This property is perfectly positioned near every hotspot in Carmel. You’re just a few blocks from the beach and steps away from downtown shopping. It’s a wonderful place to relax outside with a glass of wine while watching your dog play. The rooms are spotless, and the staff is incredibly warm and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again!

We loved our stay! We had a great view of the ocean and sunsets. Our room felt cozy and we slept great! The Green Lantern Inn is perfectly located near downtown with everything within walking distance. As for parking, we had no issues. We always found a spot right in front of the Inn. The staff was very warm and inviting and had great recommendations for food and activities. We cant wait to come back for another stay. Jason and Yara

The property is really cute and the location is excellent! It is within walking distance of Ocean Avenue where there’s lots of shopping and a variety of restaurants. Be aware it is an old inn so it does not have air conditioning and the wall heater in the bedroom will not heat the bathroom. Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
