Rarely Available Executive 3BR/3BA Villa With Views
LATE WINTER SPECIAL: We have just reopened, and we are offering dates for February and March 2026 at a significantly reduced "Winter Rate" to welcome new guests to our 4.97-star hilltop retreat. Book your spring relocation or corporate stay now while these rare dates last!
Step through the doors of this stunning Spanish Mission-style villa and feel the calm of your private Bay Area retreat. The heart of the home is a grand, open-plan living and dining area, designed to bring people together. Sunlight streams through large windows, illuminating the architectural details of this beautiful Spanish-Mission home. This expansive space is perfect for creating cherished moments with family, collaborating with colleagues, or simply unwinding in style after a day of exploration.
When it's time to recharge, retreat to one of three secluded bedroom suites. Uniquely, two of the three spacious bedrooms feature their own dedicated, full en-suite bathroom. The third bedroom has an adjacent bathroom. This thoughtful layout offers unparalleled privacy for corporate travelers sharing the space and provides peaceful separation for family members, ensuring everyone has their own comfortable sanctuary to call their own.

West Coast Villa #2 sits in the hills of Castro Valley, overlooking the valley, with rolling hills, partial views of the San Francisco Bay and Peninsula, and many gorgeous sunsets.
West Coast Villa II is a 1,400-square-foot classy Villa featuring one full bedroom and bathroom on the first floor, and two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second floor, with a full gourmet kitchen, dining area, and living room. You'll be able to cozy up and enjoy the gas fireplace or watch your favorite shows and movies while reclining on the new leather couch and love seat. There is a TV in two of the three bedrooms. In the custom kitchen, we offer a variety of spices, coffees, and teas. It is a great retreat with nice views of the Valley. The home comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests.
By the way, if you need more space, this exclusive property offers additional options.
Just so you know, our property includes two attached Villas. There is no internal access between the homes. We call this house our Villa II, and it has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It features a large kitchen with a fridge/freezer, gas range/oven, a microwave, and a dishwasher. It has an open floor plan, a bar-height dining table, and a large living room with a TV and a gas fireplace. There is one queen bed in each bedroom. The home has 3 TVs.
Due to our unique microclimate, we are often 10°F - 20°F warmer than San Francisco during the day, and we normally cool down at night with the early-evening fog that rolls in from San Francisco.
This wonderful resort is built on a hill, so you enter at ground level, ascend a flight of stairs, and exit to the rear gardens at ground level again, where you can enjoy the lemon trees and the tropical landscaping.
The landscaped and manicured gardens were planted by the owners and are for your enjoyment. You are invited to pick fruit for your personal use from our private "orchard." There are Queen and Pygmy Palms that grace this property. The many varieties of flowers often fill the estate with an intoxicating fragrance of roses, lavender, star jasmine, and orange, lemon, and apple blossoms. There is something fresh for every season.
The Location Advantage
Nestled in the tranquil hills of Castro Valley, you are perfectly positioned to conquer the entire Bay Area. Our location offers the rare combination of suburban peace and quiet with unparalleled access to the region's most iconic destinations. Forget the stress of city congestion; here, you have a serene home base to return to after your daily adventures. This strategic positioning is a common feature of the most sought-after regional rentals.

About the host
Hosted by Don Robertson
I am originally from Vancouver, British Columbia. Krista is from Seattle, Washington and we met at a BBQ in California. It was love at first sight and we were married six months later. We have been blessed with 7 children and 5 grandchildren (so far).
I taught the Bible at a Bible School for twelve years, then Krista and I established a Christian publishing company with a worldwide distribution of books and we retired from that after 25 years. We opened our Villas in 2016 and have hosted more than 12,000 guests from over 67 countries around the world. We are both involved with local and overseas ministry opportunities, a special group of college and career adults at our church, and hospitality.
Hospitality = the love of strangers. Our guests often arrive as strangers and leave as friends.
Travels: Countries one or both of us have visited:
Andorra, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Egypt, England, Fiji, France, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Luxembourg, Mexico, Monaco, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, Wales, as well as a great number of US States.

Why they chose this property
We bought our 5-bedroom villa in 2001 as our family home. We added a 3-bedroom home to the original villa and when we finished it in 2006 we opened our doors for guests from all over the world. The demand for more space kept growing and now we offer 13 different rental options for individuals to groups of 21. This property is located in Castro Valley which is central to all of the San Francisco Bay area sites. It is a great town with a fantastic climate. Join over 12,000 satisfied guests in making one of our villas your next vacation spot.
What makes this property unique
We searched for three years before we found this Villa. We have 7 children and we were outgrowing our small home. We found this home in 2001 as a 5000 square foot, three-bedroom house. We reconfigured the house to make it 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. In 2005 we built the adjoining three-bedroom home and in 2006 we welcomed our first vacation rental guests to our home. The home is now 6500 square feet. This world-renowned Villa has attracted over 12,000 guests from 67 countries, from senators to ambassadors, Silicon Valley businesses like Google, Facebook, and more, to various branches of the military. We have hosted large families, non-profits, corporate giants, professional sports teams, or coaches and their families. We have hosted wedding parties, parents of the bride or groom – or both! We have had film crews, Discovery Channel, and we’ve been sought after by Hollywood studios. And our guests have included wonderful families like yours. Most guests arrive as strangers but leave as friends.
