As one of Post Ranch’s Extraordinary Experiences, join local jade diver and artist Justin Barrett for a Jade Carving Class. Big Sur jade is a rare nephrite found only along this stretch of coastline. Select your own stone and shape it using lapidary tools into a piece of jewelry or a personal keepsake.

Along the way, discover the story behind this remarkable material and settle into the meditative rhythm of the carving process. You’ll leave with something crafted by your own hands, and a deeper connection to Big Sur.

No prior experience necessary.

Two Kitchens. One Coastline.

Join us May 26 & 27 as we welcome Executive Chef Kyle St. John of The Ranch at Laguna Beach to Post Ranch Inn for The California Table, an exclusive two-night event celebrating the ingredients, landscapes, and stewardship practices that define world-class dining along the California coast.

The event unfolds on the afternoon of May 26 for bites and local pours in the Chef's Garden. The following night, the two chefs move into Sierra Mar for a collaborative menu featuring ingredients and philosophies that have shaped their respective kitchens.

The garden event is for hotel guests, while the Sierra Mar dinner is open to anyone with a restaurant reservation. Very limited seating remaining. Reservations at the link in bio.

There are places that remind you what really matters. Big Sur is one of them.

Standing at the edge of the world, where the mountains fade into the sea and the fog moves through the redwoods like it has somewhere to be, it's difficult not to feel both the wonder and the weight of the natural world. It shapes how we build, how we operate, and what we ask of ourselves as stewards of this particular corner of California.

Sustainability, for us, has never been a program, a checklist or a talking point. It's the reason the property looks and feels the way it does. It's the reason the Chef's Garden exists, the reason the land around us is managed the way it is, the reason we give back to the community.

We don't always get it perfect. But the intention is genuine, and the commitment is long.

On Earth Day, we hope you'll find a moment to step outside, breathe deeply, and let the world remind you of what's worth protecting.

We'll be doing the same.

Happy Birthday, Post Ranch Inn!

Since April 9, 1992, we have welcomed guests to a place where land meets sea, architecture lives in harmony with nature, and time slows just enough to reconnect with what matters most.

Here’s to 34 years of beauty, intention, and unforgettable moments in Big Sur. Thank you to all our guests and the Post Ranch team for making it so meaningful.

Mindfulness in nature begins with presence. At Post Ranch, the redwoods, cliffs, and ocean invite us to slow down and listen. Even a few moments outdoors — a quiet walk through the forest or sitting still above the Pacific — can restore clarity and calm. Wherever you are, step outside, open a window, or simply pause in stillness. Give yourself permission to be present.

We're proud to celebrate, Rob Somers, Post Ranch Inn's resident shaman, on the launch of his new book, Shamergence.

Rob's journey, from touring musician to stage IV cancer survivor to practicing shaman, is one of surrender, love, and profound healing. His story reminds us that transformation often begins at a turning point in our lives.

We're privileged to have his healing presence on the land each day. Guests staying at Post Ranch are invited to experience Rob's shamanic sessions firsthand. Discover a rare and deeply personal encounter with healing, ceremony, and the sacred energy of Big Sur.

You can purchase Rob's book in our Mercantile, at our Spa or online via the link in our bio.

Bluefin Tuna Special

Served with ponzu sauce, a crisp fried nori chip, caramelized onion and citrus powder, snow peas, and a touch of chili oil. Bright, savory, and just the right amount of heat.
