The house was absolutely amazing. The back yard and view are spectacular. The location is perfect, short driving distance from most of the wineries in the area, and not too far from Old Town Temecula. Communication with the owner was always easy and quick. Highly recommended!

Wedding Home Base
We stayed here during our sons wedding that was in Temecula Wine Country. The house was perfect for 4 couples allowing everyone in suite bedrooms and plenty of space. The outside pool, hot tub and outside valley view setting was fantastic. I would highly recommend this house if your visiting Temecula wine country.

Special family getaway
Beautifully appointed, INCREDIBLY spacious property that feels secluded and unique. The views of the wine valley at all times of day are mesmerizing, the pool is a gem, and the house feels solid and comfortable. We saw a lot of wildlife as well- condors, deer, coyotes, quails, rabbits and geckos …. All the culinary tools and space in the kitchen you could want. Our host was responsive and cordial. Just a wonderfully place to celebrate.

Holiday Hijinks 2023!
For the last 10 years we have taken our family on a getaway between Christmas and New Years. My husband and I say to our kids/grandkids "this is our gift to you, and your gift to us is coming along and spending time together!". Villa Serenita was just perfect for us, especially as far as size for our group, and proximity of where we all live. We would love to return in the summer! Thanks to our host who provided an awesome place to make some treasured memories!

Relaxing in Temecula
Michael was a wonderful host. He responded immediately to any questions or needs we presented. The property is spacious, clean and well appointed. The view was truly spectacular. We enjoyed watching the hot air balloons hover over the valley in the mornings and soaking in the hot tub while watching the sunsets in the evenings.

Large home and stunning sunsets
The photos in the listing don’t do the size of this house justice- it is so large and spacious! The decor was a bit dated for my personal taste, but the furnishings were comfortable and functional. The inside of the house is just an appetizer to the delicious and amazing views on the back patio and yard. You can view the hot air balloon launches in the morning and watch gorgeous sunsets in the evening. The pool furniture is abundant and very comfortable. There is plenty of outdoor living space for warm days/nights! Check in was seamless with a digital door code and the size was perfect for a group of 10!

Annual Family Vacay
For the past six years, Temecula has been our destination for our annual three generational family vacation. We love lounging by the pool, playing board games, grilling, and just spending time together. This house far exceeded any of our previous stays! The pool is spectacular, the barbecue set up is perfect, the interior is lovely and well equipped. And it is large enough so that everyone had their own space. Michael was extremely responsive to my numerous questions and requests. We will definitely be back again next year!

Thanksgiving 2023 with the Happy 6
Our happy memory making trip began Wednesday and included delicious meals prepared in the gorgeous kitchen at this home. We are a family of home cooks with a deep fondness for creating tasty dishes from recipes passed on from our loved ones as well as new meals. Villa Serenita sits atop a most beautiful hill with a view from where so much of our joy begins and ends each day, in the kitchen! Thank you to Michael, the property manager for his wonderful communication and help with arranging our stay. God bless us everyone this season. May others find time to spend with their friends and family making happy memories. It is worth every minute doing so for our growing family, now 3 married couples ;)

Wedding Weekend Fun
Yes,this is a gorgeous property; however it is in need of a little TLC. The furnishings are wonderful except, they are a little worn and in need of cleaning or replacement. Also, the toilets in the bathroom: three of the flushers kept falling off and the seats were old and yellow. The luxurious sheets in the master had holes in them. There are rules to follow with heating the pool, jacuzzi and grill which are cumbersome. So, yes the property is beautiful but in need of serious maintenance. We had a great time even though........

Disappointed
This was our 6th time staying at this property. For the past 5 stays the property was always well represented online and in person. I felt like we knew the owners and they knew us. This time, however we were disappointed to find makeshift painting to cover up wall scuffs, drains clogged, light bulbs out, etc. While these items may seem small, the cost for us staying there was not. My family and our friends are used to living and staying in residences where this is unacceptable. To add insult to injury, when we reached out to the homes "manager", they had no idea that we had been valued and loyal customers for years. Additionally, the only attempt to remedy the situation was to send somebody out with a bottle of Drain o for the clog. Its unfortunate that such a lovely home is not being care for the way they home should be taken care of.

Little slice of paradise
My wife and my sons (6 and 7) came to Temecula and stayed at this property for 9 days. The home is absolutely beautiful and well kept. Micheal was a great host and was more than accommodating. The pool and backyard area was amazing. The area is private and the views are unbelievable. I had coffee outside every morning outside and enjoyed the view. Pool and hot tub were great. Clean and the temp was perfect. Kitchen is stocked with high end appliances and all the cookware and dishes you could ever. We would definitely stay here again.
