This spectacular site was once home to State Senator Edward and Mrs. Bess Tickle. A great lover of flowers, particularly the pink varieties, Mrs. Tickle favoured a suggestion to name their hillside stone cottage ‘Tickle Pink.’ The enchanting stone cottage has long since disappeared, but the name and its traditions happily remain. This luxury Carmel oceanfront Inn offers a taste of heaven that’s definitely down-to-earth.

With only 35 elegant and luxurious rooms, all with incredible coastal views and a balcony, this is a peaceful retreat.  You'll love the evening cheese and wine reception, set to soothing classical music, that takes place on the cliff terrace daily.
