Absolutely stunning property. Surrounded by redwoods with incredible views of the coast. Very peaceful. The staff were very kind and helpful. The room was clean and well maintained. Close to the best hikes in Big Sur.
United States of AmericaAmazing breakfasts and meals. Location fantastic! Literally 10 minutes from the (unmarked) turn off to Pfeiffer Beach (no signs by the road, but definitely a must see!) and minutes from other state parks with waterfalls. I suggest getting a forest view room looking out over redwoods. The ocean view rooms are more expensive, but the coast/ocean fog makes the ocean views a bit less than vivid. The large double hammocks on the very private room decks are very comfortable! Stargazing from the infinity hot tub by one of the pools was pretty fantastic too. Be aware - California State Parks there do NOT allow dogs (though we saw what might have been service? dogs in some parks). Pfeiffer Beach does allow dogs.
United States of AmericaGorgeous location. Helpful staff. Valet car service to nearby restaurants. Daily happy hour featuring local wine & beer.
United States of AmericaLoved the premises and all the different baths - very peaceful and well kept. Staff was great. Food was surprisingly good - both dinner and breakfast. The view from our room (#18) was beautiful. Loved the reusable water bottle and all the water stations scattered around the premises!
United States of AmericaStunning location and property, staff were very kind and friendly. Hotel facilities were very clean and well maintained.
United Arab EmiratesThe staff is professional and quite friendly. The room was exceptional. I inadvertently booked two rooms when booking with Booking.com and Ventana was kind enough to Not charge me for the second room.
United States of AmericaThe premises are amazing, the true star of the stay. Amidst a beautiful forest with giant trees. The walks around the camping grounds and to the restaurant are beautiful. Just take the car out of the driveway and your nearby all the main sights of Big Sur, Pfeiffer beach, Big Sur Bakery, hiking spots etc.
NetherlandsStunning location with beautiful amenities. It’s a haven for you to switch off and enjoy the incredible scenery.
