The Robins nest is the most cozy cottage tucked away in carmel by the sea. Close enough to shops but far enough not to hear the car and foot traffic noise. We had a great rime away from home. Thank you so much!

Best Get-away ever.

The cottage is lovely and the outdoor seating is beautiful. Great location, and we had a wonderful walk around a neighborhood we had never before explored. The entire experience was A. The television is easy to figure out and the living room has comfortable chairs and a great sofa. It was great to have a firewood in the fireplace for the chilly evening. Very close to Point Lobos which we highly recommend.

Great little cottage in a sweet little neighboorhood

Unfortunately, my party wasn't up for the 20 minute walk into town so it didn't really serve my ideal of being close ish to everything but it still was lovely. The back deck was perfect for impromptu dance party for the 4 of us (hahahah) and card games.

Carmel Family Rendezvous

My wife and I met our two adult sons in Carmel at The Cypress Cottage. Everything exactly as listed. Owner communication was quick and very kind/helpful. It is very quiet. Everything was perfect, a great launching point for all area attractions and a space to simply rest and enjoy company inside or the back deck area. Indoors, just open a couple of doors and windows for fresh air circulation throughout the cottage. Walking distance 0.8 to 1 mile to city area. Ubers are plentiful. Can park rental car downtown if you do not mind waiting on a space. Carmel Farmers Market on Thursday. Try the local fruit and veggies - strawberries and Mission Figs, a must try. Over 4 days, we visited 3 beaches, Bayonet Golf Course in Seaside, state parks, 17 mile drive, Pebble Beach Resort, and two trips to Big Sur for evening drives and dining. We spent time shopping in Carmel. If you like to stay in for meals, the gas grill works great. All you need for cooking is supplied, including an entire spice cabinet. K-cups provided to get started with Keurig. Safeway grocery store is just 5 to 7 minutes away. The back deck/yard was our favorite spot for breakfast, afternoon rest, and evening wind down - chairs, couch, coffee table, and dining table. It is totally fenced for pets, even a pet waste bag dispenser. There is a swing for children. The bedrooms were perfect for our group, sharing the main bath for showers and using the 1/2 bath worked fine. Highly recommend. Book now!

Perfect for our family

Cypress Cottage was the best pet friendly property we have stayed at. Our little dog loved sunbathing on the deck and our 9 month old got his best sleep to date in the pack n play set up in the guest room. The property was not booked the night before our trip so the host reached out and let us know we could check in a couple of hours early which was huge with a baby who naps in the afternoon. Thank you for the best experience!

Such a cute home for the three of us. We were in town for one my daughter’s BFF’s wedding weekend. Location was close to venue and everything. Perfect home, lots of privacy from neighbors.

Beautiful Carmel house

We had a fabulous getaway at the Cypress Cottage. It was adorable, well stocked with everything we needed, fit our family of 4 perfectly and was in a great location. It was also extremely clean and easy to communicate with property managers. I would definitely love to stay at the Cypress Cottage again.
