The Peak House has mountain views that frame Big Sur's wild landscape. Post Ranch Inn sits on cliffs about 1,200 feet above the Pacific along Highway 1, so the setting is high, remote and quiet. Guests are also encouraged to watch for California condors, which can be seen in Big Sur.
The room has one king bed with a pillowtop mattress and premium bedding. It sleeps two guests. All rooms at Post Ranch Inn are limited to two people because each has a single king bed.
The private bathroom has a deep soaking bathtub and a shower/bathtub combination. It is stocked with bathrobes, slippers, designer toiletries, shampoo, soap, towels and a hair dryer.
Post Ranch Inn guestrooms have no televisions or alarm clocks. Instead, the Peak House has a fireplace, an iPod dock, a tablet computer and free WiFi. There is also a coffee and tea maker with an electric kettle, plus a phone with free local calls. Room service runs limited hours.
The room rate includes daily breakfast at Sierra Mar, valet or self-parking, and a complimentary in-room minibar. It also covers access to the pools and fitness center, daily resort activities such as yoga, meditation, guided nature walks and garden tours, and use of the inn's Lexus vehicles. There is no separate resort fee. Taxes apply: a 10.5% nightly occupancy tax, a 0.195% California Tourism Assessment and a $7.90 daily Monterey County Tourism Tax.
Post Ranch Inn is an adults-only retreat built for couples and relaxation. The minimum check-in age is 18, and a two-night minimum stay is required. It suits a romantic escape or a restful longer stay, but it does not suit families with children.
There are three outdoor pools: two cliffside heated infinity pools kept at about 104°F, and a lap pool. Pool access is 24 hours a day. The fitness center is also open around the clock. The spa is open 10:00am to 6:00pm, and many treatments, including in-room massage, can be arranged in your suite. Sierra Mar serves breakfast, lunch and dinner on property. A falconry experience is $200 per guest for a 2-hour group session.
The nearest airport is Monterey Peninsula Airport (MRY), about one hour's drive away. A rental car is essential in Big Sur, because rideshare apps are unreliable past Carmel and there is no meaningful public transport. Sections of Highway 1 occasionally close because of landslides, so check road conditions before you drive.
Big Sur is often cool and foggy, so pack layers year-round. September through November is frequently cited as the best time, with warm, clear afternoons. Winter is the rainiest season, with lush landscapes and gray whale migration from December into spring. Wildflowers bloom from March through May.
