Почему людям нравится

Краткий обзор: A luxurious, quiet sanctuary that nails the 'farm-chic' aesthetic but occasionally stumbles on practical room design (hello, gap-toothed barn doors).
Подтверждено @thestephmarx: I took my dog to Sonoma for a weekend recharge and this spot blew us away. The grounds are stunning in the fall, and having a fire pit right outside our room made the evenings so cozy. It’s rare to find luxury this high-end that’s truly pet-friendly.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the resort fee worth it?
Surprisingly, yes. At ~$59/night, it covers valet (usually $40+ elsewhere), e-bikes, yoga, and a well-stocked in-room snack basket.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, very. $150 per stay fee. They provide beds, bowls, and treats, but pets can't be left unattended in rooms.
Do all rooms have bathtubs?
No. Standard rooms often have showers only. You must book a Suite or specific Cottage to guarantee a tub.
How far is the walk to town?
It's a pleasant 10-15 minute flat walk to Sonoma Plaza. Or take the free e-bikes for a 5-minute ride.
Is the pool adults-only?
No, it is family-friendly, though the vibe is generally quiet and adult-centric.
What is the bathroom privacy situation?
Many rooms feature sliding barn doors with gaps. If you need soundproof privacy, this might be an issue.
