TLDR: 
 The resort is technically located in the northern town of Calistoga, which offers a rugged, laid-back, old-school agricultural vibe completely removed from the commercialized, heavily trafficked south side of Napa.  

On-Site Vineyard: It is the only hotel property in Napa Valley that features its own operational vineyard. The hip, forward winery on-site is masterminded by Thomas Rivers Brown, widely considered a top-five New World winemaker.  

The Airport Cheat Code: Skip SFO or Oakland. Flying into Santa Rosa Airport (STS)—a charming, Snoopy-themed regional airport—puts you a flat, traffic-free 20 miles and just a 35-minute drive away from the resort.  

Michelin Dining: The resort is home to Auro, the only Michelin-starred restaurant in Calistoga. It features a 7-course tasting menu paired with an astronomical 4,400-bottle wine program.  

Free Luxury Chauffeurs: The hotel features a complimentary house fleet of electric luxury vehicles (Lucid and Polestars) that will chauffeur you to downtown Calistoga or any local winery entirely for free.  

Free Childcare: Unlike competitors that charge up to $125/hour, the Four Seasons offers its Kids Club entirely complimentary from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM (with pre-booking).  

Room Features & Aesthetics: Every single guest room on the property comes equipped with its own private balcony and a fireplace. However, the website's photos are heavily brightened; first-floor rooms actually feature a very dark, cavernous residential aesthetic.  

No Expense Spared: The residential-style design includes ultra-premium plumbing fixtures from the luxury brand Waterworks, including individual shower heads valued at $4,500.  

Oprah’s Favorite English Muffins: Located just 15 to 20 minutes from the resort is the legendary Model Bakery, world-famous for its English muffins, which spent a long time featured on Oprah's "Favorite Things" list.
