Oyster Review Summary
Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators.
Pros
- Heated outdoor pool and three Jacuzzis
- Handsome, spacious rooms with modern decor, flat-screen TVs, and iPod docks
- Excellent on-site dining with awe-inspiring views
- Outdoor fire pit
- Large, modern fitness center
- Loaner bicycles available
- Most rooms feature either patios or balconies with sweeping views
- View-facing Jacuzzi soaking tub in some rooms
- Free outdoor valet parking
Cons
- No elevators, and grounds can be difficult to navigate
- Car required for visiting off-site attractions, shops and restaurants
- Wi-Fi for a fee
Bottom Line
The 144-room cliff-side Hyatt Carmel Highlands offers awe-inspired views unrivaled anywhere else around Monterey and Carmel -- some could even argue the entire West Coast. Accommodations are seemingly as roomy as the stunning ocean views they offer, most complete with working fireplaces and stocked with simple yet modern amenities. The on-site restaurants serve meals that rival the scenery, and the outdoor fire pit is good for relaxing and taking in healthy doses of sea breeze after a day of kayaking (you can rent kayaks on-site).

Oyster Hotel Review
Location
Situated on the cliffs of the gorgeous Carmel Highlands overlooking the Pacific Ocean
The Hyatt Carmel Highlands is located in one of the most picturesque locales in California, right on the seaside cliffs in Carmel Highlands. Cars are an absolute necessity here if you're planning on leaving the hotel.
Carmel Highlands is an unincorporated community located south of Carmel proper and north of Big Sur. The area is home to some of the most epic ocean views on the west coast. It's no wonder celebrities flock to build homes right on the dramatic coastal cliffs. Getting to restaurants, shopping or golfing requires driving 10 minutes north to Carmel proper.
