This was our second visit to CVR and this time we brought 6 other family members to enjoy the beauty, service, rooms, food and ambience of this fantastic property. Thoroughly enjoyed all the comforts of the rooms, the walking paths and the deer and turkey that roamed the property. This was the last leg of our golfing trip and the... More

Stunning views,gorgeous property, perfect setting and splendid accommodations. In three years, I've never had less than an amazing experience at CVR. Every employee I've come in contact with had a...

From the moment we were met at the front entrance our experience was great! The rooms - or really one bedroom flats are amazing. The lounge was beautiful, lovely bathroom and an amazing bed and veranda over looking the valley and golf course. The hilltop suite was lovely!! We lounged by the pool and the waiter most attentive.

Really, the title of my review says it all. This is a favorite splurge location. Gorgeous setting, fabulous accommodations, love the lavender massage at the spa, yummy food at the restaurant. My happy place is sitting in the infinity hot tub, overlooking the valley, while sipping a cocktail...divine!

This resort was recommended by my business partner. The location is outstanding, the rooms are large and well-appointed. Lots of activities, particularly for people who are fit. Wild turkeys and deer roam the property. The attitude of every one who works there (and there are lots of employees) is "how can we make this experience even better". I would recommend... More

Spent a night there with my sister and it was fabulous. Beautifully appointed room, great setting, super friendly service. Not sure if we got upgraded from a standard room, but our room had a huge bathroom and great view of the golf course.

This resort is almost perfect! I stay 1 time per year and its wonderful each time... Nice amenity options if you like those types of things... The property is so pretty and quite and relaxing. The food at the restaurant was good, service was a bit slow thus making the dining experience odd. This is just a personal preference they... More

We have visited Carmel Valley Ranch three times during the past two plus years and each time we have enjoyed a wonderful stay. The property is so large and laden with beauty and amenities so we rarely get in our car during our visits. They offer a large pool for families and about a 1/4 mile uphill they offer another...
