Went to Ojai Valley Inn after meeting up with some friends for breakfast and someone recommended checking out their spa! WOW, such a little slice of sanctuary. We came on a Saturday early afternoon and started at one of their restaurants. The food was amazing, but service was definitely on the slower side. The resort is huge and has so many activities tennis, golf, bike rentals and more. After that, we headed over to the spa and spent the rest of the day relaxing by the pool. The vibe was so calm, mostly women just chatting, unwinding, and enjoying each other in this peaceful little paradise. We ordered smoothies poolside and omg...so fresh and refreshing. Service at the spa pool was great, everyone seemed to be working together seamlessly and checking in often without being overbearing. Definitely one of those spots I'd come back to anytime I need a reset from LA. read more

I hate to write this... I brought my sister and mom here over the weekend for lunch. (We had reservations) The service was horrible. The waiter was nice when he was around . It took a long time to receive our food we had to ask for refills and rolls. People that arrived after us received their food in a more timely manner. The food wasn't that exciting! Normally the menu is so inspiring I found it to be generic. In the reservation I mentioned it was my sister's bday nothing was done or acknowledged. The bathrooms needed servicing even another guest mentioned it. I'm really so sad normally this is my go to place! The grounds were beautiful as always. The shuttle driver was a very attentive & kind young man I'd give him 5 stars. I give it a maybe because I know they can be better I've experienced it several times before. Hopefully just an off day.

We went to the spa at Ojai for a girls day. We had massages and just hung out for most of the day. It was wonderful and very relaxing. The pools, saunas, and rest areas were clean and cozy. We did a yoga class before the massage and it was really nice and relaxing. I felt like it set my body up for a good massage. The waiting area before the spa service was one of the more impressive areas, otherwise everything else seemed standard. There were comfortable and cozy couches, light snacks, and cucumber water. I had a massage with Sharmilla and it was amazing - the best massage I've ever had! I think I just got lucky with someone that I liked. I've had plenty of massages at nice spas, but it's really just a compatibility issue. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit to Ojai. The compound was beautiful and it was a really nice place to visit for a girls reunion. The spa area itself was nice, but not particularly special or any more luxurious than a standard spa. I thought the toiletries were slightly lacking and I didn't like the products (soaps and shampoos). I think my expectations were a little high; given the reputation, but it was a still a very nice visit and we really enjoyed our time! read more

You know right this review with a very biased three stars because I live here. But the reason why I don't give a five stars because of the same exact reason. I don't understand how a humongous facility like this doesn't give local some sort of discount to eat there to have ice cream play golf there or whatever. Instead, you get charged the same price as someone that's coming from out of state or from LA. I feel like they should consider treating the local people with some sort of discount because I can't afford anything there to be honest with you. Ice cream is probably the only thing I probably could even that is too expensive just to have versus going into the arcade and getting it much cheaper. Very disheartening. I went there tonight to take pictures of my daughter at prom and it was hard to watch because at the end of the day place is beautiful, but they only cater to the people that have big bank account accounts. read more

Terrible menu We have gone here for over 30 years it was nice now horrible / poor food wacky prices rip off clip joint Very poor menu limited lunch choices expensive and not good! Shame. They have poor service asked sauce on side ... they forget. Just fattening buttery muffin bread no option. Birthday they deliver crummy cookies that tasted packaged .. no charm Outrageous price for spa $350 massage! No i would never pay that and $150 I recollect to have entrance for day! It is not that great been there Looked in gift shop.. for mediocre women jeans $350!!! Value $125 ... they feel fake foundation customers would pay that? Rip off Landscape use to be great now it's basic/routine boring so Hurley don't get landscape bill Sad ojai valley in used to be fantastic now it is just a boring clip joint but with crummy food and service Don't go / ritz Santa Barbara for spa and restaurants better don't be disappointed read more

