Real Honeymoon: Napa

Heather and her husband wanted their honeymoon to be a bit of a road adventure that included some of the things they love: wine, food, and natural beauty.  When they saw the Carneros Inn in Napa, CA on the list of options I sent to them, they wanted to stay there the second they saw the photos.


Napa ended up being the perfect destination for them - gorgeous natural beauty and close to home but far from busy Los Angeles. "The people in Napa were sweet and generous.  The food was some of the best we've ever had and we loved that so many restaurants supported local farmers," says Heather.


They also loved the special honeymoon amenities they received, "We got a free nights' stay at the Carneros Inn and were delighted at all the free champagne!  Every restaurant or pool-side lounge on the hotel property offered us free bubbly with every visit.  All Carneros Inn guests were treated handsomely at local wineries too, with free wine tastings and discounts."


For those couples who are normally busy or have hectic schedules, I recommend that couples plan their destination, hotel and little else, "My husband and I are busy bodies, but we were surprised at how little we wanted to do.  It was nice planning the day's activities based on how we felt when we woke up."

They truly loved Napa and the Carneros Inn - it was a peaceful, restful and delicious way to spend their honeymoon!
