(TAN): Four Seasons Resort and Residences Napa Valley will welcome its first arrivals in early spring 2021 in the heart of California’s famed wine region.

The new resort is located at 400 Silverado Trail in the quaint town of Calistoga, tucked into the base of Mount Saint Helena at the top of Napa Valley and surrounded by hundreds of acres of vineyards. Calistoga beckons a sense of discovery with its rich history, natural hot springs, mud baths, and laid-back lifestyle, just 90 minutes and yet a world away from San Francisco, the Bay Area and Sacramento. Accommodations at Four Seasons Resort and Residences Napa Valley are sanctuaries, with each room boasting breath-taking views, fireplaces, private terraces and design by one of the world’s most celebrated interior designers, Erin Martin, in conjunction with Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA).
With 85 spacious guest rooms, one-bedroom suites, and The Estate Villa – a nearly 3,400-square-foot (315 square metre) free-standing building nestled at the edge of the on-site vineyard – the resort is touted as an intimate retreat that invites guests to explore the lush nature and natural beauty that surrounds it.
“Four Seasons Resort and Residences Napa Valley is the only property in the region that sits on an active winery, so guests will be afforded a true grape-to-glass experience in illustrious wine country,” says Director of Marketing Kelly Nelson. “The resort will afford guests unique opportunities to taste complex, age-worthy wines and enjoy immersive, hands-on and educational experiences and tasting sessions steps from their rooms.”