The name Ojai is most commonly believed to mean "moon," derived from the Ventureño Chumash word awhay. It's a name that feels soft and celestial--fitting for a place that has long drawn artists, seekers, and quiet romantics under its dusky pink skies. Some interpretations expand the meaning to "nest" or "valley of the moon," speaking to the sheltering shape of the Ojai Valley itself. One lesser-known theory even links the name to the Sanskrit meaning of "brightness" or "brilliance," though this is a beautiful coincidence rather than a linguistic fact rooted in the land. Still, each meaning resonates. Moon. Nest. Brightness. All speak to the feeling of arrival when you find yourself there. Just off the main road into town lies Ojai Valley Inn--hidden in plain sight, tucked behind an unassuming frontage road. You'd never guess what unfolds around the bend: a place where history, luxury, and intention live in quiet harmony. As you arrive, the landscape shifts. A few historic homes sit like resting elders on the land, whispering stories of a slower, simpler time. Ahead, rolling fairways and ancient oaks mark your entrance into leisure. The Inn's signature white Spanish adobe architecture glows under the California sun--its brilliance a reflection of both preservation and pride. When the Ojai heat climbs toward triple digits, that white wash feels protective, even reverent. And within the walls? Every comfort is considered. Multiple restaurants, pools, a world-class spa, fitness center, and endless tucked-away corners invite you to stay all day... and never leave. Don the plush white robe and slippers embroidered with the estate's crest. Cruise the grounds in a golf cart chariot, stopping at shaded pickup points where staff greet you like old friends on a timed rhythm. Every detail, accounted for. The main adult pool is a scene--equal parts glamour and groundedness. Sunlight skips across the saltwater, highlighting the shimmer of skin: young, seasoned, and everything in between. Cocktails arrive like clockwork, balancing indulgence with elegance. But this isn't just a pretty place--it's a feeling. Of retreat. Of reflection. Of celebration. It's where you come to let go of time, shed what weighs you down, and reconnect with what brings you joy. Whether you believe Ojai means moon, nest, or brilliance, the truth is--it's all of those things. It holds you. Illuminates you. Gives you space to breathe and bloom. The Ojai Valley Inn captures that magic in every detail, down to the soft robe against sun-kissed skin or the way the air seems to hush as twilight sets in. Come for the quiet. Stay for the glow. read more

If you just want to come and enjoy the scenery then it's great but if you expect any sort of service this isn't the place for you. For the amount of money a room costs I would expect them to be able to call you a cab, etc. but they were unable, or perhaps unwilling, to do anything extra at all like other high-end places. ( I have a broken foot so I really needed that cab). Anyway, keep driving north and stay in Santa Barbara! read more

I was disappointed. They put me in a room in Los Padres that was close to the surprisingly noisy Hwy 33. And there were mosquitoes. When I asked to change rooms, the front desk put me in a room directly below the Party Pavilion in Shangri-La (Thumpa, Thumpa, Thumpa). The only recourse was to leave early. (and BTW, changing rooms is a hassle). So no serenity, no healing. read more

Wow what a beautiful resort with exceptional service. We had a wonderful time staying Valentine's weekend. The place was huge and there's so much to do. They have golf, tennis, yoga, spa, great restaurants, a gym, pools, jacuzzi & lots of activities. You can easily stay at the resort the whole time but there's also things to do outside the resort. Nearby there's museums, balsamic vinegar & olive oil tasting, honey tasting, restaurants & shops. They have shuttles that constantly run to take you around the resort since it's so big. House keeping checked in on us 3x a day. And they helped bring our bags into our room while we were at the spa. And they helped pick up our luggages & put them in our car the day we checked out. If you have Amex, they have early check-in, late check-out, $100 credit & daily $35 breakfast credit per person. This resort is kid friendly and dog friendly. It's pricey but luxurious, beautiful & relaxing. read more

The wife and I came to the Ojai Valley Inn for a nice dinner at Olivella and the pink mountains evening view. We got more than we expected! We were early for our reservation so walked the grounds. We wanted a cocktail before dinner. So the nice gentleman at the gift shop let us know the wallace & neff bar next to the restaurant we were going to was open. We met the bartendar Ron he served up some great cocktails and recommend the Anjeo Codigo 1530 reposado (great recommendation!). He and the other bartendar (tall gentleman) were so nice and let us know what to order ate Olivella. We moved over to the restaurant and everyone from the hostess to the wonderful server Alana and her team made us feel as though we were the only ones there. The blue fin tuna starter tasted as if they pulled it from the ocean that evening, rigatonio and branzino excellent! I would come back for that mill & honey dessert any day of the week straight up delicious! Cocktails: Old Fashioned and Tangerine Side Car were really nice! I appreciate that we never had to look up for service. They were there but not in a way to bother you . Rather to ensure your dining experience was one that you left statisfied but planning for your return as you were leaving. Please make an effort to go to these two places if you have the time. read more

