Hacienda Felise Estate is the perfect setting for 3-6 ADULT friends or family members or for up to 3 couples seeking a getaway, wine country adventure, workshop or retreat, whether for a few days or a week. This option includes three of our guest dwellings at the hacienda: Casa de los Sueños Casita, Corazón Sagrado Suite, and Catrina Suite. Each unique space is located around a large Spanish-style courtyard with comfortable seating, outdoor firepit and blankets, making it the perfect area for your group to gather and spend time together. Guests can explore the succulent & cactus gardens, have a meditation session in the bamboo oxygen room, find a spot to practice yoga, play bocce ball or other lawn games. On the estate, our two favorite places for viewing a sunset are the guest courtyard or in the gazebo at the top of the gardens. The hacienda setting is serene and peaceful, so let that be your guide for your group. Each dwelling’s features is described below.
