Day 1: Arrive in Healdsburg & Calistoga

A long line of vineyards at sunset.

Welcome to a weekend filled with laughter, adventure and relaxation in the heart of California’s wine country!

Imagine starting your day in the charming town of Healdsburg, a place that feels like a postcard come to life. The aroma of freshly baked pastries and rich coffee envelops you as you settle in at Costeaux Bakery, the perfect spot to kick off your ladies’ getaway. After a delightful breakfast, take a leisurely stroll around Healdsburg Plaza, where each boutique and shop is a treasure trove, inviting you to explore and absorb the relaxed rhythm of the weekend with your best friends.

Next, it’s time to visit Garciana Winery, where wine tasting transforms into a captivating experience. You'll be greeted with warm hospitality from the owner, whose passion for winemaking shines through in every detail. As you sip on exquisite wines, savor the care and history behind each bottle while the beauty of the vineyards unfolds before you, creating a scene perfect for sharing and capturing on camera.

By early afternoon, you’ll check into Solage Hotel, where luxury and comfort seamlessly blend with serenity. After enjoying a light, farm-fresh lunch at Solbar, the afternoon flows into an indulgent spa session featuring mineral baths and rejuvenating massages that leave you feeling completely refreshed and revitalized. This is the perfect opportunity to bond over shared pampering and relaxation!

Day 2: Outdoor adventure & leisure

On your second day, embrace adventure with your ladies! Start by hopping on the bikes offered by Solage Hotel and explore the scenic vineyards surrounding the property. Pedal along the Napa Valley Vine Trail, soaking in the fresh air and stunning views, and feel the excitement of exploring together. Don’t forget to swing by Big John's Market to grab tasty snacks and fresh produce for a cozy picnic among the vines, where you can laugh, chat and enjoy the beauty of nature.

In the afternoon, wander into downtown Calistoga to discover its charming shops and art galleries. Treat yourselves to a scoop of ice cream as you stroll, sharing giggles and stories, and if you're up for it, catch a glimpse of the impressive Old Faithful Geyser as it erupts, adding a touch of nature's magic to your day. As evening approaches, return to Solage for a delightful dinner at Solbar, where the culinary experience will leave you craving more. Wind down by relaxing by the hotel pool or enjoying a nightcap at the bar, celebrating your special bond.

Afterward, enjoy a leisurely breakfast, savoring delicious dishes while reminiscing about the incredible memories you’ve created together. Share your favorite moments from the weekend and toast to new friendships and adventures.

As you check out of the hotel and say goodbye to Calistoga, carry with you the warmth of your experiences and the bonds you've strengthened. With hearts full of joy and a renewed spirit, you’ll leave not just with great memories, but with a desire to return to this beautiful retreat, knowing that this getaway was more than just a trip—it was a celebration of friendship and self-care.
