From check in to check out the staff and grounds were impeccable! Lim the manager is so kind and she makes sure you have a great experience. All the staff works hard, and goes over and beyond to exceed with thought. Our room was beautiful and the scenery was the prettiest ever! The heated pool was so much fun! And we were able to meet new people and make friends. The fresh cookies baked were a plus, we loved the espresso machine and water taps all over the property. Between 5-6pm There is a wine hour! With a free tasting and snacks. You really do not need to go anywhere, there are restaurants in 2-10 minutes with an uber drive. I absolutely love this place so much. I want to come back soon.

After a few days here, I can say we especially enjoyed taking advantage of the Sonoma sunshine with pool time, lounging, and relaxing. A few things that stood out: * A pretty good midweek (& last minute) room price * An included breakfast bar * Plenty of pool towels * A large jacuzzi with waterfall open around the clock * Port wine and homemade cookies in the evenings * Local Wine tasting onsite from 5 to 6 pm * Multiple public fireplaces * Coffee bars and water & sparkling water There are many little touches that make it easy to settle in. Full disclosure, I am in their target demographic, wanting a comfortable, low key getaway with thoughtful amenities. Particularly good for a midweek stay and can get pricey otherwise. Sometimes an unexpected change of plans turns out surprisingly well.

Done…read more There is a Gawd...and he created Beltane Ranch for all you non-believin' Marriott Masses to get yo-selves edu-muh-cated about what true hospitality looks like. Don't need to perform no good deeds or un-covet thy neighbor's latest-model oxen to get into heaven. It's right here at Beltane. No virtue required, just your credit card. The decor is Farmhouse Done Right. While most B&Bs look (and smell) like it came straight out of Funeral Parlor Digest, featuring all the furniture that your Depression-era Grandma couldn't even offload at the thrift store, Beltane Ranch delivers Vintage Classy perfectly suited for modern sensibilities. Charming, tasteful, and unassumingly elegant, Beltane captures the elusive vibe of Home Nostalgia that sends you back to a cozy time before the internet (but after penicillin). And did I mention the wrap-around porch is the stuff of Louisiana-level Luxury Lazy? Now I'm all for the happy pursuit of property rights as much as the next corn-fed American, but--with all due respect and with the highest of praise--Beltane makes me want to be a squatter. In fact, I'll just let 'em know that I ain't leaving, and let the Sonoma County sheriff physically drag me off premise--Gaza 2005 style. Thank you, Beltane Ranch. For once in my Chinese life, I'm glad someone took my money.

Choosing Beltane Ranch as our wedding venue was honestly the best decision we made in our entire…read moreplanning process. We looked at a lot of venues all over California and when we visited Beltane we knew it had to be there. We were looking for a venue that had nearby guest accommodations (200+ person wedding) but would allow for us to stay on site with our families and really slow down and enjoy that time with them. Beltane has a magic about it that can't be quantified and it's from the care that Lauren & the entire team put into every detail. We stayed with both of our families Thursday - Monday and hosted our rehearsal dinner there on Thursday night. The food was incredible thanks to Chef Neil, every detail was so thoughtful, and the whole thing just flowed. Our families felt completely at home. The rooms are beautiful, the grounds are stunning, and we couldn't have been more relaxed. Lauren, Alexandria, Elise, Angie, Brian and the entire team are the best at what they do. They were flexible, responsive, and genuinely cared about making our weekend special. In an industry full of venues that feel impersonal and transactional, Beltane is the epitome of warmth and personality. We can't recommend Beltane enough.

From the get go, the manager and workers were all so friendly and helpful. There were initially some issues with dynamic pricing, but they were able to correct things on the back end, which was much appreciated. The main building and breakfast area are both very warm and inviting. The couches and seats are comfortable. There are games and books in the cabinet areas too. The chef provides a tasty breakfast each day, with the menu slightly changing. There is coffee, tea, and hot/cool water available all day. It can get a little crowded at breakfast, so if you are in a large group, go either very early or very late. The afternoon happy hour is pretty relaxed with some offerings of cheese, crackers, and wine. Be sure to ask for gluten-free options, as they have them available. They also prepared nice chocolates for my parents (anniversary) and a cookie for my nephew (birthday), which was a lovely touch. The rooms are fine, some are a little darker and/more dated, but that didn't bother us. The one thing that I would've done differently, is to bring an eye mask and ear plugs. Depending on where your room is located, you could be facing the main street. The doors in certain buildings would slam pretty loudly, so if you had neighbors returning late at night, you would definitely hear them. I am a little fussy with beds, and I found the Vitners King (seemed more like a Cali King?) bed to be a little firm and transferred movement easily. We would consider splurging for the updated rooms next time. Bonus that they have cruiser bikes to borrow. It was very nice to go for a quick ride one of the mornings. The location is fantastic, it's within walking distance to downtown. There are so many great restaurants to visit. In addition, wineries and parks are also a close drive away. Overall a great place to stay and we really enjoyed our visit, thank you!

