LOCATION

The Ojai Valley is located between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles, about 15 miles inland from Ventura (a 20-minute drive or one-hour bicycle ride from the ocean). The City of Ojai is a small town nestled in the five-mile-wide valley.

Ojai’s tranquil, natural retreat setting and sense of place is perhaps its greatest feature. The Ojai valley, due to its unique east-west orientation, is widely considered one of the most sacred places on earth. Ojai is legendary for its natural beauty, consecrated healing energy, acres of avocado and citrus groves, and its cultural, artistic and spiritual significance. Ojai is known as “the valley of the moon” derived from the Chumash word moon, Awhai.

In the mornings you're awakened by the sounds of nature as you rise to an environment of serene wildflowers highlighted by the orange glow of the rising sun’s reflection on the Topa-Topa mountains that surround the Valley. At sunset, the stunning radiant glow from these majestic mountain peaks is known as the famous Ojai Pink Moment. In the evenings, bright starlit nights under the clear Ojai sky are the norm.

Revel in a back-to-nature feeling, while simultaneously enjoying the benefits of fresh air and nature.

Ojai is the perfect setting for realization of a timeless state of being. The sacred beauty and tranquility of Ojai have always attracted nature lovers, healers, artists, writers, yogis and other spiritual seekers. Join them for a day, or for a lifetime.

This and more awaits you upon your arrival in Ojai.

ACTIVITIES & ATTRACTIONS

Villa Ojai is located within walking distance to town and steps away from some of the best hiking trails in Ojai.

Ojai is a bicycle/pedestrian/horseback-friendly town. Most of the town’s activities and attractions are within a few blocks from Villa Ojai, and can easily be reached on foot, bicycle, or via the nearby Ojai Trolley stop.

Stroll through the Arcade and here you will find the hub of small down-town Ojai: coffeehouses, wine tasting, art galleries, museums, day spas, a variety of shops and lots of places to eat. Across the street from the Arcade is Libbey Park, where you can relax in the shade of the oak trees and enjoy a picnic. Many festivals of all genres of theatre, music and art take place at Ojai's Libbey Park, Theatre 150 and Lake Casitas during the year.

Enjoy a leisurely family walk along Shelf Road, see http://goo.gl/maps/VUqNS, whilst enjoying breathtaking views of the Ojai Valley, or hike the Pratt Trail. Both trails are accessible within walking distance from the front door.

Also within walking distance, or a few minute drive: Ojai Valley Inn (1.5 miles), Soule Park Golf Course, scale Meditation Mount and take in picturesque views of the valley (don’t leave Ojai without watching the sunset from Meditation Mount), or stroke the waters of Lake Casitas by boat.

Biking:

Hop on your bike and carve a path into town, brush up on Ojai Valley's local flavors at the farmers' market, have lunch, enjoy the picturesque neighborhoods and soak up small town living. Local bike rentals available.

Enjoy biking the 16-mile Ojai Trail, a paved path that runs through scenic oak trees, mountain vistas, wild flowers and fresh air from Libbey Park in downtown Ojai all the way to the beach in Ventura.

Fishing and other recreational facilities at Lake Casitas:

Lake Casitas is one of the premier fishing lakes in the region. In addition to largemouth bass, the lake is filled with rainbow trout, crappie, red-ear sunfish, bluegill and channel catfish. Night fishing until 11 pm is held on selected weekends when the moon is full and weather permits.

The Casitas Water Adventure is open throughout the summer. For the younger children, a multi-level jungle gym with waterfalls, bridges and slides in a lagoon with water up to 18' deep.

For the whole family, the Lazy River offers a cool water ride on inner tubes along a scenic waterway featuring waterfalls, fog filled bridges and jet sprays. The inner tubes are available free of charge on a first come, first served basis. And for the tots, a zero-depth pool sprays water from all angles, providing a safe, fun play area.

Coyote Point Disc Golf Course is a beautiful challenging course overlooking Lake Casitas. The professionally designed course is set in rugged terrain with concrete tee pads. The course is maintained by the Ventura Disc Golf Club. http://venturadiscgolf.com/

                    We were a group of life friends having a 50th birthday reunion, 8 singles. We were very comfortable in the Villa, each having our own beds and plenty of bathroom space (we could have accommodated 12). We cooked and hung out at the house, and found the kitchen to be well equipped and modern. The setting is gorgeous and private. We walked easily to downtown twice. Don't miss Bart's Books down the street! The booking, entry, exit, cleanliness, etc, were all perfect. The listing represents the property very well.

                    My stay at Villa Ojai was wonderful. I stayed with a group of women that I had the pleasure of meeting and really enjoyed the concept of bunking with others (felt like we were at camp) as well as the comfort of a large kitchen and beautiful setting so close to town.

