Happy New Year! As we find ourselves making resolutions for the upcoming year, we hope your resolutions include spending some time relaxing and unwinding at our Inn.
2010 is the year of “new” at Ojai Valley Inn & Spa. With new venues and many new exciting activities and events, we are hoping that your next trip here will be a memorable one. This January, our Arts and Leisure series is showcasing Julie Powell, author of the book Julie and Julia. Julie will join us for an interactive weekend dedicated to Julia Child, teaming with our Executive Chef, Jamie West.
The Spa has temporarily relocated to our beautiful new Herb Garden, overlooking the new 25-meter adult swimming pool, with spa treatments being conducted in our wonderful Hillside Rooms. This month, through the renovation period, enjoy two treatments and receive a complimentary lunch at the Oak Café.
We are also proud to say that we are honored to receive our 5-diamond award from AAA for the fourth consecutive year.
From all of us here at Ojai Valley Inn & Spa, we wish you the healthiest and happiest of New Years!
Best wishes,
Janis Clapoff
Managing Director
