Lavender Inn

Lavender Inn is a boutique inn in downtown Ojai, built in 1874, and its day spa sits just steps from the inn's front door. The spa's signature feature is the Garden Massage Gazebo, an open-air setup among the inn's gardens where guests can book single or couples massages. Facials and massages are also available inside the adjacent Ojai Garden Spa building.

Access is limited to people staying at the inn, so this isn't a stop for walk-in day-trippers. There's a relaxation lounge on site, and couples treatments are specifically offered, which fits the inn's broader focus on romantic getaways, anniversaries and small celebrations. A parking lot is available for guests.

Hours run 8am to 6pm Monday through Friday and Sunday, with a longer window on Saturday from 7:30am to 6pm (per listed hours) through 7pm. Pricing falls into the moderate tier overall for the inn and its services, though specific treatment menus and rates aren't published here—worth a call to (805) 646-6635 or a look at the inn's own site before booking. The spa is positioned as an add-on to a stay rather than a standalone destination, so plan to book a room at Lavender Inn if a massage in the garden gazebo is the goal.
