By: Cecily Gamba
Planning your getaway to Sonoma? Lucky you! There really isn’t a bad time to visit Sonoma, however, late spring is an especially wonderful time. The weather is just right, not too hot and not too cold. Flowers are in bloom, and bud break has enveloped the rows of never-ending vines in bright green leaves. The Sonoma Plaza is abuzz with activity, though enjoying the calm of the pre-summer rush.
With so much to do and see in the area, it is important to pick the right place to stay. Whether you’re from out of town, or a local looking to book a staycation, we have come up with a “where to stay” guide for your next trip!
