With epic views overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the Highlands Inn is built into in a stunning natural environment made even more special by friendly and impeccable staff seamlessly blending the amenities of a large property with the refined charm of a boutique hideaway.

The inn is also known for the romantic five star Pacific’s Edge restaurant and the spectacular Sunset Lounge, both with panoramic views of the coastline. You’ll enjoy the inn’s luscious, beautifully landscaped grounds; little waterfalls, babbling brooks, and hidden sitting areas, as well as majestic pines, with flowers continually in bloom. After a morning of yoga, take a dip in the heated outdoor swimming pool or unwind by relaxing in the spa. On the grounds you will also find 3 Jacuzzi's and a 24 Hour StayFit fitness center. If it's outdoor activity you crave, complementary bicycles are provided for rides around the property and mountain bike rentals for longer rides. Let the Les Clefs d’Or Concierge arrange a day trip to Carmel by-the-Sea, a round of golf at nearby Pebble Beach or advice and complementary tasting passes for some of the 13 wine tasting rooms within walking distance in Carmel village or more than 20 wineries within a 20 minute drive through the beautiful Carmel Valley. They also provide useful maps for hikes, jogs and bike rides around the area. The options are limited only by your imagination inspired by the breathtaking vistas around Carmel.

Relax and enjoy partial views of the dramatic Pacific Ocean coastline from the private balcony of your master suite, smell the fresh ocean breeze and listen to the crackling sounds of your wood-burning fireplace (wood is supplied by the inn).
