Holiday ideas in Transylvania: Villa Vinea awaits you with wine tasting and accommodation packages
Located in Mica village, in a very picturesque area of Transylvania, 25 km from the city of Târgu Mureș, Villa Vinea winery is one of Romania's representative wineries.
In addition to the fact that it produces exceptional wines that preserve the footprint of the area, Villa Vinea winery has also taken care of the tourist side of the winery in recent years. On the one hand, you can visit the winery and have a wine tasting, and on the other hand, the winery wanted to offer visitors a complete experience in Transylvania, which is why it has also developed some wine tasting packages accompanied by accommodation and transfer from accommodation to the winery and return.
We have spoken on several occasions about wine tourism, as well as the opportunity and necessity of its development in Romania and Villa Vinea represents an example of good practices.
Even though this winery does not own an accommodation unit, it has found a solution that can be available to other wineries too: it has found some accommodation units in the region with which it has partnered and together they have created 3 types of tourist packages that include 1 night accommodation with breakfast, 1 tasting at the Villa Vinea winery and transfer from the accommodation to the winery and back! Depending on the accommodation unit chosen, guests may also have the possibility of access to the swimming pool or the spa center at the respective accommodation unit.
Currently, Villa Vinea has developed 3 holiday packages together with accommodation units located 10-25 km away from the winery, such as Hotel Privo (Târgu Mureș), Castel Haller, Boutique Hotel Le Baron (Butoiul Sasului), Valea Verde Retreat.

Within each of the 3 types of packages, you can choose between the available accommodation units, as well as between the wines that will be included in the tasting, the latter being the differentiating element of each individual vacation package.
When you are attentive to the needs of your customers and want to provide them with authentic experiences, think about what it is up to you to provide those experiences. Building an accommodation unit is not an easy thing, it requires time and a planned budget. But being able to link some solid collaborations in the region and create new experiences is something you can do. We welcome the initiative of Villa Vinea winery for the creation of these tourist packages and we hope that a good part of those who read this article will be curious about a wine tasting experience with accommodation in Transylvania.
Moreover, Villa Vinea chose its accommodation partners also for the fact that there are other leisure options on site, at the accommodation. So those who opt for a package with 1 night accommodation and wine tasting at Villa Vinea, can spend more time in the area and enjoy access to the pool or spa (Hotel Privo, Boutique Hotel Le Baron, Castel Haller ), truffle hunting (Boutique Hotel Le Baron, Valea Verde Retreat), yoga (Valea Verde Retreat) or the possibility of visiting the city of Târgu Mureș (Hotel Privo). You can learn more about all these options when you make a reservation for one of the tasting packages with accommodation.
In addition to the options of tasting packages with accommodation included, Villa Vinea has another tourist product that it promotes: after the recent modernization of the winery which brought several new tasting spaces, the winery launched in the summer of 2024 the program "Saturday, wine at the winery" announcing that it is open for visits every Saturday. The tours start at fixed times, 11:00, 13:30 and 16:00, include the winery tour, tasting of 5 wines and platters with bread, cheese and dried raw meat, and for these there is no minimum number of people. We have talked about these tours in detail in this article.
Winesday App welcomes the initiative of Villa Vinea winery to develop the tourism side of the winery and we hope that in the future wine tourism in Romania will develop even more!
