“Carmel” deluxe (1st-floor) condo by pool~pond~sea
No wonder Tommy Bahama wants to spend an endless summer (year-round!) at "The Carmel" ~ and you would, too, even if only for a week or a weekend! This (1st-floor) 2-bedroom showcase condo, furnished in classy-coastal-cottage décor, is only a stroll away from Whitecap Beach, and is just steps away from all Beach Club resort-style amenities ~ pool, hot tub, sauna, gym. Yet you'll sense a quiet peace at "The Carmel” with its private patio views of the fishing pond, the beckoning beach, and more...

Relaxing Coastal Treasure
The house is peaceful and relaxing. Everything you need is here to have a great time. The kitchen is fully stocked. The master bath has a deep tub for soaking. The back deck and screened in porch have morning sun and a great hammock. The front yard is fully fenced with a small fire pit for a romantic evening or smores with the kids. The lower deck is great to park your personal boat or try your luck at catching crabs. My hope is to make this place a home away from home. Permit# 2022-195692
