The Carneros Resort and Spa<\/a> has many features you’d expect from a luxury resort in the heart of California<\/a>‘s Napa Valley: sophisticated farmhouse style, a tranquil spa and extraordinary views of the neighboring vineyards.<\/p>\n

However, there is one other thing that helps to maintain the resort’s harmony with nature: small, black-and-yellow insects that buzz as they flit from flower to flower \u2014 bees.<\/p>\n

The 28-acre Carneros Resort and Spa has an on-site apiary with three thriving bee colonies cared for by Rob Keller, beekeeper and founder of the Napa Valley Bee Company<\/a>. TPG recently spoke with Keller to learn more about the resort and what goes into being a hotel beekeeper.<\/p>\n
