The most enjoyable stay we ever had !!!

How can I put it - I'm actually missing the words of how impressive our 8-day stay was. We felt so save, there was nothing missing. The cozy furnished room exudes a cosiness, in which you are very happy to return. We love Carmel. We love the tranquility and the peaceful environment, the near beach, the small cozy restaurants that are just a few blocks away and always the opportunity to make discoveries in the surrounding area. Just one day we left Carmel to drive to San Francisco, then we wanted to be back in our small, cozy home in Carmel as soon as possible. Barry, our host, has really done everything to make sure we're fine. He was even available for us when we arrived late from LA airport after a long flight from Frankfurt/Germany. The wine that was waiting for us was wonderful and gave us immediately a warm touch. The kitchen has everything you need and Barry has chosen a great decor. Refrigerator, stove, microwave, all the best, including washer and dryer. In the bathroom soft white towels were waiting and Barry even thought to provide bathrobes. I can only repeat myself, it was missing at NOTHING. A wonderful holiday home away from home. I have never left a vacation home so sadly, but unfortunately you always have to first leave to be able to come back! Barry, thank you for your attention and for your warm welcome that you provided. We will be back, for sure. Hug to Jacob and Adam !!!

This cozy cottage was a dream. A place where we were able to relax and enjoy the ocean air. Barry’s hospitality is expert level. We appreciated the many thoughtful touches, the well equipped kitchen, the beautiful decor and linens. We’ve visited Carmel dozens of times and this place ranks among the top few.

Barry is the finest host we have ever had at VRBO, or any other rental platform. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome - wine & cheese board upon our arrival, homemade cookies with ice cream, and a couple of unobtrusive check ins during our stay to make sure everything was running smoothly.Barefoot Comfort is equally outstanding. It is impeccably designed and furnished, with top of the line linens, bath towels, and furnishings. On site laundry was a plus. The location is fabulous! We walked to dinner, the galleries and shopping.We are excited about our next stay.

Beautiful cottage in a secret garden

If we could give 1000 stars in all categories, we would! Cozy, quaint, clean, magical. This cottage was the perfect place for two and came with all the amenities! My husband and I spent a week here for our 10th anniversary. Conveniently located to surrounding towns and trails, we were able to revisit so many places from my childhood, an easy drive to everything! Don’t feel like driving? We were in walking distance to cute shops, restaurants and the beach!! Barry is a wonderful host, easily accessible for questions. Aside from the amazing serene garden landscape with calming water fountains, we were welcomed with a delicious board of crackers, cheese, jam and wine waiting for us! What a nice treat after traveling across country. Barry makes sure to give the finest touches. We will definitely be staying here again if we visit, and will recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Wonderful little cottage

We are so glad that we rented this property. We could walk to all of the shops and restaurants, yet we were on a quiet residential street. The cottage itself is lovely, from the decor, original details, and the surrounding gardens. Barry was the perfect host who made us feel welcome and at home before, during, and after our stay.

Perfect Little Spot

Barry the host was awesome. Had a little charcuterie board and wine waiting in the cottage when we arrived and some tips on things in and around Carmel. Easy to get a hold of him. Great little one room, one bath spot with a kitchen and a laundry room below. Just about 2 blocks to walk into the retail section of Carmel and its cool little shops and restaurants. We went whale watching, beach combing, bike riding, kayaking, hiking in Big Sur, hiking in Pinnacles, did a spa afternoon, and plenty more all within an hour and a half or less of a drive, most being within about 20 minutes. Would definitely recommend going, it was great!

The Starfish cottage is perfect. It is a charming and fully equipped space with everything you need. Sweet touches abound with beautiful lighting, deluxe bed and bedding, garden space, full kitchen and a quiet in town location under the pines. Just a short walk to everything Carmel. The host is attentive and gracious. GREAT CARMEL EXPERIENCE

Amazing Trip!

My wife and I came stayed in this VRBO for our planned elopement in the Big Sur. When we booked the stay, Barry called us to introduce himself, to learn about us, and the reason for our stay. Barry did a great job communicating with us about the place and even made an adjustment on the length of our stay seamless. Barry knew we were coming for our wedding and wrote us a handwritten card and gave us a cheese and cracker plate with a bottle of wine. It was very thoughtful! He had a few other really nice things he did but I don't want to ruin the surprise for anyone staying here. Just know that Barry really cares about the people that stay at the cottage. We plan on returning in the future to revisit our ceremony location and won't stay anywhere else!

Where do I start..

The only aspect better than our charming cottage, amazingly comfortable bed and linens, perfect location (easy walk to everything in town and to gorgeous beach), sensational location to route 1 drive and Big Sur, as well as to Monterey for aquarium, 17 mile drive, etc., was the absolutely supreme host, Barry, with whom we felt an instant kinship. He knows all of the best hideaways as well as the "musts" for first-time visitors, and i know it will get even better as we continue to visit bc once isn't even close to enough! We have already signed up to stay again next year. We are two western New York special education teachers who really are not annually able to take such a vacation, but Barry's place is reasonable for what you get in return and very worth the sacrifice and savings in the interim. We couldn't be more impressed! And more eager to return!!