My sisters, niece, & I recently stayed at the gorgeous Ojai Valley Inn and we had the best time. Chelsey & Khloe were amazing and fun with the Beekeeping activity & honey tasting! Javi greeted us with a huge smile and drove us to the restaurant via a golf cart ( the property is huge & beautiful). We also, want to thank Marissa for the wonderful hospitality, excellent customer service, & for making our sister Birthday so memorable and special! We will definitely recommend Ojai Valley Inn to our family, Friend's, & colleagues. Thank you, Rosie read more

It's a BEAUTIFUL hotel with golf, tennis and swimming, so five stars for the location, but ultimately really wanted a peaceful night's rest and a hot shower and got neither. Our room was right below a noisy family with little kids, so lots of running, jumping, and crying from upstairs. Not the best atmosphere for a romantic anniversary get-away. The shower was also disappointing as the water was lukewarm at best. I DID speak to the manager who was nice enough to take a few bucks off the bill due to the noise, but that's not the point. I can't get my anniversary back. I shouldn't be at a high end resort yet anxious to return home to the peace and quiet of downtown L.A. where the sirens and yelling from the street let me sleep better than I did at the Ojai Valley Inn. read more

Ojai Valley Inn - Private firepit patio for our room! - Hotels Near Me - Ojai, California

beautiful property and friendly staff. The oak restaurant was underwhelming for our group of 5, no one loved their meal. And very few vegetarian options. Pool service was great day one and super disappointing day 2. I asked for help with an umbrella and waited almost 40'minutes before having to ask again. I also think they could improve on the shuttle services, and create a system where you don't have to call the main line every time you need a shuttle. The property is gorgeous. read more

I stayed here with my partner last summer and everything went as wrong as possible. I was injured by their masseuse named Emily Zink, she may still works there. Don't let her touch you. She caused me $40K in medical bills for a neck injury and possibly permanent occipital neuralgia. I made a video https://youtu.be/6hpLp12hjTs?si=Y6zUG1ZgM7HfXmSe My partner had a necklace go missing... we got it back but I had to call multiple times. It was taken off a towel hook in the bathroom. read more

While nice, this resort needs some serious lessons in guest services and communication, especially when there is a problem. If it wasn't for their concierge staff who helped plan our trip and he staff in the craft cottage, I would give this resort 1 star. There was a problem with our room. We were there for a week. I never heard from management nor was there any follow through from the front desk as promised. We were STUCK! At this price point, this is unacceptable. And while I would like to return, I won't because, if I am going to spend this type of money, I want it to be worth it and I want full use of my room. read more

My wife and I spent a magical few days at Ojai Valley Inn to celebrate her birthday, and it exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we arrived Sunday afternoon until we departed late Tuesday, everything--from the personalized service to the luxurious amenities--was perfect. We stayed in the Spa Penthouse Suite, and it was truly something special. The suite featured soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an expansive layout that made it feel like our own private retreat. We had sweeping views of the resort and one of the serene spa pools, and the atmosphere was quiet, peaceful, and exactly what we needed to unwind. Every detail--from the plush bedding to the curated in-room amenities--reflected the Inn's commitment to luxury and comfort. On Sunday, we kicked off the celebration with The Oak's Bluegrass Brunch. This is not your typical brunch--live bluegrass music, fresh California-inspired cuisine, and the most relaxing setting under the oak trees. It was a beautiful and vibrant way to start the trip. That evening, we celebrated my wife's birthday at Olivella, the Inn's signature fine dining restaurant. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make the night special. The service was impeccable, warm, and personalized, and the food was truly world-class--thoughtfully plated and bursting with flavor. They even added thoughtful birthday touches that made the evening unforgettable for my wife. It was elegant, romantic, and a memory we'll both cherish for years to come. On Monday night, we returned to The Oak and shared their massive 40oz Tomahawk Ribeye--hands down one of the best steaks we've had. It came with incredible sides like roasted mushrooms, potatoes, and grilled asparagus. Every bite was cooked to perfection and full of flavor. We also indulged in room service, which was consistently fast, courteous, and delicious--ideal for enjoying a quiet breakfast or snack in our suite. During the day, we explored some of the many activities the resort has to offer. We booked horseback riding through the concierge at Oso Ranch, just a short drive from the property. It was a peaceful ride through beautiful terrain and added a fun, adventurous touch to the trip. We also enjoyed time at the Ojai Spa, where we both had incredible massages in a calm, nurturing setting. The spa grounds themselves were just as impressive--tranquil, beautifully designed, and ideal for relaxing. The adult pool was a favorite spot for us to unwind, and the poolside service was prompt and friendly. Fitness is important to both of us, so it was great to have access to their 24-hour gym, which was fully equipped and spotless. We even spent some time at the driving range and admired the 18-hole championship golf course--lush, scenic, and incredibly well-kept. It's easy to see why it's one of the top courses in California. Every single staff member we encountered--from the concierge to housekeeping to the valet team--was kind, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. The valets were especially attentive and even took the initiative to charge our EV while we were out enjoying the property. There's something truly special about Ojai Valley Inn--an effortless blend of luxury, relaxation, natural beauty, and elevated service. Whether you're there for a romantic escape, a celebration, or a rejuvenating wellness retreat, they have everything you need for an unforgettable experience. This was the perfect birthday getaway, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. read more

