Enjoy the good life in one of Napa's finest neighborhoods. This is a tastefully restored 1940's bungalow home with everything you need to enjoy your sun-filled days in comfort and relaxation. The home includes nice landscaping, and great outdoor living with a large backyard, gas BBQ, deck, maple trees and a picnic table.
Built by Napa legend Devita, the home is light, airy, and open - a perfect vacation getaway. This house sits on a corner lot on a quiet tree-lined street. The backyard is fully fenced with locking gates. The fence is covered with vines, keeping it private and quiet. French doors open from the dining room and master bedroom to the deck and backyard, looking out through trees to the Napa hills.
You'll enjoy comforts ranging from a plush king bed in the master bedroom, to the flat screen HD t.v. in living room (and both bedrooms), a movie library, books, magazines, iPod hookup to Bose system, cable music and endless cable t.v. channels. Cook your dinner in the fully equipped tile and slate kitchen. Use the wine cooler to keep your wines the perfect temperature during your stay. Relax sipping Cabernet in a crystal Riedel glass on the deck looking out at the stars. Spend a sunny day hiking in nearby Skyline Park, and wine tasting just down the road at one of Napa's great wineries.
The house provides full amenities including high thread count cotton sheets and towels, down comforters with crisp white duvet covers, soaps, shampoos and bath salts. There are also 2 hybrid bikes for your use.
A brand new computer with high speed internet and printer is available for last minute planning and printing, maps or research. Or bring your laptop and surf wirelessly from the couch or lounge chair in the yard.
The house is 1.4 miles away from downtown Napa. Visit the nearby di Rosa Art and Nature Preserve, and local wineries like Mondavi, Cakebread, Silver Oak, BV, Alpha Omega and more. Located at the foot of highway 29 and the Silverado Trail, everything is close and easy to find. Drive 45 miles south to San Francisco and spend a day in the city.
Our visitor's guide provides maps and suggestions for local dining and wine tasting. There is also information on nearby tennis, mountain biking, road biking on Mt. Veeder, a gym with a pool, steam room and sauna, parks, outlet shopping, world class restaurants and more.

Devita Bungalow - Napa Luxury and Comfort with Outdoor Living
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Napa
I've always loved coming to Napa (from my home in San Francisco) and have a great interest in wine and the outdoors. I chose this property due to its indoor/outdoor feel, the quaint, safe, and friendly neighborhood, and the comfortable back yard to relax in (with 'Devon' my Pomeranian). Working as a finance professional in Silicon Valley I find spending time in the Devita Bunglow to be a perfect way to wind down.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Guests comment that the Devita Bungalow is a warm and comfortable place for their vacation stay. They are often impressed by the simple yet elegant design and that it is nicer than the pictures convey. "From the fireplace to the paint colors on the wall, to the spacious backyard, everything was perfect," wrote one guest. Our guests like the location because it is central to everything, with easy access to highway 29, leading to Yountville, St. Helena and Calistoga and all the great wineries in between.
The architecture of the house was ahead of its time and unlike most homes built in the 40's, offers open rooms with big windows letting in lots of light in every room. We ensure our guests enjoy the same luxuries we do while staying at the Bungalow by providing high-end amenities such as Hotel brand sheets, Riedel wine glasses and decanter, Crate & Barrel tableware, even hybrid bicycles to take a scenic tour around the neighborhood and to nearby downtown Napa.
We enjoy providing a great place for you to spend your vacation, and strive to create a home that is nicer than any hotel or B&B, but at a reasonable price. We hope you have a wonderful stay in Napa.
Great Mexican food 2 blocks away.
Enjoy fresh produce, fine foods, wines and cheese tasting, and local products.
Restaurants Celedon, Angele, Sweetie Pies, Napa Marketplace, Silos (live entertainment)
Take the hybrid bikes (available during your stay) to the hillside park down the road, or along the Silverado Trail/Hiway 121.

Owner's Map of Napa
Hi, I'm Michelle and thanks for browsing my vacation rental. We purchased this property in Napa in 2007 as a place to get away from the city, and to relax and spend time with friends and family. The wine country, with its perfect climate and beautiful scenery season to season, is a great place to do just about anything you like, and this house is close to everything. I enjoy Barbecues in the private backyard as well as dining at the many nearby world class restaurants, and, of course, visiting all the nearby wineries.

"We love your home! it's perfectly appointed and the gardens and neighborhood are fragrant and lovely. We had an absolutely wonderful dinner at Ubuntu - we had heard lots about it and it exceeded our high expectations. We also discovered a great wine store - Back Room Wines on 1st St. that has Friday evening tastings. We can't wait to return."

Some of the wine tastings to go to: Del Dotto on Hway 29 in St. Helena ($50 per person but worth it), Larkmean, Reynold's, Frank family (Across form larkmeand) Miner. There are tons to go see!

This is a great place to vacation and get away for the week. We will be back! Thanks."

"Wonderful stay in your lovely home during our visit to Napa. While we had no shortage of restaurants to sample, the opportunity to stay in certain evenings and cook added to our trip. Lovely kitchen! We also enjoyed using the bikes to explore the neighborhood. Your recommendations for places to check out also came in extremely handy as did the wine refrigerator. The back yard is lovely and the bedrooms were extremely comfortable. All in all, our visit was fantastic. If we return to Napa, we will definitely wish to return to this lovely home. Many thanks!"

"What a great find. Close to everything and a fabulous place to relax and unwind in the evening. The deck and gardens were warm and welcoming. Fresh rosemary in the garden for the nights we cooked in was so nice. In the area we enjoyed the Castrello di Amorosa (the Castle) winery and the sensory experience at the Franciscian. We also enjoyed a leisurely lunch on the wine train, one of our favorite activities. Dinner at Bistro Jeanty capped our stay with a wonderful mean in a very nice setting. The five days we spent here was not near enough time. We hope your enjoy your stay. Thanks for everything."

"We loved your home and it was perfect for our vacation. The Robert Mondavi winery was the best. The Frank family vineyards were nice- free too! ZUZU downtown was awefome and just right for the first day. Napa Valely Grill in Yountville was wonderful and we highly recommend the Taste of Yountville. Pizzera Tra Vigne in st. Helena served excellent pizza and fride Risotto Ball..very tasty. Rombaur Vineyards was NOT as great as everyone recommended. Thank you so much for all your recommendations. We look forward to returning to CA, Napa and your lovely home"

We would have loved to stay longer and will definitely be back in the future. For dinner, ZUZU's was fantastic and the Rutherford Grill & Go Fish were great lunch stops. while visiting the wineries."

"We arrived late Thursday night to a beautiful warm bungalow. From the fireplace, to the paint colors on the wall, to the spacious backyard, everything was perfect. We had an amazing time exploring Napa valley's finest wineries and a delicious dinner at the "Farm" at the Los Caneros Inn. Thank you for making our President's Day weekend/Valentine's Day so memorable. You have a beautiful home."
