My wife and I just got back from 3 nights at the Tradewinds. I first must say that Carmel does not have very many high end lodging options in town. Many of the motels are older and are pretty standard looking motels with not a lot of quality built into them. Very few have gone under a major re-furbish. The Tradewinds is an exception. They have done ...
I had the recent pleasure of spending three nights at the Tradewinds. My room had a view of the water. It was heavenly. The fireplace and open door made for wonderful sleeping. I can not wait to return.Breakfast always included meeting new people who were all interesting and from all over the world!
I loved the decor: Asian inspired, gas-lit fireplace, bedside rock fountain, blooming orchids and luxurious linens. Customer service was the best I've ever experienced, we felt like we were the only ones there. Prime location is ideal for those interested in exploring downtown Carmel. We never had to drive anywhere. Will go back in a heartbeat.

romance and service

The ocean views and the service were perfect. We spent a week here and had a great wedding on the beach. The staff and tranquility were exactly what we were looking for.
Newly renovated with great taste and sophistication. Was recommended by friends ....so we were a little worried but it exceeded our expectations. We had such a great time and the staff was superb.
Located just 3 blocks from the main street in carmel, this zen-like hotel was very relaxing. a very nice sized room with gass fireplace and balcony. at night there is a common fire pit where we sipped wine next to for hours. morning breakfast was also very nice..fresh fruit and good breads.

Peaceful and Dog Friendly
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/17/05
We went to Carmel without reservations because we only wanted to stay one night (most hotels reqire 2 or 3 nights on the weekends). The Tradewinds was the only hotel that still had a dog friendly room available and they were fabuolous! Cookies at check in, spectacular rooms with slate tile, a soaking bath tub and separate glass shower; the ...
This place is absolutely fabulous! Our stay was perfect in EVERY detail. Our Asian-style room was beautiful, and we had an incredible view of Point Lobos and the ocean. The courtyard fountains, waterfall, and stream help create a lush oasis just a few minutes walk from the heart of Carmel. I would definitely recommend this inn to all my friends and family.
