The Ojai Retreat is absolutely lovely. They go above and beyond in every capacity imaginable. From the quiet, peaceful, beautiful scenery to the epic breakfast buffet, they stole my heart. The photos don't do it justice. It's way better in person. Insanely fairly priced. It's truly a hidden gem. I hope I am able to stay there again.

Very quiet. Breakfast was included and delicious. Loved the potatoes. Only downside, our garden patio furniture was really old and cushions were very flat and dirty. Hiking paths were lovely, but the “watch for snakes” with numerous holes made me run as fast as I could. Waterfall area was very nice. Patio would be so wonderful if it had a jacuzzi.

Absolutely loved it. Quiet and peaceful. We did not want to leave. Wish we stayed another night. Only flaw was the breakfast, wish it was more natural. They had continental breakfast and some items were from Costco. Had the shared bathroom room and was perfect. All guests are respectful adults, no kids! View is breathtaking.

I didn’t know what to expect when I booked, my room (patio room) was one of the lower priced rooms in ojai, but wow what a beautiful location! Panoramic views, clean rooms, the TV was not missed on this property(we all know phones now anyways) no where on this property was anything short of beautiful, the breakfast wasn’t the most expansive, but more than adequate for a quick bite before exploring:) I’ll be back for sure. Perfect place to stay:)
