Enhancements to include renovations to Pacific's Edge restaurant and hotel guestrooms
Carmel Highlands, CA, December 28, 2015 - The renowned
Hyatt Carmel Highlands,
which overlooks the Big Sur Coast and features 48 luxuriously appointed
guestrooms, prepares for its centennial anniversary with one of the
most exciting transformations in its history.
The hotel's award-winning restaurant,
Pacific's Edge http://www.pacificsedge.com,
along with the guestrooms, bar and lobby area will undergo a series of
upscale enhancements inspired by the property's refined charm and
classic seaside setting.
Beginning
in the new year, renovations will feature upgrades to Pacific's Edge,
including refreshed décor and a new 40-seat, 1,200-square-foot outdoor
patio. The heated open-air space will allow patrons to enjoy al fresco
dining and dramatic ocean vistas year round. Once the refurbishments are
complete, Pacific's Edge will merge with the hotel's casual bistro,
California Market, to become one restaurant. Chef Minton and executive
sous chef Alvaro Dalmau are devising a new menu that will offer the most
popular items from both restaurants. The 50-page wine list at Pacific's
Edge will also be updated with more emphasis on the many excellent
vintages from Monterey County. The new venue is scheduled to open during
the second quarter of 2016.
"We are
thrilled to offer our patrons these improvements," said Mel Bettcher,
managing director of the Hyatt Carmel Highlands. "This luxurious refresh
will offer some new design elements, while maintaining the unique and
authentic feel that has made visiting this property such a memorable
experience for so many during the last century."
In
addition to the restaurant, guests will enjoy new furnishings, décor,
color schemes, heating and air conditioning in the hotel's 48 rooms
inclusive of its 10 suites. The guestrooms' refreshed look will draw
upon the hotel's upscale coastal ambience. The existing bar, Sunset
Lounge, will be reconfigured to showcase the views of the Pacific
coastline. New furnishings and living room style components will be
added to the hotel's lobby area, which will be outfitted to accommodate
private parties of more than 100 guests.
