Numerous windows and doors look out to the backyard; gracious archways lead to a hallway on one side and the dining room on the other. The mahogany dining set seats 12 guests.

The gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight, complete with stainless appliances that include a six burner Dacor professional gas stove, a griddle and two ovens. Through the breakfast nook and past the quaint side entrance is the master suite and the other downstairs bedroom.

Off the master bedroom is the master bath, featuring a double vanity and a dual-head walk-in shower.

comfortably fit our family

Reviewed on 2024-12-26 by Rosie

The home was very large and lovely. It comfortably fit our family of 12 for our Christmas get away vacation. The hot tub was a huge highlight for everyone. Some disappointments were that the house definitely needed some repairs despite the fact that we were told there was an inspection. The large oven’s sensor was broken, and the smaller oven’s glass window shattered when we turned the oven on. We were looking forward to a large well stocked kitchen, and due to the broken ovens it made it difficult to do all the Christmas cooking we had planned. The host did send a handyman over but there was very little they could do to fix it. Despite this, we did have a lovely time, and if the oven situation is fixed, we would stay there again. Note to future guests: the road up to the house is on a VERY steep and windy hill. This surprised us, so please note. -via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Rosie, Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re so glad to hear the home was a comfortable fit for your family and that the hot tub was a highlight during your Christmas getaway. We’re truly sorry about the issue with the ovens. The smaller oven window was unfortunately damaged just before your arrival, and the larger oven’s sensor failed at the worst possible time. We completely understand how disappointing that must have been, especially with holiday cooking plans. Since your stay, the oven/range has been replaced. We appreciated your understanding and hope to host you again in the future!

If you love to cook (as we do) the house was very well appointed with a lot of kitchen utensils, serving items, electronics, etc. The back yard was beautiful and peaceful with an inviting jacuzzi, comfortable lounge chairs, and gorgeous giant trees. During the time of our stay there were a few maintenance issues. When the large stove has issues at Thanksgiving (the indicator would not get above 325) it causes some stress. We were able to use the small stove for a lot of the cooking but large pork racks just don’t fit in the small oven. A door to the outside would not lock, The upstairs toilet needed a lot of time between flushing to use again, and the washing machine needed cleaning. These are just maintenance issues though and will hopefully be addressed. The drive to the house is very narrow and windy and best done in daylight. All in all, the house held our group comfortably (10 of us) and was a great location to base from -via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Christine, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful backyard, the hot tub, and the well-equipped kitchen—especially during a holiday stay! We’re sorry to hear about the maintenance issues you experienced and truly appreciate you bringing them to our attention. Since your visit, the oven has been replaced, and we’ve addressed the other concerns with our team to help ensure a smoother experience moving forward. Villa Tranquila is located at the top of a hill on a quiet one-lane rural road, and while some guests have no trouble, we understand it can feel challenging at times. It’s something we note in the listing, and we always recommend arriving in daylight when possible. Thanks again for your thoughtful review. We’d love the chance to impress you in the future!

Clean, comfortable, lots of towels, comfy beds, decently appointed kitchen. Our only constructive feedback is regarding the hot tub. We really wanted to use it but the chemicals were not right, the water was green and after the first day the water was no longer heating.-via VRBO

Manager's Response

Hello Tanya, We are sorry to hear you had issues with the hot tub during your stay. The water is clean, it just appears very green due to the interaction the Bromine has with the minerals from the well water onsite. The spa service person has assured us on many occasions it is balanced and sanitary. We can always be reached for any questions or concerns during your stay. We are glad you enjoyed the home otherwise and thank you for your feedback!

Super helpful and quick communicators. The house was lovely, perfectly sized and very clean. Easy instructions for check out. Zero complaints and would absolutely stay here again! My only suggestion for others driving in from SF, when arriving in Guerneville and about to pull into the neighborhood, do NOT take Morningside Drive. Go a little further down and take the back way in via Armstrong Woods. Morningside Dr has a terribly scary and steep drop, and a very skinny road, as you are circling up the hill to get to the house, with no guardrail, making it especially difficult to drive up in a large SUV. Besides that, it was fantastic. Such a wonderful experience! thank you so much!-via Airbnb

Hello Amanda, Thank you for the kind words!! Thank you for staying with us and being such terrific guests! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you all again :) Also she's right Morningside drive is VERY narrow and a smaller car would be ok.

