   Fostering relationships to reinvigorate and share the good news about this wonderful gem in downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea. Creating magical experiences whether you have a social event, wedding, small board retreat, family reunion, celebrations, golf outing, or special event. From the ornate entrance and stately wrought iron embellishments to clubby Terry’s Lounge — everything about the Cypress Inn speaks to the Golden Age of Hollywood with a sleek retro vibe. The interior design of all 44 guestrooms and suites — including the coveted Queen Tower with its triad of impeccable views — fuses Hollywood glam with Spanish-Moroccan overtones in a fresh spiced-tone palette of paprika, ginger and clove.Part of the elite collection of Carmel Boutique Inns, Cypress Inn and Terry’s Lounge are recognized as a local’s hangout and a traveler’s dream destination. The Inn is dog-friendly, offers outdoor dining as well as indoor seating, a fully stocked bar, and features live music in the living room and, on Sundays, on the patio.
