Casa del Cielo, a Spectacular Retreat

You will enjoy a lovely room with its own private entrance, bathroom and sauna. It adjoins a deck with a hot tub and patio furniture featuring spectacular views of the Topa Topa Mountains and a great place to observe Ojai's unique "Pink Moment." * The space ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cradled by the rolling hills of the Ojai Valley, Casa del Cielo is a tranquil oasis full of hidden surprises. The extensive grounds offer several delightfully novel touches. The path to your room passes underneath a natural wisteria archway as it leads you to an adjoining redwood deck, a great spot to take in a panoramic view of the native plant garden and the majestic hills beyond. From the deck, a few steps takes you through a rose garden, then down to a large native garden with it's own patio. Continue on through an arbor in the center of the garden down a short path, and you enter a Zen-like outdoor retreat, hugged by the hills and sheltered by tall bamboo and lush greenery. The trickling you hear is a stream, flowing from a waterfall in the Japanese Garden to your right. Cross one of the two Asian-style footbridges and follow the stream to a large lily pond. In the corner opposite the pond, a redwood gazebo is poised on the edge of a deep canyon. It provides another ideal spot for enjoying a spectacular view of the Topa Topa Mountains and the legendary “Pink Moment.” * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Nestled within a rare east-west mountain range, the Ojai Valley is one of the few places in the world to experience a "Pink Moment" as the sun is setting. For several minutes, the fading sunlight creates brilliant shades of pink and lavender on the Topa Topa bluffs, more than 6,000 feet above sea level at the east end of the valley. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Guest access In addition to the private sauna in the guest bathroom and the outdoor spa adjoining your room, you will also have access to the kitchen and laundry room.
