VERANDA World's Most Beautiful HOTELS 2022

The Madrona

HEALDSBURG, CALIFORNIA

"Oscar Wilde said that everything in your home should be functional, beautiful, or both," says Jay Jeffers, who granted beauty tantamount status as per that Aesthetic Movement prophet in his exuberant revival of this 1881 mansion and estate purchased during the COVID-19 pandemic. In The Madrona's 24 rooms, suites, and bungalows, as well as its divinely atmospheric public rooms, Jeffers has also embraced the right-now with myriad design collaborations including bespoke rugs, murals, and lighting. Most potently he tapped longtime friend Lisa Chadwick of Dolby Chadwick Gallery in San Francisco to curate and commission artworks throughout (including Jeffers's favorite gallery wall in the front parlor, left). Oscar, your new perch awaits. Rates start at $750 for guest rooms, $1,050 for premium bungalows; themadronahotel.com
