- Megan AClovis, California4 contributions2 for 2 at the InnWe spent last weekend at the Opolo Inn. This was our second time and it was just as amazing as the first. Quiet, relaxing and serene. We enjoyed every moment at the Inn and took a walk around the grounds this time. Before we left, we booked another weekend in May 2024. See you soon!Visited January 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 4 February 2024
- carlotaTravel4fun650 contributionsPleasant afternoonThe drive to this winery was down a pleasant country road. The seating was on a large patio overlooking the countryside and vineyards. Many people were there enjoying lunch and sampling wine. We had a very attentive server, tasted a few wines, and bought a couple of bottles. All in all it was a pleasant experience.Visited March 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 28 May 2024
- Janet MCordova, Tennessee816 contributionsBeautiful View From the Winery!This was the first winery we visited in Paso Robles and we had a two for one wine tasting coupon. Our wine tasting was waved since we brought two bottles of 2021 White Zinfandel ($32.00 each). The winery also has The Inn @ Opolo and a patio that serves food. Nice service and staff.Visited December 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 5 July 2024
- CHATTravelsLos Angeles, California140 contributionsA gem of a vineyard!Came here from a recommendation from a friend ( “ they have the best pizza and you must go there for lunch and for wine tasting!” she insisted) and we’re glad we did. We didn’t make a reservation and just walked in, and took our chances in case they weren’t fully booked on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. It was a beautiful day, not too warm. We were seated in a table with the view of the beautiful backdrop of vineyards. Menu looked good and the wine tasting as Sherri, our server, explained everything. She gave us great recommendations and explained to us each wine that she would serve us. We ordered their signature pizza and a board of charcuterie to go with our wine tasting per Sherri’s recommendations. We were happy we did! They truly had great pizza and definitely good wines! Overall, we enjoyed the whole wine tasting and the pizza was the best!Who would have known? We ended up ordering a case of each of their signature and best selling Zinfandel and their best selling Chardonnay!Visited May 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 30 July 2024

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were driving from Santa Barbara and saw their billboard and decided to call about stopping for lunch. Over the phone they said they don't take reservations for lunch but that we should come by. I specifically gave them the time we'd be there to double check feasibility and she again said, no problem, might be a 5-10 wait but that's as bad as it will get. So we went 45 min out of our way to visit, we get there, the woman at the front tells us that members are actually able to make reservations so they're all booked up actually. When I told her what I was told when I called she just shrugged and said sometimes they mislead people over the phone. Wow.
I've spent a ton of time in Paso and always hesitated to visit Opolo because it looked touristy . And now that I can confirm poor customer service. Don't visit here when there are SO many friendly wineries nearby that would love your business and treat you with respect.

We are from Canada and visited this winery last year and loved it. Both the experience and wines were amazing so we decided to visit it again this year too. Wines and “tri kobasice” were still amazing but the experience was ruined by our hostess Chiney who neglected us and showed no interest. We ordered wine tasting along with our “tri kobasica” and waited for ever for each subsequent pour. She would disappear after every pour and we could now find her on the patio. Then she would show up, recite what she had to say and disappear behind “tasting room doors”. I went into the “tasting room” and she was not there either. We could not call her. At the end she just said here is the form if you want to purchase any wines and disappeared again but this time she did not return. We waited thinking she would talk to us what we would like to purchase and help us out in making the decision but we were out of luck. Luckily we knew where to go to pay from last year and we asked another hostess to help us out with purchasing the wines.

Walk-ins welcome? Not really! We went with the intention to buy wine and become members and had a hideous experience.
Pours were barely enough to wet the bottom of the glass. We were mostly ignored. Asked for water and got 1/3 cup tap water.
Server (Rachel) was opinionated and condescending. My boyfriend said it was the first time he's left a winery angry. We were made to feel inferior because we were "walk-ins" and told we had to have our tasting standing up at the counter inside. We weren't allowed to sit outside. (Seriously?) Forget about feeling comfortable and enjoying the experience. Taste, pay, and get out. Not sure how they get anyone to join.
We were told a purchase would waive the tasting fee. Said I'd buy 2 bottles but told I had to buy 3 bottles to waive one tasting. LOL. Not paying $40 for 2 tastings and full price for 2 bottles. Cash me out and we'll join another winery. Won't EVER support Opolo again! This was our rock bottom wine tasting experience.

