Nestled in picturesque Napa Valley, this chic resort features luxe cottages with private patios, a top-notch spa, and multiple pools, creating a perfect escape.
"Smack in the middle of Napa Valley, the area is surrounded by grapevines, making it feel more like you’re staying on a vineyard than a typical resort. Even the main building is barn-like, and the cottages and courtyard rooms are set up in little cul-de-sacs, giving off a kind of mini-neighborhood feel. The airy rooms continue the luxe countryside vibe, each with its own fireplace and French doors leading out onto stone patios and manicured gardens. You may not need to leave the resort at all, as there’s a mock Town Square with a Market, and the restaurant Farm books local bands and musicians to play while they serve up seasonally inspired menus utilizing the hotel's gardens and orchards."
"Carneros Resort and Spa is rather more modern than the Tuscan-Provençal style that seems to dominate California wine country. Its style is a sort of rustic minimalism, with inspiration seemingly drawn from the American Midwest and Northeast. The corrugated metal roofs of the cottages are striking and unassuming at the same time, and fit well into the landscape of rolling hills and wide-open farmland." - Mark Fedeli

"Taking cues from the rolling hills, vineyards, and ranchers hauling hay bales along the adjacent highway, the modern country-influenced resort is peppered with 100 free-standing cottages arranged in neighborhood-like configurations with vaulted ceilings, fireplaces, heated bathroom floors, and individual front porches with rocking chairs; a spa exclusive to resort guests; a 3,000-square-foot fitness center; two pickleball courts with an adjoining Veuve Clicquot Champagne Bar & Lounge; a family-friendly pool; and an adults-only heated outdoor pool perched on a hilltop overlooking the Valley. Quench your thirst by sampling local wines in the newly opened tasting room, Post, or dine in one of three on-site eateries. Guests can also enjoy a daily complimentary breakfast buffet with selections prepared by executive chef Jeffrey Jake." - Jennie Nunn
"Chris Bianco announced he’d take the helm at several food outlets on the Carneros Resort and Spa property. The newly redone menu at the property’s restaurant Farm will debut on December 8." - Paolo Bicchieri
