A modern building with a stone courtyard, large rocks, and a wooden deck.

Bardessono Hotel and Spa

Yountville

10/10 Excellent

One of our favorite hotels in the world and we travel to a lot of them. Close to 'town' (it is a very small town), great restaurants (walking distance) and very close to many of the best wineries but feels completely exclusive and excluded from any traffic. The common areas, the rooms, the gardens, are all gorgeous, well thought out, and a pleasure. The pool area and breakfast are a bit of a miss (service is spotty) but only in comparison to what is absolute perfection everywhere else on the...

Wonderful Stay at Firefall Ranch Yosemite! I recently stayed at the 3-bedroom cottage at Firefall Ranch Yosemite, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience.

The service was outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The cottage itself is nestled in a beautiful, serene location, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The surrounding nature added...

Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa

Aviara

10/10 Excellent

We found a super last minute deal on expedia for this high end hotel. They allowed our dog to stay for $150 for 11 nights and so this was great! Staff was friendly and the room was clean and cozy. Great location that is close to jogging trails, beaches, nice little town of Encinatas and the beaches. Definitely would recommend this to others and stay again if the price was right! I would take note on the valet parking as this is an added fee of $35 a night! You can park down the hill and walk up...