Perfect size for our group of 10!

Had a great time! The house was beautiful. Kids had fun in the backyard. There is a bit of an uphill drive to reach there, felt like an adventure, we really enjoyed it. Host’s communication was on point. They were proactive in informing some maintenance issues with the house which we appreciated. Overall it was an amazing experience. We highly recommend this place.-via Airbnb

This is our second time staying in this gorgeous home. The first time was for a ladies weekend and this visit was with our small children. It worked for both situations. We particularly liked the kitchen, and spacious deck with hot tub. Though we didn’t need to contact them during our stay, the management company is very responsive.-Via Airbnb

We had an excellent stay at Villa Tranquila for a friend’s Bachelorette Party! The grounds were absolutely gorgeous and provided close access to many nearby local attractions. Our group of 12 fit very comfortable in this spacious house and the beds were all very comfortable. Plenty of great space in the kitchen and common areas for hanging out all together, and of course, the yard and hot tub were a wonderful hit. Thank you for the amazing stay! - via AirBnB

The Versailles of Guerneville

My husband and I rented Villa Tranquila for my 60th Birthday weekend. We wanted a place to spend quality time with our chosen family, gathering over coffee in the morning and dining together in the evening, while allowing everyone to do their own thing during the day (the R3 Pool, the Kortum Trail at Sonoma Coast State Beach, historic Fort Ross, etc.). Villa Tranquila did not disappoint. The 8 of us had ample room in the large, historical house and the multiple “rooms” in the garden to be together or spend time in solitude as we pleased. One of my fiends dubbed it the “Versailles of Guerneville.” It was so quiet. We are all from the city and we all commented on how well we slept in the quiet, peaceful neighborhood which is yet so close to downtown Guerneville. Most importantly, the roomy gourmet kitchen and large dining rooms (inside and out) allowed us to dine in the evenings and celebrate together, even accommodating a few of our friends that live in Guerneville. We had considered renting a villa in Spain or Portugal or Mexico for my 60th. But due to COVID we decided to stay close. Sometimes fate hands you the right choice. It was perfect! Close enough to SF for all to be able to attend. And world class beautiful all the same. I'm so happy we chose Villa Tranquila.

Villa Tranquila was a beautiful way to spend a weekend outside of the city. Even though it wasn't the warmest day, we were able to enjoy all the outside activities. The house is so peaceful, tucked away on the top of the hill above Guerneville, and an easy walk into town with lots of bars and restaurants to enjoy. The house was perfectly stocked with cooking materials and a huge kitchen big enough to make family meals for all the guests. The hot tub was a perfect way to end the day. I will absolutely be booking this spot in the future!

This property was everything we expected and more. Highly maintained even in the off season months. The property itself is nestled in a little community of homes a little up the hill. However, when you enter the gates, once you shut them, you feel as if you are almost totally secluded from seeing any of your neighbors (great for privacy if that's what you enjoy). The open landscaped grounds are a highlight of this home as well. You can sit quietly and read, meditate in both the front and back yard or have a BBQ, sit in the hot tub and picnic in the back yard. The house was absolutely wonderful. It is not a modern build and that's what I love about it. So many architectural aspects ranging from stained glass to murals on the ceiling. Old tile in the bathroom. There is however, a very updated kitchen and the most wonderful stove to cook lots of great family meals on as we did. Comfortable seating for at least 10 and more. There was 9 of us in the group and we had more than ample room. Not hard to find privacy or go off to another room if you want a moment away from group activities. We were all so very impressed with the lovely culture in this house. As a reference, it is not an "old" house but an "old style" house. This house has absolutely all the updated amenities you could hope for. With great Wifi, ample linens, modern working bathrooms, beds, etc. The pictures of this home are true to life and do not disappoint. A few regulars: All the right cooking utensils you could need and even some we didn't but made our lives easier because they were there. Plenty of storage room for food, drink and large refrigerator. Loved that there was a smaller half bathroom for use aside from the large one right next to it. Great parking for several vehicles. comfortable beds, board games and magazines/books, etc. We will definitely be back to this one for sure!

