We had a lovely stay, enjoying the stunning setting and varied outdoor experiences. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, offering a nice touch of luxury. However, the food experience fell short of our expectations for the price, especially given that alcoholic beverages are not included. The service had its moments, notably the efforts from staff, but the communication left something to be desired at times.

Staying at this hotel felt like a dream with breathtaking views of the redwoods and the ocean. The rooms were stunning and cozy, with thoughtful details that made our stay special.

Our experience at Ventana highlighted both the beauty of the surroundings and the challenges of service and dining. The glamping site was charming but lacked essential amenities for the price, while our hotel room was a significant improvement. Dining experiences were hit or miss, with a rushed atmosphere and insufficient breakfast options. Overall, the location is stunning, but there are areas needing attention.
