Ojai Retreat & Inn Policies
Please read our policies below when booking your stay. Thank you.
In order to ensure tranquility:
- NO CHILDREN UNDER 12, NO TVS, NO PETS
- Children over 12 years of age are welcome when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
- No pets except ADA dogs that have been specifically trained to perform a task you can no longer do for yourself (ADA definition of a service dog).
- Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities. Examples of such work or tasks include guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, pulling a wheelchair, alerting and protecting a person who is having a seizure, reminding a person with mental illness to take prescribed medications, calming a person with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) during an anxiety attack, or performing other duties. Service animals are working animals, not pets. The work or task a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA.
