PROPERTY ACCESSIBILITY
Carmel Cottage Inn is an historic property consisting of five individual cottages built on a hillside.
The oldest cottage dates from 1910–1912, with the remaining cottages built in 1942. Because of the property’s age, layout, and terrain, accessibility features vary by cottage, and the property does not fully meet modern accessibility standards.
Guests with mobility, visual, hearing, or other accessibility needs are encouraged to review the information below carefully and to contact us with any questions before booking.
