Property details

The ultimate Sonoma countryside retreat is waiting at Sonoma Sunshine. This luxury group escape effortlessly blends incredible views, gorgeous design, a top-notch outdoor space and pool, and a great location to give you a one-of-a-kind wine-country experience. Detail is key at Sonoma Sunshine, and you’ll find thoughtful touches and curated decor throughout the entire home. From a piano in the living room to a charming inner courtyard with a fountain, there are endless possibilities to create meaningful memories or steal away a romantic moment. Aspiring chefs will love the spacious kitchen, fully equipped with everything you need and boasting tons of counter space, barstool seating, and a gas range. Cozy up by the fireplace in the main living room, or head to the secondary living space for panoramic views and a movie night on the flatscreen TV. Outside, a picturesque view of the surrounding countryside serves as a backdrop as you lounge poolside, or enjoy the sunshine at one of the multiple lounge areas on the spacious patio. Start your morning in the inner courtyard with the sound of the fountain, and end it by watching the sun set over Sonoma. The home is nestled next to a vineyard, giving you a true wine-country feel. Four bedrooms offer everyone plenty of space to spread out, with the primary ensuite featuring a luxurious soaking tub.

If you are looking for the most memorable, spectacular view in all of Sonoma Valley, this is it. The common areas are comfortable for everyone to have space and the generous size of the pool is better than most hotels and likely all other rental properties. Some of the outdoor furniture is worn, but also realistically requires a lot of care. Some items needed repair when we arrived and management sent help right away. Bedrooms and bathrooms need updating, linens should be replaced due to wear, but with the view, you may not be inside much.

Amazing house in very private location. Huge rooms and extensive grounds. Some of the appliances felt a bit dated, and there were a few quirks to get things working.
