We had a lovely experience here and enjoyed the grounds and the room so much!!! There wasn't any cell service when we stayed but it was really nice being unplugged away from everything and the rooms were super spacious, clean, and had a really nice bathroom. I want to come back soon! read more

What a unique resort on Big Sur! We spent a few days here exploring the property & area around Cambria. No WiFi or cell service while on the property, but it was not a negative to be unplugged for a bit. Beautiful views from room, fireplace & deep tub was bonus (jacuzzi tub not working). The rooms were charming but could use a good cleaning - they allow pets & our room did have pet smell. Beautiful sunsets & lots of spots to enjoy the resort & garden. Staff were friendly, coffee shop & restaurant on-site as well as a small market w/gas. All in all a nice stay! read more

I absolutely adored our time here. We came right before Highway 1 reopened so we experienced a quieter Ragged Inn than probably exists now. First off, get your calls and emails done before you get here. You will have very spotty wifi and zero cellular service. Frankly, I rather loved that. It was so nice to be forced to disconnect. I laughed out loud watching my teenage son discover his phone no longer worked. The view is spectacular and stretches on forever. There really is no bad room view wise. There is a fire pit, a coffee shop, a nice restaurant and a very, VERY steep hike than I only recommend to those planning to be careful. Go at low tide or the beach disappears. Bring a book and enjoy the quiet. I'll review the restaurant separately, but it is great to have this on site so you aren't driving back to Cambria to eat out. read more

Ants. Limited hours, lots of amenities closed in peak season. The grounds are gorgeous. The restaurant is amazing (reviewed separately), the host was kind and informational... though, as he was giving his run down of all the things we needed to know as guests, it was quickly apparent that he was pretty much running the show with a skeleton staff. The general store "could be open if you need it" and he'd be the one to do it, but only takes cash. The snack bar: closed. The room. Double beds, who has those anymore? They were pretty tight for 4 adults, one had to sleep on the ground (brought a sleeping pad just in case for this reason). We were told they did not have rollaway beds, but as we were walking back to our room the next morning to leave, we saw they had at least 2? Not sure why that was kept from us. The bathroom in the room needs to be updated badly. Sitting on the toilet you notice ants wandering around on the floor; not one, but many. You pay for the views, I guess. From the room the view was great, and really makes up for 2 of the 3 stars, and the 3rd is the amazing iced oat milk latte I got at the cafe on the day we left. The girl at the cafe was very sweet, and the coffee hit the spot. Would stay here again, but I'm hoping maybe some updates can be done or maybe at the very least some pest control. read more

If you want gorgeous secluded views in a remote off grid area this is for you. A friend recommended this location after seeing it off the highway. Hotel: It's not far from Hearst Castle or San Simeon. I was informed that it is the unofficial entrance for Big Sur. Big property with gorgeous views of the ocean. We booked our reservation online. Around 3:00pm the same day I received a call from an unknown number. They left a voicemail stating that if I didn't update my CC within 3 hours my reservation would be given away. I quickly called back and sorted it out. I arrived at the hotel a little after 7:00pm. Checked in at the front desk. I was given 2 keys along with 2 parking passes. Oh and be advised, there is LITTLE TO NO CELL SERVICE OR WIFI. I went upstairs to the room, it was pretty cute. We had to jiggle the lock for the balcony. The curtain for the window wasn't secured properly and fell on my friend. The shower turns on by itself. Oh and while being a pet friendly hotel sounds like a plus. Be advised the walls are paper thin. You will hear every bark and scratch throughout the night. Food / Gas: We went to the restaurant to get some food. We waited about 20 min to speak with someone. By then we decided to order the food to go. I ordered mushroom soup and a ham & cheese croissant. Only thing I can say is don't order the mushroom soup. Disgusting dishwater looking substance. We went to the gas station they have onsite to see if there were any snacks. It's a limited selection and cash only. while it sound like only negatives, I will say the views are breathtaking. The property itself is gorgeous. Outdoor benches and seating to enjoy the views. I read that there are also firepits. I didn't partake in it but it's nice to know. read more

A unique opportunity to stay near the end of scenic highway 1. One of my favorite hotels with serene oocean views and walking paths in the gardens. It also has one of the best restaurants, holding up to the quality found in San Francisco and Carmel, with us proclaiming it our favorite meal after our trip to those stops. Rooms vary in views , and we have our favorites which I won't divulge because I want them available on our next stay since we stay here frequently. The complex has a gas station and a small store. A remote scenic place, and yet a favorite for destination weddings and special events. read more

