Curated by
Anna Tretter
I was counting down the days until my first Napa trip with my girlfriends... until I found out I was pregnant. But, it turns out there's a lot more to Napa than just touring vineyards and sipping wine in tasting rooms. Napa Valley's landscape is absolutely stunning and lends itself to a quiet, unhurried visit. Many of the area's hotel properties have acclaimed spas and wellness activities. The emphasis on local, organic farming means there's an abundance of outstanding dining experiences. So if you find yourself in Napa for a girls weekend or bachelorette party and you're not drinking alcohol, all hope for an enjoyable weekend is not lost. And for a hot take: Napa might be my #1 recommendation for an unexpected babymoon destination!
