North of San Francisco, you’ll find a place that feels like another world with its lush vineyards, rolling hills and valleys filled with fragrant florals. This is Napa Valley and it happens to be home to hundreds of hillside vineyards whose grapes turn out some of the best wines in the world.

What a fitting place for a special woman to celebrate Mother's Day. Taking in the scenery and touring some of the loveliest wineries in the area would be so appreciated by your mom or your wife. Better still, why not do it really right and whisk her away on a California holiday that includes Mother's Day?

A special woman deserves an incredible place to stay while on vacation and Villa Sky House certainly is that and one of the most awe-inspiring of Napa Sonoma Luxury Villas. With its breathtaking views over Tamales, Bodega Bay and Point Reyes, this contemporary estate has the most amazing coastline view and just minutes from the beach and notable hiking trails. In addition to full services and 24/7 guest support, amenities include a sauna, cinema room, gym, outdoor hot tub and a terrific outdoor dining space.

We have highlighted five of the best wine tours Napa has to offer, so you can toast a special woman on her special day!
