The home & property are beautiful & we were allowed to checkin early, which helped with arrivals in our group. The stay was nice, but there were issues that guests should be aware of. We paid to use the hot tub for the duration of our stay. The 1st night, it wouldn't warm up. Despite being told it was warming up remotely, it never did. Maint came the next day & found an issue that was fixed later that day. The home is on a lg property & we tried to close the blinds for privacy at night but the panel on the slider was broken & unusable. Mgmt said it would be fixed after our departure. The master bath had a vanity repurposed for the room, but the outlets were covered & an ext cord was used. The cord didn't work, so we all shared 1 bath to get ready, which was inconvenient. There were other minor issues & given the property's high-end status, that is worth mentioning. These were reported to mgmt. Upon checkout, we asked for a refund for the day we couldn't use the hot tub. Mgmt required us to fill out a form outside of VRBO, which included agreeing that leaving a review would delay the process. They promised a response in 1-2 wks. I req a refund of 168 after further consideration due to the issues we experienced. After the host reviewed us, we had a 2 wks to review them. Conveniently, they needed an ext to review our request, which I believe was to avoid us leaving a review. VRBO is investigating this. I would avoid staying with SunnyDays due to their questionable processes.
We loved our stay here! The property and the views are gorgeous. The home is clean, the kitchen is state of the art, and the master bedroom is massive. We hope to return soon!
This place is really nice and clean. The outdoor areas are amazing. We just wished it wasnât raining the whole time we were there so we could enjoy the patios and pool. We did use the hot tub and it was quite nice. Beautiful views of vineyards too. Very close drive to many wineries. Highly recommend.
The size and location of the property were perfect. Several gathering places for games and eating. Lovely pool and hot tub. Close to several wineries, short drive to town, and sits within vineyards. We also loved seeing the hot air balloons in the morning.
We really enjoyed our stay. The property is located off of a dirt road and with the recent heavy rain leaving mud and puddles behind was be a little challenging. The house was clean. We had a few issues noice in the attic maybe crittersâŠ..The fireplace inside and outside were non operational, we brought fire wood but couldnât burn it. Also the outside fire pit we couldnât locate the ignition switch to light I called the property management several times who said the reached out to the owner with no response. A bit frustrating and chilly. Overall we enjoyed ourselves. The property seems new to the management company (Sunny Days) which are located in Texas a little odd for a California property.
First of all they respond very quickly with all questions answered perfectly. That was very helpful in the planning process. The drive ambiance alone was breathtaking. The home was decorated perfectly. Very spacious and accommodating. We loved utilizing the kitchen and we hired our own personal chef whom was recommended by barefoot rentals. His name was Robert and was so professional and created the perfect menu for my 40th birthday dinner. I stayed in the master room. The beds were very comfy cozy. We loved the ambience in the back yard. The scene in the mornings drinking our coffee and watching the giant colorful baloons glide above the house was incredible to see. The yoga she shed was awesome sauce to enjoy some zen time. We loved the spa we used that definitely the whole time. So the only issue we had was the pool wasn't as clean but there are lots of nature surrounding us that possibly could have been why there were duck feathers in it and dead mice but we didn't go in the pool. Not a huge deal just not appealing. But either than that. We all had a fabulous time there and would definitely want to book again with family and let the kids enjoy the ambiance. I felt spoiled and we were able to hire mokeandwine.com and our vbro was close enough for them to pick us up from the property. The property was definitely private enough to feel comfortable hanging out by the pool and enjoying some girlfriends time. This will be the best 40th birthday to remember đ đ„ł thank you for giving me the opportunity to spoil my girls too. We felt like it was a girls retreat that was overdo to come. Xo
We were looking for a place to stay while we shared our favorite wineries in Temecula. Grape Desires was perfect for us. We were able to make our dinners to enjoy together and not have to drive around. The rooms were nice and we are close to all the wineries.
