You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Le Grand Bleu by AvantStay | Luxury Hilltop Estate

This sprawling tropical villa sits on 5.2 acres overlooking Temecula Valley Wine Country. With incredible views, a backyard paradise, and a spacious interior design, your retreat offers plenty of entertainment to help a large group connect and relax. Spend your days by the custom, resort-style saltwater pool with a swim-up bar and shaded palapa, or lounge under the pergola overlooking the surrounding vistas. When evening falls, it's the perfect time to slip into the oversized 15-person hot tub or gather around the large firepit to enjoy sunset views.

Inside, Le Grand Bleu offers two stories, five bedrooms, and four bathrooms, so everyone will have a private space to call their own. The living room is the perfect place to cozy up with a game or a movie night. But if you're feeling competitive there's a pool table and a game room featuring a dart board and ping pong table.

Enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding Valley from the large wrap-around balcony and every corner of your outdoor oasis. You'll be just 5 minutes from the De Portola Wine Trail, with a modern kitchen and large dining table waiting to host group meals back home after exploring the wineries and vineyards.

Blending size, amenities, and custom luxury design, Le Grand Bleu is ready to show your group a Temecula retreat like never before!

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team. Whether it’s fridge stocking or in-home massages, AvantStay offers a variety of upgrades & experiences to enhance your stay.

There's a lot to see in Temecula and even more to drink. Our suggestion? A tour at one of the local wineries so you and your group can sample a diverse range of local flavors. For something less intoxicating but equally fun, visitors can berry-pick at local farms and taste the fruits of their labor. Hot air-ballooning is a stunning way to see the rolling hills of Southern California wine country from every angle and is one of Temecula's most sought-after attractions.

Local Attractions: Old Town Temecula, Hot Air Balloon Tours, Wilson Creek Winery, Bluewater Grill, Vindemia Vineyard & Estate Winery, The Goat & Vine, Trattoria Toscana, Bottaia Winery, The Restaurant at Ponte

Great Views and Location
This property is 30 minutes to Cahuilla MX track and Fox Raceway which we enjoyed immensely. The hot tub is very large with strong jets to massage us after our days f riding mx bikes. The five bedrooms were large and comfortable. Kitchen is large and stocked with everything we needed. BBQ was fantastic! We will definitely be back. Only negative we experienced was the $100.00 per day charge for the hot tub propane which was unexpected. I would include this fee with the rental.

Hospitality on a hilltop
Upon arrival we could not help but notice the beautiful views that overlooked the wine country of Temecula. We were greeted by a clean home and quickly claimed our rooms for the stay. We wandered the property to find the casita that was considered as an add-on. After seeing the barn-like build, we were glad we chose not to add that to our stay. Nonetheless, we were happy to have our family under one roof and happy to to find a home large enough to have our loved ones under one roof. There were however, some inconsistencies with the listing and what was truly allowed. I would highly recommend clarifying with your host the semantics of a “large gathering” vs party. I was both annoyed and embarrassed at the 15 calls and text messages and security being called on us. We had two rentals and only this was harassed by 9pm (quiet hours start at 10p) and our listing was for 18 people at one time. The listing welcomed day time visitors yet this was denied once our payment had been made. It was obvious the host watch the cameras all day because on day 2 of the reservation the host asked us to not park where the “guest parking” sign was and then had us scramble to move our cars.The location and home was breathtaking but the constant egg shells we walked on did not make for a comfortable stay.

Great place to stay with family!
Loved this place! Close to amazing wineries and not far from old town. The backyard was our favorite part of the house! Just a couple things we would’ve like to have had in the house that were missing (can opener, scissors, shower soap missing and not our favorite pillows) but other than that, we would stay here again!!

Some barf on a floatie and in bathroom in rm with separate entrance. Mix up with massage as 3 therapists arrived after I received email that they weren’t coming, so the 3 people were not available. Never got a quote in advance either. 🙁 Online pictures made me think the downstairs rm with separate entrance had a kitchen and love seat, but alas they were not there. Wednesday morning, 6 am, I saw a younger man, thin, Caucasian, in the backyard. He said he was the pool guy, but I was unsure and suspicious. Anyhoo, aside from those things, the place was in great shape. We loved the pool and had a great time. Thank you!!

Temecula
The place was big, lots of things to do. The pool was nice. My issues was that there were ants in the kitchen and one of the bathrooms. We had to clean the tables in the balcony before using them. Looks like they haven't been cleaned for a long time. And the worst thing was the bbq. We prepared a meal and when we went to grill, it just didn't with right. Please invest in better bbq. It really ruined our meal. I had messaged the company about it and no one got back to me. I still don't think they did. Also the beds aren't comfortable. Many of my friends complained about that as well.

