The founder of The Ranch Almaden, formerly The Hero Ranch, created it to offer Silicon Valley a taste of European luxury travel and food. Our guests frequently comment that there is nothing quite like it in Silicon Valley. The 5 acres are gated and secure. It includes a Tuscan house measuring 10,000+ sq. ft., four acres of private label Cabernet, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc vineyards. There is also a hot tub, outdoor kitchen, Bocce ball courts and firepits. The property has 5 large bedrooms and a movie theatre that seats 20 or more. Formal and informal living and dining areas can be found throughout the main property. We can arrange additional space for those who need it, but this is subject to availability.
