Valley Becomes Eco-Travel Destination with February Opening of the Bardessono January
14, 2009, Napa Valley, CA. - Globetrotting eco-adventurers looking for an authentic
travel experience will want to move Bardessono to the top of their 2009 travel
wish lists. Driven by the desire to wrap everything in an earth-friendly blanket
of luxury, every element of this LEED-Platinum aspiring Napa Valley hotel, spa
and restaurant is designed for the traveler craving couture comfort. What
will the discerning traveler find at the Bardessono? A touch of glamour awash
in green; a return to old-fashioned, highly personalized hospitality; and an experiential
hotel where quality and environmental ethics always trump the latest fads. More
specifically, they’ll discover… Custom-designed
on and off-site adventures created by Guest Services Director Cristina Salas-
Porras
A luxurious “green” spa
heated and cooled by an underground geothermal system, which offers an East-meets-West-inspired
menu
Organic spa “couture” from
In Fiore, a blossoming skincare company whose homeopathic treatments and products
have gathered a loyal following from San Francisco to Tokyo
Smart
guestrooms disguised as sumptuously appointed suites and offering in-room spa
services, 24-hour in-room dining, complimentary filtered still and sparkling water
and exquisite Coyuchi organic linens and terrycloth
An
esoteric list of locally distilled and crafted spirits, loose leaf herbals from
Oakland-based Modern Tea, Blue Bottle micro-roasted coffees and espressos, all
fashioned to tempt even the most discriminating bar culture enthusiasts
Complimentary
services from the on-site bicycle shop and use of a bike for the duration of their
stay
“Custom Cuisine” crafted by Executive Chef Sean O’Toole
from fresh, local ingredients
Six acres stunningly
landscaped with drought-tolerant foliage, organic herb gardens and vineyards tended
by viticulturist Doug Hill
A modern hotel
sensitively crafted from: recycled stone and salvaged orchard Walnut, Cypress,
Redwood and California Bay woods
In collaboration
with Cello & Maudru Construction and a host of extraordinary craftsmen, ecopioneer
Phil Sherburne created this holistic haven in the heart of the walking village,
Yountville. In fact, it’s just a few footsteps – or a quick bike ride
– from the restaurants and wineries that have turned this Napa Valley town
into an epicurean hub, including Michelin-ranked establishments like The French
Laundry, Bouchon and Bistro Jeanty.
Set
to open its doors next month (just in time for Premiere Napa Valley), Bardessono
is a classic in the making. It’s a sustainable property designed to age and
change with the times. |

You can clean your home, fruits, vegetables and meats with the same 'Aqueous Ozone' that spas and other companies use. Tersano's ‘Aqueous Ozone’ Cleaning Systemt is the world's most effective chemical-free cleaner. ‘Aqueous Ozone’ quickly oxidizes (kills) viruses and bacteria (including E.coli, Salmonella, MRSA, C-Difficil), mold, mildew and other contaminants on any item or surface - from toilets to bedspreads - before changing safely back into water and oxygen. ‘Aqueous Ozone’ is 3000 times faster and 50% more powerful than bleach and chlorine-based cleaners. It is 100% chemical free - no toxins, carcinogens or chemical residue - and safe for babies, pets and people with sensitive skin or those with strong reactions to normal cleaners. ‘Aqueous Ozone’ has long been used in water treatment, food sterilization and medical therapies for its remarkable anti-viral, and anti-fungal properties. It sounds too good to be true, but the data show how effective the system works.
I'm a believer.
