Where to Stay

Alila

Alila in Napa Valley’s charming St. Helena area is an adults-only retreat featuring 68 rooms, many of which have outdoor terraces perfect for yoga, meditation, and relaxation. What really sets Alila apart from other wellness-focused retreats is their “Alila Journeys.” Each one, from forest bathing among the Redwoods to sound healing and scent memory classes with an Aftel-trained perfume expert, is designed to be a uniquely restorative experience. The hotel is also within walking distance of the historic Beringer Vineyards, since no wellness weekend in Wine Country is complete without at least a few sips of world-class wine.
