    Pacific Window

    Perched on the rugged Californian cliffs of Big Sur, at the edge of the Pacific, Ventana Big Sur (Alila Resort) is the epitome of rustic yet sophisticated elegance. This vast, secluded estate, where thousands of cedars and redwoods rise, is home to prolific wildlife surrounding this iconic hotel. Nestled in the hills overlooking the ocean, Ventana Big Sur reveals a wooden resort designed in the heart of a solitary land, where wildflowers invade the surrounding meadows... An idyllic escape, this 5-star hotel invites relaxation with its two magnificent heated swimming pools and Japanese hot baths. Let yourself be enveloped by the scents of lavender and other natural botanical essences at the Spa, then take a stroll through the forest along a small, winding path to the restaurant, where you can choose between an intimate dining room beneath lovely exposed beams or a vast terrace offering breathtaking views of the Big Sur coast. Ventana is a truly upscale getaway offering 60 rooms and suites, and more recently 15 safari-style tents with chic vagabond decor, amidst superb rural landscapes. Adults only.
