    Walking the grounds
    Stevi B.

    I've been to Wine & Roses several times in the past for work meetings, but last month was the first time I actually had the opportunity to stay and check out the grounds. My coaches got me a gift certificate so I decided to use it for a one night staycation. Best decision I could have made! The grounds are just beautiful, so I took a few walks around throughout my stay, and also found a place to sit and read for a while. My room was next to the pool so I got to take advantage of the jacuzzi with ease as well. There are exotic birds in a few areas of the grounds that are really pretty (and quite chatty!) The staff was friendly and helpful, bed was comfortable and the stay was very enjoyable. I hope to have the opportunity to stay again!

    I came back for my 3rd visit this year. And while I overall still had an amazing times. I definitely ran into some issues. 1. The booking system. I was told it can no longer keep my card on file. So I have to keep adding my info with each visit. Kind of an odd thing? 2. I was booked incorrectly. When I came in September I asked for another appointment with the same massage therapist (Thomas). The appointment was scheduled. But I never got a confirmation email. I ended up calling to confirm I had an appointment. And then when I came here over the weekend. My massage therapist wasn't Thomas. The massage therapist said it was booked as "Any male therapist" It was awkward. And not his fault. The therapist. Forgot his name but he was fantastic. Amazing experience. It was just disappointing to not get what I had originally wanted.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Wine and Roses Hotel. I am not sure when they changed their name to Appellation but this was our second stay within the past year. The service is on point and extremely attentive. The grounds are absolutely beautiful all throughout the year. Private and tranquil adorned with fruit trees and foliage. The have a garden and the campus is quite extensive. We like to get the suites located near the spa so that when booking a spa appointment we don't have to walk far. The pool is a distance away but it too is tranquil and secluded. The spa is extraordinary and allows for couples massages and couples spa treatments and you are granted 2 hours to enjoy the spa premises if you book a service. The cafe is also quite scrumptious with fresh bread, pastries etc. and assorted drinks. We tried the restaurant our last visit and the service was outstanding but they were under construction so we will attempt to try it again once on our next visit. The environment makes you feel as though you have escaped the hustle and bustle by just taking a short drive to this oasis especially if you are from the Bay Area.

    Wine and Roses is an amazing hotel that started as a bed and breakfast in Lodi. It has whimsy and charm during all seasons and their food is incredible! They work hard to bring in the local community for food or wine nights alongside their cafe that people stop by for fun on any given day. Their spa is an escape from the every day and is surrounded by beauty. We have stayed here and felt cared for from our check-in to our checkout. But the most incredible moment was having our wedding in their Garden Ballroom! This is a stunning venue for weddings and they are LGBTQIA+ friendly and really made us feel seen and welcomed. We felt valued as people and as customers. For us, it felt like they went above and beyond to take care of us all the way through our wedding day! Our Wedding Coordinator, Colleen, was a miracle worker through all of the ups and downs of event planning. She continued to support us and lift us up through each moment. We are beyond grateful for her guidance in making our vision and dream come true!

    Entry to the couples massage room

    Used to love this place but not much to offer the customers. They have a tranquility room the fire place wasn't on so it didn't set a mood. They offer inside there hot tea ,granola , and fresh apples. There is a cold plunge that wasn't that cold and a hot tub and a firepit outside. They don't offer any wine or champagne or any appetizers only complimentary water to stay hydrated. However our masseuse was amazing they did a wonderful job!!! just know they only give you two hours there, after or before massage to enjoy the facility but even then that may seem long since not much to enjoy here. Nice clean showers!

    I've come here a few times for weddings and for the spa, but this was my first time eating here at the restaurant. We came to celebrate a bridal shower and loved our set up as well as live music. We all ordered the pink dragon cocktail and loved it so much, we ordered a second round. I ordered the steak & eggs and my daughter got the waffles. To my surprise, the waffle from the kid's menu was like an adult portion. Not complaining at all because I knew I was gonna help her eat it anyway. The steak & eggs were delicious as well! Our waiter and waitress were amazing! I would definitely return to enjoy other things!

    The newly rebranded Åppelation Wine and roses hotel is very conveniently located within the heart of Lodi wine county. This is one of the only lodging options in the direct vicinity. The gardens, event sites (wedding or event rooms/gardens), pool and fitness center are quite nice. There are even a few resident exotic birds that live on site. The hotel room itself is pleasantly appointed. The reason I give four stars instead of five is because the pillows are terribly uncomfortable (synthetic soft or lumpy options). Also because of the plantation shutters: while very beautiful, do not block out the light adequately. My advice if you're staying here is to bring your own pillow and maybe an eye mask. Our room had a lovely balcony with a 12 foot high bird of paradise and butterfly bush that offered security and great ambiance. The price is quite steep to stay here but we went on on off-day so more reasonable.

