This review is specifically for the Villa Inn and Spa. We stayed overnight in the Rimini room which…read morewe thought was tastefully decorated and quite comfortable. We were especially impressed with the nice bathroom with large shower and separate tub. Check-in was easy; like an Airbnb a simple code for room entry was provided and payment was made online. The property feels secluded and private and is very well maintained. There were only 4 or 5 rooms, I think, at this property. Each room has its own designated parking space. Like an Airbnb, bring your own amenities; other than soap and towels, nothing else was provided in the bathroom. There is a pool and hot tub but I never even saw either as they were on the back side of the complex and we pretty much just wanted to chill in the room. We planned a stay here just to relax and rediscover what a nap is. The huge downside for us was that the walls here are paper thin. The noise from the room next to us kept us from being able to relax or sleep and even woke us up the following morning. Conversations, the television, and the lovely sounds of snoring could be plainly heard by us. The most irritating noises from next door were the sounds of a babbling toddler who enjoyed running around the room; we were mistaken to think this is an adult-only type of villa. While we loved the room the noise didn't conform with our want of a relaxing vacation space.

First off, let me start by saying that Greg and Michelle are awesome and staying at the Coral Tree…read moreHouse was truly an amazing experience! Everything from their front gate entrance, to the walkways around the property, to the pool and jacuzzi, everything is so nice. I highly recommend this stay for anyone visiting! The rooms are tiny houses built by Greg himself. He has put all his life experience in design and construction into these homes and they are definitely something to see for yourselves. We stayed at his latest build, The Beach House, which was beautiful! The tiny house is fitted with everything one might need to take a small vacation; two beds, two floors, HDTV with Netflix, bathroom, and full kitchen. There are plenty of little areas between areas that Greg has put in there to allow for storage while still having the little homes feel uncluttered and open-floored. The pool area is so nice! There's a very nice pool lined with a great selection of plants, palm trees, and a small waterfall feature. There's a jacuzzi that you can jump into and enjoy. There is a couple small tables where you might want to sit and eat something, a chimney with firewood already provided by Greg and Michelle, and a BBQ if you want to chuck some steaks on there and grill. All in all, Greg and Michelle have an amazing business that is truly an experience. Thank you guys for the hospitality, we'll definitely be back!

My husband and I decided to have a 4 day get-w-way at the last minute and luckily for us Michelle,…read morethe owner, called me with a cancellation after seeing my inquiry. We never had stayed at a B&B before and what sold us was that we would have our own little house. Greg, her husband, is a retired contractor and built these himself. What a beautiful job he has done. So quiet, which is what we needed. The Pool and Spa area are out of a Hawaiian Oasis. Coral Trees are much like the Banyan Trees there. Now there is the 5 star breakfast Michelle makes! Better and healthier than most restaurants. We feel we have made new friends in this lovely couple. Can't wait to return.

Janice and Roger were such fabulous host to us for a very enchanting evening at the hotel Temecula…read more Located in old town. If you want a little piece of history that you honestly cannot find anywhere else in town. This is the hotel for you. We had a gorgeous view of the Wisteria patio right outside the window that was planted in 1891 as was the hotel. There's a reason why they call the hotel Temecula" the grand lady" she really is Our day was perfect- The rooms are appointed beautifully, very clean, a gorgeous gift upon arrival with fluffy, warm robes and slippers We were lucky to have the Bath all to ourselves. The showers are hot, and the toiletries were provided such a wonderful addition to our stay. Continental breakfast in the morning was perfect in their parlor room. The candles were lit. The coffee was good. The fruit was delicious. And a little bit of" grand lady" information from Janice as we were leaving. Whether you're there for a night or with a group of friends or having an event in their back spacious patio. Please don't miss your opportunity to visit the Hotel Temecula. " the grand lady will treat you right." There is parking on the premise Give yourself plenty of exploration time while you are there. It is also connected to the big nose winery.

We were able to have 3 hair and makeup stations in the well lite bathroom of the master bedroom. There was plenty of room for the bridal party of 7 to chit chat with each other while we were providing our services to them. I would recommend any wedding client to host their wedding here.

Que Syrah is now my go-to place to stay when in Temecula; or anywhere within a 30-mile radius, for…read morethat matter. When I look for places to stay, I look for location and a little luxury (that's why they call it vacation, right!?). Que Syrah is positioned on a hill that is surrounded on all sides by vineyards and wineries. You couldn't be closer unless you stayed at an actual winery; but, most of the wineries offering accommodations in Temecula are over-touristy, under-charming and over-priced. I know, I've stayed there. This multi-suite mansion has stunning views from every balcony and patio. It's just the right size for a small destination wedding and could even be used for just the wedding party with more guests at other area hotels. The beds are Tempur-Pedic foam style and are a dream to sleep on. The entire building, rooms included, are decorated with bold, modern colors and furniture which gives the place a homey feel that you can't get at other run-of-the-mill hotels and resorts that opt for cookie cutter spaces and neutral tone accouterments. There's a large hot tub out back, a huge, open kitchen and dining room (perfect for starting out the day), upstairs and downstairs communal lounge areas and even a bar. There were pastries, fruit, Keurig coffee (with Irish cream liquor!), and juice available for free every morning. There's an option for a bottle of wine in your room for an upcharge that was reasonable (and maybe even cheaper than retail for the bottle we got). Every single part of our experience was flawless and comfortable and allowed my guest and I to focus on nothing else, but each other. The owners, Mike and David, are not only accommodating, but pleasant, friendly and endearing. They even provide a cell phone number for any issues that might pop up. Staying here is basically like staying at your (wealthy) friend's house who is EXTREMELY eager to please and has a great sense of style. We loved every second and know you will, too.

