My husband and I stayed with John and Valarie the first weekend in November for our one year anniversary. We wanted to be located as close as possible to the vineyards at a really nice BnB. We got that and more at Casa Bella! They have an absolutely stunning home! They were only about 1 mile from the first vineyard we visited (Europa Village). We stayed in the King Bed Room and had our own exit to the patio with beautiful antique seating to overlook their gorgeous view of wine country. John made the BEST breakfasts and my husband and I looked forward to it each morning we were there (we stayed 3 nights). John's french toast is amazing and valarie is SO nice it is hard not to feel more than welcome at their house. Every evening we received a menu to choose what we would like for breakfast which my husband loved. We also made new friends with the other couple that stayed there. Coco their Yorkie is the cutest thing and being dog lovers we enjoyed playing with her and watching her tricks! We loved the little details such as the bathrobes, snacks in our room, and beautiful place setting every morning set up for us for breakfast. I hope to go back and visit more vineyards in the future, when we do, we will return to Casa Bella! Much thanks to John and Valarie! We have a WONDERFUL time! **and thanks again for letting us know about that groupon! ;) **

We had a wonderful 2 night stay at Casa Bella Sera. The home is beautiful and comfortable, the breakfast delicious, and the hosts truly welcoming and warm. This felt like staying at a friend's home instead of a "stuffy" BnB. Our only disappointment was not being able to take their super sweet dog Coco home with us... we are not "dog people" but we could not escape the little one's charm and character. We would go back in a heartbeat! Thanks John and Valerie for a terrific stay!

We've now stayed here three times and loved it every time. The location is quiet with a great view, convenient to Old Town and to wine country but off the beaten path. The owners are friendly and make sure we feel completely at home every time.

This was a perfect base camp for our 3-day birthday getaway! Valerie and John have a beautiful roomy house on a quiet cul-de-sac just a couple of miles from the winery roads. We had fun hanging out with them when we were done with our day's excursions. Their little dog Coco is so much fun to play with it helped take our minds off missing our dogs back home. Valerie has many wonderful photographs to look at and John makes a killer breakfast. I had his signature French toast every morning (his secret ingredient is key ;-). Valerie even got me a cake for my birthday and John lent me a hat so my neck wouldn’t get singed in the hot air balloon – essential if you’re very tall!

They only have two guest rooms, so it is very quiet at night. No street noises, and no barking dogs. The rooms are very spacious with a back patio and your own flat screen or you can use their 60” in the living room. You have your own keys to come and go as you please. You have your own bathroom just outside in the hallway with all amenities and a terrific soft water shower.

Our stay there could not have been any better. We felt right at home. The price is also very reasonable compared to other options in the area and you won’t get French toast like that anywhere else. We will gladly stay with Valerie and John again the next time we visit Temecula.
