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.

Alila is a hidden gem in Bg Sur area. We love spending our birthdays there (our birthdays are consecutive). It’s surrounded by forest but has a great ocean view. I heard that “Ventana” means a “window.” Yes, Alila resort located in the forest with a great natural window to overlook the ocean. The room is very private. Cleaning service is spectacular. They do “turn down service” every evening which is rare in US. Most hotels in US has lost its service mind, but this hotel still has one. Best place to relax in the nature and do exercises like hiking and strolling in the forest. The pool is a great one too. Specifically the hot tub overlooking the forest is the best one. Very private and calm with great poolside dining service. This time was the second visit for our birthdays. We will go back next year to celebrate our birthdays too. The best!

This is our 3rd year in a row that we have stayed here on points. I am a globalist, and this is one of the top properties we have stayed at. The staff is fantastic, and they remember us from past visits. The food is exceptional, and the activities are awesome too.

The all inclusive operation is amazing. The rooms are fantastic. Special treats are added throughout stay. The service is top notch. The grounds are fantastic. The views are hard to beat. Highly recommend for the most romantic occasions.

Spending Thanksgiving week at Big Sur has made me grateful, once again, for being a Californian for most of my adult life. (I'm also grateful that the resort's policy is no tipping and no children). Alila Ventana Big Sur is a cross between The White Lotus and Restoration Hardware. Only 54 suites on 243 acres, with guests (from Hollywood & Silicon Valley) shuttled around in electric carts. It was built in 1975 with money from "Easy Rider" by producer Lawrence Spector, and it's been a coastal favorite ever since.

Perfect wellness retreat. We chose Alila Ventana for the annual trip for me and my long distance bestie and we enjoyed every bit of it. Nestled between the Redwoods and the Pacific Ocean, Alia Ventana transported us to tranquility. The food, activities we’re just perfect!

The hotel is the destination. There are a few things to do around Big Sur, but if you are staying here you're likely to spend most of your time in the resort. What's great? The staff, the rooms and the views are all amazing. The food is good. Why not 5 stars? The woodpeckers drove us nuts. The staff tried to shoo them away, but if you are offered room 58, think twice. The room design is awesome, but some rooms lack the absolute privacy that is expected in this price range. We've also stayed in the Post Ranch Inn across the street, and we both preferred the PRI. That said, I recommend this hotel also.
