Also, If you don't care about your expensive wedding dress, it won't be worth a penny after your wedding since you will be dragging it in the soil before you get to the preachers podium. The landscape is embarrassing and unkempt. Granted, there are a few kool old cars and antiques, but unless you want to walk around in a dusty environment, it is not worth it to me. Also, the caterer ran out of food before the tenth table and I think there were at least twelve. On the positive side, the staff was friendly to the guests.

BE WARNED! - Potential Deposit Scam…read more My fiance and I found Mira Vista as a prospective wedding venue, and instantly fell in love. The property is beautiful. We got in contact with the property and excitedly put a deposit down with the property manager, Melanie Greer. Unfortunately, that is where the excitement ends. You hear the term "Bridezilla" often. I'm not sure what the property manger equivalent is, but Melanie has been a terror to deal with. In the contract, it states that all vendors must be approved- which is understandable. Soon after signing the contract, we realized this meant any vendor that is not in Melanie's circle would go through hell. We were very clear with our budget before signing the contract(you don't get the vendor list until after you sign). After receiving the list we realized that if we were to only use her vendors, we'd be able to afford 1/4th of a wedding. For example- for a wedding coordinator on Melanie's vendor list, the starting price for a "day of" coordinator is around 4k+, and did not allow contact until 2 months before the wedding. We found a wonderful coordinator, with 20 years of experience, available at any time, for around 2k. Melanie tried every excuse in the book to avoid approving her. One of her excuses was that our coordinator's "Santa Barbara business license wouldn't work in Paso Robles". Our coordinator could(and maybe should) have given up out of pure frustration. Luckily for us, she is a true professional. Our coordinator assembled a call with members of both city councils of Santa Barbara and Paso Robles(and her lawyer) and educated Melanie of her false statement. Our coordinator was finally approved. We were already beyond frustrated by working with Melanie, but took the win. Everything should be smooth from here out, right?? WRONG My fiance and her bride's maids planned a trip from Orange County to Paso Robles to visit the venue. The first attempt, Melanie confirmed, and then canceled. No big deal, she gave us a different weekend that would work for her, and offered my fiance a free Boudior shoot on location to make up for the inconvenience. My fiance and her bridesmaids drove up from Orange County Saturday morning 1/28, and stayed at an airbnb for the night, since the tour was in the morning. Today(1/29), my fiance recieved a call from Melanie, 30 minutes before the tour, stating that there were guests staying on the property for the weekend and that she could not see the venue. She asked if they could come at 1pm. She stated that she had no idea that there were guests until this morning. When she arrived to meet my fiance and her bridesmaids prior to the tour, she slipped up and stated she knew the day prior(she lied, let my fiance and her friends drive up, knowing that there were guests) I spoke with Melanie on the phone, and she blamed it on the rental company, and said that she specifically told them not to book guests for the weekend. I asked if I could see the email chain where she told them this. To my surprise, she did send me an email, but this email chain shows that she was aware there was a possibility of guests(there is an email from the rental company stating they didn't want to block out the weekend). During the meet up between Melanie, my fiance, her bridesmaids and our wedding coordinator, Melanie acknowledged there was a huge mistake, and that she would understand if we wanted to walk away(with half our deposit.). She made no attempt to remedy the situation, which leads me to belive she is purposely making this difficult in order to get us to pull out, while pocketing the deposit money. This is a new venue. Possible deposit scam. Beware. Like I said, the property is beautiful, but I wouldn't wish Melanie on anyone. You only get one special day, and unfortunately, we will still need to work with Melanie for ours. As she refuses to provide the property owners contact information, I am hoping they see this so they know what is going on.

I fell in love with Mira Vista Estate when looking for a wedding venue in Paso Robles. Melanie…read moreGreer was my point of contact and she has been very thorough with assisting with the whole wedding process! As we all know planning a wedding can get a little stressful. She has been very open with providing me with ideas of vendors and even helped us when we were struggling getting in touch with our caterers. I feel very lucky to be working so closely with someone who has such knowledge of Paso Robles. She also has an amazing heart, and just wants to see the couples just happy and stress free. Mira Vista Estate is stunning! I truly wish I could live there and have that breathtaking view each day!

Beautiful Italian style villa with only 7 suites. All the rooms are so large, luxurious and well…read morebuilt. Some have Romeo and Juliet balconies the rest have sitting balconies all overlooking the vineyard. The property is located in the rolling hills not far from the main road but tucked away enough to feel away from it all. The price point for the rooms is below the value received. There is not a restaurant on site, but they do provide a daily delicious breakfast in an indoor lovely setting that was included. They offer an extensive Sunday brunch for $39.00. Parking is sufficient for the number of suites and an EV charger is located in 2 stalls. The staff is accommodating. Allegretto vineyard and winery is just down the way with a lovely upscale restaurant if you don't want to go downtown which is 11 minutes away with a plethora of choices for dining and shopping. Can't wait to return to this gem. I did have a problem with booking through a third party service, so I would suggest booking directly to ensure your room is available.

My boyfriend and I came to Calipaso Winery for what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend getaway,…read moreand it has honestly been such a disappointing experience. When we checked in and got to our room, the property felt completely empty. We were the only guests we could see, which made the whole place feel eerie and uncomfortable. We walked around the entire property and saw no one. There were only three cars in the parking lot, including ours and the front desk employee's car, yet we were told they were "fully booked" when we asked about moving to a larger room. The room itself was not great. The bed is extremely hard and squeaks with every movement. On top of that, the AC does not work. We told the front desk before leaving for dinner about the AC and were told someone would come fix it. When we returned, the room was even hotter than before & it felt like walking into a sauna. The windows don't open, so the only way to get air in is by opening the doors, which obviously lets bugs in. The "free wine tasting" was also frustrating. At check-in, we were told that we would get complimentary tastings at the tasting room. When we went to the tasting room, we were told they were "too busy" for tastings and that we would need to buy glasses of wine instead. We didn't want to make a scene, so we ended up purchasing a bottle and a glass, which came out to $85 & we never received the tastings we were told were included with our stay. Overall, this has been a terrible experience. Between the uncomfortable room, broken AC, lack of guests/staff on the property, and being denied the complimentary tasting we were promised, I would not recommend staying here. Do not let the 4.6 rating fool you.

Scarlett Cougar discovered Villa San Juliette through the Pleasant Valley Wine Trail Twilight…read moreTasting -- and afterward completely understood why people speak so highly of the property. There's something wonderfully romantic about a winery that still feels connected to gathering, celebration, and genuine hospitality instead of simply "wine service." Learning more about Villa San Juliette's beautiful estate and welcoming atmosphere left such a lovely impression. I also love seeing wineries that continue contributing to the collaborative, community-centered spirit Paso Robles wine country is known for. Looking forward to future events and hopefully experiencing Villa San Juliette in person one day soon.

Owned by Nigel Lythgoe & Ken Warwick (American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance), they sometimes will make an appearance. But this is first class, and you'll feel a little like a celebrity by enjoying it here (and you could add British to the argument). It was 75 degrees with a cool breeze -- delightful. We shared a bottle of Rose Grenache while scarfing down some burgers and fries. Is that not perfect, or what? Smashburger & Fries [$25, 4.0 stars] -- I'd say, really good but not great. It was a 6 oz burger patty, not very smashed. Experts would say it should be 2 thin patties, smashed with crispy edges. Still, it stood on its own, was good, and the fries were devine. So, if you are reading this review of mine, what are you waiting for? Go already.
