My wife and I just returned from a long weekend at Bernardus Lodge in Carmel Valley, about ten miles inland from Highway 1 in Carmel. This was our third time staying there, and it just keeps getting better. Our first visit was years ago, following chef Cal Stamenov from Pacific's Edge at Carmel Highlands Inn. We have never looked back.... More

My wife and I stayed during the last week in May. The lodge is an old property and changed hands in the mid 90's. It is well kept but could use newer furnishings and linens...we stayed in #52, a large room. There was fresh fruit in the room upon our arrival, never replaced once eaten. There was a complimentary bottle... More

Lovely retreat in Carmel valley. Fabulous fresh food at Wickets where you can eat outside and enjoy the pleasing views. Marinus, the upscale restaurant, has exquisite food, though the wine list is a bit pricey. More

Upon arrival, there was no rush. We leisurely ate a delicious dinner at Wickets then was escorted to our spacious room. Comfortable beds, fresh water and snacks, including wine were included with the room. I had a 90 minute massage at the spa, which was wonderful, but pricey. Wound highly recommend. More

We recently visited Bernardus for a few days as part of a corporate retreat. We took our 7 year old twins and their grandparents with us. The first thing I noticed about Bernardus was that it's beautifully landscaped and designed. The landscape is mature and lush and the building's architecture are perfect in the rural setting. Our greeting upon entering... More

We were prepared to be wow'd by all the great reviews, but this place still exceeded our expectations. It's the perfect mix of not too large, not too small, and absolutely perfect for an anniversary trip without the kids. The highlight of the stay was going to a 3 hour dinner at Marinarus restaurant, and I would recommend it to... More

I took my husband to this property for his birthday. It was a flawless visit. The staff was excellent, the amenities bountiful, and the food superb. Our room overlooked the pool, but was quiet and peaceful. We sat on the balcony and read, ate the delicious cheese and snacks provided, drank the delicious wine. I highly recommend this for a...

We spent a sunday night at Bernardus. It was a bit pricey but a nice night spent. Nice accommodations and a relaxing spa. We went to the casual restaurant, Wickets, and requested the three course tasting menu that they have on Sundays - what a good deal! Three delicious courses for $25 but looks like you have to ask for... More
