CARMEL VALLEY, Calif.
Ensemble Hotel Partners is excited to announce the acquisition of Bernardus Lodge, Carmel Valley's award-winning romantic getaway. The 57-room resort and spa is situated on 25-acres of pristine land in one of California's up and coming wine country destinations.
Ensemble Hotel Partners acquired the four-star resort from winery developer, Bernardus Pon who opened the namesake property in 1999. The sale included the 25-acre Lodge and its facilities, including the four-star Marinus restaurant operated by celebrated Chef Cal Stamenov, Wicket's Bistro and The Spa at Bernardus Lodge. Additional features include the Rose Garden outdoor event venue and nearly 4,000 square feet of indoor meeting and function space. Ensemble Hotel Partners hired Noble House Hotels & Resorts to assume the management of the Lodge.
Hailed for its first-class accommodations and amenities, the Lodge will retain its name as the company moves forward with renovations and upgrades to the property. The hotel will undergo a $4M renovation aimed at refreshing the guest rooms and enhancing the restaurant, pool, meeting and spa experiences.
Carmel Valley is nestled into the Santa Lucia Mountain Range and is among the fastest-growing wine regions in California. Noted for its award-winning vineyard, wineries, and championship golf courses, the bucolic locale is only minutes from the town of Carmel by the Sea.