The property is amazing. If you haven't been before, it's a must whenever you're in Ojai. Even for a drink or a meal. The beautiful drive to the front of the property, and then greeted by the valet. Or if you choose to self park. Everything about this property is amazing. There's loads of spots that you can lounge and just enjoy the moment. Seating throughout the property, along the course, near a fire pit and so on. Drinks and food is great wherever you choose to grab a bite. And not the miss the sunset, pink hour I believe they call it. Grab a drink and just enjoy the sunset. And they're pet friendly, which is a plus. read more

We came to the Ojai Valley Inn to celebrate our anniversary, and while the beauty of the property is truly something special, it was the incredible service that made our evening unforgettable -- especially thanks to Kenya, the host, and Rudy, our server. From the moment we arrived for dinner, Kenya welcomed us with such warmth and enthusiasm that we immediately felt like VIPs. She congratulated us on our anniversary in the most genuine and heartfelt way, and it was clear she had gone out of her way to make the evening feel personal and celebratory. Her energy was radiant and so thoughtful -- she truly made us feel seen and special before we even sat down. Once seated, Rudy took wonderful care of us. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and kind, walking us through the menu and offering excellent suggestions that made the meal feel curated just for us. Every interaction felt effortless yet intentional, and we were never rushed -- just completely at ease and in good hands. Kenya and Rudy were the perfect team -- their care and attention to detail elevated our experience beyond anything we could've hoped for. It wasn't just a dinner; it was a memory we'll hold onto for a long time. If you're celebrating something special -- or just want to feel like you are -- you'll be in the best hands here. Thank you Kenya and Rudy for making our anniversary so magical. read more

We have been coming to Ojai Valley Inn for 10 years and now with kids our trips have become more frequent, multiple times a year. It has become our go-to place to spend weekends and/or a week (Spring Break). Golf: Beautiful course and challenging enough. Camp Oak: our eldest is 4 years old now and he loves it. Spends half a day (though they have camp all day if you want) then we go off and do other things. Pixie Pool (kids pool): usually not too busy but worthwhile for a cabana in the Summer. Wish it were warmer like the adult pool, Indigo. The Oak: primary restaurant. Book ahead of time since it gets busy. Olivella: book ahead of time for a fancy multicourse meal adventure. Spa: stay there all day if you can The Farmhouse: plan ahead of time if your trip can be there during one of their dining experiences. There's plenty more I could say if I had time. It's great, tons of things to do regardless of your phase in life. Holidays are especially fantastic for the kids. This should be 5 stars but looking at the reviews it seems to be skewed down for one off bad experiences and/or lack of planning. This place is a gem. read more

We had brunch with friends at the Oak restaurant. It was a pleasant setting even on a hot day. Food was decent & juices were good. We had the green ones (with cucumber & celery) & the orange ones (with carrots). Coffee comes with some of the breakfast & Brunch items. Blueberry pancakes were good without being overly sweet. Omelets, eggs Benedict, traditional breakfasts, & healthy option omelet were all good & well presented. The inn itself has a lot of history & is a pretty place to stroll around before or after a meal. It was a hot day but still had many people in the restaurant & on the gold course. Definitely recommend this restaurant & inn. The nightly rates are high so I don't see myself staying here, especially when I live only about 100 miles away, but will be back for brunch. read more

High ticket luxury but worth it. Such a lovely location can't be beat! The restaurant experiences are top shelf too.

