Sprawling across 3500 acres of hiking, horseback riding, golf and, of course, vineyards, Chateau Elan fashions itself after a 16th-century French manse, complete with Renaissance-style architecture and amenities even the aristocracy would envy -- like the indoor heated pool located in the spa.
Guests can tour the award-winning on-site winery, indulge in spa treatments, schedule lessons with a golf or tennis pro, or simply enjoy a cocktail poolside. There's also six restaurants (Versailles and L'Auberge Lounge will be closed during renovations starting mid-June), ranging from Mediterranean seafood to Irish pub fare and American classics.
Guest rooms, decorated in a neutral palette offset by dark walnut furnishings, feel regal thanks to plush leather headboards, embroidered linens, granite countertops and oversize tubs in the bathrooms. Modern amenities like free Wi-Fi, in-room coffee makers and mini-fridges, plus flat-screen TVs also come standard.

We went for two nights on July 4th with the grandkids; highlights were the pool and the fireworks. The breakfast buffet was excellent, and fairly priced. The live piano music, the winery and the overall atmosphere were enough to interest us in a return visit just for the grandparents!

The room was nice and the bathtub was excellent. However, the hotel was undergoing renovations and the entrance wasn't quite covered as it was raining. The carts to take the luggage to the room were soaked. We were not aware of this and it soaked our luggage. When I brought it to their attention they just expressed sympathy in a passing kind of way. We have stayed at this hotel before and the staff was friendlier and kinder. They must be stressed out from the renovations.

The hotel is great - all self contained. However, the staff has no idea what they are doing. Had at least 3 or 4 difficult encounters with staff not being able to provide information or providing inaccurate information. Very frustrating! It was as if they all started the day before we arrived. They need to take lessons from Disney or Marriott properties. Good staff makes a big difference! Main reason I would not return.

Great things about the Estate: the comfortable bed, the wine tasting, the golf course, the Golf Grille service and food, and the convenient location of the Estate.
Not so great things about the stay: first, upon checking in, we encountered a not so pleasant front desk lady; second, I called the operator phone 3 times Monday morning for assistance but nobody answered the calls; 3rd, the food at Versailles, the top rerated onsite restaurant there, was less than mediocre considering the price point.

The staff were wonderful, especially at the winery. It was very chaotic, but the bartenders cheerfully answered everyone's questions. They kept pouring wine with a smile. It might be helpful if they created signage that told you how the process works when you first enter the winery.

This is a fake winery/resort. Not a true winery and the staff know nothing about wine. The tour is a joke to say the least and it is clear that there's no real wine being made there. The staff don't seem knowledgable at all and the wine tasting is basically them pouring the wine in your glass- no info at all about the actual wines. This is also a faux resort as there is absolutely nothing to do there other than getting overpriced food/massage and play golf. No other activities. Rooms were dirty and warm water was out one eve- the AC kept breaking too and had to keep turning it off and on.

It is summer which is high season and chateau advertises its 6restaurants
We had no choice but to eat at restaurant in the lobby called Versailles which served expensive dining entees in the evening and a breakfast in the morning atmosphere is awful!!!yettgey have nerve to serve 30-35 dollar entrees!!every other restaurant is closed on Sunday and Monday which is when we visited
Also resort fee of $30 is ridiculous!!!!they told us it was for weekend entertainment
We were there on a Sunday e evening with no dining options and no entertainment
I feel we were “nickel and dined” to death
Hotel was nice but to be charged for amenities that they don’t have is ridiculous
We should ha e had more restaurant choices and maybe some afternoon live entertInment at the pool
All I saw was the groundskeeper who was tending to shrubbery at the pool area and a blasting speaker that was breaking up .
Could have been so lively
Place is a bit “off”
My travelzoo special of 169 ended up being $285which included nothing but room and fees(no meals) even with the $50 credit!!!!!!

The restaurants were of poor quality. Paddy's brought us both the wrong dish. The pasta at Versailles was crazy salty. The winery did not have the item on the menu that we ordered on two different days. The room had a toilet seat that banged our knuckles repeatedly and a shower door blocked by the bathroom door. Workout area is very minimal.

The experience was good and we are glad we went but will not go back again. They call themselves a resort and charge 35.00 a day for a resort fee. The only ammentity they have is a pool. Wine Tasting, Golf and The Spa is full price for overnight guests. I am confused on what the resort fee was actually supposed to cover. The food, wine, golf and spa is overpriced for the value. If you like their wine, you can purchase it at Publix across the street for a few dollars less per bottle.

The cost of meals was very high. In addition, all of the dining options had different availability. None were open all day. The pool bar did open at noon for food and drink. The other option was the lunch buffet at 2:00 or so with a cost of $22-23. The staff was excellent and the room was very nice. The bed linens exceptional. They need to work on the dining options and pricing for those options.

- Signage needs to be better on the walking trails, group members got lost twice on both the longer serenity and the shorter nature trail.
-It's confusing how some restaurants include gratuity and a service charge and some don't. We found not all were up front if gratuity was already included.
-$100 for weekend use of the spa amenities seemed rather steep. We also weren't allowed to participate in the May deal because we just happened to be there the Friday of mother's day weekend.
-Spa online menu wasn't up to date. We came for certain items, like the lemon blueberry pancakes and were heartbroken that they were not available when we showed up.
-I guess we didn't understand what the resort fee covered if you have to pay for everything separately- bike, spa, tennis...all cost additional funds.
-No coffee or water available in the lobby in the morning or throughout the day.

The food was overpriced for the lack of quality. Rooms weren’t comfortable - no area to sit and relax, just a desk and chair. No shelf in shower so we had to put our toiletries on the floor then bend over to reach them, not safe at all.
The spa was a great disappointment, no customer service whatsoever. Massage therapist was excellent, though. Not a relaxing, calming experience at all.
