Big Sur Glamping at Ventana Campground

Taking it back to summer 2022 -- When we went on a mini getaway retreat into the great outdoors. It was extra special because our soul family, Candice + Phil spontaneously met us up!

We drove up north with incredible views of the west coast. We stopped at a few gorgeous spots to soak up the views, the soothing sounds of the ocean waves, the light codes of the sun, ocean breeze, feeling the fact that my soul was being cleansed, experiencing all of the elements simultaneously in all its glory. God's work

We stayed at Ventana Campground at Big Sur! Hands down my favorite campground of all time. It's nestled in a 40-acre land of redwoods off the highway.

These campgrounds are in the same grounds as the Alila Ventana Big Sur by the Hyatt Resort. The tent sites are about $80/night. Not only do they have campgrounds for tents only (you cannot car camp or RV it), they also have a hipster-vibed glamping yurt sites that's about $240/night. As well as their resort above, which I think their prices vary. Each tent site + yurt site includes a picnic table and fire pit.

You're literally in the central area of Big Sur next to everything! From hiking trails, popular sceneries, restaurants, a convenient store, etc.

There is a modern, communal area with games and an air stream snack store. They sell wine and beer. I would recommend bringing your own liquor to save on the overpriced drinks and snacks.

I loved how clean and well-maintained the grounds were. I highly recommend this place for novice campers to have their first experience at Ventana Campgrounds. I also would recommend this to families with children, people that want to be surrounded in nature, but want to have a cozy and comfortable experience. The fact that they had clean bathrooms that flush and showers (costs money) made my experience 10x better. Although I didn't utilize the showers... It's still a luxury to have.

Ventana Campground Camp Site Recommendations

I personally always document which campsites I would stay at if I know that I would want to come back again.

We stayed on campsite #19. It was nice and secluded with only one neighbor close by. The only mini downside was going up an incline, which was a bit of a hassle. Shoutout to my man for carrying everything up the slope lmao.

The campsites I recommend and would stay in the future is:

Campsite # 9, 10, and 11

You can also walk around and find yourself a trail amongst the grounds. We found a beautiful garden in the compound with fruits, herbs, and a gorgeous view of the ocean and sunset. If you want to catch the sunset, I highly recommend finding the garden to experience it.

Retreating into nature is by far my most favorite way to recharge and rejuvenate Nature has been gifted to us to serve as healing grounds for all of humanity. Soothing you on a deeper level... maybe drop a flow or two of inspiration. Maybe even clearing your channels for clarity. It’s literally made for us to indulge in its healing properties.

Mother Nature is literally healing grounds for the soul! If you ever feel stagnancy, lower emotions, uninspired, or even just led to go out of town... DO IT!

A few realizations I received on this trip:

• The more you go on getaways, the more opportunities you receive

• Dreamt of being killed in a witch hunt in a past life

• Caterpillar stage - consume consume consume all the information → Cocoon Stage - tower moment of its old identity as a caterpillar and leading it into the cocoon of darkness, shifting, healing, coalescing into its new form as all its old aspects of self transform into → Butterfly - emerged in all of her glory. Transformed + Evolved

• Honoring the life you had before and celebrating the next stages of consciousness

• Get out the house and go get you some nature

Big Shout out to my sweet sista, Candice for capturing a lot of these beautiful photos 💛

I can see myself coming back to Ventana campgrounds to experience the yurt glamping and their spa! Nature & Pamper?! Count me in to experience that very soon.

LIKE O M G! ↓LOOK AT THAT!↓

HOW BEAUTIFUL IS THIS BATHTUB WITH THE VIEWS OF THE REDWOODS!

It is an absolute dream. Manifesting this real soon.

I also want to manifest the glamping in a yurt too 😍

With Love,
