Rancho Valencia

Beautiful grounds, exceptional service. I came for a birthday spa day and was so impressed with everything Rancho Valencia has to offer. I especially want to highlight my experience with Sheryl (in event coordination)—she went above and beyond to make me feel truly special on my birthday. I honestly wouldn’t be writing this review if it weren’t for her thoughtful gesture and impactful service. I’m a sucker for great service, and she absolutely delivered. She deserves all the praise!

Went for a spa day with my husband for our anniversary. Treatments were nice, then went to the pool to relax and have lunch and there were no available chairs. I understand it was a Saturday, but there was no where to sit and have lunch afterwards. After waiting we got in the pool and it was the dirtiest pool I’ve ever been in - in my life. Visible pieces floating everywhere. Like fish food. The resort is beautiful and the service is nice, but the pool freaked me out.

Went to the Pony Room for dinner. Overall, it was a lovely experience but my chicken was a bit undercooked as were my brussel sprouts. Service was outstanding tho'. My partner loved his burger, said it was the best he's ever had. I 'd eat there again.

Our stay at Rancho Valencia was amazing! The service, five star hospitality, food, ambiance, and the spa are all the best! Highly recommend 10/10–a magical, serene oasis and hidden gem just outside of LA 🙌🏼
