With just 54 rooms and suites, Ventana has a lovely air of privacy and exclusivity. Attractive accommodations are scattered about in clusters over the large property and are designed to blend in with rather than take away from the natural surroundings. Exteriors are constructed from beautiful bleached Cedar, and nature continues to lend its influence within for a sophisticated yet rustic feel. High-ceilinged rooms are sumptuous and inviting with plenty of blonde wood, leather and stone. Lighting is warm and intimate, and crackling fireplaces add to the cosiness of it all. All accommodations come with private outdoor decks, and it’s a good thing, too: the views, unsurprisingly, are spellbinding. If you’d rather be even closer to nature, fear not: the resort boasts a number of utterly fabulous glamping tents for a luxurious twist on the quintessential outdoor experience.
Head to the Sur House at mealtimes, and you’ll be treated to the property’s very best views, which – given that natural beauty is literally everywhere you look – is certainly saying something. A delicious menu showcases the flavours of the region with cuisine that is elegant, rustic and hearty enough to fortify even the most ambitious hiker. Head to SurStream for hand-made pizzas, gelato and drinks served out of a custom mini Airstream, or enjoy an unforgettable private dinner with equally memorable views at Ventana Glass House
More breathtaking views can be found at the temple to wellness that is the resort’s Spa Alila; if you’ve ever wanted to be pampered while gazing out at the Redwoods and mountains, this is just the place to do so.
In a place like Big Sur, you’ll want to spend as much time outdoors as possible; thankfully, the resort has seemingly infinite ways to do just that. Try axe throwing, take a cold plunge in the river, go on a scenic hike, or – for an educational experience – opt for falconry classes, beekeeping introductions or foraging for your own food.

The expanse of Big Sur is awe-inspiring — and Ventana’s Big Sur Villas evoke a similar response, thanks to spacious bi-level accommodations with plenty of room to roam. Make yourself at home in the first-floor living room, lounge on the full-size sofa and light the wood-burning fireplace for rustic ambience. When it’s time to retire for the evening, head to the second-floor bedroom, where your king bed and an open-concept stone-lined master bathroom await. Private outdoor spaces on both levels provide the perfect setting for taking in stunning Big Sur views.

Wherever you find yourself, you'll enjoy dramatic views both inside and out. Relax in front of the wood-burning fireplace. Take a soak in your private outdoor hot tub. Revel with those closest to you. The Coast House is designed to feel just like a home away from home.
