Perfect for large families and our rehearsal dinner!
We used this property for my family to stay ahead of our wedding. We also used it for the rehearsal dinner the night before. The views are STUNNING, everyone was in awe. The property itself is so nice and spacious with amazing outdoor amenities. A peaceful breakfast outside on the patio was my favorite. My family enjoyed being able to stay together, it was truly a highlight of our wedding weekend. Vlada was also amazing to work with, always so fast to respond to all my questions! The only cons I would say were: - Not enough bathrooms for everyone. Not the worst to have to share but I think it would have been better if we could have our own bathrooms. - some of the provided appliances likely need an update. For example the toasters didn’t work well at heating bread - the rooster calls quite early in the morning. It was a charming touch but just be prepared to get up early if you are staying in the rooms next to the rooster Thank you for giving us a beautiful memorable stay!

Wonderful stay
The property is gorgeous with stunning views, well furnished and very comfortable. Vlada the property owner/manager is most warm, hospitable and accommodating. She was very responsive and went out of her way to make our stay memorable. The wifi was not very effective as would be expected I guess, given the mountains. Other than that we had a lovely time with our family. Highly recommend it!

Dad's 90th Birthday Celebration
My siblings and I surprised my dad with a short vacation in Temecula with 6 of his 9 remaining siblings. Age Range 71 -89. They flew in from the East coast and as far as the Philippines. The house had some challenges mainly stairs and step downs (inside) but the driveway to the back of the house and just getting used to the layout of the house solved those issue. The best part of the house was the kitchen and family room area. This was the best stocked kitchen I have ever been in a VRBO (I have stayed in many in Temecula) appliances, pots, pans, utensils, etc. and good quality considering its a rental. Almost any thing we need it was there in varying sizes. My aunts loved it all and the kitchen table accommodated all of us which was especially nice after dinner games & visiting. They also loved the garden, lemon grove and the chickens. We had a night of smores; which I did not know several of them had not know what that was. Of course they loved it. I wish we could have spent more time outside and enjoyed the beautiful view more. It was too cold for them. Minimal downside, no shower in the hall bathroom and only one TV with no cable. But very minor issues. Overall we had a great time and the host was very kind and accommodating. My dad had a wonderful birthday surprise.

The perfect weekend!
My (now) husband and I had our wedding here and we couldn’t have been happier! It was a very low-key, intimate ceremony with our closest friends and family, all from out of state. The views were amazing, the house and location were great. It truly was the perfect spot. Vlada was so responsive and so sweet! She greeted us with hugs and was wonderful to work with. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Words can’t express how much we enjoyed staying at Villa de la Vine. The view from the property and some of the rooms was spectacular. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of towels to accommodate the whole family. Our bride enjoyed the use of the master suite sitting room to prepare for her wedding. The house is stunning and made our few days there relaxing and enjoyable. The house was close to the places we needed to be at and visit. Thank you for sharing beautiful Villa de la Vine with us.

Family Birthday Weekend
Our family was celebrating my wife’s surprise birthday party. We could not have picked a better property. Saturday nights out door dinner plans, overlooking the valley below, were interrupted by rain but the spacious covered patio saved our catered “hibachi” style party from disaster. Unfortunately, the patio was on the opposite side of the property and our party voices rattled our neighbors instead of carrying harmlessly to the the valley below. When our host received complaints, her calm and understanding response to us alllowed us to regroup and continue our wonderful weekend at Villa de la Vine. Five out of Five Stars for Villa de la Vine with and extra Star for it’s owner. Thank you Vlada!!!!

Perfect Wedding Weekend
First and foremost, I want to thank Vlada for all of the communication, tours and assistance. She is a remarkable host and is, hands down, a wonderful woman. She helped us facilitate a wedding weekend so perfect, I couldn't have dreamed up anything better. She allowed my mother and grandmother to come visit the property with me prior to our stay. That was beyond perfect as my grandmother was unable to attend the wedding due to my grandfather's failing health. We were able to gather our closest family and friends in the house, with the rest of the guests renting homes near by. It was such a beautiful weekend, merging the families and the pictures of the venue speak for themselves. It is is even better in person. It was so incredible to be able to put my sister, her family and our step mother in the attached apartment as my sister has small children, as it was close no one had to miss any of the celebrations to deal with cranky toddlers or bed time blues. It was amazing. They even thanked me for allowing them to enjoy the weekend by thinking of them in that way. We will be back! Many family reunions to come. Thank you for helping us celebrate our wedding. The house and yard were a beyond perfect venue. THANK YOU VLADA YOU ARE THE BEST!

Lovely property for our family holiday
The property is lovely and exactly as pictured. The neighborhood and views were even better than expected! We were so happy to be able to get our large family together in one place. The large kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed for cooking and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Only small downsides - The neighbors house behind is quite close so you can't make noise on the back patio at night, which is too bad because that is where everyone naturally gathers outside near the kitchen and the weather was nice. We came inside and closed all the windows to avoid any noise complaints. Also be aware there are chickens on the property. Some of our guests were awakened at sunrise by the roosters, but they are not that close to the bedrooms and did not bother me at all. As described, several of the rooms do not have bathrooms and there is only one shared 1/2 bath. Some guests will need to shower in another bedroom's shower, but this was also not a problem for us. If you also rent the apartment attached to the house, be aware that this is a private residence and their things are in the closets and cabinets. They make room for guests things too, but just a portion of the closet. Also not a problem, but good to know if you are someone that prefers to unpack or if you were staying for more than a few days. Vlada was great to work with and very nice. She was able to accomodate our big crazy family and all of the dogs too. You really feel connected with nature here with the fruit trees, grape vines and amazing views. We had a sunset dinner on the big table in the vineyard and it felt like we took a trip to Italy. I would highly recommend this property.

My family of 8 had a wonderful time during our stay at this house in Temecula. The house is huge which provided an appreciated level of privacy for 8 adults. The kitchen is fully stocked which we utilized several times. The best part of the house though are the truly stunning views that surround the property. My family really enjoyed sitting around the fire, under the market lights to watch the sunset over the hills. Will definitely book here again.
