Cypress Inn

Carmel-by-the-Sea, California

At the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California's acclaimed destination, is the Cypress Inn. The Inn embodies the Mediterranean charm of old Carmel — the living room is distinguished by its vaulted ceiling and welcoming fireplace, the courtyard by its beautiful landscaping, and the accommodations by their décor.

Rooms are finished in muted tones, several with fireplaces and beamed ceilings. The Cypress welcomes not only its guests but their animal friends as well. Owners Doris Day and Dennis LeVett believe that pets are a part of the family. Well-behaved pets are allowed throughout the Inn and can join their humans in the courtyard for breakfast and evening appetizers.
