Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Once home to famed Arabian horses, this Spanish-inspired 160-acre estate is now an exclusive retreat bursting with the vibrance and charm of California Romantica. Gracious courtyards, terraces, and shady lawns flow easily into the covered Pavilion, where you'll dine and dance beneath Mission-style brass chandeliers suspended from the rich wood ceiling.
- Colorful, intricately painted tiled steps rise from the Terrace to meet a lush lawn dotted with swaying palms and olive trees, with views that encompass a sparkling lake and the golden hills beyond. Exchange vows here, or opt for the lovely Plaza, where a gracious fountain is bounded on three sides by the breezy arched cloisters of the main building.
- Seven adjoining rooms comprise La Posada, the elegant on-site bed & breakfast which also hosts La Novia, the plush dressing suite. Each guest room is impeccably designed, with handcrafted Mexican furnishings, Saltillo tile floors, and oil-rubbed bronze fixtures; additional lodging is available in The Hacienda, a lovely 3-bedroom house, which means up to 24 of your loved ones can enjoy a destination weekend.
