    peaceful retreat
    amazing view
    disconnected dining experience
    overpriced portions
    limited food selection

    Staying in a fireplace guest room with a stunning canyon view offered the perfect blend of privacy and beauty. The luxurious bedding and intimate firelight created a magical atmosphere. Exploring the serene paths and enjoying the infinity hot tub were highlights, adding to the tranquil experience. However, the dining options felt disconnected from the overall charm, with lackluster portion sizes that didn't reflect the prices. It would benefit from a broader, more appealing menu to match the serene ambiance of the resort.

    relaxing ambiance
    attentive staff
    cheese and wine hour
    loud neighbors
    slow service

    Alila Ventana feels like a hidden gem where relaxation meets luxury—imagine lounging in a hammock while watching the sun dip behind the redwoods, all accompanied by a complimentary cheese and wine hour that would make even Dionysus jealous. The staff was as attentive as a golden retriever waiting for a treat, ensuring every request was met with a smile.

    dreamy hot tub
    helpful staff

    would like to stay longer

    The king suite with a hot tub was dreamy! It had air conditioning, a minibar, and a flat-screen TV. Loved soaking in the hot tub while surrounded by redwoods. Spa facilities included yoga classes and massages which were devine. The staff was super nice and helpful, making our experience more enjoyable.

    The king suite with a hot tub was an absolute dream! I loved glamping under redwoods, soaking in a sunset-lit jacuzzi, and relaxing by the cozy fire pit. after a long hike, the wine and cheese hour was the perfect treat!

    coastal trails
    exceptional dining
    kid-friendly activities

    I loved exploring the stunning coastal trails around the property, with breathtaking views from the cliffs and peaceful hikes under the redwoods. The dining experience was truly exceptional, and the cozy atmosphere made it perfect for a romantic getaway with my wife.

    My kids wished for more kid-friendly activities on-site.

    breezy hot tub
    wine and cheese hour
    soaking views
    overpriced food
    crowded pools

    The stay was a complete escape into nature. I especially loved lounging in the breezy outdoor hot tub, soaking in the views. The pre-dinner wine and cheese hour was the perfect way to unwind after a day of hiking nearby trails. However, the food was a bit overpriced, and the pools were often crowded during peak times.
