Post Ranch Inn

We came for the second time to celebrate our anniversary (#25 and #27). This is not a place with lots of nightlife but if you are looking for a romantic relaxing getaway, you will be hard pressed to find better. Gorgeous views, perfect temperature hot tubs overlooking cliffs and sea, luxury rooms with the most comfortable bed/pillows ever, and a lot of nature. Fantastic!

My husband and I spent 3 glorious nights at Post Ranch Inn in January to celebrate his birthday. Before we arrived on property, we had extension communication with General Manager Tim Lee who could not have been more helpful and accommodating in planning our trip. We stayed in the magical Castro House which was one of the most phenomenal accommodations we have ever stayed in (and we have traveled quite extensively). The house had 3 main areas and a separate foyer which made it feel quite spacious but still felt cozy due to all the beautiful wood used throughout the house. The main living area had leather sofas, a beautiful gas fireplace and a perfectly outfitted and well-stocked kitchen, and was made complete with gorgeous views of the ocean and access to the outdoor terrace. The separate bedroom and bathroom were also beautiful and comfortable, again with crazy ocean views from both the bedroom AND bathroom and another access point to the outdoor terrace. We also had a third TV room with its own amazing ocean views. Everywhere you went in the house, the ocean went with you! We loved using the pristine hot tub on the deck where we could appreciate all the beautiful, natural flora surrounding us. Breakfast shared on our private terrace was a daily highlight. We had a delicious dinner in the restaurant on property, which was temporarily housed in their art gallery while the main restaurant was under renovation. We enjoyed many walks throughout the serene woodlands and each enjoyed an excellent massage at their spa. Tim had arranged for one of the ever-so-talented on-property chefs to cook us a private dinner in the house, complete with sommelier service. This was such a special treat and truly the highlight of our magnificent trip. Post Ranch Inn is one of the most amazing coastal venues in the country. The physical beauty of the resort, the genuine hospitality of the crew and the intimate, unpretentious and relaxed vibe will keep us coming back to this little slice of heaven on earth year after year.

We cannot stop raving about Post Ranch Inn. If you’re looking for a vacation that is peaceful, relaxing and active, I highly recommend spending 2-3 nights here. We unfortunately only had planned for 1 night but wish it would have been longer

Such a magical place…. Would highly recommend! The staff so friendly fabulous and accommodating. The rooms are beyond! The architecture is stunning. Sierra Mar the properties restaurant is beautiful overlooking the stunning ocean views and the food so delicious! I would highly highly recommend!

I recently spent a few nights at The Post Ranch Inn and I have to say it was the nicest property I’ve ever stayed at. From the luxury accommodations - where every detail exceeded my expectations, to the breath taking views - the Post Ranch Inn has redefined for me what a five star resort experience looks like. It was so nice I even extended my stay. The thing that makes the Post Ranch truly exceptional is the staff they have working there. From DJ, Jeff, Grayson and everyone at the front office to Aldo at the bar (who made me feel like I was at my local pub) I truly felt like I was part of a big family working together to deliver their guests the best stay imaginable. Make sure to do the Falconry class with Antonio - you will learn so much about birds of prey and the local environment. It was one of the most unique experiences and I got to have hands-on interactions with the birds. Martin (who I found out was the unofficial mayor of Big Sur) and Nick from the maintenance department were genuine, friendly and went out of their way to make me feel welcome. Tim has an amazing staff and should be proud of the job they do. Thank you Post Ranch Inn, I am looking forward to coming back as soon as I am able. David H Albuquerque, NM