Carter Estate Winery and Resort is an upscale resort and winery in Temecula. It sits on 100+ acres…read moreof vineyards and has bungalow suites on the property. One of the biggest appeals is its peace, quiet, and the open back patio that overlooks acres and acres of vineyards. The room itself was spacious with a huge king-sized bed. The bathroom was also big with both a tub and shower. Other amenities included a pool, a restaurant on-site, and complimentary shuttles to other wineries in the area. They also offer hot air balloon and spa packages. The only thing was that the fridge was not that cold so our water and food weren't very cold overnight. The tasting room is on-site closer to the front of the property and when staying at the resort you get $5 off their wine tasting ($30 for 5). We came here after we checked out of our room and our favorite was the cuvée prestige. This place is very peaceful and secluded which makes for the perfect weekend getaway. It's pricey but it's relaxing with beautiful vineyard views.

The tasting room was fairly empty, but the staff compensated for the lack of noise by blasting popular music to the point you thought you should dance. Not my vibe.

The owner, Marino, is a charming guy who is happy to give you a tour, and he's readily available as needed. The house has at least 5 bedrooms, but there is also space to set out an extra bed or two. It's huge. The back yard is a lot of fun - pool, jacuzzi, golf putting green, hammocks, and fire pits. There are some lovely views of vineyards and mountains. We ate breakfast out there and loved it. There's a full kitchen, and there's light gym equipment in the garage. It's far better than a hotel. I'd recommend this to anyone going to tour wineries for the weekend and looking for a fabulous place to stay.

Overall, I loved getting married at the Temecula Creek Inn. We got married at the Stone House. It's…read moreabsolutely beautiful, the food and drinks were fantastic, and I wouldn't make a different decision about the venue. Some highlights: - The Stone House as a venue is beautiful. There was plenty of space for 150 people, and it felt like the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner were all slightly separated despite being in the same spot. We appreciated the convenience of staying in the same location while also having the experience of moving guests around. - The Stone House is not accessible by foot or private vehicle. It was incredibly private, and we were able to control when guests arrived. No one was able to get there super early, which helped with the schedule. The shuttling was also very easy. - We loved creating our signature cocktails with the mixologist Eric. He's super knowledgeable and it was so much fun. We came up with 3 perfect cocktails. - The food was great, and I never like wedding food. It was hot! The tasting was also really fun, we liked meeting vendors and the other couples getting married there. - The Creekside House was a huge plus. We used it to get ready. I had 9 bridesmaids, 2 groomswomen and 3 mothers all getting ready there. It never felt crowded. We also did our Sunday farewell brunch there. There was plenty of parking and lots of space inside and outside. We had music on while we got ready and a football game Sunday. We also had a couple bridesmaids and a few guests stay there, which was great. - I loved Devon. She was super friendly, really great at explaining all sorts of information when I first viewed the venue, and overall very helpful. We had a small hiccup with a suite for the getting ready space. She called me, we talked it out and she came up with the idea for the Creekside House, which was better than the suite anyway. - Every in-person interaction I had with any staff member was always positive. Checking in was easy and we were able to get into the house early. Everyone was always kind and attentive. - The property is beautiful and we used a lot of it. We did our rehearsal on the oasis lawn, which was a good size. We did our welcome reception on the patio beneath the Corkfire grill (including glow ball which was so fun), took photos at the Meadows and a few guests golfed. It was great as an all-in-one venue. - Our bridal suite was beautiful, we really loved it. There was a bottle of champagne, a cookie and a cute little note when we arrived. They gifted us a very soft blanket. Some Challenges: - There was a lot of nickel and diming. We needed an extra microphone for our ceremony vocalist. That was an additional charge ($130). We needed an extra cord, that was a charge. etc. I get that those things are usually rented for a fee. We paid around $50,000. You'd think they could just let us use the mic. - I don't feel like the amount everything would cost was accurately explained prior to us signing. Maybe that's on me and my understanding, which is why I didn't choose 4 stars. My advice would just be to really try to get clarity about what it's all going to cost. - It was pretty cold that night. To be clear, this is not the venue's fault, just something to consider. The ground also gets very slick and would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. Overall, we are so happy we got married at TCI. We can't wait to visit in the future and remember our beautiful wedding.
