Perfect Little Spot

Barry the host was awesome. Had a little charcuterie board and wine waiting in the cottage when we arrived and some tips on things in and around Carmel. Easy to get a hold of him. Great little one room, one bath spot with a kitchen and a laundry room below. Just about 2 blocks to walk into the retail section of Carmel and its cool little shops and restaurants. We went whale watching, beach combing, bike riding, kayaking, hiking in Big Sur, hiking in Pinnacles, did a spa afternoon, and plenty more all within an hour and a half or less of a drive, most being within about 20 minutes. Would definitely recommend going, it was great!

Best Host ever!!

From the moment we booked this adorable cottage, Barry has been the best host we have ever had. That's saying allot as we do not stay at resorts when we vacation, we look for cozy quiet getaways and this place has it all. Barry worked with me to place a surprise in the cottage prior to our arrival for our first anniversary, This surprise brought tears to my wife's eyes. You just don't find that in any host. In addition, Barry's many personal surprises and special touches made this place so memorable. Walking distance to all of Carmel. Top of our VRBO list... Highly recommended!!

The PERFECT cottage in Carmel

We just spent the most amazing week recharging, relaxing and reconnecting in this cute cottage! It was exactly what we needed! The cottage was in a great location, a short stroll from the downtown Carmel shops and restaurants. It was well appointed and meticulously cleaned and maintained. The bed was comfortable and the linens luxurious. Our host, Barry, is second to none! He was always in contact with us and went above and beyond to make our stay special. I really can’t thank Barry enough for the week we had in the cottage! It was the perfect way to spend our 25th wedding anniversary. I will definitely book the cottage again when I return to Carmel.

Barry is the finest host we have ever had at VRBO, or any other rental platform. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome - wine & cheese board upon our arrival, homemade cookies with ice cream, and a couple of unobtrusive check ins during our stay to make sure everything was running smoothly.Barefoot Comfort is equally outstanding. It is impeccably designed and furnished, with top of the line linens, bath towels, and furnishings. On site laundry was a plus. The location is fabulous! We walked to dinner, the galleries and shopping.We are excited about our next stay.

Beautiful cottage in a secret garden

If we could give 1000 stars in all categories, we would! Cozy, quaint, clean, magical. This cottage was the perfect place for two and came with all the amenities! My husband and I spent a week here for our 10th anniversary. Conveniently located to surrounding towns and trails, we were able to revisit so many places from my childhood, an easy drive to everything! Don’t feel like driving? We were in walking distance to cute shops, restaurants and the beach!! Barry is a wonderful host, easily accessible for questions. Aside from the amazing serene garden landscape with calming water fountains, we were welcomed with a delicious board of crackers, cheese, jam and wine waiting for us! What a nice treat after traveling across country. Barry makes sure to give the finest touches. We will definitely be staying here again if we visit, and will recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Amazing Trip!

My wife and I came stayed in this VRBO for our planned elopement in the Big Sur. When we booked the stay, Barry called us to introduce himself, to learn about us, and the reason for our stay. Barry did a great job communicating with us about the place and even made an adjustment on the length of our stay seamless. Barry knew we were coming for our wedding and wrote us a handwritten card and gave us a cheese and cracker plate with a bottle of wine. It was very thoughtful! He had a few other really nice things he did but I don't want to ruin the surprise for anyone staying here. Just know that Barry really cares about the people that stay at the cottage. We plan on returning in the future to revisit our ceremony location and won't stay anywhere else!

Where do I start..

The only aspect better than our charming cottage, amazingly comfortable bed and linens, perfect location (easy walk to everything in town and to gorgeous beach), sensational location to route 1 drive and Big Sur, as well as to Monterey for aquarium, 17 mile drive, etc., was the absolutely supreme host, Barry, with whom we felt an instant kinship. He knows all of the best hideaways as well as the "musts" for first-time visitors, and i know it will get even better as we continue to visit bc once isn't even close to enough! We have already signed up to stay again next year. We are two western New York special education teachers who really are not annually able to take such a vacation, but Barry's place is reasonable for what you get in return and very worth the sacrifice and savings in the interim. We couldn't be more impressed! And more eager to return!!

Fantastic stay in Carmel

We stayed for a week in Barry’s Starfish cottage. It was cozy, very clean and comfortable. What a treat to find a charcuterie tray, chocolates and a bottle of wine! Loved the location. It was so convenient to walk to restaurants and all of the shops in Carmel. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Barry for taking care of us!