This place is weird. For what you pay you expect it to be absolutely top notch. I will say this the staff is super friendly, they remembered my name and said the right things. That is where all the good ends. The actual service is atrocious. 1. The housekeepers are terrible. Because no one came to pick up my room service tray even after calling I carried it out to leave in front of the room but in doing some one plate fell and shattered by the door with glass going everywhere including the bathroom. When this happened one of the house keepers was actually walking by, she immediately got a broom so we assumed she would clean it. We were on our way out to dinner. Well we came back 2 hours later the only thing different was the beds were made , glass was still everywhere as if she did nothing. One top of that one of the pillows had a stain on it, looks like dried fruit hell it could have been blood who knows. I have had to call the front desk atleast 5 times because they either didn't clean the room, didn't leave fresh towels or toilet paper or didn't pick up the room service trays. 2. The food is extremely hit or miss , the service at the oak tavern was god awful , our meal took over an hour to come and the scallops were horrible, like they were boiled not seared and extra fishy. The dish came with 3 and some polenta. I ate half of one and felt like I would be sick and didn't touch the rest, it was like 47-50 bucks. Didn't bother complaining it would take another hour to even address the issue. 3. The grounds are beautiful but there was just the bad storm and I heard there was even a power outrage at the property. On the golf course you could see actual trees blown over yet they kept the course open but for some odd reason they closed the driving range. There was no issue with the driving range but I think they closed it to force people to play the course instead because they could make more money but the course was full of blown over trees it made absolutely no sense.... One of the troller drivers told me when the power went out it was for 12 hours and a lot of guest left and had to get refunds I'm sure they needed to make their money back some how. 4. The Christmas tree looks amazing but remember how I said there was a bad storm, well said storm damaged a lot of the ornaments on the tree causing them to fall and shatter all over the ground. Every day kids are around the tree playing and rolling in the grass. Last night the kids were playing football and my nephew fell on the grass and almost had his face cut up by a broken ornament. It makes absolutely no sense how a supposed 5 resort does not clean up or block off an area because of this issue. It's like they just care about getting as many people here to make money. We basically have decided that we will never come back here, the staff is nice really nice but that can only take you so far. The service is terrible, the food is not that great (mind you they supposedly have world renowned chefs come in and do cooking classes, none were scheduled for this week the we are here) and although the property looks amazing the issues with the upkeep and cleanliness are absolutely alarming. I am sitting in my room typing this now, I check out tomorrow. I've read a lot of reviews before I wrote this and the consensus is the service has gone down hill, I wouldn't have written this review but since so many people are saying the same thing I hope the management takes a look and makes some changes. I had stale pretzel bites for Jimmy Pub last night, Jesus Christ how do you mess up pretzel bites man. read more

I treated myself to a New Year facial at the Ojai Spa and unfortunately I would not recommend the experience. I called after to try to understand why the side of my hair above my ear had been shaved!!!. It took three calls and a voicemail and when I finally spoke to someone was told leadership would have to call me back when I heard a voicemail from leadership a couple of days later I was told that I had a "reaction" to their service. The only reaction I had was expecting that a $350+ facial would leave me a smooth face not stubble hair growing over my ear for new years that is still uncomfortable for no reason. Poor service poor leadership follow up claiming to be 5 star service. Disappointing read more

Terrible experience -- extremely disappointed. The staff was not nice at all: unfriendly, cold, and unprofessional from the start. There was no genuine hospitality and no effort to make guests feel welcome. What makes it worse is that an upgrade was supposed to be provided / was clearly stated, but it was not honored. Also, the complimentary service/item that should have been included was not brought until we asked -- and we had to push for it. The atmosphere was awful. The room/space felt damp, and guests literally smelled like humidity/mold. The entire vibe was unpleasant and uncomfortable. And unfortunately, the food was just as bad. Breakfast was terrible -- the oysters tasted old and not fresh at all. For a place trying to position itself as upscale, this is unacceptable. Not recommended!!!!! read more

One of my favorite resorts in Southern California for a quick getaway. Ojai is a beautiful small city located in Ventura county. I absolutely love coming here year after year either for a daytrip or an overnight stay. I always chose Ojai Valley Inn cause it's the best . The perfect location with great amenities. The resort is very relaxing, with a wonderful spa, restaurants, coffee shop and bars. The pool areas are nice and fun to be at. The summer months are great here but have slightly higher rates per night. The spring and the fall season is beautiful with great landscaping and lots of activities for families. The food at the restaurants is fresh and delicious . Customer service is great. Overall a wonderful place to stay at any time of the year. read more