Tropical Paradise
Our family of 15, rented this property because it was large enough to accommodate our large group. The pictures of this place showed it had a beautiful pool and it didn't disappoint, it was the highlight of this place. We felt we were in a tropical paradise. The views of the surrounding were spectacular. We didn't want to leave but all good things must come to an end.

Amazing pool
Property is amazing, we very much enjoyed our stay! The biggest complaint we had: technically there is WiFi, but it is way too weak,it literally basically doesn’t exist. When I read “the layout is weird” from other views I didn’t think much of it, but I have to agree. 3 small bedrooms are on main floor with a large kitchen, family room and dining room, master is on the floor below and there is a 5th bedroom also on floor below but with an entirely separate entrance. It must be accessed from outside, and we didn’t realize the room existed for quite some time. Overall the property is wonderful, but there were some tired aspects: broken or missing outdoor umbrellas, the thatched roof over the swim up bar area needs to be replaced. There are no cleaning supplies that we could find and were only given 3 trash bags. We did very much appreciate the unexpected ability to check in early.

VERY NICE PROPERTY - GREAT POOL & VIEW
The property has been newly updated inside. Very nice kitchen, dining area. The backyard/pool area is amazing with amazing views. There are no instructions on how to use any of the ammenities on the property. Also, the kitchen is lacking some of the "basics" has limited pots & pans, only had 4 trashbags for a 3 day stay with 12 people. No trashcans in the pool area. The listing states that there are 5 bdrooms (there are) and 2 pull-outs. I assumed those were going to be pull out sofas. They were actually roll-away cots. Would be fine for kids, but not for 50yr old adults. Would rent the property again.

Some issues with the property
The home itself has a beautiful view and a nice backyard. It has a funky layout, but is very spacious. The interior decorations are dated, but fine. My issue was that the house is only worth the money because of the outdoor space and the pool wasn’t properly heated (despite me paying extra for it) until the last day of our trip, the spa never got over 98 degrees the whole stay (most spas are 101-103), and the fire pit never worked.

Fantastic Time at Le Grand Bleu - Temecula
Best place we've rented by far! Manager, Arrianna (who is very friendly and personable) met us at the home and showed us around, explained how to work everything and answered all of our questions. What a nice change and personal experience, it made our stay more enjoyable. Our family loved the house and pool!! The house layout gave every couple their own personal space and bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped and user friendly. The extra refrigerator down stairs was very helpful. We had an unscheduled power outage during our stay. One text to Arrianna, and the owner brought over lanterns and batteries very quickly (the owner lived closer than Arrianna). She was also very friendly and personable. The outage was short and power returned within10 minutes after we had put all the batteries in the new lanterns. Great customer service we say!! This trip was relaxing, peaceful, enjoyable and we were not ready to leave when our time was up at this location. TWC Villas is the best!!

The property was perfect for our family of 15. Plenty of beds and the pool was phenomenal! The kids had so much fun! Then there were the sunsets! Words cannot describe the beauty! If I could find one fault, it would be the lack of an adequate icemaker. Just stop at the market before coming up the hill. We will definitely be back!

Great for multi family
The house is great if you have a few families staying. Our quarantine pod booked this for New Years. We were told we could heat the pool for an additional charge but because it was so cold out, the pool wouldn’t hold enough heat for comfort. The jacuzzi wasn’t working either when we got there. Kids were bummed but we made it work until they got things operable. The property is amazing though with lots of lounge areas and sunrise/sunset views.

Peaceful Oasis
We had a wonderful weekend escape at this property. The home was spacious and we enjoyed all it had to offer. The pool was absolutely incredible and we really enjoyed the swim up bar as well. The only downside was there is a very strict noise policy and quiet hours. Even taking in a regular volume after 10pm is not recommended and a noise complaint can provide a $500 fine. So as long you aren’t night owls then this place is perfect! It is perfect for anyone looking for a peaceful calming escape from reality. Also the property managers were fantastic!

Stunning Pool and House
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The setup of the house for three individual families was perfect. The pool was just amazing-looked like it was right out of a Mexican resort. It is in a wonderful location. At check in, the house was not up to the Covid-19 cleaning procedures that were promised on the description of the home and the pool was not clean due to a technical issue with the internet on the pump. The owner and manager did a fine job at trying to figure out the pool but it did take a couple of days of our vacation to get it figured out and get the pool clean and warm. They did compensate us for the problem, which we appreciated, but it was still a bummer for sure. All of that aside, we look forward to staying at this gorgeous house again in the future!
