7 Bedroom House in Glen Ellen

Winner of 2024 VRBO Vacation Rental Of The Year! Acres of tranquil privacy with a large vineyard of world class Cabernet Sauvignon.
Italian Riviera Villa in the heart of the California wine country. Perched atop its own small mountain, the magnificent Villa Montebella commands spectacular wine country views of two majestic valleys and you can even see the San Francisco Bay from the top of the hill. The long private drive winds upward through a canopy of live oaks until the stunning Villa bursts into view surrounded first by a necklace of ten acres of terraced world class Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards then manicured lawns, exotic plants and beautiful gardens, highlighted by the sights and sounds of dozens of soaring palms gently swaying with the breeze. The only thing missing from this Italian inspired Villa is the Mediterranean Sea!
The secluded property is surrounded by hundreds of acres of oaks and madrone trees with views of numerous vineyards in all directions. The perfect family compound or couples retreat. Enjoy your privacy in this oasis of tranquility where not even a single car can be heard in the distance and yet the entrance is just a mile away from world class dining and wineries. The unparalleled location is just the beginning. The estate features a massive seven thousand square foot wine cave filled with exotic art and complete with a game room with championship shuffleboard table, ping pong, air hockey and foosball.

There is a formal dining room, library and media room, a large master suite with an incredible tiled shower room with four shower heads fit for a sultan and two other bedrooms with fantastic views. The enormous kitchen features dual Viking ranges, three sinks, dual dishwashers, large Sub-Zero refrigerator and industrial sized outdoor gas grill. There is abundant seating around a central island plus two window benches and enough production capability to operate a fairly large restaurant. Perfect for gourmet cooks in your group or simply pick from our list of renowned local chefs on call to come and prepare a delectable meal on site*. The main house also features a spa facility with huge outdoor ten person sunken hot tub, steam and dry sauna rooms, lounge area where you can enjoy a massage, body treatment or any selection from our full spa menu*.

Thomas H. Apr 23, 2025 08:04:35 AM
Summary: Everything was great. The grounds and views are spectacular. The house is very comfortable and could benefit from some more comfortable outside seating on the balconies facing the valley. This was perfect for our large and diverse group.
tom e. Apr 1, 2025 07:07:10 PM
Summary: Everything about the house was amazing. The host was awesome, wine cave, media room private suites and grounds were next level. Not enough superlatives can describe our experience at the villa! If you require transportation in the area we highly recommend Matt at greybeard tours
Matt S. Mar 13, 2025 03:52:24 AM
Summary: Smooth check-in process. Close to plenty of vineyards. Very friendly staff.

Summary: Villa Montebella is a wonderful place for a large group. Our families stayed at the Villa over the Thanksgiving Holiday week to celebrate our Daughter’s Napa Wedding. The pictures are accurate, but do not do the property justice. The place is Stunning! There are many comfortable and secluded bedrooms and facilities. The wine cave was amazing and we hired Chef Adair for a special rehearsal dinner there. We have an active group and took advantage of the many amenities. The media room was perfect for Thanksgiving Day Football. The management team was great to work with and answered all our questions promptly. We highly recommend the Villa and will definitely be back!

Summary: This property was amazing from top to bottom and had everything you could ask for. Gym, tennis court, bocci ball court, sauna, steam, movie room oh and let’s not forget your own wine cave! We had a chef come one night and we did dinner in the cave and it was amazing! I would recommend this property to anybody, it reminded me of sitting in Tuscany with the view we had!
Reinie R. Nov 13, 2024 05:59:23 AM
Summary: The Villa is beautiful! The pictures are accurate and the view is amazing! The location is great for taking excursions to the wineries. We stayed for a week with our four grown children and their spouses to celebrate our 50th anniversary. There was plenty of room and privacy for everyone. There are so many amenities that we couldn’t even use them all. We didn’t use the theater room, tennis court and pool (it wasn’t heated this time of year). We had our anniversary dinner in the wine cave which was prepared by Chef Adair (highly recommend). We spent every morning in the huge kitchen and prepared several meals. The Glen Ellen Market is a great place to shop for everything you need. We had a Vintage Murder Mystery Dinner with each couple making a course for dinner. The only issue with the property is all of the stairs and uneven surfaces if anyone has mobility problems. My husband had some difficulty but he was a trooper and enjoyed his time here. He especially liked sitting in the swing on the terrace overlooking the property. I highly recommend the Villa!

Summary: Our family stayed there to celebrate my 70th birthday. There were 10 of us. When you first see Villa Montebella, you feel like you just arrived at a movie set. Everything about it is beautiful. The main house and villas were adequately stocked, clean, and comfortable. The pool and hot tub were perfect. Our adult children loved the many outside activities on the property. I felt like a spoiled queen all week. The wine cave was fun to hire a private chef (Chef Adair) and we had my birthday dinner there. Randy was a delight to work with and answered all our questions beforehand. Would highly recommend.
Kathleen H. Aug 5, 2024 04:27:58 AM
Summary: We had a wonderful stay. The property is gorgeous and the house was great for a group with places for everyone to be together or separate when needed. We only have a few recommendations. First, the driveway is quite steep and curvy. A caution on that especially if you drive a larger vehicle as we did. We never could get the hot tub to heat up, even after contacting the host. Instructions for that were not in the guest book. Even though the host walked us through it, having it written down would have helped. Otherwise you couldn’t have a finer place. Be prepared for steps but that became art of our fitness plan!
Janet P. Aug 3, 2024 08:01:43 PM
Summary: Plenty of room for 5 adult couples to each have their own space. Kitchen is well stocked and managers were very responsive to our needs. There are lots of stairs, not a problem for us but would be for mobility impaired. When we arrived the pool and hot tub were not very clean—pool was cleaned the following morning but lots of algae in the hot tub made it uninviting. Overall a great stay for my husband’s 50th—enjoyed a catered dinner in the cave and watching the Olympic ceremonies in the theater!

Summary: Words do not do Villa Mountebella justice. Perched high atop the vineyards on 25 acres, the house is exquisite. The property is very distenational, meaning there are multiple places to sit and relax and solitude and plenty of places to gather as a group. The bedrooms are spacious. The grounds are immaculate. We will definitely be back. Randy is an excellent communicator!
