Bernardus Lodge and Spa

When it comes to wine and wellness, Bernardus Lodge & Spa has you covered. A beautiful spa retreat within California's Carmel Valley, Bernardus is surrounded by rolling hills, vineyards and picture-perfect orchards and sits just a short distance from the artist community of Carmel-by-the Sea. This is a place to come and unwind, indulging in treatments offered by the spa and engaging in relaxing outdoor pursuits, savouring the delicious farm-to-table cuisine and simply taking the time to enjoy this idyllic spot at a leisurely pace.

A collection of 73 sophisticated rooms, suites and villas sits within the gardens, beautifully decorated with a keen attention to detail and a wonderfully rustic yet contemporary style. All rooms feature a fireplace, private garden or balcony, two-person soaking tub and high-quality linens gracing the plush king-sized beds, along with home comforts to include Nespresso coffee machines, HD TV, air-conditioning and a complimentary wine bar stocked with Bernardus wines.

Sourcing many ingredients from the property's organic gardens, the Lucia Restaurant & Bar serves up a menu of healthy dishes, all presented artfully alongside deliciously blended cocktails and wines from Bernardus' own vineyards.
