What we've verified
Garland Ranch Regional Park is in Carmel Valley and lets dogs under voice control onto its trails. Carmel Beach, off-lead under voice control, is the coast option.
Dogs aren't in Lucia Restaurant and Bar, the spa or the pool and hot tub areas.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
USD 250, One-time, non-refundable, per dog
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Dogs are welcome around the grounds on a lead and there's a designated relief area. Dogs aren't in Lucia Restaurant and Bar, the spa, the pool, the hot tub or the infinity jacuzzi. You need to be in the room, or take the dog out, for housekeeping.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
