Our Spa Expert Says:

Experience the rustic luxury of a Big Sur spa with magnificent views of the Ventana mountains! The Spa at the Post Ranch Inn offers pampering spa sessions both in comforting treatment rooms and in the privacy of your own room. Guests can enjoy state of the art amenities from fitness equipment to pools. These include the basking pool, which overlooks the ocean, and is kept at a delightful 104 degrees, as well as the lap pool, perfect for a swim or soak in the sun. The experience here is further enhanced by the organic architecture that embraces the natural beauty of the surroundings. With all of this, plus goodies such as yoga classes, private hikes, meditation sessions and, of course, indulgent treatments, the Spa at the Post Ranch Inn will leave you feeling revitalized in no time.

Spa guests will have plenty of treatments to choose from, infused with cultural diversity. There is the Big Sur jade stone therapy, which uses jade, collected from nearby beaches, and river rocks combined with massage, to relieve sore muscles, as well as cooled marble to melt muscles. If you like a bit more spice, go Hungarian and feel the purifying blend of organic herbs including sage, ivy, cinnamon, and paprika, combined with a Hungarian thermal mud body masque, for a stimulated and vibrant complexion. The Post Ranch Massage is the signature massage here, blending Swedish massage, pressure point therapy, and energy balancing, while you may also choose to go with the Thai Massage, to promote improved flexibility and energy flow through yoga positions and acupressure points. For dinner, head to the Sierra Mar for a prix fixe menu which changes daily, and always boasts organic, seasonal fare and extensive wine selections.
