About the Hotel

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.

Amazingly beautiful place to stay and relax! The food was wonderful and the service was great! Mostly enjoyed our time at the spa and the pool.

This was our 2nd stay at Carmel valley ranch. It was better this time since there were more programs available than when we came in 2023. For a family of 4, you need to book a ranch double/king suite which is quite large and spacious. Last time we had a valley view suite which was nice, but a bit more walking from the lodge. This time we stayed in the treetop suites which were very conveniently located near the lodge. The bathroom soaps and lotions all have the lavender scent which you find throughout the property. I really enjoyed this aromatic touch. We requested a rollaway bed so that we could all have more sleeping space in the bedroom, but it's the kind that folds up, so the center was not quite as supportive. We used the sofa bed on the previous visit and found that to be more comfortable (it is the more premium type sofa beds that you will also find in Disney hotels). We will probably just use that next stay.The Hyatt Globalist welcome for this location was 2 beverages at the Valley Kitchen. Last visit, we received a bottle of wine in the room. Both are nice, we had the complimentary beverage at dinner our first night. Breakfast at Valley Kitchen is also included (you can also use in room dining or grab to go options at the market). At Valley kitchen, there is a buffet set up or ordering a la carte. So we have plenty of options to pick from in the morning. We chose to walk around the resort with the exception of the pool. We drove there. The shuttle was very convenient the last time we visited, but since there were only 4 of us this time, we just chose to drive or walk.We started the day with a hike on the hilltop loop and ended up at the corral to see the animals for the meet & greet. The alpacas were quite cute. We all tried to lasso the stationary wooden animals. We also enjoyed the meet & greet at the garden. We were able to sample some pluots, feed the chickens, and just explore the space.The pool space was where we spent the most time, there were hot tubs of varying temperatures to accommodate little ones. There is an adult only pool for those that want a quieter space & to swim laps. You can play bocce ball, ping pong, tennis, and pickle ball too. The menu at the pool has expanded from our earlier visit. Plenty of yummy options & the soft serve machine was very popular.For those that may want to explore outside of the resort, Garland river park is a quick drive away and Earthbound farms has a great selection of food and space to hang out in.

Not worth the $

This resort didn't live up to the hype and didn't feel luxurious at all. We deeply regret visiting this property. The worst part was the dirty and unsafe baby gear they provided...after needing many, many follow-ups.

Lovely getaway

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Three nights was not long enough. The setting was spectacular, the staff was friendly and attentive, and my suite was spotless and stylish. Our group of five women loved our guided nature hike, our pickleball games, and our fitness classes. There is much to do on the property, but honestly, I could have sat all summer on my deck just watching the fog in the morning, and the deer, wild turkeys, and woodpeckers in the afternoon. The resort is a very special spot.

Heaven in Carmel Valley

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

The accommodations were luxurious, the service was exceptional. The grounds are easy to navigate and a stroll through the vineyards was peaceful, the lavender’s fields were so relaxing. There are a great many activities to consider but we went for relaxation and left feeling rejuvenated. Perfect vacation!
