Ojai Rancho Inn brings a rustic, boho-chic take on a 1950s ranch-style motel, with red-painted wood planks and a woodsy, campy feel. Days can revolve around the outdoor pool and a big communal lawn set up for BBQs, a fire pit, and easy hangouts. When it is time for a drink, Chief's Peak pours natural wines, craft beer, and saké cocktails with vinyl spinning in the background.

A charming motel with a fun bar to hang in. We rented four cabins for three days of golf and we really enjoyed the Ojai Rancho Inn. Walking distance to the Ojai Valley Inn, lovely walking path into town which is super charming. Go to The Duchess for breakfast!
We've being coming here for 30+ years. Rustic, but that's the way we like it. Very comfortable for younguns and old geezers alike, although stone floor is getting a little harder to walk on as we get older. Still, it's a completely charming world at Ojai Rancho. Thank you!
Room was nice, clean and cozy. Parking was easy and secure. Kind, attentive staff. Really appreciated morning coffee/tea, complimentary bikes and pool amenities. Room was a bit noisier than expected (and not as quiet sleeping) due to parking and car traffic from Ojai Ave.
Got an incredible deal on this for a Monday night. Rooms are super cute and have everything you need. Same with the property! Pool, sauna and they even have bikes!
Great spot to chill for a bit. Nice communal fire pit, beautiful little bar, great little pool, fantastic yard games and hammocks!
Room was very clean and well put together.
The room was very nice, the property was gorgeous, and the staff was incredibly kind and accommodating. My one complaint is that the room itself was incredibly dark. The overhead light was not bright enough at all. The only way to get any real light in the room was to open the door.
The design of the room is full of artistic elements and embodied a lifestyle of simple and nature. I love being able to walk in nature, swimming in perfect temperature pool, and relax in sauna.
Love staying at this place because it’s close to everything, has a pool. it’s own bar, and has walking trails that are shaded that go right into town. Dog friendly as well!!
We love this property and the whole vibe. Sitting poolside sipping a drink basking in the sun. We love Chief’s Peak bar for a nightcap, swinging in the hammock under the shade of a tree, delicious coffee in the morning, 10/10 recommend.