Qui vous reçoit ?

Vous ĂȘtes reçu par Barry, Owner at Carmel Retreats

Image de profil de l’hîte
Hi, I’m Barry — a lifelong lover of old homes and the quiet stories they carry. I’ve spent years restoring places with soul — homes built with care, meant to be lived in slowly. There’s something deeply fulfilling about uncovering a house’s hidden character, honoring its past, and giving it new purpose.

I grew up in Chicago, surrounded by timeless architecture and true craftsmanship. In my twenties, I wandered through North Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, falling in love with the art of hospitality — the shared table, the unspoken warmth of being welcomed as family. Those experiences taught me that real connection lives at the intersection of people, place, and space — a feeling I try to evoke in every home I create.

Hosting happened naturally. Friends began staying in my renovated cottages, and I realized how much joy came from crafting spaces where people instantly feel at ease — spaces that are simple, serene, and genuine.

For me, hosting isn’t business; it’s an extension of care. I want guests to rest well, breathe deeply, and leave a little lighter than when they arrived. I believe the smallest details — soft light, a quiet reading nook, the scent of ocean air through an open window — can shift how we feel.

When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me exploring the California coast, sketching ideas for another design project, or traveling to gather new inspiration. Wherever I go, I’m drawn to that same timeless grace — the kind of hospitality that makes you feel instantly at home.

The best part of all this is hearing from guests who say they found peace here, or that they didn’t want to leave. That’s when I know the spirit of the place has done its work.

Welcome to Carmel — I hope your time here feels as restorative as it was to create.‹‹

— Barry

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

Carmel-by-the-Sea has always felt like a place apart — a small coastal village that moves at its own rhythm. I first came here for the beauty of the ocean and the trees, but I stayed for the feeling it gives me every time I return: a sense of calm, creativity, and belonging.

The air here carries the scent of salt, pine, and cypress. Mornings arrive with soft fog, and by afternoon, light filters through the branches, scattering across stone walls and garden paths. It’s beautiful without trying to be — quiet, natural, and timeless.

What I love about this neighborhood is its simplicity. There are no streetlights or sidewalks, just narrow lanes, ivy-covered fences, and homes that reflect the people who’ve cared for them. Each cottage feels individual, shaped by hand and history.

My home sits in a peaceful spot close to town and the beach. You can walk for coffee, stop at the bakery, browse a few galleries, and be back in time to hear the waves through the trees. The pace is unhurried, and that’s part of what makes it special.

The people here are another reason I love this place. Artists, travelers, and longtime locals all seem drawn by the same quiet spirit. It’s easy to start a friendly conversation on a morning walk or while tending a garden gate.

Even after years of living here, I still feel grateful each time I turn down the hill and see the ocean ahead. Carmel has a way of slowing you down and bringing you back to yourself.

That’s why I chose this neighborhood — for its natural beauty, its human scale, and the simple peace it offers. I hope you feel it too.

‹— Barry

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

What makes this cottage special isn’t any single feature — it’s the quiet harmony of light, space, and intention. From the moment you step through the garden gate, there’s an ease to it — a sense that everything belongs exactly where it is.

When I found the cottage, it was worn but full of promise. The bones were solid, the craftsmanship honest, the spirit intact. I restored it piece by piece, keeping what was real and true, and bringing in light, warmth, and calm. Every choice — from the hardware to the linens — was made with care, not to impress, but to feel right.

The cottage sits behind native gardens and old trees that filter the sun throughout the day. Inside, the design is simple and intuitive. Morning light pours through the windows; evenings settle into a quiet glow. The materials are natural — wood, stone, linen, glass — creating a timeless calm that reflects Carmel’s landscape.

What sets this place apart is its balance: old soul, modern comfort, and a genuine sense of ease. It’s a space meant for slowing down — to read, rest, or watch the light shift through the trees. Guests often say it feels larger than it is, not because of size, but because of how open and peaceful it feels.

The cottage is close to both town and the beach, yet tucked far enough back to feel secluded. You can walk for coffee, dinner, or a sunset stroll without ever starting your car. Mornings bring the scent of ocean mist; nights carry the hush of waves in the distance.

I didn’t restore this home as an investment, but as an act of care — to preserve a small piece of Carmel’s quiet spirit. Over the years, guests have told me the same thing: that the cottage helped them slow down, rest, and reconnect.

It’s not a showpiece. It’s a refuge — a simple, soulful home that holds space for you to feel at ease.
