Alex, the host, was very responsive to answering all my questions. Everything was spectacular: amenities, spaciousness, and cleaniness. You will not go wrong by booking this house! We had 16 girls staying at the house and everyone loved the experience!
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.
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!
Great location, we walked to three wineries.The villa was very clean, kitchen had three coffee makers, host provided many ammenities. I talked to the host before making the reservation, he called when we checked in, and the next day after we checked out. Always available and ready to be helpful and answere questions. The back yard was like a resort.Our group would love to stay at the villa next year.
Beautiful property and wonderful experience. We had a group of 18 people stay here for the weekend, and everyone had a great time!! We will be back for sure.
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!
Great family gathering place. Lovely back yard with tons to do!
Property was just as it was described. Clean, kitchen well equipped, bathrooms also nicely equipped, great showers. Pool and backyard was perfect to play in. Great space both inside the main great room/dining area as well as the outdoors.
The place was great. Clean comfortable beds. Great outdoor space. Host was very responsive. Was a great gathering space for family for wedding in temecula
Only items to improve would be pickleball court (as balls don’t bounce) and so many rules for house and visitors
We had an absolutely wonderful time celebrating a friend’s bachelorette party! The house was stunning, had plenty of space, very clean, and was accurately described online. The host was very communicative and helpful. I would 100% recommend this location!
This house was perfect for our family to stay in while in town to get married. The hosts were attentive and there were helpful videos for all appliances. Those rose bushes are gorgeous! Before we left there were already talks of returning to the house on a future anniversary.
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.

Hi Eric, thank you so much for such a nice review on Villa Magnifica! You certainly have made my day:)
You and your group were fantastic guests and you guys are welcome back any time. It will be my great honor to have you and your family back at Villa Magnifica.
Please know that we get booked almost a year in advanced, so please keep this in mind when planning coming back.
Again, thank you so much for such a nice review!
I recently got married at Wilson creek winery and my family and I stayed here for my wedding week. Everything was more than I expected at this place, it was absolutely perfect! The property is beautiful, the house is clean and equipped with everything you need. The host called and checked in on me when we got there to make sure our stay was the best possible. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for the best week of my life!
We were a large party on a corporate retreat with our significant others. We had an enjoyable stay. The house was well stocked. Property manager was easily accessible. The grounds could use some upgrades. Overall, we had a really nice time and the house and amenities served our needs. I would definitely recommend this property.
The host was very communicative and the venue was just like the photos. The only issue was having to clean up the place before check out time; we did not have ample time to clean as much as we wanted! We had 20 people staying so of course we had a lot to take care of.

I Joseph, I don't understand why you gave me four starts. You told me you loved the house and that it was much better than what you expected.
I do appreciate you cleaning the house, but this was not even a requirement. To give four start just because you didn't have time to clean the house doesn't make much sense:(
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.
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.”
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!

Hi Lyndsey:
As I mentioned before, all or fees are very clearly described under our rules and on the first message that we sent to you the same day you booked. I am sorry that you missed those fees. We do not charge any fee that is not advertised or disclosed before or on the same date that you book.
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!
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.
