Highly recommend this property if you are looking for beautiful accommodations and the best host, ever!

The ocean view penthouse was perfect for our 3 day getaway to downtown Carmel. Everyone at the property and restaurant were amazing. Our 2 small children had a blast! Can’t beat the location, the deck and fireplace, and the service. Totally worth the price!

Perfect Pre-Thanksgiving Weekend
We had a fabulous time staying at The Pocket! The views were amazing, the location was perfect, and the amenities were outstanding! Kent was incredibly accommodating and met us at the property to check in and even checked in on us during dinner a The Pocket restaurant. We brought our dog with us and they had a huge dog bed for her to lay on while we sat by the outdoor fireplace. We enjoyed our time so much that we will surely be back! We talked about renting the downstairs unit on our next visit so we can have more of our family join us. We would highly recommend and stay again! Love, love, love!

Amazing Carmel Property
Where do I start, the staff, property, cleanliness, and food at the below restaurant were all 10/10. The apartment itself was much larger than we anticipated, it was spacious with a top of the line kitchen, fire place, living room, etc.. The outdoor patio with the grill and fire pit were an amazing addition. We look forward to staying at the Pocket Residence for all future stays to Carmel. I can not thank, Jane, Sunny, Jose, and the rest of the staff at the restaurant and apartments enough for their service.

Perfect getaway in Carmel
Absolutely lovely place and perfect spot. We enjoyed the outside deck immensely, having wine by the fire almost every night as we watched the sun set into the ocean. The flexibility of the 2nd room to be a bedroom or office was clutch for us, as we had friends join over the weekend and then converted to office during the week.

Pocket in Carmel- Great Stay
This was a perfect location. We got wonderful service because the property is connected to the restaurant, so there is someone always there if anything is needed. The convenience of the property could not be better. The unit itself is beautiful. We used the deck and fire pit daily, the amenities are all top notch, high end appliances, all sorts of bells and whistles, just a beautifully appointed unit. Kent and Yvette can be very proud of their property and many thanks to Gary and Jane for taking such good care of us. And lastly, the adjacent Pocket Restaurant was just excellent!

Luxury living in the heart of Carmel
This condo is phenomenal - a slice of luxury living in Carmel-by-the-Sea. The property manager was very communicative and accommodating. Everything is in working order and was a much-needed home away from home feel in the middle of our two week PCH vacation. Definitely hope to stay here again when the time comes!

Wonderful Stay
The property is lovely, as described. The apartment is spacious and clean. We enjoyed staying in the middle of Carmel, within walking distance of, well, everything. We made reservations at The Pocket restaurant downstairs our first night and the food and atmosphere was amazing and very welcoming. We also wine tasted at Talbots downstairs and had a great time- would recommend both. Inside the unit, if you have the windows open there is a low murmur of restaurant noise, but it was not intrusive and I found it enjoyable. There is laundry within a closet inside the second bedroom in the unit, which we used and found very convenient. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and I would like to thank our hosts for making the check in and out process so easy.

Relaxing getaway with ocean views
We had a lovely stay at the oceanview penthouse. The location is great - walkable to everything in Carmel with beautiful views of the water. The interior is newly updated and we enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen. We spent most of our time on the deck sitting by the fire and grilling out. The outdoor heaters were perfect for chilly nights in Carmel!

Great location in Carmel
Fabulous location and amenities and very modern penthouse! They even provided 2 bottles of Talbot wine which was very welcoming. Only tricky thing is you have to walk through restaurant to get to your penthouse but very comfortable.

Like living in your fantasy home
We loved the Penthouse. Every little detail of the apartment is deluxe... from radiant heat bathroom floors to the Sonos sound system to the fire pit and heat lamp outside. Kent was terrific - great communication, flexible. The restaurant will deliver meals up to the apartment. Love the buzz of the diners below, and it’s never too loud. Sunset is beautiful with view of the ocean. Definitely will come back!

Luxurious Five Star Getaway
My husband and I stayed at the Ocean View Penthouse for my birthday last week. It was our first trip in a year since covid. Such a well appointed space with high end everything! From the steam shower to the gourmet chef’s kitchen, private deck with fire pit and outdoor kitchen, views of the ocean and on and on. If you’re ready for some pampering, this place is for you. The food at the restaurant below was fantastic and quickly delivered to us as if we were dining at the restaurant but to our own private space upstairs. Once done, a quick call and the dishes are cleared. So effortless and a great feature, especially with covid. Located a block and a half off Ocean Ave and a short walk to the beach, the location is pretty perfect too. Highly recommend!

It says so much about a property owner when they took the time to arrange fresh flowers along with a lighted Christmas tree for our holiday visit. We have nothing but thanks to this host for a memorable stay in an impeccable property at a prime Carmel-by-the-Sea location. Highly recommend!