A Breathtaking Family Escape - Ragged Point Inn, Big Sur Our recent stay at Ragged Point Inn with our two grandsons was nothing short of magical. Nestled on the cliffs just north of Big Sur, the inn feels like a hidden world where the views stretch forever and time slows down in the best way. From the moment we arrived, we were taken in by the natural beauty of the grounds. Towering trees, vibrant flowers, and sweeping ocean vistas made every corner photo-worthy. We took advantage of the nearby hiking trails, which led us to scenic overlooks and quiet moments by the coast--easy enough for the kids but rewarding for all of us. The weather was just right: crisp mornings, cool ocean breezes, and plenty of sun during the day. Sitting outside with a cup of coffee while watching the waves crash below was pure peace. Our room was clean, comfortable, and designed to showcase the view--opening the curtains each morning felt like unveiling a painting. The boys loved exploring the gardens and spotting wildlife along the cliffside paths. We had a lovely dinner at the restaurant, where the food was fresh and the portions generous. The coffee bar in the morning was a welcome touch, serving quality brews to enjoy with a view. The gift shop was a hit too--charming and well-stocked with local art, souvenirs, and snacks the boys couldn't resist. It's rare to find a place that appeals equally to adults and kids, but Ragged Point Inn struck that balance perfectly. Whether you're chasing adventure or just need a quiet place to reset, this spot delivers. Added notes: the front desk person graciously helped my wife with roll away beds for our grandsons and unfortunately we lost one of our key fobs during our trip and someone turned it in - they are very happily shipping it to me - wow! Five stars, hands down. We left refreshed, reconnected, and already dreaming about our next visit. read more

Our second stay at Ragged Point Inn was even more magical than our first. It's been about 15 or more years and all the things we loved here are the same, plus it's only gotten better. Our ocean front room was clean and fine for my hubby, our teen and me. I'm sure she would have preferred her own room but we barely spent any time there. We walked the grounds, photographed the view, relaxed and chilled in the incredible Big Sur air. Weather was perfect. Food at the restaurant was great! I enjoyed both breakfast (great avocado toast) and dinner. The koi in the pond are so friendly and went nuts for a bit of hand-fed bread! The views are exquisite - one could never tire of those cliff views. The gardens are lovely with hummingbirds galore. And kitties! Our teen was like a young girl again, running and playing with all the resort cats from sunrise to sunset. I can't wait to come back. I adore the sights, the sounds, the smell and the energy of Big Sur. Ragged Point Inn captures the best of all of it. read more

The Ragged Point Inn is renowned for its breathtaking "million-dollar view," offering not just stunning scenery but also great food and friendly people. What truly sets this place apart is its unique disconnect from the modern world, no Wi-Fi or cell service, allowing you to escape into a simpler time, far removed from technology. For those needing a connection, there's only a dial-up option available at the front desk. However, the most captivating aspect of this incredible destination is the inspiring story behind its creation as they mentioned in their site. It all began with Wiley and Mildred Ramey, a visionary couple who transformed a humble piece of land into the enchanting retreat it is today. Starting with a small motel, gas station, and snack bar, they worked tirelessly, often by themselves, attending to guests as if they were family. During Thanksgiving, when visitors arrived hungry and the snack bar was closed, the Rameys generously shared their own holiday turkey. Over the years, Wiley, Mildred, and later their children, worked diligently to grow the business, all while maintaining their deep hospitality and love for the land. What started as a two-room motel has now blossomed into a thriving property featuring 39 rooms, an expanded snack bar, a gourmet restaurant, a gift shop, an artisan jewelry shop, a coffee bar, and a mini-market. Today, the Rameys' legacy continues with their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren who carry forward the family's vision of warmth and hospitality. The story of the Ragged Point Inn began in the late 1950s when Wiley and Mildred, visiting California's Central Coast from their home in the San Joaquin Valley, stumbled upon a lonely stretch of Highway 1. Known for their love of scenic drives and Wiley's penchant for buying land they admired, the Rameys discovered a small outpost on the ocean side of the highway north of San Simeon. Once part of the vast Hearst Ranch, the outpost was little more than a snack shack with a neon "EAT" sign, a couple of rusty gas pumps, and a few travel trailers. Despite its modest appearance, the Rameys were captivated by the area's natural beauty. Determined to make it their own, they spent two years persuading the landowner, carnival man Monte Young, to sell the property. After acquiring it, they removed the "EAT" sign and built a modest two-room motel. This marked the beginning of the Ragged Point Inn as we know it today, a place born from love, determination, and a deep respect for the stunning landscape that continues to enchant visitors from around the world. read more

