It’s always a good time to go to Wine Country with your loved one, but there’s something extra romantic about the changing of the seasons, particularly as the cooler months draw near. Fall brings the excitement of harvest, not to mention an epic visual display of gold and red in the vineyards, while winter ushers in quieter times with fewer crowds. So whether you’re looking for a chic, downtown boutique hotel, a sprawling vineyard estate, or sumptuous spa treatments on property, we’ve rounded up the top Napa Valley hotels for your next romantic Wine Country getaway.

Carneros Resort and Spa

Ever wanted to feel what it might be like living in the beautiful Napa Valley? Carneros Resort offers individual private cottages, perfect for you and your partner to have a truly romantic getaway.

Get lost in each other’s company in front of the fire, or shower under the sun or stars in a privately enclosed outdoor shower. When venturing out of your room, you’ll find two luxurious pools, a spa, several restaurants, and a market — everything needed for a romantic stay in Wine Country.

Meadowood Napa Valley

As a guest staying at Meadowood Napa Valley, you’ll be surrounded by nature on this pristine, 250-acre Wine Country estate; rooms, suites, and lodges are tucked away along the hillside just outside of St. Helena, lending to the feeling of romantic isolation. Here, you can enjoy resort amenities such as golf, tennis, and croquet, venture out on a scenic hike on the property and end it with a romantic picnic, or simply take a day to enjoy everything their restorative spa has to offer. Book a luxurious treatment in the private Treehouse Retreat, which includes a fireplace and a hand-hammered copper tub for custom baths, and is partly open to the elements — a testament to the resort’s focus on both indoor and outdoor living. Feeling like some sustenance in between all that relaxation? You and your loved-one can opt to enjoy a glass of sparkling and dine-in from the Spa’s culinary menu without ever leaving this zen, intimate sanctum, or head to Forum, Meadowood’s on-site restaurant focused on local ingredients and exquisite wine, for a memorable dinner for two.
