A long-term dream realized one nail at a time, The Villas & Suites at Bernardus Lodge & Spa is poised to be the West Coast's most anticipated opening this summer, with 14 exclusive suites and villas designed from the ground up. Set on 28 acres of vineyards, gardens and fragrant lavender in Carmel Valley, this unparalleled new entry is set to raise the bar in luxury hospitality, July 1, 2016. Rates ranging from $950.00 to $2500.00; www.bernarduslodge.com.
Following the successful 2015 restoration of the Forbes Four-Star 57-guestroom Bernardus Lodge & Spa, the Villas will offer an exclusive experience deserving of the estate-style environment. Elegant and evocative - these stunning new lifestyle accommodations will transport guests to a private sanctuary paired with a three-to-one staff ratio focused on exceeding guests' expectations.
San Francisco Bay Area-based AXIS Architecture and ARCSINE, INC., interior design are credited with bringing vision to reality with a sophisticated ranch country-chic design. Reflecting Bernardus' inherent epicurean spirit and soothing soul, interiors are set in soft sand and celadon tones fused with punches of rich plum and metallic accents. Rustic European oak floors, cerused ebony furniture, dramatic weathered bronze chandeliers with antique silver leaf accents and soft honed limestone will be showcased throughout with focal features set in antique brass and hammered bronze. Custom hand-carved porcelain bathroom sinks and hand-crafted bamboo rugs set in sand, sable and soft coral point to the strong indoor/outdoor aesthetic, which includes alfresco showers set on hand-made Moroccan mosaic tile.
Curated for epicureans and romantics alike, highlights of the spacious 1050 sq., ft., to 2100 sq., ft., guest accommodations include outside fire pits, master baths featuring hammered copper free-standing soaking tubs, wet rooms with wall and rain showers, radiant heat floors, vaulted ceilings, French doors, wet bars, double-sided fireplaces and private bath patios and terraces featuring vineyard or Santa Lucia Mountain views.
Perennially recognized by discerning readers of Travel and Leisure's "World's Best Hotels" and Conde Nast Traveler's "Top Hotels" and as well as a Wine Spectator Grand Award recipient (2001-2014), this Forbes Travel Guide Four Star property has long set the gold standard for wine country vacationing. Originally opened in 1999 and restored in 2015, Bernardus Lodge and Spa is set on 28 pristine Carmel Valley acres awash with vineyards and lavender and boasts 57 luxurious guestrooms, the signature Spa at Bernardus Lodge, Lucia Restaurant & Bar, two swimming pools, an alfresco croquet and bocce court and 4,300 sq. ft. of meeting space.
