More than just a place to stay.

What's included in your ranch getaway.

At Alisal Ranch, your stay includes far more than a room. Each nightly rate features your ranch-style accommodations, daily breakfast and dinner, and beverages throughout your stay – allowing you to settle into the pace of the Santa Ynez Valley from the moment you arrive.

Spend your days fishing on our private lake, hiking scenic foothill trails, or relaxing beneath wide open skies. Horseback riding, golf, spa treatments, and select activities are available à la carte, so you can shape each day to your own rhythm. Children 6 and under stay complimentary, with plenty of space to roam, explore, and wind down together at day’s end.

ranch packages

Bundle more into your stay.

Each package builds on the standard Alisal Ranch stay, which includes your accommodations along with daily breakfast and dinner. The Adventure Alisal package adds two ranch activities per day – such as guided horseback riding, e-biking, and archery – making it a popular option for guests planning an active dude ranch vacation.

For guests visiting for golf, the Golf Package includes rounds on the Alisal River Course or the private Ranch Course as part of your stay. Both packages allow activities to be included in the nightly rate rather than purchased à la carte, offering added value while keeping each day flexible to enjoy the ranch at your own pace. Available select dates.

Spring at the Ranch

Boots & Blooms

Some of the best spring moments are the ones that unfold slowly.

At Alisal Ranch, Boots & Blooms invites you to settle into the season as it comes to life. Wildflowers begin to bloom, flavors turn fresh and vibrant, and each day brings something new to discover.

From garden-inspired dining and spring cocktails to hands-on experiences like flower cookie-making with Elizabeth Poett, it’s a time to slow down, step outside, and take it all in.
