Fodor's Expert Review B Spa Therapy Center

Many of this spa's patrons are Bardessono hotel guests who take their treatments in their rooms' large, customized bathrooms—all of them equipped with concealed massage tables—but the main facility is open to nonguests as well. An in-room treatment favored by couples starts with massages in front of the fireplace and ends with a bath and sparkling wine. The two-hour Yountville Signature Experience, which can be enjoyed in-room or at the spa, begins with a shea-butter-enriched sugar scrub, followed by a Chardonnay grape-seed-oil massage and a hydrating hair-and-scalp treatment. The spa engages massage therapists skilled in Swedish, Thai, and other techniques. In addition to massages, the services include facials and other skin-care treatments.
