We would visit again!

Dorn's Original Breakers Cafe

We went with our two larger size dogs. They offered the dogs water right away and happily worked around the dogs. Great waitress. Very friendly and attentive. Food was good. Not the best, but it was good.

Great stay with room for Improvement

Carmel River Inn

We stayed here in April 2022 on the same weekend as the Big Sur Marathon. I did not know that it was marathon weekend when I booked. We went for a quiet relaxing weekend with the pups. The hotel is very quaint and super close to Carmel Beach (which is off-leash for those who don't know). It's also super close to all our favorite pet friendly restaurants and even a pet supply store with dog wash stations. We stayed in a studio cabin without a kitchenette. It was quite small and needs more counter space or hooks to hang dog leashes, beach towels, etc. But they give you sheets and rags so that the dogs can get on the bed and make themselves at home.

There are some cabins that have small fenced yards for the dogs, so I will definitely request one of these next time. However, there is plenty of space on the property to walk the dogs and even an area in the back that we could let Choo Choo off leash long enough to do his business. Hotel supplies poop bags if needed, but they aren't particular where dogs do their business as long as you pick it up. I believe they are under relatively new ownership so the website info and property maps don't completely match up, but just ask the staff if you have questions. They were very accommodating.

As others have said, the extra $40 per night per dog hurts a little, especially since they only clean the room after check out (I think because of Covid precautions). And marathon morning we were woke up before 7am to the sound of the announcer over loud speakers and we lost power a couple times, I think due to the power pull from the marathon. Overall, it wasn't that bad, but might want to double check that no major events are happening if you are looking for a quiet stay. We will definitely be going back.