The Ojai Valley Inn will cost you your left nut, but it's worth it. It's a little oasis where you can breathe. Time moves slow, as it is meant to. The Good: Khaled, the concierge, is actually the GOAT. So helpful at all hours of the day. My boy fr always on the clock. Anything we needed, Khaled was there. I LOVE a great concierge. The Ojai Valley Inn is a part of the hills at this point. It's built into the mountains. It compliments nature. It reminds me of the fictional Monadnock Valley in Ayn Rand's "The Fountainhead." It's a place where man and nature can coexist, with man giving meaning to nature, and nature being incomplete without man. This staff is the LeBron of turndown service. Wow. The room would be SPOTLESS, and the real highlight was my corded headphones and chargers would be wrapped up beautifully in this little Ojai Valley Inn wire holder thingy. It was unreal. Damn it's nice to be spoiled sometimes. Breakfast buffet was PHENOMENAL. I legit had 2 omelettes from the omelette guy, along with 2 other full plates. It put me in a straight food coma, but so worth it. You can buy a cocktail from Jimmy's Pub and take it anywhere on the property. It's a little oasis. A little slice of freedom. Everyone is trying to regulate everything nowadays, so this was a breath of fresh air. The Bad: The pickleball/tennis guy SUCKED. We were frustrated that we had to pay $10 to rent "court shoes" (that other peoples feet had clearly been sweating profusely in) as it was, but he became straight up combative. He legit said, and I quote, "Statistically, pickleball is the most dangerous sport in the world. I just give you facts." I thought him and my pops were gonna throw hands at one point lol. We canceled the rest of our pickleball reservations after the first one solely because of him, and this family LOVES pickleball. It was completely out of line with the rest of our experience. When we got to knowing other people at the resort, they started talking about how unprofessional he was without us even bringing it up lmao. The Conclusion: It's magical here, but y'all gotta talk some sense into homie running the pickleball courts. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more

We went to Ojai Valley Inn for a spa day, or really, a spa afternoon. We were so pressed for time that we didn't have a chance to fully enjoy the facilities. If we had more time, I could have stayed at the spa all day...or for forever. The spa facilities were great. In addition to the standard hot tub, steam room and sauna, they also had an infrared sauna. The infrared sauna is small (two people max!) but it's hard to stay in there for too long so the wait isn't very long. The facilities in the changing room are also great with everything you could need to get ready post-spa. I had a relaxation spa, but my masseuse, Patricia, noticed that it had gone from a deep tissue to a relaxation massage so she wanted to know what I really wanted and was open to adapting her style. She also used aromatherapy (included with the massage) which I don't care for much but she did a wonderful job explaining what the different aromas were and how they would be used during the massage. The massage was great, particularly the head and neck massage. read more

One of the most beautiful and magical properties that I have ever stayed in. It was easily one of the most relaxed stays I've had across my travels. The place is spectacular and well maintained. (My room was a little dusty.. but after a night or two it got much better.) The service is top notch and some of the best I've seen. The staff is attentive and kind. The grounds are stunning... just walking around brings a sense of peace and immersion into the local area. There are also a lot activities to do on site so you technically don't have to leave the property (nor do you want to). I would absolutely stay here again. The price is steep but it actually is one of the few hotels that is worth it. read more

We took an escape from the beach, where we live, for the tsunami warning. We had our dogs with us, of course, and made the reservation online. It was dark when we checked in and I had a hard time seeing how to walk to concierge from self parking because the landscape lighting is more for ambiance than brightness. Valet wanted to park our car, but with the dogs in the car, we opted to self park to check in. They gave us a room on the ground floor, great for dogs. Finally found the building for our room in the dark. It was nice with a fireplace and bordered patio outside. Would enjoy a repeat trip there but with the two dogs at $350 apiece pet fee , the cost is prohibitive. The room charge is expensive by itself. With the cost aside, this is a beautiful place to stay. I'm giving a four rating because of the lighting issue for me. read more

Ojai Valley is a beautifully maintained and peaceful property nestled among the mountains.The resort offers golf cart transportation around the grounds, with friendly drivers enhancing the experience. While the check-in process was somewhat lengthy, the overall service at the restaurants and housekeeping was consistently polite and attentive. The breakfast buffet and dinner options were both enjoyable. This destination is perfect for a family weekend getaway, many activities for kids and a well-maintained pool. However, there is room for improvement in service around the pool area. read more
