Yountville, Napa Valley, CA - July 27, 2010 - Hot off the press…Travel+Leisure Magazine has ranked Villagio Inn & Spa number 42 of the “Top 50 Resorts” in the Continental U.S. and Canada in the publication's 2010 World's Best Awards readers' survey.

The list, which appeared in the August, 2010 issue of the magazine, is a part of Travel+Leisure Magazine's annual “World's Best” Awards. For 15 years, T+L readers have cast their votes for the top hotels, destinations, airlines, cruises, outfitters and transportation companies worldwide.
Travel+Leisure readers rated hotels and resorts on the following characteristics: rooms/facilities, location, service, restaurants/food, and value.

“Achieving this outstanding recognition is especially gratifying because readers vote on the places they've stayed and share their expert opinion on their favorite hotel,” says Villagio Inn & Spa Managing Director, David Shipman.

Nestled on a quaint main street in Yountville, California in the heart of the Napa Valley in Northern California's premier wine-producing region, the award-winning 112-room Villagio Inn & Spa is a stylish retreat with the visionary design of a village in Tuscany.

Lush Mediterranean-style gardens, fountains, and a flowing central watercourse set the tone of relaxed elegance, with cobbled pathways that meander through the two-story cluster-style village-like surrounds of the luxurious Villagio Inn & Spa. Spacious and airy, all guestrooms and suites feature private patios or balconies, fireplaces, oversize sunken bathtubs, in-room wine cellars, cozy robes, in-room tea, coffee and Espresso machines, and a bottle of premium chardonnay upon arrival.

A lavish champagne breakfast buffet and afternoon tea service are included with every guest stay.

Focal point of the hotel is Spa Villagio, one of Northern California's premier luxury spa retreats, available to both hotel guests and day spa goers. Architecturally engaging, Spa Villagio's soothing fountains and serene reflecting pools lead along a limestone walkway to a grand entrance. Reminiscent of Early California design highlighting classic Mediterranean accents, including stone arched entryways and Spanish-style terra cotta clay tile roofs, Spa Villagio boasts a 13,000-square-foot-sanctuary with 16 treatment rooms and five unique sumptuously-designed private spa suites.
