Tucked away in the heart of Napa Valley, completely enveloped in all directions by lush greenery, Meadowood is a secluded hideaway of opulent proportions. You won’t find any flashy signs or over-the-top amenities here. Meadowood takes a different approach to luxury with simplistically elegant suites, private, intimate spaces, and seemingly-endless leisure activities that connect guests with nature and more importantly, their travel companions.
While families, groups of friends, and even solo travelers appreciate all that Meadowood has to offer, the sprawling estate stands out as a destination for couples looking to keep the romance alive. The gorgeous rooms and suites make for the perfect place to set the mood, with most featuring California king beds, soaking tubs, outdoor patios and cozy fireplaces. Each accommodation also comes with complimentary perks such as car service to downtown St. Helena and Yountville (upon request), high-speed Wi-Fi, access to the fitness center and daily classes, and on-site parking.
The Restaurant at Meadowood, the resort's Michelin three-star dining venue, speaks to the area in which it is located, by curating each dish using locally-sourced ingredients, all delivered in a singular experience. When a guest calls to make a reservation, there is a discussion right then and there regarding their preferences, experience and allergies. From there, a menu is created for each table, making for a special epicurean experience like none other.
In addition to The Restaurant, guests can also sit down for cocktails, wine and snacks at The Restaurant Bar, or enjoy a more intimate meal for up to 12 guests in the beautiful private dining room. For a more casual option, The Grill features seasonal menus based on produce grown and picked from the property’s own garden. Or take a page right out of a fairy tale by allowing the resort’s staff to pack a picnic for two to be savored in your choice of scenic spots around the estate and beyond in the valley.
What would a Napa Valley resort be without offering its guests the opportunity to taste some of the valley's wonderful wines? Each and every afternoon, guests are welcome to a wine tasting reception where they’ll sip on local white and red varieties, mingle with fellow guests, and listen to anecdotes about the many Napa Valley vintners who have made wine their life’s work. Friday afternoons provide a time to enjoy sparkling wines and, of course, a toast to the relaxing and memorable weekend that lays ahead.
Outdoor activities abound, whether a guest’s preference is to simply take it easy or break a sweat. Besides the fitness center and its many classes on offer, croquet, swimming, tennis, hiking trails and a nine-hole walking golf course with golf studio and driving range are open to the property’s overnight guests and members. The new Meadowood Spa is set to open fall 2015, and will feature 8,000 square feet of interior space including treatment rooms, relaxation areas, retail, and 6,000 square feet of outdoor space containing more lounge areas and fragrant gardens.
Tasteful suites, award-winning dining, regional wines, outdoor adventures, and romantic retreats—Meadowood pulls out all the stops to make guests feel truly special as soon as they arrive through the front gates. Your authentic Napa Valley getaway awaits.
