Our stay was pleasant, but there were some major drawbacks that impacted our experience. The room we received was not what we expected, and we had to deal with cleanliness issues and a lack of responsiveness regarding our concerns. The dining options were enjoyable, and the outdoor spaces were a nice addition, but overall the value for money felt lacking given the initial expectations.
Rooms

We had high hopes for the villa, but found it to be quite dated and not as clean as we'd like. The layout was confusing, and the mattress was uncomfortable.

We recently stayed at Carneros for our anniversary, drawn by its promised retreat vibes and luxury. The setting was indeed beautiful, with cozy cottages and lovely grounds to wander. Unfortunately, our experience was marred by subpar service that didn't meet our expectations given the price. While we did enjoy the serene environment and great accommodations, the attentiveness of the staff left much to be desired.
Rooms

Our cottage was well-appointed, but it felt a bit outdated and smaller than expected for the price. The outdoor spaces with deck chairs and a fireplace were nice touches.
Service

I returned to Carneros expecting fond memories, but faced a few challenges during my stay. While the staff was friendly and accommodating, the room was not properly cleaned at check-in, which was quite disappointing. The location is beautiful, allowing for relaxing views over the vineyards, yet I felt the overall experience could have matched the price point better. I hope they can resolve these issues, as the amenities have great potential.
Rooms

My stay at the Carneros Resort and Spa was quite mixed. While the accommodations offered a luxurious feel with beautiful amenities, my overall experience was tainted by several service issues. I enjoyed the tranquil setting and the beautiful gardens, but I had significant concerns about the responsiveness of the staff and the dining experience at times.
