HEALDSBURG, Calif., April 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A beloved fixture just steps from the Healdsburg Plaza is entering a more intimate new chapter. Formerly 27 North, the 16-room boutique property has reemerged as Liora Estate, a European-inspired retreat designed for connection, where atmosphere and ritual take center stage—echoing its earlier identity as Hotel Les Mars.
Rooted in the meaning of its name—“my light”—Liora Estate, part of the Foley Entertainment Group collection, is conceived as a place of warmth and shared experience. Reflecting a shift in modern luxury travel, the Estate pairs its residential scale with a heightened sense of privacy and deliberately orchestrated moments built around connection with wine country and each other.
Central to the Estate’s evolution is the debut of Maréla, a Coastal European wine bistro inspired by Mediterranean seaside destinations. The restaurant blends land and ocean influences through a shareable, seasonal menu, embracing a relaxed, convivial pace suited to candlelit dinners, thoughtful wine pairings, and lingering conversation. A discreet selection of romance-driven indulgences will also be available upon request, adding an evocative layer to the dining experience. With its warm, inviting ambiance, Maréla is poised to become both a cornerstone of the guest experience and a destination for the Healdsburg community.
Liora Estate will introduce a series of daily rituals designed to create a natural rhythm throughout the stay. Highlights include a welcome aperitif upon arrival, a signature “Parting Light” candle, an elevated Sonoma coffee ritual, and a daily wine hour with curated pours and vinyl in the library lounge. At sundown, an Atmosphere Ritual transforms the estate as lighting softens, candles are lit, and music shifts to a slower, more romantic tone. A layered evening turndown also adds seasonal fireplace preparation, a record-listening prompt, and locally sourced truffles. Optional enhancements—from in-room massage and vineyard picnics, and romantic add-ons like florals, champagne, and wine pairings—allow guests to personalize their stay while reinforcing Liora Estate as a destination for connection and celebration.
