"This Mediterranean-style resort is "a little slice of heaven," with Italian gardens, cobblestone courtyards, fountains, and a faux Roman ruin. Rooms are scattered in two-story Tuscan-esque buildings surrounded by flowers and olive trees, and each has a wood-burning fireplace and an oversize sunken bathtub. "Maximize the enjoyment by visiting the wonderful shops next door as well as eating at the many world-class restaurants within walking distance," such as Thomas Keller’s French Laundry and Bouchon. The 13,000-square-foot Spa Villagio offers a Monticelli Mud treatment, with mud from Parma that’s combined with cypress, lemon, and fennel essential oils."
