Kenwood Inn & Spa, A Romantic Tuscan Style Villa

This handsome, romantic inn is an Italian-style country break in the heart of Sonoma; the lovely courtyard overlooking the vineyard is modeled after St Andrew's Church in Amalfi.

The 29 rooms are decked out in opulent style with dark wood furnishings and bright colored fabrics; book a room on the second floor for amazing views across wine country. Insider Amie O'Shaughnessy, who was married here, says,"staying in the original rooms at the Kenwood Inn is like staying at a Tuscan villa. The impossibly cozy beds and warm decor make this property the ultimate romantic getaway." After the legendary three-course breakfast, head out to some of Sonoma's boutique wineries for tasting and buying. Try the cooking classes at the inn. Siesta en plein air and chill in the small spa. Service can be a bit patchy I hear, but this is still a great wine country getaway. 20 miles from San Francisco Airport.

Room rates from $250.
