The bay area is home to some amazing eateries and charm that you will find no where else. San Francisco is a wonderful bustling city, but locals and longtime visitors to the bay area, may be looking for a bit more seclusion and peace of mind.

Carmel has a lot to offer in terms of rest and relaxation, as well as some great local shopping! The county takes safety as its upmost priority, so most places are frequently sanitizing, require masks to be worn, and only allow a certain amount into the stores. The favorite place for shoppers is Carmel Plaza which is in the heart of Carmel. It offers a wide array of shops and eateries that offer great local items and seafood favorites! One place you have to try if you are a fan of seafood or lobster bisque, is Flaherty’s. This place is downright amazing and a personal favorite of many families that frequent Carmel. In terms of other activities, Carmel is home to some amazing local state parks and coastal beaches that are never too crowded. Finding a perfect place for your family to the enjoy the ocean, will be a breeze. Many local beaches now have lifeguards on duty as well for peace of mind and safety. In terms of lodging, our personal favorite is the Hyatt Carmel Highlands. It can seem a bit pricey at first, but the view and lodging you get are worth the cost. Many of the rooms have a wonderful balcony for ocean viewing experience and relaxation. They all come with a wood burning fireplace to stay warm and cozy on those winter nights and a full kitchen is present within most rooms, so you don’t feel like you have to go out every night. Carmel has something for everyone, and it will be a great place of rest and relaxation.
