Carneros Resort and Spa  

In California's Napa Valley, set among vineyards and rural lanes about 6 km from downtown Napa. Close to Domaine Carneros, Di Rosa, Artesa Winery and Oxbow Public Market, this family-friendly spa resort puts wine-country sights within easy reach.

A boutique hideaway of cottages and private homes — roughly 86 cottages including connected-suite pairs and additional private residences. Rooms feature private gardens and furnished patios, fireplaces, pillowtop beds with Frette Italian sheets, deep soaking tubs and rainfall showers; select cottages even offer romantic outdoor showers and local artwork accents.

Two outdoor pools — an adults-only heated infinity pool plus a family pool and children's pool — plus a hot tub. Full-service spa with massage, sauna and steam bath, fitness center, attached winery, outdoor lounge and poolside bar. Café and al fresco dining, chef-prepared picnic service for winery days, and concierge-run tours. Wake up to vine-swept mornings and wander private garden patios.

About 5,000 sq ft of event space with multiple meeting rooms for conferences and private events. Complimentary high-speed wired internet, valet and limo/town-car options, express check-in and airport shuttle available on request.

Three on-site dining outlets — including Boon Fly Cafe — plus a coffee shop, bars and poolside service. Menus emphasize local organic produce, with cooked-to-order breakfasts, 24-hour room service and a daily complimentary reception. The chef prepares picnic lunches perfect for vineyard excursions.
