We cannot guarantee the "clarity" of the water and if that is your primary reason for renting a VR then DO NOT RENT THIS VACATION RENTAL.

Christmas in Temecula
Our family had a great holiday in Temecula. We all loved the location ,views and outside time on the deck The house could use some TLC. Carpet is worn and has some stains. The upstairs kitchen was far from the main living area and there is no dining table. Beds were comfortable and had plenty of linens and pillows. Hot tub is very small . We had no problems while we were there.

Temecula Heavenly Trebolo Home
The location & view were outstanding. The house has great potential but sorely needs updating. The master suite & living room are comfy, upgraded & enjoyable. The rest of the home had serious issue like a broken garbage disposal, a missing remote control for the bedroom TV, an ant infestation that we cleaned up each day, an A/C that never worked properly in the extreme heat of Temecula, an eyesore broken jacuzzi, a refrigerator with no water dispenser or ice maker or ice trays, the foyer tiles were stained, the carpeting was dingy & the stair rails were very wobbly/unsecured. The home states it can sleep 16 persons but they charge $50 per day for each guess over a basic 4 person count which is somewhat deceptive. The hosts were responsive & able to repair the garbage disposal & provide a new remote control for the TV but the A/C issue was never addressed despite daily reminders that the home thermostat remained at a 77 degree level which was quite uncomfortable. We spent little time at the house due to scheduled activities in the area so were able to survive the daily home heat but skipped the last night stay to avoid the discomfort. We provided suggestions & constructive criticism to the owners so they can better service future guests. Hopefully, they will improve their maintenance issues.

The worst experience is n my life
I already left after only 5 hours from our stay and it was a worst experience i had with all issues at the house which is not acceptable at all We couldn't even continue our stay it is been only 5 hrs and then left so i asked for my money back without creating any troubles We even cleaned the house and we already left it better than what it was, The water came out from the fridge from the inside and underneath it My wife is pregnant and was about to fall many times from the water everywhere And the over flow from two toilets on the first floor each time we have to go up so was only one toilet working without door to lock it The outside patio had a dirty lockers and so messy All windows can not be opened so hard to slide and then it falls on us I even discussed with the property manager that we will be having a family gathering and she came in the middle of the day telling me oh you don discuss that you will have people with you and i had to show her our conversation on the app and then she told me (aha ok my bad then), I tried texting and calling her after that for her to send me someone to fix these issues she completely ignored us then we had to leave the house without even continuing half our stay and now I’m asking for my money back. Overall I will never recommend that place for anyone to stay there.

Very Unclean & not what was advertised
We rented this house to celebrate my parents 55th wedding anniversary with the family and it was disgusting. This house was not clean at all and quite frankly a safety hazard. The pots, pans and BBQ were useable, the closets had what looked like mold on the walls, the stair banister was unstable and a great concern with my 75-year-old parents using the stairs, most of windows did not have screens, the sliding doors do not lock, there was trash underneath and in the middle console of the couch, the game room advertised was a joke, there were several light bulbs out throughout the house, I could go on and on. Further, I received a text at 8:30 PM regarding noise complaints as we were inside the living room singing karaoke with my family, the quiet time starts at 10:00 PM so this is laughable. The reason this property received two starts was the view and the fact after complaining we were brought a new set of pots & pans and another used BBQ. Definitely would not book this filthy house again.

Pleasantly surprised
We weren’t sure what we were getting from this place after reading the reviews but we’re honestly pleasantly surprised! The house was clean and pool was perfect. The outdoor kitchen really is an outdoor kitchen but be advised the grill is very spotty and was really frustrating for the person with us who is into grilling. Other than that, besides being a little outdated and a few flies flying around, they have done a nice job at making it comfortable and is definitely a cool place to stay for a wine tasting trip. The price only accounts for four people and they charge for extra people- even minors. Super annoyed by that and the communication or lack thereof with management company. However the ac wasn’t working in one of the rooms when we got in and she said he’d be there by 6 to fix it. And although it was later than expected there was someone who came and once it was fixed it was gloriously cool in that part of the house. All in all it was a great house with beautiful views.

Great Views!
Lovely quant property. Very clean and tidy. A few utensils were a bit dirty but the dishwasher seemed a bit outdated and we all know with dishwashers the dishes and cutlery need some help beforehand. Bedding was soft and nice in the main bedroom and the bed was super comfy. The garden tub was amazing! The main downfall which is partly our fault was that we noticed ants by the kitchen sink on the first day snd we sprayed and thought they were gone but the reason we rented this place was to have a place to stay after our wedding since we aren’t from Temecula and we brought back our wedding cupcakes and forgot to put them in the fridge and in the morning they were covered in ants. These were made professionally and were very expensive with edible embellishments and everything so we were pretty bummed. The pool was very clean snd nice. We noticed the working jucuzzi on the last day that is away from the pool but we didn’t really have time for it anyway. Most beds were comfy but we are 8 adults over 35 and even tho the other 2 rooms had many beds, none of them were big enough for the men. Overall we would definitely stay here again. It was very quiet and the views were spectacular! We probably could have just stayed here and lounged in the pool and taken in the surroundings.

