The Madrona

Tucked into eight acres of lush grounds in Healdsburg, this Michelin two-key manor offers a mix of classic hotel rooms and private bungalows, each designed for the sort of slow, indulgent stay that Northern California wine country demands. Wander the leafy pathways, linger over an all-day feast rooted in the flavors and cultures of the region, or sink into a porch chair with a cocktail as the valley turns golden at dusk. The hallways double as a gallery — a rotating art collection curated by Dolby Chadwick — giving the whole property the feel of a well-traveled friend’s very beautiful house. Hidden garden corners, panoramic views, and a commitment to the local community via a partnership with Sonoma County’s Farm to Pantry round out a stay that feels as considered as it does effortless.