Without going into a lengthy explanation, there was some confusion regarding the rate I was quoted when I arrived. However, **the rate itself is not the reason for this poor review**. My disappointment was with the way General Manager Sara Martin handled the situation when I asked to discuss it. Had the situation been handled differently, I likely would have simply accepted the misunderstanding and continued my stay. Instead, I felt the response was essentially a "take it or leave it" attitude, so I chose option #2. I shortened my stay and found another hotel. I have stayed at this property many times over the years and have always enjoyed it. As a business owner myself, I understand that misunderstandings and problems happen. What matters is how management responds when they do. I believe part of management's responsibility is to listen to the customer and, when possible, try to find a reasonable solution that works for everyone. Unfortunately, I did not feel there was any real attempt to do that in this situation. I'm not sure where things will go from here, but what disappoints me most is feeling that I may have lost a very nice hotel option that I have enjoyed and returned to for many years. I would have much preferred to leave another positive review and continue being a returning guest.

Just paid another visit to the Olea Hotel for my husband's birthday. Still love this place but it's…read morestarting to lose some of the charm it once had. But first, the good: their accommodations remain fabulous. We stayed in the Upper Poolside Cottage (Room 10) and it's just wonderful. The Comphy sheets are just heaven. Their bath towels are also plush and luxurious. Two thumbs up for in-room linens! Heated floors in the bathroom and 2-sided fireplace provide nice warmth and comfort. Complimentary snacks and fizzy water in the mini fridge are a nice bonus, too. The poolside cottages are the cat's meow, and just a short hop to the pool and hot tub. But there are several things that I noted during our last visit that made me feel like maybe this may have been our last visit to the Olea. First, there was a goodly amount of trash strewn about the property. At the hot tub, there was a wine bottle cap on the bench (I know, wine country, to be expected, right?), but what truly grossed me out was the wad of used athletic wrap right next to the hot tub. Blech! As I grabbed both of these items and took them to the trash (all of five or six steps from where they had been scattered), I noticed even more bits of trash in the corner area near the planters. Like more trash than would be expected by just one party being messy. (Also, the planter area was weedy and just seemed neglected.) I dismissed it as just not getting some needed attention, until I returned to our cottage and noticed several more pieces of trash right by our front door that I had missed earlier. And apparently so did housekeeping and management. Plus broken tree limbs atop the roof of the main building. And a huge rip in one of the pool lounge chair pads. And a very large hole (~3") in a pool towel. Just signs of general neglect and subpar for this place, especially at their price point. Second and perhaps even more disappointing is how much the included breakfast service has changed. It's gone from a 2-course, made-in-house gourmet affair to a continental style DYI breakfast, apparently now even on the weekends. The only thing made to order is the avocado toast (for obvious reasons). For those guests who hadn't enjoyed the previous offerings, perhaps it doesn't seem too bad. Nice spread. But I sorely miss the delectable morning meals and the awesome homemade chai along with the service for breakfast. I'd give this an updated 3.5 stars but will round up to 4 because I still really want to love this place. Also, Star provided friendly and welcoming service at the front desk, which was appreciated.

The location couldn't be better--within easy walking distance to tasting rooms, cafes, and even a Michelin-starred restaurant. It's also just a short drive to several wineries and the stunning Jack London State Park.

The tub was conveniently located in the main room with a view of the large screen TV which also could be pulled out from the wall and angled towards the tub and bed. We were a little confused about how the tv worked since it seemed that other guests were signed in to the streaming platforms, but that was likely user error. Perhaps a little note about logging in to streaming services next to the TV might be useful for others in the future. We were also able to access live channels. The room was clean, and had a microwave and mini fridge for our leftovers after eating out or for small grocery items from CalMart. The location is great and a short walk to downtown Calistoga. We were provided with robes at check in which were useful for the hot tubs and pools. There are two mineral water hot tubs of different temperatures and one large mineral pool for swimming. There are showers and changing rooms available in the pool area as well. They provided bicycles and helmets that we could take to ride during the desk hours. We would definitely stay here again.
