Hello, and welcome to Sonoma and the Sonoma Wine Valley…

For years we sought a place that would rejuvenate our souls by making us feel far away, while still being close to the activities that we enjoy: our love of wine, food and life in all its forms…

Today we are living that dream and we welcome you into our home: 'Vie du Reve' (living the dream).

Our 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms home is located in the secluded hills of Sonoma, but just 8 minutes from the historic Plaza. It's really ideally suited for 3 couples who enjoy vacationing together... From the minute you walk in the door, the view will draw your eyes to the nature that surrounds the property and the peace and quiet that engulfs you. You’ll immediately feel like you’re in your own private tree house and your workday woes will begin to fade away. You enter the house on the main floor that has the living room, kitchen, dining area, half-bath and “top deck,” which is ideal for morning coffee and evening appetizers. Walk down one floor to the middle level that has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Walk down another floor to the entertainment room on the lower level (great for extended visits when there is more time to enjoy a movie or watch a sporting event).

In addition to the “top deck,' there are decks off the master bedroom, the front and back of the house (four decks total). As the sun moves through the day, you can find sun or shade, whatever fits your wishes… In the summer of 2015 we replaced the lower deck, so please view pictures of the new addition. Remember that nights can get chilly when the sun goes down, so pack that favorite sweater.

While we are minutes from the historic Sonoma Plaza, you won’t feel it or hear it… YOU are now on vacation!!

In our view a good night’s rest is the centerpiece to a pleasurable vacation. Beds are all new and have premium linens. The bedrooms offer quiet sleeping environments…

Mornings are truly special at Vie du Reve. If you are the early bird of your group, start your day on the top deck, enjoying a favorite book or cup of coffee as you overlook the tranquil valley of trees that’s behind the house. Or take a walk in the neighborhood, past the local vineyard just up the hill. As your guests arise, they can join you as you plan the day’s events…

Once you decide to get going, you won’t have to travel far as wineries, restaurants, walking trails, golf courses and more are all close by. Remember that we are hear as your local resource, so please let us know if you'd like a recommendation. You could truly enjoy your entire stay without driving more than 10 minutes, but you’ll want to explore the world-class activities and surroundings that Sonoma has to offer.

The beauty of Vie du Reve is that you, and your guests, can plan the days to match your desires. Relax at home or be active, go out for lunch and dinners or cook at home, Vie du Reve has all the amenities you’ll need (see list of amenities below). If this is a return trip to Sonoma, you’ll probably already have your favorite places. However, if this is your first trip to Sonoma, our Guest book provides suggestions on places to go and where to shop. In advance of your visit, if you'd like a recommendation, just let us know...

Evenings provide a great opportunity to un-wind from the day’s events. Do some reading, take a nap or choose one of the decks and enjoy a glass of wine and some appetizers before dinner. The sun sets off the back decks and one of our favorite times of day is when the sun drops behind the hills across the valley. After the sun sets over the hillside, you’ll still have about 45 minutes of daylight before the sun truly sets. The air is pure; evening and nighttime skies are simply beautiful…

To help you make your decision, Vie du Reve is most ideally suited for 2 or 3 couples. We realize that one house cannot fit everyone’s needs; therefore, we are an adult-only, no pets and a non-smoking household. While we love children, our 3 levels (including a spiral staircase to the entertainment room) would mean constant supervision. Also (and unfortunately) if any of your guests use a wheelchair or have mobility limitations, we want to remind you that our home has 3 levels. Although you’ll have plenty of privacy, you’ll be in a neighborhood with full time residents (who are wonderful) and you are not in a typical tourist area. Please enjoy our home respectfully and responsibly…

We’re glad you are choosing Sonoma Valley and we hope you choose Vie du Reve.

We want your trip to be a great one, so please make sure we answer all of your questions.

    Wonderful extra touches! A nice bottle of wine, snacks, tons of bottled waters, sparkling water, tea, coffee and lots of others! Beautiful deck. Unfortunately our weather was a bit chilly and rainy so did not get to use the decks but would have been amazing on a sunny day! Beds and bedding super comfortable!

    The house was absolutely perfect! We thoroughly enjoyed all the high-end décor, luxurious linens, beautiful furniture, and top-of-the-line appliances. Everything we could possibly need was thoughtfully provided — it truly felt like a home away from home.The host was incredibly responsive and answered all our questions quickly. We were genuinely sad to leave. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a top-quality stay!

    Visiting family and this house was a perfect location for us. The view was spectacular! The amenities were excellent. The kitchen was stocked with sharp knives and usable cookware. We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. All 3 decks were enjoyable and I loved the entertainment/exercise room! I’d definitely stay at this house again.

    We enjoyed our stay at this property which was a great size for our group of 5 and was very comfortable! It’s about 3 miles from the square, so a bit of a drive to get into town but still convenient. The host provided great communication with lots of local recommendations, and the amenities and small thoughts like makeup wipes were a nice touch.l and appreciated! The bathrooms were stocked with plush towels and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked and was great to have an outdoor grill as well. The decks were wonderful and just wish we had more time to spend at the house to enjoy them. All in all, a great stay.

    Thank you for letting us use your beautiful place in Sonoma. We loved the views, succulents, location and decks. There was plenty of space for all 6 of us with comfy beds and linens. You were so thoughtful with supplies and welcome basket. The lavender soap was a favorite! Your communication and detailed email was so helpful. Highly recommend.

    We have stayed at many VRBO‘s over the years. Most places have become an empty house with furniture and items procured from thrift shops. This was absolutely not the case at Jeff’s home. We truly felt like we were staying at a good friends house while they were away. So many special touches to make us feel welcome, including wine and cheese. Every kitchen appliance and tool imaginable was provided. The bathrooms were stocked with shampoo, conditioner, bath wash Q-tips, cotton balls etc. The home was decorated nicely and the furniture was comfortable. There was nothing that we needed that was not already provided in the home. Parking was ample and free. The decks provided lots of variety for morning, coffee and afternoon chats. Jeff was accommodating from start to finish. We needed to make a change in our original reservation and his response time was immediate. He also accommodated a slight change in our check-in time. He provided a list of everything we needed to know about the home and an extensive list of recommendations for restaurants and sights to visit which were very helpful .There were so many amenities provided that I can’t possibly list them all. Everyone in our group thought that this was overall the best VRBO any of us had ever stayed in.

    Vie du Reve was just as pictured and described in the listing and reviews, an exceptional home to stay in Sonoma. Special attention from our hosts including the local knowledge info, the gift basket upon arrival, and the comfort enjoyed each day upon our return from our day trips. We plan to return.

    We had 4 family members visiting for a long weekend to Napa/Sonoma and the house was perfect for what we needed. We loved the welcome basket the hosts left for us and was such an appreciated surprise. Kitchen was awesome. Stocked with fresh coffee beans to grind and make fresh coffee every morning. Anything you could need really. Bedrooms were nice size and beds super comfortable. Bathrooms were great. Great showers and lovely products to use for hair and body. Views were beautiful in the morning to watch the sun come up on the balcony. Easy to get in and out of to venture out for dinners or to head out for the day for some sightseeing and/or wine tasting. Host had great recommendations and was very friendly and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend the house for your next trip to Sonoma/Napa.