Cute, comfy and well-located

We spent 8 lovely nights in Barry's Guest House on an extended vacation. He was SUCH a wonderful host! Proactive in sharing information and very responsive when we had any questions. We had been to Las Vegas and Disneyland prior to arrival in Carmel. What a pleasant change! The cottage had everything we could possibly need. From the beyond comfortable bedding to the luxurious shower, everything was awesome. Several times later in the trip, we lamented how much we missed the always ready hot water and great water pressure in the cottage shower. We watched TV comfortably most night. Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV were all available with our subscriptions. And it was so nice having access to convenient laundry facilities downstairs from the cottage. Thanks, Barry!

Romantic Escape to Carmel

We were on our 40th Anniversary trip and stayed at this dreamy little place. It is so quaint. Very clean and comfortable. Small but doesn’t feel small because every detail is perfect. From the start, our host, staged a romantic atmosphere. The lights turned down low and music on the tv as we entered along with a nice note and treat on the table welcoming us. It was a lovely surprise and set the tone for our trip. Barry is an excellent host. He was a wealth of knowledge of things to do and see, not just tourist spots but unique places. He had little surprises throughout our stay that were so thoughtful but not intrusive. You will love this place!! We will definitely return.

Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway

We stayed for a week in this little studio/cottage just steps from the hustle and bustle of downtown Carmel, with a location so quiet and secluded it felt like everyone was miles away. We have stayed in many rentals and Barry's communication was by far the best of any of the hosts we have worked with. The info provided prior to arrival was perfect, and his response time to any questions we had was superb. He is clearly committed to every guest having a wonderful experience. The cottage is exactly as pictured/described. The bed was very comfy and the linens were wonderful. The provided toiletries were a pleasant surprise - liquid soap for the bathroom sink plus shower gel and shampoo in the shower - and unlike most hotels they did not have a strong scent, which we really appreciated. The location is perfect for walking to restaurants & shops. If you are not familiar with Carmel you should be aware that the beach is a fairly steep walk uphill to return to the cottage. But there is public parking and street parking if the walk is too much for you. If we find ourselves back in Carmel in the future I would only rent from Barry.

Enchanting Honeymoon

The only reason NOT to stay here is if it’s already booked. We utilize VRBO for all of our travels and have had a lot of good hosts along the way. Barry is by far above them all. Communication began at booking. He was flexible with our dates, he kept in touch periodically up to our stay, and checked in a few times while we were there to see if we needed anything, He thought of every detail. The cottage was very clean, perfectly located, and stocked with everything you might need. The cottage is located within easy walking distance of everything in the Plaza, Carmel Beach, the scenic houses along the beach; Point Lobos is only a couple miles away, Mission Ranch a five minute drive, Big Sur a gorgeous 30 mile drive south along the coast of Hwy 1, and Monterey about 15 minutes north. Carmel is a beautiful fairytale place that speaks for itself but Barry and the cottage make you feel like a local with a home away from home.

A Delightful Stay

My husband and I stayed in this cottage and it was serene and comfortable from the moment we walked in the door. The host, Barry, had prepared everything immaculately and was always available if we had any questions or needed anything. The location is perfect, walking distance to plenty of restaurants, shops, and the beach. All the amenities are as described, and then some. We would absolutely stay here again, and would recommend it to anyone.

Über den Gastgeber

Zu Gast bei Barry, Owner at Carmel Retreats

I've been coming to Carmel for 15 years and find something new to explore each time. Originally from the midwest, I left the harsh winters behind and moved to California to pursue a career in product design. Carmel is my refuge from the buzz of daily life and I hope it will be yours, too. I've been renovating and renting fully furnished homes for almost 20 years and this original style beach cottage in downtown Carmel is my favorite by far.

Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft

I had been looking for a home in Carmel for years, and I bought this one the day it came on the market. It's one of the original and authentic homes of historic Carmel, made entirely of old growth redwood - you just can't find homes like this one anymore. Plus, the double sized lot with some of the oldest oak trees in Carmel make this property serene and calming. The previous owners were a charming couple in their early 90's who got married when they were twenty and lived in this house throughout their lives, bringing their children and hosting their grand kids for decades. Inside one of the cabinets in the laundry room you can still find an original fruit drying rack which I left intact for the sake of history. That rack is what inspired some of the farmhouse touches I used throughout the renovation such as the barn style light fixtures, vintage Edison filament bulbs, and antique rim latch hardware on the doors.

Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig

This studio is surrounded by large windows on three out of four sides filling the room with incredible sunlight and fresh ocean breezes. There are blackout shades on the windows if you'd like to sleep in, though. The large king bed has high thread count Egyptian cotton sheets with a Belgian linen duvet cover and pillow shams. You'll feel like you're tucked away in your own private and quiet retreat during your stay, but you'll be just steps away from everything that this magical town has to offer.
