South Coast Winery Resort & Spa

Rolling vineyards, private villas, vibrant dining, lush spa, exclusive tastings… The glass is definitely more than half-full at South Coast Winery Resort & Spa.

This Temecula Valley, California, destination combines working winery with luxurious sanctuary, adding a new dimension to an increasingly popular wine country. The intimate resort offers Southern California residents a very driveable getaway. It’s also easily accessible from the San Diego, Los Angeles and Ontario airports and central to the region’s many attractions.

And the guest experience here? Peaceful walks through the vines, winery tours and tastings, gourmet food paired with award-winning wines, vineyard views from a villa terrace…with the highest standards of service. A slightly romanticized version of the vintner lifestyle. Just the way founder/proprietor Jim Carter originally pictured it.
