Contenta Inn, hotel in Carmel Valley

Featuring free WiFi, a hot tub and a heated outdoor pool, Contenta Inn offers accommodation in Carmel Valley, 20 km from Monterey. Free private parking is available on site. All rooms have a TV.

I really liked that there is a separate exit to the patio, which has a hot water jacuzzi and a swimming pool. The Jacuzzi was hot even at 2 am which made us very happy. There were also many sun loungers on which you can lie down and sunbathe. The room was very clean and there were enough towels, a working coffee machine and a huge very comfortable bed and a lot of pillows. Cozy room, we really liked it.

    It was such a magical place full of restaurants, wineries, and cute cafes. I especially enjoyed the community vibe there. The community park, the history center and the library were nice surprises. It was neat to learn a bit of history about the village. My kid loved it too.

    Beautiful weather and location - reasonable distance from SF for a nice getaway. Wish we could have organized a horseback riding trip or something but couldn't get my act together... need to reserve several days in advance.

    We mostly drove up here to see Big Sur but ended up spending some time in Carmel Valley. We were only here for one morning so we grabbed some coffee and breakfast from Cafe Luna (which was great) and we took the 17 mile drive scenic drive along the coast and made all the stops along the way. They give you a pamphlet upon entering the park, which costs $10.50. It was worth it!

    Carmel Valley is a lovely, picturesque town from which it is easy to get to Monterey and Carmel by the Sea. There are lovely hiking trails nearby. We especially enjoyed the Garland Ranch Park just down the road which has many trails of all levels of difficulty (walking and biking). There are numerous restaurants in Carmel Valley and the three we tried were all excellent (Cafe Rustica, Thai Village, Trailside Cafe). Great coffee and pastries at the Wild Goose Cafe too. BTW the picture for Carmel Valley is a bit misleading as it shows the coast on the Monterey Peninsula which is 17 miles away but easily accessible.

    Everything is so easy to access. Lots of good casual restaurants and services. The one outstanding shop that caught our attention was Qual & Olive that has a tremendous selection of California olive oils, vinegars and gifts.

    This is a bit inland from the Bay Area but not too far - only about 20 mins of a very pleasant drive. Hotel is very pretty - log cabin style with pretty gardens. The pool was wonderful for cooling down after the heat of the morning. Room was spacious and clean. Staff were absolutely lovely, recommending where we could go out for dinner and so on. Altogether a very enjoyable one night stop - over on our way down the coast. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable!

    This place has a cute retro aesthetic and it had a great pool, hot tub, and ping pong table for use into the night. The pool overlooked the mountains and we had it mostly to ourselves which was great. We had a late check in and the staff was super accommodating and there was continental breakfast in the morning with great Carmel Valley coffee. The area nearby is full of vineyards and cute restaurants, although they do close a little early. Amazing spot!

    This is a beautiful little hotel in a fabulous location. Our room was big and had everything we needed. We would love to have stayed longer but we were only travelling through this area. The staff are really lovely. I didn’t use the pool as I had a cold but the others in my group did. The fire pits in the eve are a great place to relax and unwind.

    Even though you can tell the Inn is older they have done an excellent job updating it both inside the rooms & out. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The grounds are beautifully kept! It is within walking distance of the town which is also very quaint and fun! We would definitely stay here again if we come back to this area!

    Amazing stay. Great staff - so helpful and kind. Great location - only 20 mins in car to Carmel by the Sea and a short walk into the Valley. Lovely pool and scenery around the inn and the rooms are spacious, comfortable, really clean and the beds are super comfortable! A great base for driving Big Sur also.
