Temecula Wine Hotels

On a scenic hill in Temecula the amazing Churon Inn Winery almost makes you think you have found a slice of Tuscany in Southern California. The grand rotunda welcomes you with 40‑ft ceilings, leading down to a tasting bar where award-winning Cabernet, Syrah, and Tempranillo are poured right from their estate’s 11 acre vineyard. The 24 suites feature spectacular views, spa tubs, fireplaces, and French-inspired decor... With gourmet breakfasts, evening wine receptions, and hot-air balloons drifting past at sunset, the experience feels indulgent and unmistakably local. Highly recommended! Read more

Temecula may not be as famous as Napa or Sonoma, but with more than 40 wineries and a sunny Mediterranean climate, it’s one of Southern California’s fastest growing wine regions. And it has some of the best winery hotels around too. South Coast Winery Resort & Spa is right at the top of that list. Set on 63 acres of rolling vineyards, this resort combines award-winning winemaking with full-on luxury... Guests can stay in private villas or elegant suites, each with vineyard views, and enjoy tastings of South Coast’s acclaimed wines just steps from their door. The on-site Grapeseed Spa is a highlight too, offering treatments that make use of the natural power of the grape, while the heated outdoor pool and cabanas invite long, lazy afternoons. Evenings mean farm-to-table dining paired with estate wines, and mornings bring vineyard walks bathed in California sunshine. What more could you ask for? Read more

What makes wines from Southern California stand out is their bold expression and coastal influence-ripe fruit balanced by cooling breezes and varied elevations. At Carter Estate Winery and Resort in Temecula Valley, that character is matched by a stay that feels both indulgent and wonderfully peaceful. Set on a 109-acre working vineyard, this adults-only resort offers private bungalows that open directly onto rows of vines, each with its own patio and outdoor seating area... The estate’s sparkling wines and elegant Cabernet Sauvignons are highlights, best enjoyed by the pool or as part of a private guided tasting. Service is warm and unobtrusive, and the overall atmosphere is calm and grown-up - perfect for a weekend of wine, rest, and sunset views. Read more
