Fresh from a $100-million renovation, Ojai Valley Inn & Spa joined the ranks of the AAA Five Diamond Award winners in 2007, and again in 2008. The distinction reaffirms the treasured status that the California resort has long held among celebrities, spa aficionados, and anyone seeking a serene setting for incentive trips and group events.

The resort unfolds like a charming Spanish colonial–style village, complete with tranquil fountains and sun-splashed courtyards. Many of the 308 accommodations have fireplaces and balconies or patios overlooking the golf course or Topa Topa mountains.

The expansive new Conference Center contributes another village of sorts. Its 20,000 square feet of space includes two ballrooms decorated with wood accents, wrought-iron chandeliers, hand-stenciled walls and ceilings, and Moroccan carpets. Paseos warmed by fireplaces and illuminated by gas lamps invite guests to socialize outdoors as well.

Behind the scenes, a conference services team ensures the flawless execution of events from the planning stages until the final checkout. With a wide range of activities available on the 220-acre property, groups can enjoy anything from golf tournaments to Western hoedowns on a private 800-acre ranch nearby. Other innovative programs that can be added include introductions to wine tasting, aromatherapy, golf etiquette, and horsemanship.

Also noteworthy, the resort’s culinary experience. Sumptuous dinners at award-winning Maravilla as well as three additional restaurants on-site showcase the fresh produce grown in the Ojai Valley’s glorious Mediterranean microclimate.

This property is located in a very beautiful and scenic area. Some of the rooms need some serious refurbishing, but then others are very updated and lovely. The maze you have to go through to get around this resort is a little
off-putting. The grounds are very nice and the spa was also very nice.

It is a beautiful property. It is really spread out so if your room is far away you spend some time waiting for shuttles. My room was fabulous. I did not have any problems with cell phone connectivity (Verizon) but I heard other people did. The food was good. The spa was fabulous.

My group was thrilled with a retreat held at Ojai Valley Inn & Spa in 2007. It was such a success, we've already booked again for 2009. The location is great for those coming from the Southern California area--so close, yet feels so far. Much was spent on the Inn's recent renovation, and it shows. The rooms are very comfortable, food is very good and the service is excellent. All the event space worked well for my group (300+ attendees). What my group likes best is the resort feel of the property, and that the resort is very walkable. Both the spa and golf are so close (on property). Oh, and the food... did I mention the food? Great food. Bellmen here are the best!

I attended a conference at this property. From the arrival it was pleasure to be at this property. The staff is very friendly and attentive without being "in your face." There is a golf course onsite along with a spa that is a must experience. There are physical and mindful activities offered - walks, yoga, meditation, art class...you can even make your own perfume. The function space were connected through hallways and outdoor spaces - terrace, patio with outdoor fire pits. The catering as well as the restaurants offered creative...all delicious options. This property is very spread out yet you feel very connected...a community all its own.

The resort is beautiful. The rooms are a little spread out and it has been difficult at times to get transportation when needed. I am looking forward to experiencing the rest of the resort, spa, art, activities so I can comment better in this resort.

Lovely property for smaller group meetings such as 50-75. Very personal care taken to making sure that you are happy. Art activities are unique and diversified in tune with nature.

This is a truly beautiful property with wonderful views everywhere you look. The main buildings, restaurants and meeting rooms are all open, airy, and very functional. The sleeping rooms are nicely appointed, but they can be a bit loud depending on where you are on the property. Some of the rooms are right next to restaurants or back to a golf cart path so you get a bit of noise during the day and evening.The spa is great. Very relaxing. Beautiful and challenging golf course. The fitness center is well equipped but charges $20/day if you visit outside of a spa appointment. The artists cottage offers great small group &/or team building activities.
