10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Bernardus is an exceptional hotel. The rooms and grounds are so beautiful. It isn’t cheap but you do get a lot for your money. More than most places. The room comes stocked with 2 half bottles of wine plus a few other drinks and snacks AND the wine tasting at their tasting room in the town is all complimentary. From the rose garden to the pool, it is one of those places where every little detail is thought through. We met local friends of ours for lunch there and we all had an amazing experience at the restaurant Lucia. They are from the area and were also very impressed. We were coming from Carmel By The Sea and I was unsure of being away from the ocean and in the valley. No way! Next time we will be sure to stay there longer! The only downside was leaving.
A
7.7 Good
Pros:The room was HUGE and well-designed, inside and out! The restaurant was wonderful with the kind, attentive servers. The resort amenities looked great but we didn't get to use them. However, we were able to enjoy the room amenities--all snacks and beverages were included with the room. Valet, front desk and housekeeping staff were very nice, always smiling!
Cons:Whenever we called the front desk or when we tried to order room service, we always had to call a few times before we were able to reach someone. And although the restaurant and hotel was a great experience, it was very expensive! For one dinner at the restaurant, one room service breakfast for two adults and one child, and one daily resort fee--our total expenses came out to $550! Add that onto our king suite room which was on "sale" for $775/night.

9.7 Wonderful
Pros:From the moment we arrived the staff were friendly and accommodating. The rooms are large with great garden views and the bath tub was the largest we have seen in a hotel. Although the food choices are limited due to the hotel location the dinner and breakfast options were delicious. We will definately be stopping here again!
Cons:A little far out of Carmel but that wont stop us returning.
J
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:The rooms were great, staff was super courteous and helpful, love the feel and look of the place overall. Hope to be back often. They helped make our wedding incredible.
Cons:Now this is nitpicking, but there was a few Rollie Pollies in our room...I know we are out in rural country so critters and bugs are inevitable. Additionally, there were some inconsistencies and issues with room rates and reservations prior to arrival.
