Built from the ground up and opened in February 2020, Sonoma Bungalows occupies a quiet, tree-lined stretch of West Napa Street just moments from Sonoma Plaza. The property is a deliberate hybrid (part boutique hotel, part private residence) with eight individually designed bungalows and suites, each appointed with a gourmet kitchen, a spacious living area, and interiors that favor natural light and understated finish over flash.

Rooms
Eight luxury bungalows and suites, each with a gourmet kitchen, open living space, private patio, and high-end finishes including heated bathroom floors.

Distinctions
Purpose-built in 2020 as a hotel/vacation-rental hybrid; consistently top-rated by guests for service and location, steps from Sonoma Plaza.

Specialty Offerings
Private check-in with a walked welcome and bottle of wine, concierge arrangements for private tastings and excursions, outdoor fireplace and barbecue facilities, free on-site private parking.

The intimate scale is the point. Guests are walked to their bungalow on arrival, greeted with a bottle of wine, and offered the kind of individual attention (dining recommendations, private tasting arrangements, local excursions) that only an eight-room property can sustain. Details like heated bathroom floors, private patios, and landscaped garden courtyards round out a stay that puts the Plaza's tasting rooms, restaurants, and shops within an easy walk, with the Montini Preserve trailhead nearby for morning hikes.

Owner

Michael Marino is the owner of Sonoma Bungalows, which he spent three years building on West Napa Street before it opened in early 2020. A longtime wine country hospitality figure, he founded California Wine Tours in 1986, one of the area's early chauffeured touring companies. On his site, restored front cottages that once housed the Sonoma Sun newspaper and radio station KSVY lead back to the newer bungalows.
