The Calistoga Ranch, It's a bit like escaping into the middle of a forest, but a luxurious version. Located in Napa Valley, this hotel offers a different experience: no rooms, but lodges. If you're looking for a place far from the world, where nature takes center stage, Calistoga Ranch is for you. A restaurant, a spa, of course, but also a swimming pool, a private wine cellar, a horseback riding trail... everything has been designed so that you don't need to leave the estate during your entire stay.

They are 48 lodges What does Calistoga Ranch offer? Each lodge is primarily made of wood and features floor-to-ceiling windows to admire the splendid surrounding nature. Deluxe, whether one or two bedrooms, the lodges are spacious, and we particularly love the bathrooms. These lodges have one thing in common: they all have an outdoor fireplace on the terrace, a real delight as soon as the nights get cool.

As in many establishments, the spa is a journey within the journey. The list of treatments It's downright dizzying, and it's almost impossible to stay at Calistoga Ranch without trying at least one. The mud wrap, «The Calistoga Ranch Mud Wrap,» is a must-do. For complete relaxation, some treatments last two hours. Of course, even if you don't want a treatment, you can lounge in the outdoor pools, surrounded by nature... in paradise!

The Lakehouse, the hotel's restaurant, offers refined cuisine paired with a wine cellar capable of delighting even the most discerning. It should be noted that some of the wines come from the hotel's estate. The dishes highlight seasonal and local products, and vegetarians have an interesting selection of dishes.

In a nutshell

  • A sublime hotel in the heart of nature.
  • Spacious lodges with an open-air feel.
  • The spa treatments are a must-try.
