Our magical weekend wedding at Calliote Canyon was a dream come true. It is a perfect place, close to nature and the beauty and spirituality of Ojai and also perfectly cozy and luxurious. Our family and friends have remarked that the location was ideal for our small destination wedding. We had a wonderful time and are blessed with amazing memories.

"My first thought when arriving at Calliote was 'How can I live here forever?' What a wonderful, beautifully crafted estate! From the thoughtful, colorful landscaping to the hand-made cabinets and interior finishes, everything about Calliote Canyon is designed for relaxation, joy, and elegance. Unlike many rental properties and retreat centers, there is a feeling of completeness. No details have been skipped over or spared, which means that our time spent here was nothing less than perfect. The process of booking, organizing, and executing our wedding here was made smooth and simple through the help of Raymond, who is an exceptional manager for this property. I wholeheartedly recommend Calliote Canyon as the destination of choice for a family or group that wants to be surrounded by peace, relaxation, integration with nature, and beauty"

Our experience at Calliote Canyon was wonderful. The house and accommodations are beautifully decorated and the grounds are exquisitely groomed really giving the feeling of an oasis. Calliote Canyon exudes peace and serenity while making you feel like you're at your own home. All the details have been thought through. The lounging areas, the common areas outside and near the running stream were the perfect place to enjoy the natural surrounding beauty. We will definitely return.