To the locals and maybe people looking to go here as well outside of the area-- the customer service here is horrendous with an immense lack of communication and care for their clients. You can apparently lose your room at a moments notice depending on their mood and if they remember to communicate. I had an understanding that they wanted locals to stay as well as foreigners, and that dogs were welcome. My stay made me question that as well as the competency of the staff and the business. I paid ahead an ocean view dog friendly room and Nancy had helped me get the breakfast included winter special. I was wanting my 13yo small dog to go so I had one pet and also have a service dog. This was for my birthday and I was excited to go. I told her then and three other times that I am interested in buying another night in the room but needed to make sure my partner wanted to do that as well and they were busy working so I was having to wait and wanted to make sure there wasn't a cutoff time. She and the other front office ladies never specified a cutoff time that I should pay for the room and said it was no problem we could let them know later the same day. When I got there, alone, on my birthday, with my service dog, I was greeted in such a cold manner despite me coming in friendly and excited for the stay. They rushed me through the checking in process and commented grumpily about my ADA Service Dog, and instead of asking what questions they are legally allowed to ask me about my service animal, they made me feel discriminated with rude gestures and comments acting like they knew all the alerts and tasks an ADA service dog will make to their specific owner with a disability the person /should not have to address, talk about, or feel the need to defend/. It did not stop there. I went to a nice birthday dinner in Cambria and my partner agreed to another night. I went in with him to the front office after dinner and told her we were ready to purchase and finalize the second night. She tells me they sold the room 20min ago and we would have to stay somewhere else. I'm at this point shocked and confused why there was no communication. I am not sure if it was discrimination on my age but she also said "well they are paying for 2 dogs and /you/ have a service dog so you're only paying for one dog" Visibly SHRUGS). At this point that's blatant discrimination but it's my birthday and all I had been trying to do was be nice to them. I literally do not understand the hostility besides it being discrimination and lack of good customer service skills and communication. After MUCH back and forth she finds another room that we will then have to move to the next day. ((In the middle of this she exclaims that she needs to call another person to let them know they could not stay in their room tomorrow and called and left a message for them at 9pm (who does this??)) and I took a mental note how she couldn't even call me to communicate about my room but had time to throw a fit in front of us and call a customer about theirs. This was INSANE. Oh it doesn't stop there. The next morning I wake up trying to make this a new day and a good trip that we could still salvage besides the fireplace clicking loudly all night, and I go to the restaurant to get breakfast and the staff asked for my breakfast voucher. I never received or was told about a voucher. I then had to have a waitress walk me to the front office and without looking up the woman tells me "no she does not get one!" At this point I'm like what is going on here we've paid a lot of money and she looks up and says "oh sorry I didn't see it was you" and then helps me get a breakfast voucher. We then moved to the other room in the afternoon and had a quiet stay in the smaller garden room for the rest of the time. They waived my pet fee for the next one night, but honestly for ruining a birthday and doing this to a local who was trying to support another local business, I will be telling friends and family about this experience. *Discrimination against a person using a service dog who is trained to perform tasks to assist with the persons disability and question them even when the dog was under control and doing its job, no disruptive behavior and with me at all times, and favor someone without a service dog and treat me differently, is a HUGE reason why I have made this one star so others who have actual service dogs can be made aware of this experience and a caution for the upper management to swiftly find a resolution for this illegal behavior from their staff. The views are great, the rooms are nice, I felt like the grounds were pet friendly, and the customer service is discriminatory, unorganized, dishonest, lacks communication and professionalism and needs to be reviewed and managed. Proceed with caution, one night stay might be the way to go. Really was hoping for a better stay than the one I experienced. read more

Finally went back for my husband's birthday. This place is so calming, but if you're looking for a lot to do, there isn't anything. They have a cute little gift shop, coffee, shop, and market. Some of the places were cash only. Gasoline was seven dollars plus a gallon but I guess it's because of where it's located. I asked for second story bedroom king size, and it was perfect. Left the door open a little bit so we could hear the waves at night. We took a walk around the grounds and bought a bottle of wine at the market along with a few crackers and sat down and relaxed. The bedroom is spacious and it has a fireplace. Our bathroom had two sinks, which was nice. I noted on there survey sheet that they needed some grab bars in the shower and also some towel bars. Coffee and tea are provided, and the coffee was pretty good. They also have a TV and you can sit out on the deck in some comfortable chairs just staring at the ocean. read more

