Treebones Resort

Truly an amazing stay. The property is GORGEOUS and the service is amazing. The bathrooms were always super clean and our yurt was so cozy. Would def recommend bringing a pair of shower shoes lol. Also such good food - we got the 4 course meal there two nights in a row!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Treebones resort. It was the perfect place to unplug from the hectic city life. We booked two nights in the Autonomous tent, and got the Norte. The tent was cleaned, and spacious. The king size bed, and private bathroom were awesome. The view from our tent was beautiful.

Treebones Resort, is without a doubt the most unique location I have ever stayed. My fiancée and I knew from the moment we saw one of the yurts poking out from beyond the hills when driving up route 1 that this was going to be a special stay. From minute one, you're made to feel welcome, from the complimentary glass of wine on arrival, to the ground staff driving your luggage right up to your yurt. The yurts themselves are spacious, cosy and secluded. Not forgetting the very comfortable bed. It's a glamping resort so amenities like shower and toilet are a short walk away, but I'm pleased to report that they were clean, functional and regularly maintained. Yurts also are equipped with a heater to keep you warm at night. We had arrived at Treebones after a long drive so the on-site heated pool and hot tub were the perfect way to loosen up before dinner. Speaking of dinner... for such a remote location we were absolutely stunned by the quality of food on offer. Not the cheapest mind, but it's definitely fine dining and great dinner service. I was sorry to not try the sushi during our stay, but it looked great! Breakfast is also complimentary for guests, and offers a variety of healthy options to start your day. Treebones' strongest asset though, is its views & location. One can sit at the bar outside the main lodge for hours just taking in the coastal views with a glass of wine in hand. It's very clear that a lot of effort has gone into this place in order to make the guest experience as special as possible. Evenings in remote Big Sur, can definitely cool down fast, so the fire pit by the main stage on the hill was the perfect chill zone before heading to dinner. It was also where my fiancée and I got engaged, so I will never forget it! All in all, our time at Treebones was faultless. The staff were so kind and friendly, yurts were cosy, food was fantastic, and the views were unbeatable. For sure the most luxury glamping experience we've ever experienced. 5/5.

What can I say, Treebones is top-notch. We rustic campus at of 5 rustic sites. Absolutely beautiful. We were close to bathrooms and to the main lode, yet we felt totally secluded. The daily free breakfast was limited, but very tasty, including my new favorite, chia pudding. The lunch menu was delicious as well. Dinner was worthy of James Beard. The 5 course is the way to go, and they don't mind if you split it. Sushi is reservation only, as there are only 8 seats per turn, so make sure you have them. They also have plenty of yurts, "nests," as well as tiny houses to stay in, too, if you're above camping.

Our yurt was delightfully comfy with a huge soft bed, sink, table and reading chairs. The staff people we met were accommodating and kind. We chose to picnic in our yurt rather than eat in the restaurant. We had eaten there once before and felt we could enjoy our view and our own food and save the $200+ that dinner would have cost us. Breakfast was good. Frittata, yogurt, fruit and toast. For travelers wondering, yes you do have to use communal toilets and showers unless you are in the autonomous rooms which are almost $1000 a night. This makes for interesting nighttime forays in the dark. If you have to get up several times at night for this purpose you won’t enjoy staying here. There are no TVs and no wifi in the rooms- just in the lodge. Which was fine with us! Others may struggle since there was no cell signal either. That said, the pool (salt water) and hot tub were beautifully warm with lovely views of the coast. If you want peace and solitude, a day to read and snuggle, proximity to excellent hiking and a sometimes hair raising drive up one of the last remaining wild coastlines in California, you won’t be sorry. For us, it was spendy. Not sure we would return given our more limited budget for travel.
