Bann at Oak Knoll
A Slice of Thailand in Wine Country
Bann at Oak Knoll is a boutique bed-and-breakfast that masterfully blends Thai elegance with Napa Valley vineyard views. Nestled in the heart of the Oak Knoll District, this serene retreat is just a ten-minute drive from downtown Napa yet offers a tranquil escape that feels worlds away.
Bann has five beautifully curated rooms, each a serene sanctuary inspired by a distinct region of Thailand: Chaiburi, Waing Ping, Singha Nakorn, Chaiburi, and Savarn. Thoughtfully designed details, such as intricate hand-carved headboards, exquisite hand-painted sinks, and inviting soaking tubs, create an atmosphere of tranquility and indulgence, perfect for unwinding in style.
Mornings: A Thai Culinary Escape
Wake up to the aroma of something special. At Bann, breakfast is more than a meal—it’s an experience. Served on crisp white linens and fine china, this three-course affair marries the bold, vibrant flavors of Thai cuisine with the freshest bounty of California’s produce. Behind each dish is the artistry of Chef Lalita Souksamlane, the visionary behind San Francisco’s celebrated Osha Thai and Lao Table. Her passion and creativity shine through every meticulously crafted bite, turning breakfast into a moment of indulgence and delight.
Breakfast at Bann begins with a regal touch: seasonal fruits, hand-picked from nearby orchards, elegantly arranged in a style fit for royalty. Next, indulge in freshly baked, flaky croissants and an assortment of artisanal breads paired with your choice of rich, aromatic coffee or a fragrant tea from Bann’s carefully curated selection. The grand finale is a delightful fusion of East and West—“Thai Tea” French toast adorned with fresh berries—or perhaps you’ll opt for a classic, like the chicken spicy basil served over rice with a perfectly fried egg.
Relaxation, Thai Style
Beyond the breakfast table, Bann offers a sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation. A shimmering saltwater pool beckons under the golden Napa sun, while the hot tub and sauna promise to melt away stress and restore balance to both body and mind. Imagine yourself reclining in a private cabana with a glass of Napa wine in hand, as the sun sets over the rolling vineyards. With renowned wineries just moments away, days can be spent exploring the region’s legendary vintages. When evening falls, the journey continues with a culinary escape to Osha Thai in downtown Napa, where Bann’s signature Thai-inspired elegance takes center stage once again.