This was an amazing place to stay for a get away weekend with some old college friends. The house could not have been more perfect. A close proximity to the beach as well as to many wineries, we spent a couple of days exploring each. The home had a gorgeous kitchen, which I truly enjoyed cooking in. We also were within walking distance to the town, and walked to coffee one morning, as well as a fun restaurant one evening. The hot tub was very relaxing after a day at the wineries. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we slept so well each evening. The house feels like it is very secluded, as it is surrounded by beautiful gardens and trees. This property truly fits its name of Villaa Tranquila. It was a lovely experience and I can't wait to return!

We stayed with our daughters and their families for a long weekend. We had our own spaces and plenty of room. The kitchen was well-equipped and had plenty of workspace. We spent much of our time outdoors in the many delightful spots around the yard -picnic tables, hot tub, rocking chairs, porch swing, fire ring... We loved it and would definitely stay here again!Source: VRBOManager Response:We're so glad you enjoyed all the great areas of the yard and house! For future guests, we've never seen the porch swing these guests referred to, but they might have meant all the lounge chairs on the back deck. They are certainly comfy!

Very comfortably slept 8 of us, could have probably done 9-10. Kitchen was great for cooking — large and well stocked. We walked downtown for dinner (10-min down hill to Sea Metal Oyster), and drove an easy 2-miles to Armstrong State Park for hiking. Also 20-min to some great wine tasting.

Great house. Very comfortable and roomy. Their were 8 of us and we had plenty of space. Only a few minor issues:1. Low water pressure.2. Hot tub would not heat above “bath water” temperature - about 95 degrees.3. A couple of the burners on the stove would not light.4. Towels smelled musty. However, after re-washing they smelled good. -Thank you so much for staying with us, and for your feedback! =) The hot tub should heat to 102 - we'll have the tech check on that, and we'll take a look at the other items you mentioned as well. Much appreciated!-The Team at Russian River Vacation Homes

The property and the location, at the top of a windy hill, was serene. It was the perfect getaway for both my and my wife's family to enjoy all of what Russian River has to offer. It was a great place to start and end the day with easy access to a host of great activities--the Pacific Coast, Redwood Hiking Trails, Headlsburg, Calistoga, etc. We found ourselves each night either on the patio or around the dinner table talking late into the evenings. The venue simply fostered a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. As we were also in town for the Ironman, it was also located just close enough but also far enough away to escape the craziness that always takes over a host city. We were easily able to get back and forth to support a member of the family who was participating. All in all, we could not have asked for a better experience and our expectations were exceeded with Vila Tranquila

Overall this property was lovely, with a large, fully stocked kitchen, a dining room big enough to seat our entire group, and a great big living room. We did have a problem with an ant invasion due in large part to the recent flooding, but that is no ones fault. My main issues were lack of supplies. Not enough towels for a full house of people that wanted to use the hot tub and take showers (or even paper towels to last through the weekend). Or places to hang wet towels when all the room are full. Hooks would be very helpful! It was very clean though, and the kitchen was stocked with tons of spices!

Villa Tranquila was the perfect rental for a perfect week. The group included 5 adults. Everyone was satisfied with the sleeping and living arrangements. The only downfall was the 2.5 bathrooms - one more full bath would have been great. The kitchen and open breakfast area was great for talking while cooking. Because of the weather we were not able to fully enjoy the outdoor seating area however it looked beautiful. The house is outside of the more familiar wine country towns however the town of Guerneville is cute and there are great restaurants and vineyards within 20 mins.
