The Spot: Post Ranch Inn

Location: Big Sur, California

What to Expect: Trust us, the sight of California’s majestic coastline—from the Pacific Ocean to the nearby mountain peaks—is so much better at 1,200 feet above sea level. And when you do want a change of scenery, go for a soak in the outdoor hot tub, take a yoga and meditation class in the trees, or stargaze during a guided nature walk.
