The property was magnigico in every sense. There are loads of things to do at the house plus walking distance to superb wineries just down the road. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need for meal preps including a well stocked spice cabinet. The pool area is great for conversations in several areas with the bar handy. I would recommend adding dimmer switches to the lights as it gets very bright and a few small tables next to the chaise lounges for placing valuables while swimming would be a nice touch. Alex was very responsive and easy to get ahold of and very amenable to work with.

Perfect Place for a Bachelorette in Wine Country

The location of this house was perfect being central to most wineries (also walking distance to a few). We loved the common spaces, especially the open kitchen / living space. Definitely recommend for a large group, as the # of bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect!

Amazing property managed by a great host. The communication was crystal clear from the start and the host was very accommodating to changes in guests throughout the planning process. Rules are made clear and more importantly, very simple so you aren't scrambling with a million things to take care of prior to check out.I want to give Alex another shout out for his friendliness as a host. He will make it easy for you whether you have a small group or a big one.The property has everything you need and more. Pictures don't do it justice. All the amenities were what we expected.In terms of location, its walking distance, or mostly a short drive from many wineries. Alex also provides a list of his recommendations, which is important because there are so many places to choose from. Quite honestly, it was difficult to get out of the house because there were so many fun things to do just in the backyard alone.Thank you Alex for your hospitality!

Fantastic stay at the Villa Magnifica

The house is amazing, Temecula is a hidden gem, and Alex was fantastic to work with. Our family had so much fun enjoying the house we found ourselves playing games in the backyard, enjoying the pool and relaxing in the hot tub most days. Each family had their own room and we all sat around a gorgeous long table to have meals together. Our experience was amazing and we will put the Villa Magnifica on our list of must return.

This was our 2nd time here since our last stay in 2020. The house, pool with massive outdoor seating/lounging area and sport equipment were perfect for our extended family of 15. Alex was a perfect host, making sure we had everything we needed. The pickle ball and basketball court was a nice addition. We enjoyed the beautiful kitchen and the two outdoor barbecues. Our family of bakers, cooks, athletes and grandchildren had a wonderful time.

Unforgettable Stay

We were blown away by Villa Magnifica and Alex's hospitality. The house is spacious, clean, beautifully furnished / decorated, and has all the amenities you could possibly want for a relaxing and luxurious getaway (e.g. quality HVAC, outdoor beverage fridge, pizza oven, makeup vanities, pool floaties, outdoor heating lamps, plenty of comfy recliners, etc.). Every morning we would take a stroll to soak in the beautiful landscape surrounding the house. It is also just a walk or short uber away from Temecula's nicest wineries. Alex was very communicative and accommodating of our large group requests and made the check-in and check-out process effortless. Thanks so much for an unforgettable weekend!

Awesome family gathering house!

We had our three adult children and their spouses and seven grandchildren stay at Villa Magnifica. There was plenty of room for all. We especially enjoyed the large dining table and well stocked kitchen. With 15 people having the double dish washers came in handy. The outdoor space was safe and provided hours of enjoyment for both the children and the adults. Close to wineries but truly we enjoyed just “staying home.”

Lovely stay at Villa Magnifica

The property was perfect for our family stay during our wedding. The kitchen was well equipped and there was plenty of hang out space for our large party. The ONLY thing I wish was a little different is that we were hit with a couple of fees after we initially booked that was not a part of the initial price - the listing price is for 12 guests and so it cost more money after booking (which is okay, we just would have liked to be aware of it as we booked it with the higher number guest count). Other than that, our stay was wonderful!

Perfect place for a Family Reunion

We just got home from an amazing long weekend at Villa Magnifica! The place is gorgeous inside and out. We loved gathering at the large dining room table for dinner after a day of swimming. The backyard does not dissappoint -ping pong, corn hole, soccer, basketball and putting green were our favorites. Every bedroom has a TV and ceiling fan and the showers are spectacular. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need (we loved the ice maker!) and plenty of towels for pool and spa. Wineries really are close enough to walk. Thank you Alex for being a great host! We can't wait to come back!

Wonderful space for family time!!

Spacious inside and fun outside. We brought two families together to celebrate the marriage of our children. It was the first time meeting some of the family members and the home provided the opportunity to play ping pong, golf, volleyball and other activities so we could bond and let out our competitive personalities. Fun was had by everyone. Beautiful pool and hot tub and good conversation areas. The house is a 10 out of 10.
