806 Playa Ave, Sand City“Extremely well organized with a spacious and intuitive layout! Also the prices are insanely reasonable for very high end clothing/appliances, etc. The staff needs some free cookies, coffees, and compliments though! Keep up the hard work.”
“What a beautiful store! Everything in there was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and well-made. You'll want to take several loops around the store just to take everything in! There's something for everyone in here, with dishes, glasses, cookware, gardening pots with actual drainage holes, and some amazing statues. Also, the prices are incredibly fair for what you're buying.”
“The Nut Hut is one of the best kept secret in Carmel! Located in the Court of Fountains, this unique boutique caters to those of us who seek unique and healthy snacks to enjoy when exploring the village. Our family was enjoying lunch at Anton & Michel's when we spied this unique find. Organic, incredibly delectable nuts and fruits are their raison d 'etre. These treats come in environmentally friendly, resealable pouches, perfect for an afternoon bimble. Our current favorites are the Cardamom Maple Cashews, Everything but the Bagel Cashews, and Black Mission Figs, but there are so many others to try! Thank you Blaine and Miguel, your shop always brings a big smile to our face. Thank you also for shipping to us, on our long absences in-between visits to this little corner of heaven.”
“Love this cute refillery! It has everything I need, the owners are helpful, very convenient way to fill up on all that I need without buying more plastic covered products and bringing them into my home. I love how you can buy as little or as much as you need, too, and use your own nice bottles. Fill up travel-size bottles for your trips, or stock up for a full year!”
“Wonderful little treat! Such a cute shop FULL of hidden treasures custom made by Babs, the owner. Plan on spending time looking at every inch because there's so many hidden pieces, art, and treasures tucked away in the displays and on the walls!
Also, stop in and check out her son Derek's brand new shirt and hat collection that's an homage to the marine research taking place in Monterey Bay.”
“My husband and I love Palomas Home Furnishings....one of our very favorite shops in Carmel! We have purchased five lamps from Palomas over the past couple of years, and we are very satisfied with the quality and beauty of our lamps. These lamps make both our dining room & living room look elegant. Palomas pricing is very fair for such lovely & quality items. We have received many compliments on our lamps, from both family & friends. The owner, Arnie was very helpful, and responsive to our special requests. Highly recommend this shop, and will be back to purchase other items.”
“We stumbled upon this magical shop and what made it so special were Monica’s ideas about what went with our purchases, so we could curate a whole look, and her ideas for new hot spots in the Plaza to try! Thank you, Monica! It’s clear you love what you do and we thoroughly enjoyed shopping at Beachwood Home with you! We’ll be back!”

“Wonderful store - outstanding selection of quality, hard to find products that are curated with one goal on mind - to help you live a healthy life. Kristi is friendly and very knowledgeable about every single product they sell. Highly recommend this store.”
10AM - 5PM
Carmel-By-The-Sea“One of my favorite shops in Carmel! We always stop by here when visiting. They have a plethora of cute nicknacks, hosting ware, kid stuff, and even some clothes. I'm usually drawn to the hosting items and charcuterie accompaniments, but have left here with a hat and a puzzle among other small items. While most of the items are on the pricier side, we can often find some cool stuff that isn't too expensive. Aside from the cute and fun items they sell, they also have free coffee and fresh baked cookies on their back patio. It's such a quaint and relaxing spot to stop and sip and snack before you continue your shopping. The employees working are always very friendly!”
“Cute family run place to not only find handmade, unique gifts but there's also a business center inside. Say hi to the store mascot, an adorable pup named Gus. The owners, Jeffrey and Randy are fun to talk too and are very knowledgeable about the village.”
“Great little shop run by a husband and wife team. The wife is an artist whose work hangs on the walls along with family members and other local artists. Lots of gift options and decor for the home. Commissions can be done as well. Beautiful shop with great people. They can ship anywhere as well.”

1999 Fremont Blvd, Seaside“Had a nice time checking out the store and browsing the isles. Picked up several foods, some sake and beer. Overall pleasant atmosphere and the employees were friendly.”
“Beautiful store! A lot of amazing gifts and garden stuff. The store is very clean and aesthetically pleasing. Store owner is super outgoing and friendly. Overall a very pleasant experience and I highly recommend stopping in for gifts for yourself or others!”
“We went to Monterey last summer and Carmel Bay Company was a good store to view. Inside there were bars of soap, fashionable clothing and greeting cards with books. On the way out, I was surprised when I saw Two Bad Mice greeting cards written by Anita Jeram, illustrator of Sam McBratney's book, Guess How Much I Love You.”
“Very nice associates. Quick and easy check outs. They had a cute apron that I purchased. Not necessarily standard size. Cute name plates and actually had my daughters name”
“While walking the mall with the grand kids I happened to see some pillows in the window of this store. So we stepped inside to select one. Upon our entry we were greeted by a friendly team member who was quite well trained in the knowledge of these unique beds. I really only wanted a pillow but decided to let him educate me about the ins and outs of these beds. He had me lay on several different beds to test them out. I tried a number of settings and learned that if I were to invest in a bed that the number 48 would be my best sleeping position. Then he really spoiled me by showing the epitome of mattresses version. Something that not only varies the firmness, but has buttons to make the mattress either hot or cold, depending on your room temperature. Since I live in the desert, where our summer temps reach 112 almost daily, I could really appreciate that cold setting on the bed. I almost actually caved in to buy one, but the grand kids reminded me that we were there to buy a pillow and not a bed. So I put down my credit card and purchased one of the best pillows I have ever owned. I know that hot and cold bed is something I really want, and I know someday I will be sleeping on one. That salesperson really taught me a lot about mattresses.”
“WOW! Amazing lanterns and so many eye-catching items in this store. Yes, it is very expensive, but we are sure their rent is high also. Definitely a lot of "eye-candy" in here! Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area!”

“One of the things I look for is what a company does when things go wrong; what’s their response.In my case there was an issue with communication and part ordering.I’m happy to report that Hearth Shop FULLY resolved my issue and ultimately made me whole. In addition the technician who worked on my wood stove was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and did a fantastic job.Great job!!”
“We had a good experience buying our amazing handmade dining table from Arhaus, Carmel. Our sales associate Tessa was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We looked for weeks for good quality table. So many stores don't have nice quality furniture . Tessa helped email us a quote, and we ended up buying a hand made table from Italy. It was even on sale which was an amazing value for this excellent quality piece.We received it within 10 days with a white glove delivery. Friendly, reliable movers.All around satisfactory experience! Saw that they are opening a new store at Stanford shopping Center. Giving Pottery Barn some competition!”
“Kathryn is your go-to for all your decorating advice. She is friendly, patient, knowledgeable, professional and fun. It is a delight to work with someone who loves what she does.”
“My wife and I just got our first house, and we wanted to furnish it nicely without spending too much. We happened upon a sale here, and we got me great pieces for very fair prices. We got a couple display models for less than half price and we're very excited to have them delivered. The man who worked with us, Zach, was very helpful, very knowledgeable, showed us lots of items and helped us narrow down the one we wanted without being pushy or demanding. Genuinely just very helpful and pointed us right where we needed to be. He's also great at stepping away at the right moment to let us talk while he goes and checks on prices and things, coming back with the needed information at the perfect time. It felt like he was always there but never intruding, exactly like a sales rep should be. The lady who helped us with financing, Stephanie, was very friendly and knew what she was doing, and she made getting the financing almost as easy as checking out at the grocery store. I'd come back here in a heartbeat and recommend it to anyone.”
