About the Hotel
There simply is not a time when the rugged, captivating coast of Northern California is anything but an extraordinary escape. On a clifftop overlooking blue expanse of the Pacific Ocean in Big Sur, Post Ranch Inn is a place of natural and intimate luxury, reflecting not only the beauty of its environs, but the quintessential relaxed attitude as well. With views of sea on one side, and mountains on the other, this property features organic architecture inside and out. Guest rooms are a study in rustic elegance, set in a series of small structures, with each space affording a scenic vista unlike any other. A king bed, wood-burning fireplace, indoor spa tub, and private deck will greet you, and indulgent touches like terry robes, slippers, and a complimentary mini bar offer even more reason to delight in this awesome getaway. Head over to Post Ranch Inn's award-winning spa for an out-of-this-world treatment, set in a room overlooking the surrounding mountains and ocean. From the Big Sur Jade Stone Therapy to the Organic Garden Facial or soul-soothing shaman sessions, this is truly a place of mind and body renewal.

Reviews for Post Ranch Inn
Where Peace meets the Horizon
Our stay at Post Ranch Inn was truly unforgettable. The sweeping 180-degree views of sunrise & sunset are breathtaking, and soaking in the jacuzzi while taking it all in felt magical. The service was warm and attentive, and the energy of the place is deeply calming. Our room, aptly named Peace, couldn’t have been more fitting. Traveling as a family of four from Singapore, having two rooms stacked above one another made us feel beautifully connected. Even the gift shop stood out, with an exceptional curation of rare treasures from around the world. A soulful, once-in-a-lifetime experience. ✨🙏🏽

Luxury at the edge of the pacific 🤩
Post Ranch Inn is the definition of quiet and intentional luxury. Perched high above the Pacific, this is the kind of place that resets your nervous system the moment you arrive. The room was comfortable, beautifully designed, and incredibly serene. The bed felt cloud like, the crisp egyptian linens, and space was curated to encourage deep rest. Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean and waking to soft natural light made it impossible not to slow down. The spa experience was nothing short of transformative. My massage and facial felt deeply restorative, unhurried, and perfectly aligned with the property’s philosophy of holistic wellness. Enhanced by the stillness and natural energy of Big Sur. Dining at Sierra Mar was an experience in itself with floor to ceiling views that made the ocean feel like part of the table. The overall stay was impeccable and truly unforgettable. I cannot wait to experience this again! ✨🌿🌊

Very nice experience Post Ranch Inn
The Post Ranch Inn was magical. The views were incredible and the staff was super friendly and always helpful. We stayed in a room surrounded by trees and also a view of the Pacific. The sunsets were incredible and the grounds had nice trails and 3 pools to chose from. We loved the nature that surrounded us, with deer walking nearby our room. We participated in the Healing Sound, complementary relaxing sound meditation. The whole trip was amazing

Beauty, peace, luxury
If you have the money and are willing to spend it on hotels, PRI is the best you can expect for the price. Every detail is well thought out, the place is beautiful, the rooms are luxurious and comfortable, and the architecture is gorgeous. The grounds are also really nice and great for hiking/walking. It really is the best hotel, hands down, that I have ever stayed in.

Just the best.
Hard to oversell how great this place is. Nature, hot tubs/pools, very quiet and exceptional customer service. Be sure to enjoy the trails and the sunsets!
