Santa Rosa Valley is a rural unincorporated community, named after the eponymous valley in which it lies, located in Ventura County, California, United States. For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined Santa Rosa Valley as a census-designated place (CDP).

Santa Rosa Valley sits at an elevation of 433 feet (132 m).

It is a portion of the City of Camarillo, and is located right north of Newbury Park, between Thousand Oaks and Camarillo. Norwegian Grade connects Santa Rosa Valley to Thousand Oaks, while it may be reached from Santa Rosa Road in Camarillo, CA.

The Santa Rosa Valley lies right north of the Conejo Valley and along the Arroyo Santa Rosa and Arroyo Conejo. Most of the area consists of agricultural lands and it is home to a variety of wildlife such as bobcats, gray foxes, mule deer, coyotes, and more. The valley is likely the habitat for more than one Mountain lion, and lions are relatively often observed here. Immediately to the south is the Conejo Canyons Open Space, with trails leading to the Arroyo Conejo Nature Preserve (La Branca) and Hill Canyon, and the community also borders the Mountclef Ridge of Wildwood Regional Park to the south.