What an amazing experience! This is definitely going to become an annual destination for us. First off, they are incredibly dog-friendly--truly dog-friendly. It's so easy to spend the day here with your furry friends. There's plenty of space to walk them around, and they're even welcome on the outdoor patio of the restaurant. Now, let's talk about the food. Everything we tried was fantastic, but the coffee bar and dinner menu were definite standouts. We also indulged in some amazing cake that was the perfect treat. As for the rooms, they were spacious with large patios that were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the day. The property itself has so much to offer. Not only were the views stunning, but between the restaurant with three separate menus, the coffee bar, a snack bar (closed during our visit), a store, and a gift shop, there was plenty to explore. It's the perfect place for a little staycation without ever needing to leave the property. I'll definitely be back! P.S. limited cell service. Plan to disconnect or use their wifi. read more

Positives: Beautiful Location. Grounds are lovely with an arbor for weddings, fire pit, gift shop (also check in) restaurant with very good food all three breakfasts and dinners. Staff in restaurant super nice and accommodating. We reserved a ground floor room no second story in our building. Liked the swing chair outside our patio of room #26 to watch the sunset. Good to have a heater/fan in the bathroom with bath/shower and toilet. Extra sink outside the bathroom. The bedroom/sitting room is heated up by an electric fireplace. The mini fridge in cabinet was very large! Also was a microwave and Kuerig coffee,tea,hit cocoa system. Christiana in the gift store was super friendly. Roberto our waiter in the restaurant was exceptional. Negatives: Room #26 mattress sucked! Our friend's room #29 had a medium Firm mattress which was more than acceptable. I do prefer a soft mattress, but this one even I sunk down way too much and I weigh 118 lbs. Unacceptable mattress. Needs to be replaced immediately. My poor husband weighs 170 so you can imagine what it was like for him. He doesn't like to complain . I should have the second day. There's a very large textured window next to the exit door that lets the outside lights shine in. No curtain or blinds to cover it with. The fireplace which is a nice change took a really long time to warm the room up, flames were whimpy even set to the highest. Our friend's room #29 was not. The pillows are all Polly fill . Good thing I brought my own down one. It would have been nice to have a lobby to sit in with a fireplace. All in All we were mostly pleased except for the things mentioned above. read more

Surprisingly good coffee shop at the southern end of the drive into Big Sur. You're not here for coffee. You drove this way for spectacular views. But you stop for a restroom and maybe a snack. Wait, is that a coffee place? With a Pistachio Rose Latte?? Ragged Point is a bit of an expected kind of test stop and inn along Ca-1. Everything we saw was $2-$5 more than it needed to be. Because *they can* out here with literally no competition. But, despite my cynicism this is a cooler-than-it-needs-to-be cafe with an explorable coffee menu. The line became long while we waited as the single worker take orders and made drinks. But the drink was worth the wait. There is no cell service and no wi-fi. So you'll have to wait to post your Yelp review :) Grab a latte and take the scenic walk behind the inn. You'll be happy you did! read more

Was here in July for a wedding. The view is gorgeous. But I don't think the hotels are worth the rate. It was $350 for a night for the cheapest room when I booked it 7 months before the wedding. There's not much do to at night there. And I feel like they don't really put an effort in to make it nice at night. There were a couple string lights in a corner. The restaurant closes really early, there's no bar, no fire pits. Nothing within walking distance. The bakery coffee shop is good. The restaurant is ok.

Stayed for 2 nights, on the positive side the setting is very scenic and the hike down to the black sand beach from the grounds was very fun. We enjoyed breakfast and one dinner at the inn. As far as the room, very basic. The receptionist tried to upsell us to a different room, but since we weren't spending much time in the room we declined. We asked her what was wrong with the garden room and she said nothing if you like looking at a wall....That kind of took us aback after driving 5 hours. She then proceeded to tell us the internet only worked sporadically which was true, if it worked at all. We could barely send a text which I find pretty unacceptable. These rooms on weekends off season are over 350.00 a night and for that price the internet should work. Additionally the restaurant and bakery closed at odd hours so when we got there at check in time everything was closed and there isn't anything within a half hour to grab food or a snack. I also found this pretty off putting. The hotel just really didn't seem that interested in guest comfort or experience. I would not stay again due to these factors, we would stay in Cambria where there are many options for dining and accommodations. If you don't need internet or any amenities nearby the ragged point inn is probably ok, and because we stayed during the week we did not pay the 350.00 plus for a room because it is most definitely not worth that. read more

Great place to stay on the coast, restaurant is very good and the staff are friendly. We hand an upstairs room with a great view.

Refund for third party cancellation done within cancellation policy took eight emails, two unanswered voicemails, and two front desk calls to retrieve. Unable to do trip due to emergency hospitalization. All other hotels refunded in spite of cancellation policy, they did not for the one night booked the day prior to hospitalization.

