Vibe
Standalone cottages with corrugated metal roofs dot twenty-eight vineyard acres, connected by gravel lanes, culinary gardens, and cruiser bikes.
“Agrarian cottage hideaway”
Fireside butlers light cottage fire pits and fill soaking tubs on request.
Spa offers steam rooms, infrared saunas, and couples suites; plus a fitness studio and pools.
Twenty-eight vineyard acres feature two pools, pickleball courts, loaner cruiser bikes, and multiple dining venues.
Across twenty-eight acres of Carneros vineyards, five miles southwest of downtown Napa.
“The cottages are modern yet cozy with a farmhouse appeal, whitewashed walls, bright white and cream linens, wood floors and electric fireplaces.”
Rooms
Modern farmhouse cottages feature private landscaped courtyards with gas fire pits, deep soaking tubs, and open-air outdoor showers.
Wellness
An adults-only hilltop pool overlooks the vines, while the spa adds eucalyptus steam rooms, infrared saunas, and garden treatment suites.
Eat & drink
Farm-to-table dining at FARM draws from on-site gardens, alongside roadhouse comfort food and fresh donuts at Boon Fly Café.
The neighborhood
Straddling the Napa and Sonoma county lines, the resort sits five miles southwest of downtown Napa amid rolling Carneros vineyards.

The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
