Where to Stay When You Visit Big Sur, California

"The vibe: Refurbed roadside motel and cabins. Top amenities: Private courtyards, fire pits with evening s’mores, free Wi-Fi, stacks of board games. Best for: Design savvy travelers in Cotopaxi jackets. What's nearby: A trail through the property’s redwood grove and two swimming holes along the Big Sur River. This reimagined, mid-century motor lodge stands out with stylish interiors that feel at home in the redwoods. Think Pendlton wool blankets, Peroba wood, and a Buddha board in lieu of a TV. The property stretches across Highway 1 where you’ll find cabins set amidst the redwoods and along the Big Sur River. Book one with a private courtyard set with an outdoor clawfoot tub. At the onsite Big Sur Roadhouse, find breakfast and lunch dishes such as French toast and burgers."
