First time we’ve had a room not ready by check in time at 4. Beautiful place but for over $450 a night, breakfast or a free bottle of wine would make it much more worth it. I’ve stayed in many similar winery bungalows that after the fact you say that was worth it, not the same here. Pros-beautiful view, location next to wineries. Cons-no water pressure in shower and bed was a pull out couch. Not the most comfortable mattress. For that much money for me at least not worth the stay.

We had a pleasant stay overall! Check-in was quick and easy, and we loved the beautiful view of the vineyard from our room. The only downside was that the rooms felt a bit outdated and could use some updates. Still, the peaceful setting made for a relaxing visit.