                    This review is long overdue! Villa Ojai saw the joining together of various branches of our family to celebrate both college graduations and a marriage proposal. The main house itself is gorgeous, decorated in southwestern muted tones; comfortable and welcoming. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms almost spa-like in presentation and design. Everything was very eye-appealing and extremely clean. The floor plan lends itself to privacy for couples (split bedroom wings) yet also allows commons areas (indoors and out) for the group to join together. We also rented a adjoining guest house that was romantic and delightful in its decor. The main house is barrier free inside and on the back patio; perfect for anyone with a disability. (including a beautiful barrier free shower in the main bedroom!) We loved ending our evenings with a fire in the outdoor fireplace! There were chairs that could be pulled up or outdoor sofas that welcomed the weary tourist, allowing us to share our adventures of the day. The Wine Festival was amazing and way too much fun! We also enjoyed the local golf course and a beautiful park, perfect for hiking, located about 8 miles east of Ojai. Darryl, as manager of Villa Ojai, was very accommodating to our needs, both ahead of time and while at the villa. His pleasant demeanor made the whole reservation process painless. (We ended up renting the whole estate as our numbers grew!) Villa Ojai was all that was promised in the VRBO! The location is perfect, just a few blocks from the main street with its great shopping/small upscale shops, great restaurants and a quaint used book store. The biggest surprise is that you are, in fact, in a residential area but you are also at the end of a dead end street; thus feeling you're "away from everything" while you're really not! It's just beyond the thick, lush greenery! (We were there in June) In short, our experience with Villa Ojai brings nothing but 5 out of 5 stars in all areas. Kudos to Darryl and the people that work so hard to maintain a premium property!

                    We had one, nine week stay at Villa Ojai and found it a more than enjoyable experience. The property exceeds the beauty of the pictures. Host Darryl is exceptionally accommodating and was most gracious. We had a number of out of state friends join us at Villa Ojai, all on short notice and Darryl was able to arrange very comfortable and enjoyable places for them to stay on the property. I'm sure they join me in stating the property is impressive, the location is private, yet within walking distance to downtown, the accommodations excellent and the host is great to work with. We hope to stay at Villa Ojai again, very soon.

                    came to Ojai for the Ojai Music Festival, its 65th year, and had a remarkable experience--it's a great festival! Staying in the beautiful accommodations at Villa Ojai was simply a bonus. The setting is very appealing, and the attention to detail in the dwellings is a dream. I cannot recommend this highly enough. Oh, and by the way I found the best hammock I've ever been in--lying out in amongst the lovely trees and birdsong, reading in my hammock, was very pleasurable. Thanks so much.

                    One thing that is important in traveling is to enjoy the place you stay, which we did. There were seven of us sharing the main house. Not only was it convenient, but it was quiet and very comfortable. There was lots of room for each of us. We will definitely stay there the next time we travel to Ojai.

                    Villa Ojai is a fabulous place with an amazing location in Ojai, California. Once you arrive you can park you car for the entire time of your stay. You are only minutes from downtown shopping and restaurants. You can also spend days just relaxing at the beautiful home that is full of art and space. A gourmet kitchen, an incredible master suite and bath...You can sleep ten easily or you can feel quite cozy as a couple. The owner is a great guy who will work with you to make you stay memorable. If you have a group or a family reunion check out Villa Ojai...its unforgettable!

                    What a wonderful location! It is a park like setting. Very quiet, comfortable with a cool breeze through the trees. We have stayed here a number of times over the past few years and we are always looking forward to our next visit. Clean comfortable every thing you could ever need to prepair that perfect meal. Walk to town great places to eat or pick up something and bring it home. I would recomend this property to anyone looking to stay in Ojai don't look any further this is the one!

                    We anticipated our enjoyment of Ojai's Music Festival. We did not anticipate the exceptional enjoyment we experienced throughout our stay at Villa Ojai. Its kitchen truly accommodated preparation of our, yes, gourmet meals. And, the gently lighted dining room lent elegance to their presentation. Even clean-up was fun. Then there were our cushy beds with their cloud-like quilts and pillows. And, forget the word bathroom. These were luxurious spas. As to your "Review Tips & Guidelines," I would highly "recommend this property to a friend or relative" and further recommend that they take me back to Villa Ojai with them. Sincerely, Doris S. Schneider

Ojai’s tranquil, natural retreat setting and sense of place is perhaps its greatest feature. The Ojai valley, due to its unique east-west orientation, is widely considered one of the most sacred places on earth.

Ojai is known as “the valley of the moon” derived from the Chumash word moon, Awhai.

At sunset, these majestic mountain peaks stunning radiant glow is known as the famous Ojai Pink Moment. In the evenings, bright starlit nights under the clear Ojai sky are the norm. Revel in a back-to-nature feeling, while simultaneously enjoying the benefits of fresh air and nature. Ojai is the perfect setting for realization of a timeless state of being. The sacred beauty and tranquility of Ojai have always attracted nature lovers, healers, artists, writers, yogis and other spiritual seekers. Join them for a day, or for a lifetime.