If you want a relaxing experience and a beautiful morning of sleep - this is NOT the place. Great location but terrible customer experience -- who runs this place? There is a complete lack of thoughtfulness for the guests. Who allows the landscaping to work early mornings on Saturday, weed wacking right outside your room for hours, and using the blower all morning -- right outside our room and balcony. My partner and I haven't been able to sleep at all since 7am. It's now 10am and this guy is still doing his thing right outside our room -- even after begging the front desk to have him relocate. I'm paying for this? I went to the front desk and friendly asked if they could have him stop, change locations or come back later -- and the guy at the front desk did absolutely nothing to help. He said "he does this everyday." My partner is furious. We came here to have a loving, relaxing and beautiful experience -- to rest and rejuvenate with each other and nature. And we are leaving more tired and exhausted. Management here does not care. Overall, I'm absolutely shocked that this place is managed this way and the service is so terrible. Don't waste your time or give them a penny. read more

Don't stay here! This place is so horrible. Just enjoy the view elsewhere. I got an ocean facing room because they said they were "pet friendly." What they don't tell you is that there is a pet fee that you have to pay over and above your room fee. When I told the woman that it was not ok that they are unclear about it, she told me to go back to the Central Coast (She had my address in front of her). Way to treat locals. Then our bathroom doorknob broke and we we're locked out of the bathroom. It took an hour for maintenance to check it out and they basically told us not to close the door for fear of being locked in/out. They have no room service, so if you're staying at the hotel, you have to go to the restaurant, order your food and then sit there waiting for it. For breakfast they told me it was a 20 minute wait even though there was hardly anyone there and plenty of tables open. As if to add to this cruel joke of this excursion, the alarm in our room went off at 6 o'clock in the morning, waking up our toddler. So that was really fun too. I rarely splurge for trips because I can't really afford it. This was an important trip for me. I'm so sad that this is what I had to deal with while I was here. I will also say that their staff is really rude, but I was rude too because of the poor service. You can tell people don't care to work here. read more

The views from this hotel are amazing. The price you paid is not cheap but the quality of the place is mid. We had a late check in. So we didn't get to see anyone at the lobby. We had a garden view room L9. We had no garden views. The room is bloblocked by some bushes and the area smell terribe. In the room you find a coffee maker, a bed, a heater, TV and refrigerator. The water pressure was good, the bathroom only had one roll of toilet paper. The next morning we met the staff and they were polite and greeted us. The restaurant closes is open from until 8 pm so come prepared to not have late food. It's decent for the price and the beautiful area. However, it is very old read more

We just got back from a one night stay at ragged point and we were blown away! Scenery? Epic. Romantic photo ops? So many. (They have their own lock fence) Room views? Unparalleled Vibes? Immaculate Staff? Friendly, attentive and informative. There is a restaurant on grounds. We only had breakfast but it was affordable, fast and well prepared. Hearst castle and elephant seal viewing just 10/20 minutes away Hike to beach from grounds ( we didn't make it down, trail is a little rough and we didn't have the right shoes, or the energy if we are being by honest. But the views from the top are IG worthy) Make sure to check caltrans before you drive. It didn't affect us from LA but the highway was closed from a wash out about 15 miles north of the inn. Internet/service can be a little spotty, but it is most places in this area and they have an Ethernet port to hook up to and a computer if you need it for work. I didn't have any major issues but they do let you know this at check in. Special shout out to the staff. Cristiano was awesome and even let us into the gas station to buy tums when it was closed because we are old and heartburn is the worst. The day porter, whose name I didn't get, was dealing with LITERALLY the WORST old man when we were checking out and was so polite and did it with a smile on her face. (Good job girl I could never) If I could give more than five stars I would. 10/10 recommend for your next vacation read more

Ragged Point Inn is such a wonderful place to experience the Big Sur vibe. If you are about to drive up to Monterey on Hwy 1, or have just made the drive south, I heartily recommend that you include the Ragged Point Inn in your travel plans! If you have a few days to spare, this is a perfect place to base yourself to explore this little known part of Central California. Think Hearst Castle, Mission San Antonio or Fort Hunter Liggett's Hurst Hacienda Lodge. Sitting on a cliff above the Pacific, the views are wonderful and the grounds beautiful. There is a convenience store, gas station and burger joint for those in a hurry to get on with their trips. For those who choose to travel more leisurely and enjoy themselves, a night at the Ragged Point Inn is much recommended. Most rooms are modern, roomy and have spectacular views of the ocean, mountains or grounds. There are spacious grounds to stroll about in. The restaurant on site is one of my favorites. The meals I have had there are delicious and well prepared and presented. The staff are friendly and helpful. The prices are very reasonable to say the least! Looking forward to my next stay here. read more
