First of all this place is not Mexican owned and in fact the owners are British. This somehow detracted from the atmosphere. However the staff both Mexican and French were excellent. The place itself is very nice, but somehow it lacks soul. Perhaps this is to do wth the fact that it is made to look old but is in... More

We stayed here for two nights to celebrate our 44th Anniversary. It is a beautiful property located on a scenic countryside. It is in the heart of the wine country and we enjoyed wine tasting at some nearby wineries and also at the new wine cave at La Villa del Valle, Phil (the owner and winemaker) gave us a wonderful...

I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a hotel so much. Everything here is beautiful and tasteful: the location, the views, the landscaping, the restaurant, the food, the decor and the staff. Alejandro the hotel manager is always there to help. But most specially, Agnes, the restaurant and winery manager, is more than willing to help with anything: information,... More

If you live in Southern California I highly recommend visiting this wine oasis. The house is absolutely amazing. My wife and I have been there 3-4 times and will continue to visit. We have done a romantic weekend just the two of us; celebrating a friends anniversary and booking all 6 rooms to have everything for us; or for a... More

I used to drive from San Diego to Puerto Nuevo all the time. We stopped doing it in about 2004 due to the published violence. My fiancé and I decided to do a trip to Guadalupe Valley to celebrate her special 30th birthday. We started the journey from San Diego planning to have lunch in Puerto Nuevo (a bit of... More

The restaurant at La Villa del Valle was recommended by a local businessman we met in Ensenada a few months ago. We had already been pleasantly surprised at the high quality of wines made in the Guadalupe Valley, but this restaurant just blew us away. Chef Diego Hernandez is an amazing talent, creating wonderful meals with fresh produce from the... More

We were on a 3 day wine tour of the Guadalupe and Santa Tomas valleys. As we approached the property we were entranced by the view of the villa and became more enchanted the longer we stayed. The views of the valley and mountains in the evening were wonderful. Our hosts/owners were charming, informative and educational. We learned about the... More

I recently stayed at La Villa del Valle and cannot believe this wonderful place could get any better than it already was since my last visit. They have built a beautiful restaurant on the grounds as well as a winery. I saw the initial construction and was concerned this new activity would take away from the solitude of the guests... More

... in this art-filled villa. The views from the rooms are stupendous. Dinner was gourmet - produce is grown onthe premises - accompanied by their own wine. Agnes was a wonderful hostess, knowledgeable about local resources like wines and cheeses. A spa is available, offering massages. We did not have time to indulge. We will definitely stop there again soon.
