Queen bed - $135/night Two double beds - $149/night Wine package - $170/night
The wine package includes the room, free bottle of wine when you check in and a $50 gift certificate for the Steak Out restaurant, which is next door to the hotel. It is by far the best deal. We will plan to have dinner at the Steak Out Restaurant & Saloon .
Also, on Saturday night they have free wine and cheese in the hotel lobby between 4:00 and 5:00 PM.
If you are planning to go, make your reservations early because we are limited on the rooms. We have reserved all 18 rooms in the hotel, however rooms must be booked before March 14th.
We plan to visit several wineries on Saturday and return to Phoenix on Sunday.
This is really a great place to visit. Nice, quiet and relaxing, plus the wine is good.
We plan to drive down Saturday morning, leaving from the Cracker Barrel Restaurant (Chandler Blvd. and I-10) no later than 8 AM. Reststops are planned at Pichacho Peak and at the Famous Triple T truck stop south of Tucson where we will meet up with the Tucson Z Club. Lunch will be in Soniota at the Cafe Soniota www.cafesonoita.com . Dinner on Saturday Night will be at the Steak Out Restaurant & Saloon next to our hotel. http://www.azsteakout.com/Welcome.html
If for some reason you decide to attend and the hotel rooms are sold out, check the Sonoita web page for surrounding hotels.
Here are a few web links for the hotel, wineries and the town of Sonoita. Some DZA members are going to Bisbee or Tombstone early Sunday morning before returning to Phoenix.
