Blue Iguana Inn

Worth it! I was worried about the location being right off the main road into Ojai, but it is not bothersome at all. It’s a 2.5 miles walk into the main part of town, or a 5 minute drive. The quaint little hotel is set back from the road with lush greenery and retaining wall creating a good atmosphere and sense of privacy. The rooms are thoughtfully furnished with traditional wood furniture, but very high quality and comfortable. Our king patio room had a sitting room with an adorable fireplace which came in great handy during the chilly fall evening. Everything is very clean, the kitchen is surprisingly large and well stocked. The pool and jacuzzi are well maintained, in general the whole grounds are very nicely manicured and they decorated for Xmas in late November which was very nice! I am truly impressed with the thoughtfulness of the owners in the way they run and maintain the whole property, such a gem of a place that you don’t see often anymore. As someone who does a lot of business travel and goes to corporate chains, this is a very refreshing change. Additional update: unfortunately our DVD player wasn’t working with our TV. The kind woman at the front desk came to our room to help, yet she wasn’t able to make it work. Nonetheless, the responsiveness and effort was there. In the future I’d recommend double checking that these things work and perhaps writing a set of simple instructions for guests to follow should they want to use the DVD option.

The room was very cozy, with bright tile floor. The bathroom was nice sized, and I liked the shower. No breakfast. The grounds may be the best part, park like and very dog friendly.

Comfortable and charming. We had a King Suite and found lots of room to spread out. There were two of us staying the night and we had a wall between us (priceless). I loved the patios, the lawns, and the jacuzzi. It’s a beautiful facility and the innkeepers were accommodating and caring. I had my coffee on my private back patio and listened to the nearby roosters crowing! Terrific!

My husband and I stopped over one night on our babymoon and it was a great little find. Room was super cute, great outdoor seating setup and the staff was super kind and helpful. I misplaced my wallet and they were super helpful and calm helping me find it, from the maintenance staff to housekeeping to the front desk. Really positive experience, thank you Blue Iguana folks!

Lovely property. Quiet, sanctuary like. Close to town. Immaculately clean. Super cute rooms w/adorable patio where we enjoyed a glass of wine. Highly recommend. 5-Stars.

What a great little spot. Cute room. Adorable property. Only slight markdown is that it isn’t really walking distance from downtown. And it’s a bit noisy during the day. Other than that it’s perfect. Great value for the price. We would stay here every time we visit. Not great WiFi. :)

We were in town for our son's wedding, and while my husband and I stayed at their sister property (Emerald Iguana, which we have stayed at before and love), all our other kids stayed at the Blue Iguana in Casa Alegre and loved it. Both properties are maintained wonderfully, staff is so helpful.

This place is Magical. The location, the grounds the peace and quiet. One of my Favorite Places I have had the pleasure to stay in. I would recommend to anyone looking for a getaway.
