We were greeted at breakfast every morning by charming Leticia who made us feel at home. The breakfast was amazing, with both buffet and hot to order food. There is also a nice bar and several sitting areas on the property. We had a rental car and there was valet parking which took all the stress away of having to find parking. There were countless wineries within 20-30 minutes. Don’t miss Rainbow’s End winery tucked into a small gorgeous valley. Also Tokara and Thelma wineries."
