 Stargazer Hotel

Stargazer Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I was hesitant to stay at the Stargazer because I usually stay at Hyatt or Marriott. For a motel it was wonderful. We had everything we needed with the charm of a time period motel. The kids really enjoyed the indoor pool. We had a room on the 2nd floor. It had a partial ocean view! The staff was kind. We also had a handicap room on the lower level. That room had everything it needed, but it was dim. It was nice to have additional parking towards the back of the property. I'd stay there again. It was about 12 min from Carmel, 7 min to Cannery Row and 5 min to the Wharf."

Sand Castle Inn

10/10 Excellent
"The young man got me through check-in quickly, he was very polite! We got our rooms 1 hour early. The rooms were clean made up nicely. Even though I didn't use house keeping they were friendly & polite. The one thing that was disturbing is the flushing of toilets & the water running loudly. We have no other complaints. Thank you for the enjoyable stay!"
