The secluded luxury retreat is a hidden gem, nestled amongst Cabernet Sauvignon vines high above the Napa Valley floor just outside of Yountville. Located at the top of a steep, gated drive, it is the ultimate wine country sanctuary for those seeking privacy with unparalleled 5-star service.
My wife and I Just spent four incredible days at the end. Daniel Mark Josh and Lisa were fantastic and accommodating hosts. The ee cummings was spacious and beautiful- my wife enjoyed the heated bathroom floors and I started a wood fire every day. The view of the Valley from the Inn Is spectacular. We stayed at some pretty amazing places around the world but Poetry is at the top.

We stayed in the Robert Frost room with stunning views from our balcony. On our 2nd balcony, we had an outdoor shower and hammock. Our morning delivery of coffee and pastries were fabulous, which we coined our Breakfast Appetizer. Breakfast made to order delivered to your room or choose to eat in the dining area. Daniel, Josh, and Gabe planned our entire itinerary and we could not have been happier with their selection of winery visits and dinner reservations Having stayed in other Napa resorts, this is now at the top of our list for the next visit

Poetry Inn was highly recommended to us by a friend and it did not disappoint. We’ve been coming to the Napa area for years and I’m not sure how we missed this lovely gem but we are so glad our friend suggested it. If you desire peace, tranquility, comfort, unparalleled views, luxury and personalized service, this is the place! The staff was so very thoughtful and accommodating, from dinner reservations to private wine tastings, we enjoyed everything they lined up for us. Breakfast each morning was divine, three courses of absolute deliciousness! We’ve been coming to the area for many years and Poetry Inn is at the top of our list and new favorite. Can’t wait to return. Thank you for making my husband’s birthday truly memorable and special!

What more can I say...beautiful room overlooking vineyards, extraordinary hospitality and delicious breakfast. They hit it out of the ballpark on all accounts. Josh and PJ went out of their way to make sure you had everything you wanted and beyond. This small, five room hotel was just perfect for our anniversary getaway. Highly recommend. Cliff Lede vineyard and complimentary wine tasting was thoroughly enjoyed. They arranged a private dinner for us on the balcony by Chef Amanda; a perfect way to spend our last evening. Great for couples.

I write this as I wait for our late checkout. The Innkeepers here are unparalleled in their kindness. We have had a tough last 24 hours because my husband lost our rental car keys. The Innkeepers have been incredible, from trying to help us find the keys, to picking up our dinner from R&D Kitchen last night for us because we couldn’t drive ourselves. They even let us checkout late without additional charges and have been calm and caring.
The property is unbelievable. The pool is refreshing and clean. The welcome wine and cheese board was a phenomenal start to our stay, and the Emily Dickenson (sp?) is cozy. I’ve now experienced a heated floor, the most thoughtful amenities (body loofa?!?!) and perfect isolation from Covid 19. We are both essential workers (I manage a Covid 19 ICU), he works to support VPN so people can work remote, and we have never felt so relaxed in a short period of time.
We will book to escape here again soon. Do not question thinking about making reservations, life is too short. Do it now. You won’t regret it.
To the team at The Poetry Inn, thank you for every single minute and thank you for restoring us physically and mentally during the toughest time of our lives as working professionals and parents. We deeply appreciate you guys.

The Poetry Inn is truly amazing, from the heated bathroom floor to the outdoor shower everything was perfect. The view from the terrace cannot be beat. We were there during mustard season and the vineyards below were covered in golden mustard flowers. The staff is great and you need to check out their personal wine cellar. It's expensive but well worth the price.

My husband and I, along with three other couples, stayed at the Poetry Inn in November 2012. I can't begin to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay! We just wish we could have stayed longer and certainly plan to go back whenever possible. I agree with the previous reviews of this property......it is simply stunning.... From the property itself to the wonderful service from the innkeepers! From Taking an outdoor shower in the morning watching the hot air balloons to the heated floors and the comfy bed.....every experience was somerhing new and wonderful. The views from the Inn are unlike any other. Thank you, Poetry Inn..... For an unforgettable experience! AND make sure to go down the hill to Cliff Lede Vineyards......loved it, too!
