The accommodation impresses with delightful amenities, friendly service, and luxurious rooms. Guests appreciate the pools, Japanese bath house, and in-room snacks. However, some may find the balcony views distracting.

The room is good, the climbing site is good, and the food is ok. Next time you have a chance, try the camping area. It is quiet and there are few people. The entire hotel park is suitable for family outings.

Such a beautiful, relaxing resort! The spa was absolutely amazing. We enjoyed some beautiful hikes around the property and within close proximity.

Ventana Big Sur, an Alila Resort, is a triumph of location and atmosphere. It delivers a peaceful and luxurious escape. We came back to visit our favorite spot along the highway 1 coastline. Service : aims for attentive yet unobtrusive luxury. Staffs are friendly, knowledgeable, and strive to anticipate needs. Check-in is smooth with two glasses of champagne offered at arrival. It’s prefect to pair up with mini charcuterie board in our room. Food and drinks: Sur house was amazing. We dining in for brunch and dinner. Even watched sunset outside with heating lamp on and blankets wrapped around. Yes Big Sur's microclimate means fog and cooler temperatures are common. The complimentary bubble cocktail :Marine layer is no longer offered. However daily complimentary experiences are still available like guided yoga ,morning coffee/tea service, evening wine/social hour, and s'mores by the firepit. I love the DIY bath salt / create your own soak at the main lobby. Even though there is some changes, Ventana Big Sur still justifies its status as one of California's premier destination resorts. We will be back. It’s all inclusive with premium price tag.

J’ai adoré ce voyage que j’ai commencé dans la forêt dans une tente de l’hôtel Ventana pour 2 nuits puis dans l’hôtel pendant 3 nuits.. le restaurant pour le petit déjeuner est tellement bon- je n’ai jamais mangé d’aussi bon petit déjeuner. Tout était merveilleux dans cet hôtel, et en même temps simple en pleine nature. Ça a été une expérience extraordinaire.

The stay at Alila Ventana Big Sur was relaxing. The room was specious with look of greens. Although they advertised the room as ocean view, but it was mostly block with plants. Although an All-inclusive resort, I found it quite boring at the hotel. We only sign up for redwood hike as there were fees for other activities. I do find the hotel does not utilize the property to its full potential, such that the loft is empty with only a pool table, The library is not open, the gym is super small with only one treadmill and very few equipment. Also, the only place to grab a coffee is at the restaurant or in room dining with $10 delivery fee. The food at sur house was okay, the view probably out-beat the food. It was also very weird to make s’more with a fireplace. I can say I had a relaxed two days trip because there was nothing to do basically. But the room itself was nice with the big tub. The housekeeper didn’t come for turndown on the second day but came knocking at 9pm. For an all inclusive experience like this, I’d rather take a cruise or go to Mexico.

Uno dei posti o forse il più bello che abbia mai visto. Una vista scioccante. Una bellezza dirompente. Il cibo é all-inclusive ed è buono, il prezzo per la qualità generale é meritato. La suite era magnifica. L’unica nota negativa é la palestra: per quel prezzo si potrebbe investire qualcosa in più sull’attrezzatura.

The food is not as good as it once was. They are clearly cutting costs to boost profits. They cut out the free marine layer cocktail at happy hour, and the dinner was not good. I went with a group of 4 people. We tried virtually everything on the menu. The food quality has just declined. There is no other way to put it. This was a huge disappointment, as we had looked forward to dining here all summer. The rooms are nice. The staff were fine. But the management decision to cut costs on food was a bad decision. Hopefully they fix the food. I will go elsewhere next summer.

My husband and I visited Alila Ventana Big Sur for the first time over a weekend for our wedding anniversary and it was absolutely wonderful and magical. The service was top-notch throughout and the resort itself is woven into the redwoods so you feel like everything is integrated well. The gorgeous walking around from one's room (we had a standard suite for our special occasion) to either the Sur House (restaurant), Social House, Spa Alila, etc., was very enjoyable and made for easy exercise. We did one of the complimentary activities (Coast Ridge Hike) and that was lovely. The all-inclusive food at Sur House and for in-room dining are delicious. Alcohol and other specialty items (like mocktails or alcohol-free beer) are not included, which is fine, but note that even though you'll intuitively write-in your own tips on those extra dining costs, they'll also add on their gratuity, so try to avoid double-tipping. Got an amazing couples massage for our wedding anniversary at Spa Alila and the views were jaw-dropping. Our masseuses were great and the cost was reasonable given the fact that it includes the gratuity (they explained it better). We also paid for another activity -- Summit Sips, which is a small-group guided hike where the guide also makes cocktails. Our guide, Riley, took us to a gorgeous beach cove that was a decent hike and not long. So memorable. We will absolutely be back!
