Did a Girl's trip for our 60th. Plenty of room for everyone. The jacuzzi was great to watch the sunset in. Balloons in the morning was great to drink our coffee too.Loved the location and privacy. It looked just like the pictures!
Our stay in the wine Country of Temecula was absolutely amazing.
The home was beautiful, clean, and overall a great vacation home to stay in.
The sunsets at night are to look forward too!
Would love to return again.
We had a wonderful time in Temecula at this home. It was clean, expansive and everything we were looking for during our 3 day stay. We had fun in the pool and this trip provided plenty of rest and relaxation.
Thank you!
This is the second time we've stated this lovely property for our three generational summer vacation. We love the property, plenty of space for everyone and the pool is exquisite with a beautiful view. We will definitely be going back next year. Michael is very responsive to any inquiries, which is much appreciated
Moms weekend in wine country at Michael’s beautiful home was just what we needed. The house is large and comfortable with spectacular views of Temecula especially in the evening. Michael’s communication was always fast and appreciated. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
The absolute perfect place to host a bridal party. Plenty of room for the girls to get ready and hang out. The property made it easy to catch up, have a glass of wine or take a few minutes for yourself. The views were great, the house amazing...over all experience was perfect. We will be back!
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.
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.
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!
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!
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!
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 ;)
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........
Beautiful property, all bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. Plenty of entertainment spaces.The view is breath-taking, we watched the hot air balloons in the morning and early evenings. House is due for a thorough cleaning and some minor repairs with outlets and locks.Overall with enjoyed our stay and the host was very responsive!
The house was very nice. It is extremely spacious, and the views are beautiful. There were hot air balloons in the morning and the surrounding area is very quiet which was lovely. There are a lot of rules to follow so if you are not someone who likes to follow rules like me it may be difficult for you. The pool was not heated (we went in the fall/winter,) but the jacuzzi is operational. The host was responsive and kind.
