Liked: Bath robs would be nice

Disappointing

Liked: Location is OK.
Disliked: My ring was taken for luck of better word. I contacted supervisor several times with no returned call Sad not to trust since left it next to the bed before checking out we ask them to help us look . We noticed it was taken right away. It was diamond ring. Shame on me not to luck it.

Beautiful place, nice people, but...

Liked: We had a beautiful view of the vineyard and woke up both mornings with hot air balloons drifting overhead. The room was large, comfortable and clean. The staff was super-friendly - even the Dodger fan at reception. If you want to be in the heart of the Temecula wine country, this fits the bill.
Disliked: So...there were definitely some disappointments. First, it turns out that the complimentary wine tasting that comes with the room - as mentioned on the Carter Estate Winery and Resort web site - is NOT included with your bungalow if you book through Booking.com as we did. (In fairness, the tasting is not mentioned on the Booking.com web site, but still...bad mojo.) In the end, we skipped their tasting room, and any associated wine purchases. Second, Websters defines a "bungalow" as "a one-storied house with a low-pitched roof." That was pretty much my vision of where we would land at Carter's. Nope. Our building consisted of four rooms and two stories. There was a shared, tiled, entry area that amplified and reverberated all of the sounds of our neighbors' comings and goings. Kind of broke down the ambiance. Finally, the "very good" breakfast included in our room price was really just a continental breakfast consisting of fruit, juice, yogurt and small pastries. Again, the winery's web site mentions just a continental breakfast, Booking.com calls it a "very good breakfast." Oh, and watch out for the $19 per day resort fee. That get's tacked onto the Booking.com reservation at checkout. Don't remember seeing a mention of it until right at the end.

It was wonderful! Wish we...

Liked: Private patio with great view of vineyards and mountains. Great bathroom with huge shower and soaking tub. Also, it was great to have someone bring us breakfast in the morning - included in the price
