Horizon Inn & Ocean View Lodge

This was the perfect place to stay during our vacation to Carmel. The staff was friendly and responsive. We loved receiving the basket of breakfast each morning. It was just enough to keep us full until lunch. Although we had a car, we walked everywhere during our stay, even down to the beach. The hotel is up a hill, so be prepared for that. I enjoyed getting the burst of exercise after all the great eating we did. We'd definitely stay here again.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed three nights last week at the Horizon Inn. This is a boutique hotel with many nice touches that make it rise above the norm:|- Continental "Breakfast baskets" each morning at your doorstep. |- Fireplace in the room. Great for cool mornings and evening atmosphere. |- Great service at front desk.|- Wine, cheese, crackers and grapes every evening.|- Lovely gathering place with firepit, spa, and sitting areas. |- Very quiet location but still a walk to the shops and restaurants (one in particular you should try is Lafa ... just two blocks away). ||Would absolutely stay here again.

We came here for a girls weekend and had a great time! Friendly staff and a fantastic happy hour with cheese and local wine (included with the stay). The hot tub and fire pits were a lovely addition - make sure you leave time to soak and sit near the fire! Our room had an ocean view, and for the price, you can’t beat it. The continental picnic basket breakfast is a really nice touch. Much better amenities than similarly priced hotels in Carmel. Will stay again!

I never leave reviews but this gem was worth reviewing. The staff is kind and friendly, the grounds are adorable and the rooms are clean and cozy. Beautiful patio was spa, fire pit and fire place. Delicious happy hour with local wines and cheeses, fruit, crackers. A filling continental breakfast delivered to your door in a picnic basket. Affordable rates. We will definitely be back again, we had a wonderful time!

Horizon Inn was a great place to stay for our weekend in Carmel! We came to town for a wedding (Carmel Mission Basilica + La Playa Hotel) and were so excited to be nearby all the events at the Horizon Inn. The Horizon Inn is located within walking distance of restaurants / cafes / bars. Our room was clean and the service was impeccable. We had to wake up early one morning for wedding events before the usual breakfast delivery, so the Horizon team brought us a basket of food the night before to snack on. Will definitely be coming back to stay!

My husband and I spent 4 lovely days at the Horizon Inn and Oceanview Lodge. Our Lodge room was clean, spacious enough with adequate closet and drawer space; and we enjoyed the fireplace and the special touches of microwave oven, small refrigerator, Keurig coffee maker and counter space. A lovely feature was the balcony with an ocean view. And especially delightful was the delivery each morning of a picnic basket filled with Continental breakfast goodies!|The shops and restaurants of Carmel are just down the hill by way of a shortLodge.|And the outdoor portion of the Lodge is so nice with a firepit and a jacuzzi on a lovely patio.|We will definitely be returning to this welcoming, comfortable lodge.

We recently returned home from a super fun family getaway to Carmel-by-the-sea. Because our dogs love Carmel as much as we do, we needed accommodations that would include them. The Horizon Inn exceeded our expectations. The dog friendly cottages are roomy and comfortable, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The short trek to Ocean Avenue and shops and restaurants was do-able for us, so we parked our cars and explored on foot. We will definitely be returning to the Horizon Inn!

We loved our stay at the Horizon Inn & Ocean View Lodge. Our room was super clean and service was top notch. We enjoyed the balcony view, filtered water/ice dispenser and we looked forward to the delivery of our breakfast each morning. The Happy Hour was a welcomed treat after a long day sightseeing.
