Cypress Inn

This inn, partly owned by Carmel resident and luminary Doris Day, is a local landmark. Its famous Mediterranean exterior and roof of red tile has landed it in many guidebooks. Inside, you'll find bright skylights, a spacious lobby, a library bar and a gorgeous fireplace. The rooms are luxurious, featuring a color scheme of whites, creams and yellows. The balconies offer incredible views of the beach that is within walking distance. It's a perfect combo of country comfort and city luxury.