We had booked a car for a week in Mallorca with fully comprehensive insurance and additional insurance for the fully comprehensive excess in advance via Opodo on the Internet and paid around 200 euros for everything. The car rental company Goldcar was named as the local cooperation partner at the airport. When we arrived there late in the evening, we were blackmailed in a nasty and impudent manner by the Goldcar employee. He wanted another 150 euros from us to cover the excess. He said he didn't want to have a discussion at the counter. If we didn't pay, he would give the car to another customer and pointed to the long line behind us. When I showed him our Opodo contract, which said that we didn't need any further insurance, he said that he wasn't interested. In future, we should rent our car directly from him on site and not over the Internet, then something like that won't happen.
Since we had already paid 200 euros for the car, it was late in the evening and we had already waited in line for an hour and were tired, we bit the bullet and signed and paid.
In response to our complaint, Opodo twisted around in every direction and took absolutely no responsibility for its Mallorcan cooperation partner, who we had not chosen.
We have the feeling that this scam is pulled regularly here.
In addition, we had to pay a deposit of 170 euros!!!! for the full petrol tank.
We have now hired a lawyer.
Beware of this company!

I had an incredibly disappointing experience here as a part of a group tasting. Right off the bat, the server forgot my table with the first pour. We waited patiently and it wasn’t until the other tables began to get their second pour did we mention it. She poured me the bottoms of not one but TWO bottles, a pour that didn’t even equate 2oz. Because of this delay, the server continually forgot/overlooked us as she assumed we were caught up with the group. When we mentioned we never received our 4th tasting (as part of the menu) she actually accused us of lying! She stated firmly “she gave it to us” when she hadn’t, she was pouring seconds for the other tables! I attached a photo of the minuscule pours - when I asked why they were so small, she said “well this is JUST a tasting.” I’ve been to wineries in Spain, Chile, France, Niagara and NEVER have been poured so little or treated so poorly!

Opolo has one of my favorite zinfandels I have ever tasted. I ordered 2 bottles of their Mountain Zinfandel due to the black Friday sale they had going on. I knew I would be back again visiting in Paso Robles soon and had to snag a couple of bottles because they can no longer ship to my state.
Great prompt service again. When I have more time, I will definitely check out their distillery and do a tasting. Last time I was at Opolo the distillery tasting room did not exist.

Just poor wines, not even mediocre or ok. Overpriced, sales pressure from the staff and the owners were flat out rude. We've been tasting in the Paso area for 12 years and this was the worst experience yet. Dont bother, there are so many other fabulous places to try.

Good morning.
I went to Abu Dhabi in March with Opodo.
Flight + hotel (breakfast included!!!) for 2.
Arriving at the hotel, we were told that breakfasts were not included and that I would have to pay for them. I inform opodo who tells me that they will reimburse me at the end on invoice and that's how it is! No other means.
Not happy but with no other option, I pay at the end of my stay and have an invoice drawn up. 14 breakfasts and lots of tax lines and others. But nothing other than payment for 14 breakfasts.!!
I send the invoice to opodo and there, they only reimburse me for the breakfast lines, which is 83 euros less than what I actually paid!!! 4 emails, nothing to do on their side. I even sent my account statement to prove my good faith.
Basically, they are wrong, you are forced to follow their procedure and you get scammed out of a few extra euros despite their error and incompetence.
Nice apology email but no full refund!!
To me it's called a scam!!
Be careful with this site which doesn't care about its customers!!
I strongly advise against!!!

A very nice winery with wonderful views.
We had a delicious lunch before our wine tasting appointment. We sat outside on the covered patio with heat lamps, it was a little chilly, but we warmed up. No food is allowed in the tasting room.
My husband & I shared a Margherita Pizza with fresh tomatoes, basil, mozzarella & parmesan. It was very tasty. A perfect size for a light lunch & the crust was thin. The pizzas are 11 inches with 8 slices. Our lunch also included a glass of wine, but sharing meant only one glass so my husband bought his. We both had the Opolo Sparkling wine, very good with pizza. Besides pizzas, they also offer cheese platters, sausages & salads.
After lunch, we went in the tasting room & tasted some wines. They have a wonderful selection of wines at reasonable prices.
We look forward to returning.

Was thinking about going to the blending party on July 22nd. $130.00 per person seems a bit high. Was wondering from others who have attended in the past if they felt this was a good value or not. Was there food and if there was what type?
Written 9 April 2017
The Opolo Blending parties (3 of them) sell out quickly year after year with many of the attendees coming every year. The food is appetizers, fruit, Deli sandwiches and desserts.
