California's Santa Ynez Valley: Where to Stay, Eat, Drink, and Play

"I found the Santa Ynez Inn reminiscent of a historic inn but luxurious, with elegant furnishings, a spa, an inviting outdoor area with a fireplace and firepits, a gourmet breakfast and wine hour, a relaxing library room for a glass of wine or a whiskey tasting, and lush gardens and a remodeled Coach House that make it a popular wedding venue." - Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty is a writer who specializes in covering destinations, resorts, and cruises for Travel + Leisure and other publications.
