Located in the lovely Carmel by the sea this charming cottage hotel has such potential. The room is inviting with fireplace. The distraction is the deferred maintenance on the floors and an area that concerned me that could’ve been mole in the bathroom.

Beautiful small cabin style hotel in Carmel. 10 minute walk to carmel downtown. Parking for each cottage is separate in front of cottage. Perfect place for long stay.

The petit pali as near a perfect of stay as you could get. The hotel is right next door to all the best shopping in Carmel and restaurants. We didn’t have to drive anywhere! On top of an amazing location the continental breakfast was one of the best (along with all other amenities) I’ve ever had; the staff was also very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be staying at the petit Pali for my next trip to Carmel. Oh! And you can’t beat the price for this place.

I stayed in a cottage with a kitchen and two bedrooms, plus a pull out bed. It was not fancy, but worked great for 3 friends. The January price was a bargain. We loved the Carmel beach nearby and we even had someone there playing bagpipes the first night.
