Glen Oaks is an old motel situated off Highway 101 in Big Sur, CA, one of the most beautiful and scenic locales in the US. It's been around since the 60s or 70s, I believe, but you'd never feel its age once you've stepped into one of the rooms. They have been recently remodeled (in the past couple years) in... more

Wow - I loved this place!! Comfortable luxury (eg. heated floors) but totally blissful, peaceful (ie. no television) - best of both worlds!! Right on Highway 1, brilliant opportunity just to chill out and relax - we ate at the Roadhouse opposite, lovely. Excellent location for visiting Big Sur. No reception cover overnight but emergency contact information provided. Drive a... more

Beautiful little spot. Although it is a "motel" it is not really a motel. The rooms are very modern with great decor. Even heated bathroom floors! And the staff are very nice. We especially loved the gas firepit they have on the property that you can sit around in the evenings. No complaints whatsoever at this lovely spot. more

We absolutely loved Glen Oaks! Unfortunately for us we only had one night there but it still made an impression. The rooms are a good size, modern and stylist with a lovely fireplace. The bathroom in particular really stood out and was a very high quality. We had a lovely breakfast in the cafe next to the reception. We also... more

This is a motel style structure, but doesn't at all feel like a motel. The rooms are modern with a cozy, outdoorsy feel. The room had some great touches - a gas fire place, and a spa-like bathroom with a heated floor. There's also a fire place on the common grounds. My husband and I hung out there one night,... more

What can I say Tranquil, Peaceful, Relaxing. Just loved this motel. Excellent location in the middle of a forrest in the Big Sur. The rooms are like little cabins scattered into the Forrest just off highway 1. the room was finished very well. The bathroom was excellent with large shower. All we could have wished for after a long day... more

We happened upon this little place in the late hours of the evening and were greeted by a lovely woman who offered us a cabin in the back of the property. The price was a really good value and the cabin was AMAZING! It had a huge bed, was super clean, and was warm and friendly. It has a cute... more

We had one of the queen rooms (#11) at Glen Oaks Motel. The room itself is beautiful; modern, clean and stylish. There is a fireplace (which we didn't use), a mini-fridge, a safe and yoga mats! The bathroom was also stylish and had a lovely big shower. The room wasn't particularly cheap - we paid $155 + $17 tax ,... more

Glen Oaks has a standard motel layout, but has been given a very stylish and rather luxurious makeover. I loved the design - really contemporary and clean, but uses wood and other natural materials so fits with the natural beauty of Big Sur setting. Bed was huge and very comfy and it was great to have a stylish modern gas... more

Really cute, comfortable place to stay. Rooms are well designed, with huge showers and heated flooring in the bathroom. As there's no TV it's very peaceful and relaxing. Nice bar across the road too, with great Mexican food. Only thing that's a little puzzling is there are no drinks facilities in the rooms so you have to go to reception... more
