Luxury, cuisine and nature

A view from above

Take off right after dawn and embark on an unforgettable hot air balloon ride as you ride the winds and enjoy amazing views of the Napa Valley's gentle landscape.

Set up at the spa

Hot springs and volcanic soil make Calistoga one of the top destinations for mud baths and treatments, so why not rejuvenate your skin and spirit at the spa?

Wine down

Almost every winery in the Napa Valley offers wine tours or tastings. Reserve a room tasting to sample a variety for less, or apply the tasting fee to any bottles purchased.

Come for the cuisine

Wine and food were made for each other, so try both at the region's world-class restaurants, or simply go on a picnic as you enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
