Carmel Valley Ranch has always been an escape with plenty of room to roam, to explore, to discover. Where people rekindle romances, reunite with friends and family, revive spirits, or simply get away and play. And these days, play is more important than ever. Our all-suite accommodations are where the luxury of resort living meets the call of the wild. Swap stories by the fireplace. Gaze at the stars from your private deck as you savor a glass of wine from our own vineyard. You’ll be comfy, carefree, and most of all, captivated. The only Pete Dye-designed bentgrass golf course in Northern California is right here at Carmel Valley Ranch, and no matter how you slice it (or hook it), this par-70 layout offers something for all players: tactical shots, dramatic elevation changes and incredible scenery. Our talented artisans add a unique twist to experiences at The Ranch—join them and hang out with horses, say hello to honeybees, greet our goats, and more.

Beautiful property with wonderful hikes. Pool & hot tub were great and well maintained. Restaurant and wait staff were amazing. And, rooms were roomy and very nice.

I was disappointed with how much I spent to book this property, and then found out that all the spa facilities were closed for renovations. That was the main reason I booked this property. Otherwise, this would've been a nice property.

We had a fantastic time. Especially at eh Valley Kitchen where Savanah and Carly made us feel so special with a gluten free meal specially prepared for my wife! Thanks Chef Joe and Chef Chris. The staff at the entire property was so friendly. I wish we had more time to enjoy all the activities offered.

It is a lovely hotel but definitely not worth the expense. Would recommend the other hotels in the area instead. A few big issues -Rooms are massive but smelled a bit stale. You can also easily hear your neighbors next door -No notification at booking that the spa/pool was not operational. Instead I had to pay out of pocket to go to Refuge, which was lovely, but still disappointing. -AMEX FHR on its website clearly states breakfast is covered, but you only get $80. A normal breakfast without alcohol cost us $115, so clearly the credit is not sufficient. I have emailed them asking them to refund me the difference but even after 2 followups they have not responded. Pretty poor customer service. We are local so I'd love to return to continue using Amex FHR, but I will be choosing other local hotels instead.

The resort is absolutely beautiful (seriously out of an fairytale with rolling hills and beautiful sunsets) and very family friendly (I think dog friendly too, I recall seeing some dogs). We went with our child who was probably too little at the time to partake in many of the activities but we all had an enjoyable stay. The room was very spacious and impeccably clean. The food in the restaurant/breakfast is top notch with a wide selection. The staff is extremely hospitable and kind. There is a lot to do within the resort - hikes, a petting zoo, etc. Our stay was too short to do some of these and we plan to return for a longer visit this summer.