    Steak and eggs

    I went here to celebrate my birthday for brunch. I enjoyed 2 drinks and a steak and egg meal. The ambiance is nice and elegant. The yogurt they give with the banana nut bread was to die for. My birthday bread pudding was also so amazing.

    My girlfriends and I make sure to pamper ourselves with brunch and a spa day, a couple of times per year at this establishment. After enjoying brunch in the morning, we head over to the spa to enjoy all the amenities prior to our scheduled services (massages/facials, etc.). There's a coffee shop onsite as well that you can enjoy. I highly recommend this place for couples, friends, or as a solo session. I always leave so relaxed.

    We had ResortPass day ticket to the pool, checking in was very easy. Receptionist were super nice! She recommended that we book Dinner before we head to the pool which worked out amazing because the restaurant got super crowded after 6 pm. Pool was small very fun!! Really beautiful setup. Because of renovation they weren't taking orders at the pool but we just drove to cafe and brough our food at the pool. The restaurant was beyond amazing!!!! EXCELLENT Customer service! Dinner, drinks and wine was superb. Our server at the restaurant was the nicest lady I have ever met. My husband complained about chicken but she was so gracious and nice. Our toddler had an amazing time exploring the garden. Definitely coming back.

    Steak & Eggs (Brunch Menu)

    Came here for brunch with family to celebrate a special occasion, we had a reservation for about 20 people. While the atmosphere was beautiful, the food and service were really disappointing. A relative ordered the steak and eggs, which was listed at $24 on the menu, but we were shocked to see it charged as $36 on the bill. For that price, we expected a decent portion, but it came out with literally five tiny slices of steak.. honestly felt like a joke. Several of us got the eggs Benedict, and we weren't told it was vegetarian (no Canadian Bacon / meat). We had to ask for meat to be added to it. Unfortunately the yolk was cold and gelatinous by the time the meal arrived. Since it was a large group, plates came out in pairs, so some people got hot meals while others (like us) got lukewarm ones. Overall, really underwhelming and not worth the money. I absolutely will never return to this establishment.

    Brunch with Little Bit and Amanda
    Pam S.

    Great ambiance. Quiet and peaceful outdoors our nice and cozy seating inside. Service was fun. The Stone Fruit Parfait was OMG so good! and I happen to love Zucchini bread this place made a tasty one. Eggs Benedict was so good I didn't leave any for anyone else to try lol. Honorable mention to the French Martini it was so good I ordered another before I was done! HA! ((smile)) Respectfully Reviewed.

The craftsman style house, great lawn/tent and fountain are all an idealic setting to celebrate a wedding. After looking at several wineries in Lodi for our ceremony and reception, it became obvious to my fiance and I that Bare Ranch was the total package. Beautiful setting and very reasonably priced... Score! Because Micheal David Winery owns the property, Michael David wines are served at weddings - double score! The whole process in booking our Spring 2012 wedding has been so easy and enjoyable. Lori has been a joy to work with and has given me as a bride something priceless... peace of mind! Any brides considering a vineyard wedding should see this place first hand, photos do not do it justice!

Bare Ranch is easy to get to and is a very beautiful place. Well maintained and spacious. There is a gorgeous pool area for cocktail hour and white tent for reception is included. Don't need to decorate much cause this place is naturally smashing. Met with the event coordinator, Lori, and she is a doll. Love the fact that they only do ONE wedding a day (that's a big deal when there are SO many details involved.) We are really drawn to this place.. BUT this is the FIRST venue we checked out, still shopping around......

We reserved a table. There's a fan above us. 5) you can bring your own chair to sit. 6) there's 2 food trucks. 7) bathrooms and porter potties. 8) beautiful areas for photos.

Gone are the goats, chickens and horses I loved seeing so much. The intimate tasting room expanded like four times what it was and is updated with tables and seating for groups. They have also developed outside to accommodate patio seating, a perfect picnic setting. Overall, the property is more conducive to hosting private events. I believe they host live music concerts in the old barn. They are family and pet friendly. The folks inside were quick to put our wine club in order. Our membership was something like six pick ups a year. Yes, we could have opted for delivery but it was nice to drive out 2-3 times a year and come away with a case of wine. But we have slowed down on our drinking which is why we decided to end our club membership. Going to miss our drives out, especially in the Spring when it's not too warm.
