Beautiful Gardens!

David's place was the perfect spot for our girl's weekend! We loved how close the location was to both downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea and the beach as well as the wineries in Carmel Valley. The gardens in the backyard are BEAUTIFUL and the most peaceful retreat for a quiet morning coffee. We loved our stay!

Excellent!

This is one of the best rentals ever. The house was immaculate, large and well-stocked kitchen, comfortable bed, fully stocked bathrooms, and the most gorgeous garden! It is also well located in a quiet neighborhood, quite close to local food shopping, small local restaurants and fitness gym. Add to that the hosts promptly respond and add a personal list of to-dos to enhance the stay in the area.

Our family had a wonderful time in Carmel at this lovely home. It was a great location for visiting the Carmel Mission, driving 17 mile drive, exploring Big Sur, and seeing the Monterey Aquarium. We are picky about cleanliness and comfort, and this home exceeded our expectations. Treat yourself and stay here at this gracious host’s home!

A Big Sur marathon weekend

A beautiful home in a fantastic location. What an amazing garden! Thanks so much to the Vivolo's, the exceptional owners! The Vivolo's kept us extremely well-informed in the time before our stay. They made excellent suggestions of things to do and see. They made sure the property was in excellent condition. Their advice on how to work the systems in the house gave us a lot of confidence. Their very special welcome gifts of drinks and snacks made us feel right at home. We highly recommend a stay here!

FANTASTIC

Our daughter got married and we wanted a home where she could get ready along with her 3 bridesmaids, flower girl, Mother of the Groom and Mother of the Bride. David and Debbie’s home is so lovely and unbeknownst to us the gorgeous flowers in the garden was a terrific backdrop to take photos for the rehearsal dinner as well as the day of the wedding. Thank you Vivolo family, we’d so love to return another time. Your beautiful home will have a special memory for us. Thank you.

Perfect home away from home

My family and I had a great time staying at David and Debbie’s home. The home was very cozy and clean and a perfect size for my family. My favorite part of staying in their home was the garden and peacefulness you get in the neighborhood. My cousin fell in love with their bed and has been none stop talking about it. Highly recommend this home and it’s located near shopping centers and PCH which is very convenient. Thank you for our stay and hope to be back soon!!!

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a quick and busy weekend and the close proximity to most places was so convenient. The house was clean and those beds were so comfortable with an abundance of pillows. There was a lovely welcome package of treats and snacks which were very much appreciated. Perhaps the greatest of all was the backyard! That garden, bunnies, hummingbirds, birds, etc. they had tables with ample chairs and a propane heater. Highly recommend!
