"Eco friendly property in a beautiful, lush, and tranquil environment. The staff was exceptional in making me feel welcomed, and ensuring that all of my needs and expectations were met. The meals were delicious and I even had the pleasure of meeting the owner who took time out of his day to have coffee with me and tell me the history of the property. They made me feel like I was a part of the family. I also enjoyed bird watching and the coffee farm tour. A great place to unplug and reconnect with...

What's the difference between 5-star and 4-star hotels in Central Valley?
If you decide to book a stay at a 4-star hotel in Central Valley, you'll usually find lots of amenities to make sure you're comfortable, such as a pool, gym and restaurant. You can enjoy high-quality service and upscale surroundings. Go for a 5-star hotel and you'll get a few more bells and whistles — think on-site spas, 24-hour front desk and opulent turndown services. You're likely to get additional amenities and exclusive services at a 5-star getaway, though both are superb options for luxury travelers.
