Napa Valley is pulling out all the stops to welcome health-conscious travelers. For those that aren’t quite ready to dive back into wining and dining in public spaces, hotels are offering private in-suite experiences that bring Napa Valley to the comfort of your (meticulously clean and sanitized) private suite. Looking for totally private dining experiences outside your hotel? We’ve got that too! Below, find our top picks:
