Top 15 Napa Valley Bed and Breakfast Options

One of the best ways to enjoy Napa Valley is by staying in one of its lovely B&Bs. I've mentioned a few above, but there are many more great options.

Click here to read all about my 15 favorite Napa Valley B&Bs.

Napa Vacation Rentals

Another popular option is to rent an apartment or house for your stay. This will give you the freedom of a place of your own. It's the perfect option for those staying with a larger group or staying for more than just a few days.

Here are a few places I recommend looking for your rentals.

TripAdvisor: TripAdvisor has a large number of vacation rentals in Napa. Options on their list range from small studio apartments to 4- and 5-bedroom houses with pools. There are also a large number of reviews from those that stayed previously, so you get a great sense of what to expect during your stay. Click here to review their vacation rentals.

VRBO: I also use VRBO quite a bit for these types of rentals. You get a great look at the places available, and their website makes it easy to find something that fits your needs. Click here to check out VRBO selections.

A Word of Warning About Short Term Vacation Rentals

Many places throughout the US, including Napa, are starting to crack down on short-term vacation rentals. What began as a wonderful idea has exploded and cut into the business of local hotels and resorts. Their issue with short-term rentals is that they do not have to follow the same rules, pay taxes, and follow other hotel regulations.

This allows short-term rental properties to rent their places for less.

It is required in Napa Valley to have a permit to rent your apartment or house to those renting for the short term. You may get stuck in the middle as they begin to crack down on those renting without permits.

Now, it's an extreme case that you would have issues, but it's something I like to mention to anyone using these services I recommend or any others. Since they do not have to provide their permit to sign up for these services, you cannot guarantee that they are legal rentals.

Here is a recent article to give you a better idea of what's happening on this topic:

Napa Valley Register: City Residents Divided on Vacation Rentals

I recommend asking a few questions before you rent to know what risks you are willing to take. Yes, these can be a great, cost-effective way to visit Napa, but there could be some downsides also.
