Best Room At...Stanly Ranch
Nestled amidst the vineyards of Napa Valley, spanning over 700 acres of landscapes adorned with eucalyptus trees, grazing cattle, and meandering walking and biking trails, Stanly Ranch stands out, even in a region celebrated for its top-tier wineries, Michelin-starred dining establishments, and lavish accommodations.
From its farmhouse-inspired architecture that blends modern elegance with rustic charm to its amenities and exceptional dining options, Stanly Ranch embodies the very idea of a luxurious getaway. Guests at this retreat can spend days lounging by the pool, take chef-curated cooking classes, fish on the Napa River, or enjoy a treatment or two at the Halehouse Spa.
We spoke to Laura McIver, General Manager of Stanly Ranch, Auberge Resorts Collection, about why this resort is ideal for those seeking relaxation, adventure, or simply a taste of the good life.

How would you describe the guests and the vibe at the hotel?
Stanly Ranch is what we call the “new Napa.” The property offers exclusive access and one-of-a-kind adventures that are rooted in curiosity and discovery, is a wellbeing destination that goes beyond your average hotel spa, and boasts farm-driven, elemental cuisine that is unique in the area and sourced directly from our on-site culinary garden, The Grange. Stanly Ranch has something for everyone. Whether it’s a couple looking for a romantic getaway to enjoy private wine tastings and a couples spa treatment, a girls trip taking advantage of our gorgeous pool and unique circuit at Halehouse, or a family of all ages taking part of Little Ranchers Camp, the property truly has it all.
What feeling about the Napa Valley experience do you hope to impart to guests?
We hope that guests leave Stanly Ranch knowing that Napa Valley has so much more to offer than just wine tasting. While the food and wine are incredible, there are so many experiences available for guests of all ages and with any interest.
What's a local attraction that you always recommend?
Some of our guest’s favorite experiences include Lunchtime at the Coop, where you can gather around the coop for a midday ranch moment and learn about the chickens—hold them, pet them and feed them which is great for guests of all ages. Additionally, morning "hawk walks" are popular, which allow guests to observe hawks or falcons on property.
