MEADOWOOD

More open than a family estate.
More private than a resort.

1961

A gathering place, private club, and intimate country hotel for generations, our 250-acre wine-country estate invites our guests into the family and community life of Napa Valley.

Rooted deeply in Napa Valley history, culture, and heritage, Meadowood Napa Valley welcomes guests into the fold of our private valley and the flourishing way of life it sustains, close to nature, in tune with the rhythm of the seasons. At once wild and refined, pristine and sophisticated, with elegant amenities that recall the civilized simplicity of earlier times, the estate unfolds from the ridges of its surrounding mountains through wooded canyons and rows of vineyards to the Napa River’s edge. This tranquil sanctuary epitomizes the essence of the Napa resort & spa experience, offering a harmonious blend of luxury, relaxation, and rejuvenation amidst breathtaking natural beauty.

A Story of Place

Meadowood has evolved in parallel with the history of the settlement of California. As San Francisco has transformed from a fledgling port to an international center of culture and innovation, Napa Valley, just an hour’s drive north, has emerged as one of the world’s most prestigious winegrowing regions.

Since the current owner acquired Meadowood in 1979, it has served as a gathering place for Napa Valley residents and common ground for local vintners and winegrowers. Over the years, our lodging has evolved gradually in ways that respect the estate’s original character, agricultural heritage, natural surroundings, layered legacy, and place at the community’s heart.
