Reviews for Alila Ventana Big Sur
Alila is a dream come true!
Words cannot describe Alila. The setting is beautiful, the staff is excellent, the food was 5-star and they offer many great experiences beyond the resort. I've traveled the world and I can honestly say the Alila is in the top 5 of my list.

Beautiful property. Not worth the price for standard room.
Nice property but rooms have horrible sound proofing between floors. I know the hotel cant control what people are doing at 1am but it makes for a rough night if they are walking around for any amount of time. For a very nice hotel they need to address this. Room had a large leak that was very close to soaking all of my luggage which would have been miserable. Luckily we caught it and I moved my suitcase and put a bucket under it.

Wonderful Babymoon Stay at Alila Ventana Big Sur
An amazing stay that the staff went above and beyond for our Babymoon. The property was beautiful and would highly recommend a stay here.

Peaceful Big Sur stay of a lifetime!
This hotel resort is beyond compare! I chose it because I was longing to stay in a forest setting with ocean views ~ and was it ever! The hotel rooms, staff and restaurant are all really excellent, on par with a natural setting that is beyond compare. I will be dreaming of my next stay, and plan to stay longer!

Ventana was the perfect spot...this resort is easily one of the most romantic places in Big Sur. The on-site spa is relaxing and comforting - everyone is knowledgeable, skilled and highly professional. Ventana is luxurious, romantic and fun. We'll be back!