Not what it seems
Unfortunately, this house was not clean at all. The pans in the cabinets had left over egg residue, dishes were not put away, holes in the walls, stair banister was falling apart and dangerous, most windows did not have screens, washer & dryer is rusted, A/C is incredibly outdated and took the entire weekend to cool the house. Further, and the main reason we booked this house, the jacuzzi was duct taped with a tarp over it so we could not use it - the description and photos did NOT inform us of this information prior to booking. Evidently the cleaning crew was fired, which does not excuse the filth. Definitely would not book here again.

worst Vrbo stay ever
I booked this property because of the spa. When we arrived it was broken. A mouse ran through the kitchen while we were cooking. The carbon my oxide alarm went off in the middle of the night due to low batteries. The water, Heater ran out of hot water in the morning. When I called about those broken spa, the management told me just to take a bath with my friends.This was unacceptable. I sent a message to the management saying I was displeased never heard back from them. I would never stay at this place again. And I highly recommend not staying here unless you plan on just trashing the place.

Our Airbnb canceled day of arrival so we where lucky enough to book this place, which made everything workout. Pros: space, pool, surroundings, nice big screen tv, AC, value Cons: broken hot tub, unable to heat pool or turn on pool cleaner until checkout, no blender, certain cooking supply’s, wet rug downstairs from leak, dangerous bannister slats that come loose kids will fall through.

Beautiful location
This house was in a beautiful location, quiet, peaceful. A few issues we encountered are as follows. The website/email info is pretty generic, incorrect. The check-in process is advertised as contact-free due to COVID-19, to sign papers and leave outside for the manager. Not at all like this. We arrived on time, there were 4 people there going in & out, we did not know who we needed to talk to. The manager was nice enough, but not once introduced herself. We had to wait 30-45 minutes past our scheduled check-in time due to a burst pipe/large leak in one of the bedrooms. The owner was there and was kind enough to let us in, and explained that he wouldn’t disturb us during our stay to fix it, so we appreciated that. The manager finally showed up and let us in, showed me how to turn on the t.v., then basically had me sign her papers and left. None of this fits a “contact-free check-in” description. The house itself was nice and spacious, but our first impression is that it was dirty. We were led in through the garage which is advertised as a “game room.” It had a dirty/damaged pool table, old foosball table and a thick layer of dead bugs on the side table. It had not been vacuumed and the rug was full of pine needles, concrete had an old sticky spill. Yuck. I had a few safety concerns also as we have 4 small children and the baseboard between the kitchen and sitting room was snapped in half with a staple poking out. Also the staircase railing had several loose poles in it, even popping right out. The bedrooms/linens/bathrooms were immaculate and very comfortable, but there were stains on some of the couches, old chips on the floor of the balcony sitting area, and an old piece of bread in the toaster! Pool was nice initially, a bit old and pretty sure the cleaning apparatus in it didn’t move once while we were there, it got murky. The hot tub was broken and drained but we didn’t know about that prior to our stay, so it was a bit of a bummer. Kitchen didn’t have a keurig which would have been nice, nor a kettle as advertised. The fan in the bedroom was needing repair and made a very loud noise if turned on. The toilets had to be plunged our first day there. In summary, clean beds/bathrooms, the rest was not. I suggest a guidebook and contact numbers to be kept in the house for help with all the switches, locking doors, pool instructions, etc. Ok house for young party groups, not family. The manager is terribly slow to respond to any kind of contact.

Fun summer pooltime retreat
PROS: Amazing location. 5-10 min drive from the major wineries, and yes walkable from a few smaller estate wineries. Awesome East and West views of countryside and grape fields. Hilltop house with good feeling of privacy. The pool is very nice, water was clean and clear even through the late summer busy season. For our family the pool was the main attraction....the entire reason we booked this property. Bedrooms were clean and comfortable. Living room, bathrooms, and bedrooms have been nicely modernized. CONS: Checked in at 4pm while the cleaners were scrambling to tidy up after a large group that partied hardy. Found some messy stuff and broken glass outside. The property manager took care of it quickly. If there's one area of the house that really needs some help it's the kitchen. It hasn't yet been modernized to fit in with the nicer areas of the house. Cook ware is lacking or just in poor shape. Outdoor grill works just fine for a few burgers, but has a lot of crud built up so there are hot and cold spots. One major problem we had was the pool pump was temperamental on day 1 and just died on day 2. The property manager and owner were responsive, but we had to live without the pump on days 3-4. The pool was still pleasant and swimable for our stay, and we were told the pump would be replaced the day we checked out. I can only imagine someone else checking would feel very uncomfortable to find a stagnent pool and no idea how long it's been that way. Overall, this property decently suited our purpose for a family getway with a private pool. We really enjoyed our stay. However, this property is advertised and priced to attract events like large parties and wedding rehearsal dinners, and I don't feel it lives up to the high end expectations people would have for those occasions. The space/location truly is excellent, but your event planner/decorator/caterer would need to really take charge, particularly because you may find the house in rough shape and the kitchen just isn't up to the task of supporting a fancy event.

2/10 Terrible

Nice home but too many issues.
During our stay the jacuzzi was not working, was told it would be fixed- it was not, the pool was not heated though it was listed as so, the oven was broken, empty propane in the firepit outside and the bbq wouldn't light, they never came back to fix it. Other than all that it's a nice pool and house. We were never compensated for any of this either, I was told "these things happen" by the property manager.. very dissappointing, would not recommend.
