Inn Details
Built in 1926, the Happy Landing is ideally situated……a short stroll to either the white sands of Carmel’s renowned beaches or those quaint downtown shops. The English style design embodies the Hansel and Gretel charm of an era gone by and has evolved into one of Carmel's most romantic places to stay. Enjoy the comforts of our antique-furnished rooms with their cathedral ceilings and stained glass windows – some with fireplaces. Outside your door you will find our award winning gardens where you can reflect by the pond, or simply relax under the gazebo. Each morning a warm breakfast is brought to your room. Join us at one of Carmel’s true landmarks… Happy Landing Inn

Happy Landing is a great name for this place, it is just so charming. And my 10 year old son loved getting breakfast served in the morning. We set up a tray by the fireplace and enjoyed quiche and muffins. And when we got back to Louisiana we realized we had left my son's best stuffed friend back in the room. The staff had him "express shipped" back to us with a "Happy Landing." Many thanks! The Marchands

My family and I stayed in the King Suite (2 adults, 2 children and 2 dogs). The suite was perfect for us since the living room is very nicely separated from the bedroom. Our 9 month old was able to quietly take naps throughout the day, while the rest of us stayed in the other room. The breakfast each morning was hot and the best continental type of breakfast I've had of all the B&B's we've stayed at in Carmel (warm quiche and muffins along with fresh fruit, juice and warm beverage). We actually ate it all, every morning. I wish there was a little kitchenette available, but they did accommodate us with a small refrigerator (they don't have microwaves or coffee makers so it was difficult to warm up water or our baby bottle. The place is very close to the beach. Closer than most of the dog friendly places in Carmel. And the price is very reasonable. We'll definitely stay here again!

This "Bed and Breakfast" stood out from others for two reasons: 1) their dog friendly policy and 2) proximity to the beach and downtown Carmel. These were the ONLY items we were happy with. Due to a mistake by the innkeeper’s mistake, the room we reserved was given away. Once she discovered it was HER mistake, she was very apologetic and placed us in a vacant room until the morning. Up to that point, I think she thought we made up the reservation and forged the reservation confirmation from her system! The rooms are cold, damp and smelly. And VERY SMALL. The carpet is old and frayed and probably the source of much of the smell. The shower was dark and small. The mat for the shower was old and looked scarred. There was one small bottle of shampoo and a wrapped bar of soap on the window sill. There were no other bathroom amenities. For that matter, there were no other amenities periods. No coffee maker, nothing to make hot water, no microwave and no utensils. Breakfast was delivered to the room but it appeared to be the muffin and quiche from Costco. The pitcher of coffee was horrible. The only advantage of staying here is its location but maybe that's all it needs to be. For what we paid for our stay, we expected a MUCH more. Would we return or would we recommend this inn to anyone? NO!

My dog, Lance, and I enjoyed a very pleasant three nights at the Happy Landing Inn. We arrived on a very wet, rainy Tuesday afternoon in late June. We were greeted by Dawn who was friendly and very helpful in providing me with places around Carmel, especially restaurants, that allowed my dog. We were given room #2, a small but very inviting queen room that was very light due to the fact it has five windows! A nice breakfast of quiche, muffin, orange juice, fruit salad, coffee, and a milk bone for my dog was brought to my room every morning. Dawn and Diane, the lovely ladies who run the inn were both friendly and very nice to my dog. The Happy Landing Inn is at the top of my list for places to stay whenever I'm in Carmel.
very nice

My partner and I stayed in a one-bedroom suite. Lots of genuine 1920s-1930s Carmel CA atmosphere. Fireplace, vaulted ceiling, and TV in livingroom, separate bedroom with vaulted ceiling (worked really well because one of us likes to retire while the other stays up later), bathroom off hallway so that one did not disturb to sleeping partner when using the bathroom. Lends itself to a two-bedroom arrangement, when desired. Ocean, restaurants and art galleries within easy walking distance. We liked it so much that we returned a week later for a second stay in the same suite, and may soon return again. FWP
