The Mediterranean influence is evident in every detail of this notable property. A custom stone staircase from the motor court leads to the ten-foot-high arched iron and glass front door entry. Curved lines, Italian marble, hand painted frescos, and custom tile work all combine to create an authentic Tuscan experience.Sweeping views from the elegant living room become the backdrop for the upstairs living space. The living room boasts soaring ceilings, a robust fireplace, and a unique floor of inlaid Italian Nosiette tumbled marble and distressed Brazilian walnut hardwood. Enjoy the coastal view which melds into the waters of the infinity pool. The gourmet kitchen offers ease and convenience for family meals and entertaining. It has new professional-quality appliances, a prep sink, an Advantium microwave convection oven, and a spectacular double oven Thermador range. Adjacent to the kitchen is the family room with wet bar, casual dining table, 50” flat screen TV and fireplace.

Perfect Way to Spend Our Holiday Week as a Family

Our stay at Villa Vista Bella was the perfect way to spend our holiday week as a family. The amazing views and serene beauty provided the perfect setting to relax and enjoy ourselves. We enjoyed the city views, coastal views, mountain views, and views of the Channel Islands. We watched sunsets and admired the changing colors in the sky at dusk. The kids loved the pool, the spacious rooms, and especially the Christmas tree so that Santa did not forget them. My husband and I loved the fireplaces in so many rooms and spent many nights cozying next to them while watching the twinkling city lights. We enjoyed unwinding after a day of hiking or sightseeing in the spa every night. We filled up the home with a lot of laughter, love, and fun. Thank you for your wonderful service at your lovely estate!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Our second visit to Villa Vista Bella was a charm! We love your perch on top of Heaven. Your home is so lovely and full of interesting details. It is a close call....VVB or Disneyland! Difficult to head back east. Thanks!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

From the moment we arrived we knew we had come to one of those special places! The home itself can only be described as stunning, the setting is absolutely perfect. Everything we could have hoped for and more! in fact, once we arrived our plans changed...we decided we did not need to go out anywhere so we spent the entire weekend just enjoying this amazing place. We had the pleasure of meeting Jim, the homeowner, which gave the home a personal identity and we instantly knew that this is a place to which we will definitely return. Thank you Jim and his wife for generously sharing your spectacular home! ...and it really does feel like home, not like a showcase, magazine page vacation rental. We really created a weekend of wonderful, lifelong memories here and will definitely recommend to everyone. Also have to note their value for money..you would have to go a very long way to beat this. Job well done all around, keep up the good work! Until we return....Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We enjoyed our stay at Villa Vista Bella. The view was beautiful and the homes windows are placed to enjoy the most of the surrounding area. We enjoyed the fireplaces and most of all the heated pool. Our guests were made up of mothers and daughters who left here feeling as they had just experienced a once in a lifetime moment.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0
