Homey and Unique 5/23/2012

Southern California is beautiful and the Blue Iguana is the most homey and unique inn/hotel I've ever stayed in. There's nothing like this place back home! We loved it here and I hope we'll be back again someday! more

Amazing! 3/23/2012

Nothing better than a big private hot tub and a warm romantic fire place! We didn't leave the whole stay it was so good. What a relaxing get away from our lively children...! With the helpful and friendly service we will be back! Thank you! more

Found By Accident 2/14/2012

After deciding to go on an adventure, we found a wonderful surprise at the Blue Iquana. We stumbled upon a beautiful, serene, comforting hideaway. the staff was extremely helpful and welcoming and the rooms are tasteful in every detail. I've already emailed many of my friends and can't wait for our own return to this magical place. more

wonderful 1/23/2012

I would love to move here when I retire! Ojai is great and I have been back to this Inn 3 years in a row. I always get my first meal at Broccollis, order the lasagne and the shortcake. the perfect getaway. more

Excellent Stay 1/20/2012

My husband and I stayed at this Inn for 3 night and it was even better than we expected it to be. The rooms were very nice and clean, and the grounds of the Inn were kept very well. One of the days we were in Ojai we spent the entire afternoon at the pool at the Inn, and it was a great day! We will definitely go back to this place! more

So great 1/9/2012

We were thrilled with this place and recommend it every time we have a chance. The beds offered me sleep better than I can remember and the room was perfect. I cant wait to go back and hope that will be very soon. more

Emerald Iguana almost ruined Ojai for us!!!! 9/25/2007

My now husband, and I searched for the perfect property to host our 3-day, wedding weekend celebration for our families and friends. It wasn't until we stumbled upon this gorgeous hotel, that everything else fell into place. We ended up renting the ENTIRE property for 3 days, for our entire family. And if you're doing your math, people, that's a little over $8,000 the owners made off of us.\r \r Everything was fine until my family began to arrive on Friday. I'm African-American, my husband is Jewish. The owner became tense, rude and began demanding deposits that hadn't been mentioned before. We'd already settled the bill with a great lady that worked in the office, but then the owner came in and, after locking the rooms that had already been opened so I could put gift baskets in them, wouldn't hand the keys over to me until I paid her the extra money. Where I come from, that's called extortion. \r \r We paid, because at that point our guests had arrived, entire families, some of whom live across the country and hadn't seen each other in 10 years. After a few hours of her sitting in the office, glaring at everyone as they gathered by the pool before leaving for the rehearsal dinner, she left, and was replaced by a wonderful employee. I was so devastated about the owner's outrageous behavior, I didn't attend my own rehearsal dinner. \r \r When we confronted the owner about her behavior at the end of our stay, there was no remorse on her part whatsoever. It's sad because we would've been loyal customers who returned every year for our anniversary, and my husband's family is a HUGE, warm (wealthy) family that loves to travel, renting multiple homes in the summers together, and had fallen in love with this place as well. But now that they know how my family was treated, they're never coming back to this establishment again. We all will be taking our business and our money elsewhere. At the end of the day, we're just good people who didn't deserve to be treated this way. more

NOT RECOMMENDED / BAD EXPERIENCE - cute hotel with BAD SERVICE 7/21/2007

We did not get our romantic get-away as we hoped in Ojai. Their website looked cute so we took a chance. We knew it was a kid friendly hotel, but it was more like a daycare environment. There were kids in the room above us that were loud all day long starting at about 6am. There was another family with young children that were really noisy as well. Our room was cute, but the kind size matress we were promised was nothing but a really OLD & UNCOMFORTABLE queen size bed. When we called the front desk to ask about this situation, she insisted that this matress measuring 60x80 was a king (do your research people). The bed was really uncomfortalbe and we were disappointed that it was a queen.\r We woke up early due to loud children in the hotel so figured we could take advantage of their breakfast set up. They serve it in a room smaller than a small bathroom stall that was supposed to accomodate 30 guests. There was no place to eat our food, so we had to hike all the way back to our room that was all the way in the back of the property. I knew it was a hotel, but nobody told me that I had to deliver my own food. NOT FUN. \r The SERVICE was LOUSY, The front desk was RUDE AND CONDESCENDING. Instead of trying to accomodate us, they insisted on arguing and trying to prove us that we were wrong. Nice service. DON'T STAY HERE UNLESS YOU WANT BAD SERVICE AND RUDE FRONT DESK.\r It's too bad because it's a really cute hotel, but just not run properly. You want friendly and cozy service if you're staying at an intimate place like this is described on their web site.\r We drove all the way from orange county for a lousy visit. What a waste of a weekend and our money.\r BLUE IGUANA IN GETS OUR 2 THUMBS DOWN : ( Pros: Ojai is a cute little town, but there are better places to stay Cons: Rude, condescending, false advertising, loud... wow, this sounds really bad because it is more

A Great Nights Sleep 6/16/2003

My favorite place to stay while in Ojai. Wonderful rooms. Amazing staff. If the Blue Iguana is booked you can always stay at the sister site. The charming Emerald Iguana. With higher priced sites in Ojai they haven't even come close to charm of this lovely place. more
