Absolutely love this place because of its plants and gardens! Maybe I’m biased but I think this is a perfect peaceful setting for a bookstore. Walking down that narrow alley with beautiful decors along the walls is just a mesmerizing experience. This also fits perfectly with Carmel’s overall chill vibes. If you are a plants lover, definitely check it out! The bookstore itself has a big collection of booklets of self reflection/self care/spiritual. They also have some jewelry as well.
This is a very nice quaint bookstore in a very unique location. I liked the bookstore but the either wasn’t friendly and didn’t greet anyone who entered store. She just sat there as if she didn’t want to be at work. I spoke to her and had to twice before she spoke. This was Tuesday, July 12th at 12pm. This is what truly turned me off with store; the employees behavior. They have done very nice books and I especially like the children’s selections. They also have mood beads etc. This would be a wonderful store to visit and make purchase IF they had friendly faces to greet you. I refuse to spend my money where I’m not welcome!
Eclectic independent bookstore / new age store + a wonderful green space garden at the back. Local authors and a wide selection of children's books mix in with new age literature and other interesting products. At the back entrance is a small biodome with an extensive new age selection. A wonderful oasis of calm and nature within the village of Carmel
This is a very interesting place. If you haven’t been, check it out! They have a small selection of books and a very dated selection of children’s books. They have a large selection of tarot and crystals. They had some very cute jewelry. The biggest thing I’d go for is the plant and garden part. Very cute items and succulents for sale. They have all the makings for a very peaceful visit. Their back part is where the peace is. The greenhouse/canopy part was my favorite.
