For grapes, dining, and outdoor lovers, Northern California's wine region is an ideal place to unwind after your wedding. Here are the sexiest honeymoon resorts in Napa.
Located in Sonoma-Napa wine country, the Farmhouse Inn is one of the world's most well-respected resorts. The boutique luxury hotel combines the outdoors and indoors with two-sided gas fireplaces, private patios, open-air corridors, and plenty of shared outdoor spaces. In addition to the spacious suites, the Inn possesses a 3,000-square-foot spa and Michelin-starred restaurant. The restaurant offers enchanting cuisine that features fresh, seasonal, locally sourced ingredients.

The centerpiece of Las Alcobas is the well-known Acacia House, a 1905 residence that has transformed into an upscale hotel and restaurant. The three-acre property fronts the neighboring Beringer Winery vines. The suites are light and airy, and they surround the pool and full-service spa. However, the most fantastic amenity is the location, just a stone's throw from the restaurants, tasting rooms, wineries, and downtown St. Helena shops.
When wine country beckons to me, I head to my favorite resort in Napa, Carneros Resort & Spa. This uniquely styled resort has 94 individual guest cottages and three full-service restaurants, two swimming pools, and a top-rated spa. The cabins themselves are heavenly, with intimate fireplaces, expansive patios with teak furnishings, and private outdoor spaces. A quiet afternoon at the spa, surrounded by rolling vineyards, will leave you feeling rejuvenated. Then, cap off an unforgettable day with dinner at FARM, which is Carneros' incredible restaurant.

There's much to love at Hotel Villagio at The Estate at Yountville with its enviable location in Napa, celebrated dining, and private hot-air balloon. The 22 suites are secret escapes, with wood-burning fireplaces, freestanding bathtubs, and French doors leading to sun-soaked patios overlooking the gorgeous valley. The spa offers rituals and full-body treatments intended to deepen the pampering experience.
With a delightful blend of rustic elegance and a cosmopolitan vibe, Vintage House welcomes guests like old friends. Spend lazy afternoons soaking up the sun near the pool—cozy up in one of the 80 lofts and bungalows. Sip the valley's finest wines in the sunlit Great Room. Its oversize windows and comfy sofas make the breathtaking space feel like home.
Jessie's Resort Tip: Create an intimate experience by enjoying the Caviar & Champagne Tasting Experience on your private balcony.
