A little pricy but worth the experience. The décor is interesting- old, a little spooking, but romantic! Ever changing menu and yummy inventive cocktails. Dress up and go!

Great place to sit outside and get some grub in Carmel. I love the three beet salad there. I wouldn't call myself a beet person, but this place can change a girl.

Sightseeing

I usually only go here with visitors, but its a fun little stop. The Warf has a ton of restaurants. Each serves their own recipe of clam chowder. Walk down the Warf and try a free sample of each one!

Love to take people kayaking here. Rent a kayak at the mouth of the Slough right off of highway 1 then feel those muscles burn as you get up close and personal with seals, otters, and pelicans.

Great relaxation spot. Hot and cold pools, saunas, hammocks, and fire pits. You can get a massage if you like, or you can do the relaxation cycle in the pools. Its a quiet zone, no kiddies here.

My favorite thing to do in Carmel is to go to the information center, by the wine passport for $60, then do the wine walk. If you love wine you will love this walk! But start at the Cheese Shop!

Thousands of cheeses! Go in, talk to the show workers (they seriously know their cheeses), and try as much as you want. Buy a few slices to take with you on the wine walk.
