The Best Staycation Spots Around Atlanta


This is NOT a sponsored post, I just really loved our experience at Chateau Elan. 

My husband and I got a chance to visit Chateau Elan over the summer for our anniversary. And we LOVED it! It’s perfect for a night or two away if you have small kids and it’s very close. 

When you arrive it feels like you’ve left Georgia, and entered Napa Valley. COMPLETELY beautiful property and vineyard. We didn’t get a chance to tour the vineyard when we were there, but best believe we tried the wine! Lots of it! Their specialty is a sparkling wine, the Brut Reserve. And I would actually just like to take this moment to personally thank Chateau Elan for introducing me to good champagne because I’m never looking back! 

Pretty much my favorite thing about Chateau Elan is the packaged deals they offer online. It makes the stay affordable. Our particular package included our room, dinner, and a gift card to use on property. We had dinner at their beautiful Versailles restaurant in the hotel atrium. It was delicious! We also enjoyed a few rounds of pool and drinks at the L’Auberge Lounge…such a fun night! The pool is gorgeous and very relaxing. Definitely, suggest it in the summer. The spa has endless options, and is always a must for a weekend without the babies. 

And thanks to our awesome package deal we were able to score a bottle of champagne for us and our parents (better known as babysitters), using our gift card. Wins all around! I feel like I should be offering a free bottle of wine or something, but I’ll just leave you with the link to their overnight packages because how could you not book a night with them now?
