a full tray of mouth-watering goodies. The breakfast really was the cherry on top of a truly spectacular stay.

The Vagabond's House will leave you feeling completely rejuvenated

There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Staying at The Vagabond’s House is a magical experience. This pet-friendly inn also offers spa services, free wireless internet, in-room refrigerators and small kitchens, and more. The rooms run from 195 USD to 375 USD and are ideal for couples or individuals visiting Carmel. The Vagabond’s House is very easy to get to as it is only a few blocks from downtown Carmel and there is free parking available on site. All in all, a trip to Carmel wouldn’t be complete without a stay at The Vagabond’s House.
