My partner and I had an incredible 3 night stay. We booked the Sage room-that included its own balcony with a dinette and lounge sofa. A comfy king size bed, and an epic bathroom including a shower with impressive water pressure and a huge tub. The room was so inviting and smelled so fresh. We both agreed we haven’t felt more relaxed in a hotel room before. We loved the breakfast basket that was delivered to the room-we both chose chefs choice. The basket had quality healthy, feel good foods and fresh juices to get us ready for our day. I highly recommend adding the Well Delighted Full Moon Package-we chose the meat and cheese charcuterie board and everything on it was great quality, plus it was special to start our trip popping a bottle of champagne and a charcuterie board on the balcony seating. I highly recommend staying here. It was such a unique experience. We will absolutely stay here again.

My Girlfriend and I stayed two nights and were completely relaxed when we checked out. The soap making class was fun and educational, and we enjoyed a massage as well. The snacks and teas are all delicious. The bed was a bit low for older folks, but very comfortable. I don’t usually carry cash, and have trouble with Venmo, so tipping has been complicated, but that’s just a “me” thing ( don’t worry guys, I haven’t forgotten you)

Lovely Peaceful Property

Lovely property, actually better in person! Friendly hospitable & accomodating staff. Arrival and registration was tedious and time consuming. We were prompted upon arrival to complete breakfast menu selections. I understood breakfast was included in with the room price, therefore, very surprised to get billed significant added amount for breakfast. Understood that butter and other condiments could be chosen at added cost.

The room and property were nice but not like it’s shown online/IG. The garden was available for harvest but not well labeled or abundant enough. Staff were polite but not always approachable. The complimentary activities were minimal and for the price paid and destination fees, more could be provided, ie: bath kits/night versus one per stay. Also not advertised are the train tracks a block away so definitely not a good place for someone who is a light sleeper.

Had the best stay here. It’s an oasis and the little touches like the delicious local coffee, wonderful bath products and comfortable bed were really nice. Only two things that were not perfect: they only offer room service after 4 night stay. One reason I like a hotel over an air bb is so I feel like the room is fresh and cleaned when I get back at end of day. Also, was a bit noisy one afternoon - there was a kid on a loud motorbike going around in loops right next the property for an hour in the evening while we were sitting in our outdoor deck area. I realize it’s not the hotels fault but it was def ruining the peaceful mood and worth mentioning. Other than that it was such a wonderful experience. The common room with healthy snacks was a nice touch. There was always parking available and the quality of the linens was nice.
