Tucked within the rolling vineyards of California's Carmel Valley, Bernardus Lodge is an epicure's dream come true.
EXPERIENCE
Bernardus Lodge is best summed up in a single word: balance. Here, amidst the breathtaking scenery of California's famed wine country, you'll find indulgence unencumbered by excess.
It's easy to see why Bernardus Lodge is routinely ranked among the world's foremost country hotels, but even easier to taste. Restaurants include chef Cal Stamenov's award-winning Marinus, where fresh catches from nearby Monterey Bay are paired by the resident sommelier, and Wickets, where brick-oven pizzas and prime steaks come served with local vegetables.
Inevitably, one must digest - a function best achieved wrapped in Italian linens, lying atop a feather bed, and bathed in the flickering light of a stone fireplace. Each of Bernardus' 57 rooms - ranging in size from 525 to 1875 sq. ft. - has all three. You'll also enjoy your oversized bathtub for two, the perfect place to enjoy Bernardus' renowned Bordeaux-style red wine.
Try the Sauvignon Blanc, too. After all, you're on vacation.
