We have been frequent guests at Bernardus over the past 3 years. This time it really felt like coming home.

This place was incredible I will definitely return. The service is 10/10 and the rooms are amazing, I felt so relaxed here.

Had a wonderful stay in Carmel Valley at Bernardus Lodge, nice to get away from the busy coast. Property and Staff were great and one of my favorate days was the 'stay at the resort day and read a book'. Lots of interesting hikes, dining and shopping to do in Carmel and the valley and this property is in a sweet spot for access. On the value side the resort fee is getting ridiculous and with tax is $80 a night, this is industry wide and should be banned.

There is just something about Bernardus that is immediately relaxing and calming. Thoughtful staff, spacious rooms (with heated bathroom floors!), with beautiful mountain scenery makes this a special place. The spa did get a bid crowded (sort of surprising for our Tuesday visit), but not unpleasant. You definitely need a vehicle if you plan to go off property, as nothing is really within walking distance. Verizon cell service did not work at all, but complimentary guest WiFi worked well, and other cell service providers worked well. Food at the restaurant is seasonal and high quality. We love it here!

I’ve been here many times and the service and experience are always on par. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway somewhere that’s not overly crowded this is the place! 5 star experience. Oh and something I always forget to mention is I love the heated floors in the bathroom!
