Rancho Caymus Inn - Deluxe King

DeepakRating, 5 stars20 months ago

Great experience for our visit to Napa. Centrally located to most vineyards. Very peaceful and tranquil place. Limited access to restaurants. Have to drive. Also, limited access to workouts etc., no close area to go for a run or walk etc., as long as you are ok with running on the Main Street with cars zooming by. Overall, great staff and ambience. We thought it was a little high on the price for the room.

The pictures don’t do it justice. We had a beautiful balcony with a fire pit and sofas. And then the next morning was an amazing breakfast with the chef cooking right in front of you. A glass of wine while checking in and then set off as everything is walking distance!!! Location is just amazing. Definitely an amazing and different experience than your normal Airbnb. This is the way to do Napa!
