“Warm welcome to a beautiful home !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 19, 2012

We recently had a most enjoyable two night stay with Valerie +and while visiting Temecula/doing a Wine Tour.
They gave us a warm welcome to their beautiful Home which is located a little away from Temecula old town.This is a much more personalised experience compared to staying in a "Hotel Chain",we enjoyed their company equally as much as their Home especially trying to get John to change "to the other side" after watching the VP debate on their TV together !.
Highly recommended.

“Great choice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 9, 2012

Great location, nice neighborhood, centrally located yet away from all the traffic. Went here for a wedding, and felt doubly blessed as we heard not so great things about the hotels in town that were charging almost double! Valerie and John were wonderful hosts. Attentive but allowed us our privacy- we were pretty busy popping in and out, getting ready and running around. Nice room set up with King bed, TV with satellite, plenty of plugs for chargers and a huge closet with full length mirror. Just a couple feet down the hall to our own private bathroom, stocked with anything we may have forgotten at home. We had guests in the other room both nights, but we didn't hear a thing and I'm a light sleeper. Breakfast was great-complete with a nice view, set table and good coffee. Hosts had a great balance about being available if you needed anything and letting us be. A great choice- wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

“Perfect Gem!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 7, 2012

I don't think my girlfriend and I could recommend this place enough, it really was perfect. John and Valerie are gracious and perfect hosts. Everything from the quiet street, beautiful home, breath-taking views and little touches made our stay exactly what we wanted it to be. The Queen bedroom was perfect, w/a large walk-in closet. The bed was amazing, I slept perfectly. In our room was a delicious little gift basket full of snacks, water, and the room came ready with wine glasses and a wine bottle opener just waiting for us. Coming back from dinner our room was turned down, w/fresh baked cookies - even better than any stay at the nicest hotels. Not to mention the amazing breakfast John cooked for us every morning. We are already hoping to come back soon! Much better than any stay at any hotel :) Thank you John & Valerie!! & little Coco :)

Room Tip: Every room in this home is beautiful! No matter what you'll sleep great :)

“Highly Recommend!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 1, 2012

My wife and I stayed one night with John and Valerie during a brief trip to Temecula for wine tasting and dinner and we had a great experience! The house is beautiful and very close to the wineries. I would highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a memorable experience in Temecula. Our breakfast was excellent in the morning and we got to enjoy it on their back patio which is also beautiful.

Michael and Bethany:
Thank you for your review of our Casa Bella Sera Bed and Breakfast in Temecula. We find that the wine tasting brings many vistors to Temecula and we are happy we can offer accomodations which exceeds your expectations. It comes down to what my wife and I expect when we stay away from home. TripAdvisor has been a great source of spreading the word about the service and accomodations we offer at a price below the other luxury hotels minutes from us. Thank you again for your kind words of approval.

“Mid-week Get-away in Temecula, CA”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 17, 2012

From the moment we walked in, we were already thinking and planning our next visit. The location (close to the wineries and not far from Old Town) was perfect. Besides feeling like we were with family, our hosts, John and Valerie were wonderful, accommodating, and gracious. Even Coco, the dog, liked us. We felt like we were at home.
The decor of the home was gorgeous and the surrounding views of the town was beautiful!

Room Tip: Both rooms (King and Queen - I believed so named for the size of bed in the room were nice. The tem...
