Company Description

Opened in February 2023 in charming Los Olivos, The Inn at Mattei’s Tavern, Auberge Collection offers 67 luxury guest rooms, cottages, and suites that marry the simplicity of modern farmhouse design with the eclectic spirit of nearby ranch life. Set on historic grounds shaded by old-growth palm trees and surrounded by renowned vineyards, The Inn at Mattei’s Tavern originally served as a popular stagecoach stop in the late 1800s. Considered the social center of the Santa Ynez Valley through the 1930s, the property has remained a lively local landmark, revered and enjoyed for generations. Today, guests can savor farm-driven menus that celebrate the Central Coast’s land and sea, unwind at the new Lavender Barn, a luxury spa rooted in nature and renewal, and enjoy destination-inspired experiences that engage the senses.
