California's Meritage Resort and Spa unveils US$40m expansion

The Meritage Resort and Spa - one of the largest resorts in California's Napa Valley, US - has unveiled new facilities as part of a major US$40m (EUR31.4m, £25.4m) expansion.

Crush Ultra Lounge with six bowling lanes; a piazza with a spa/hot tub; an Italian-style café; and extensive meeting space have been created as part of the privately-financed scheme.

A further 165 guestrooms and suites were also added during the 19-month renovation, with the California resort now boasting more than 300 Tuscan-inspired guestrooms and suites.

PK Architects of Tempe, Arizona, were behind the design of the 131,000sq ft (12,170sq m) extension, which has been developed adjacent to the existing facilities at the resort.

Meritage Resort and Spa already includes Spa Terra - a luxury subterranean facility housed in the 22,000sq ft (2,044sq m) Estate Wine Cave and boasting 12 treatment rooms.

A signature couples' room is among the treatment rooms. The spa also includes a relaxation lounge and private lounges for men and women, which boast steam grottos and water walls.

According to a spokesperson, "the spa was designed to be a feast for the mind and body, and was built by artisan tile, wood, and iron craftsmen."
