Cordevalle

What a great escape for people who live in the Bay Area to relax. The property is beautiful and serene. A very kid and dog friendly place.The bungalows are super cozy and feel private. I love the patio that overlooks the golf course and the bathrooms are a dream. Every single person on staff is helpful and highly attentive. Great space for hiking and outdoor activities. The food is amazing.

We stayed at Cordevalle for the first time and are thoroughly impressed! We visited the weekend before Thanksgiving, so there were fewer people staying than normal - it felt like we had the resort to ourselves! The bungalows are very spacious and comfortable with sweeping views of the resort from each private patio. Our dinner and the service at One Iron Bar was fantastic. The resort's location makes you feel like you're in a secluded rural getaway despite being a short drive from the city.

This is a very luxurious exclusive club and hotel with facilities and services of the highest level. Various levels of membership of the club are apparently available, definitely only for the very affluent. The golf course with the many lakes provides a beautiful setting for the residential and golf estate set in a beautiful valley near Morgan Hill in California. We had dinner at the One Iron Bar as guests of a member. The manager of the estate is a South African, who spent quite some time chatting about South Africa and the changes happening there. He was quite surprised that we enjoyed wines from Nappa Valley more than many South African Wines, but we don't spend in excess of R1000 on wines in South Africa every day. That said, the service was excellent and very professional. The atmosphere was warm and homely, and the food was excellent. The menu is not large, but there is a good variety for all tastes from steak to pasta. I highly recommend the prosciutto and baguette and ceviche starters. The deserts we had were as good as they could be. Prices are high as can be expected of a restaurant in an exclusive resort such as Cordevalle. If you come with a very weak currency as we did from South Africa, the cost is exorbitant, but an experience not to be missed if the opportunity ever arises. The evening was one of the highlights of our visit.

There are very few resorts that go the extra mile to make a stay special, and I have to say Cordevalle is the cream of the crop. I think it really tops the list of my visits to any luxury resort (4S, Ritz, Fairmont, Rosewood). The staff is extremely welcoming from the second you approach the front gate. Mind you they make their own spirits, wine, honey, and have a top notch restaurant to boot. I do not golf, but the course looked immaculate, and the spa/pool experience was great. The rooms were spacious and had a gorgeous view of the course and mountains. My toddler daughter did NOT want to leave as we packed up. I cannot wait to go back and have already told all my friends about the resort.
