Custom Winemaker's home - WALKING distance to 9 wineries! This is the place.

(Sonoma County TOT Certificate # 770N). Please inquire about using any of our PROMO CODES prior to booking by choosing the option to "ask a question" prior to booking.

Hacienda Sonoma is one of the few vacation rental properties within walking distance to so many wineries! Custom built in 2008 -- professionally designed and beautifully decorated, every detail has been thoughtfully considered with wonderful weekends in mind. Entertaining is easy here, and the location is perfect -- walk to nine wineries (or drive to over 50 wineries within 10 miles), walk to a nice dinner or our local market, and no one has to be the 'D.D.' on vacation. If you're a 'foodie,' this house was designed for you! Every possible amenity is available for entertaining in style, including a wood-fired pizza oven, 2 dishwashers, extra-large oven, KitchenAid stand mixer, and beautiful serving pieces.

Stay in luxurious comfort with pillow-top mattresses, spacious travertine bathrooms with lots of outlets and elbow space, two fireplaces, a bocce court, a pool table and bar, large flat-screen TV, and whole-house sound system. Our gardens are filled with flowers (plus a lavender field behind the house), a zinfandel vineyard, and herb garden. Al Fresco living / dining / and cooking areas are lit by chandeliers.

A thousand activities close by! Sonoma Valley is full of fun things to do. Whether you're into golf or skydiving, hiking or wine pairings, there's something fun for you in our area.

Girls' weekends are fun at Hacienda Sonoma, too! We can arrange for a private chef and/or massage therapists on site. Wonderful spas abound in Sonoma Valley. The best part about our location in Wine Country? No one has to be the "D.D." There's more than a full weekend of wine-tasting within a 5-block radius of our property. If you'd like to sample some of the more than 50 wineries within a 10-mile radius, let us recommend a great limo service to take you wine-tasting in style!

It's a foodie/wine-lover's paradise: Sonoma Valley has been rated as one of the top destinations in the world for food and wine, and Hacienda Sonoma was designed to be the perfect environment for enjoying them. Our kitchen is huge and extremely well equipped. When have you rented a vacation home that came with an Italian wood-fired pizza oven, a KitchenAid stand mixer, two dishwashers, two coffee pots, built-in grill, electric wine bottle opener, extra-large professional oven, and matching place settings for 20? We love to cook and entertain, and we love to do it in Wine Country style. Visit the local farmers' markets and be inspired, or, hire our chef to come and cook for a truly memorable occasion.

Fun is everywhere at Hacienda Sonoma! Our bocce court, pool table, whole-house sound system, plasma T.V., upstairs bar, Blu-Ray DVD player, DVR, DirecTV Satellite system, VCR, puzzles, board games, WiFi, and even the redwood play structure in the back yard, means that fun is had by everyone in the group.

If you are staying during the week, we can offer shorter minimum stays. Please choose the "ask owner question" option prior to booking.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a fenced private yard. Housekeeping is available on request.

Home away from home

We absolutely loved our stay in Kenwood. We enjoyed all the nearby wineries, and also loved being located between Sonoma and Santa Rosa (and closer to Guerneville, Healdsburg, and Bodega Bay). We hiked nearly every day as we had a variety of choices nearby. The house had everything we wanted or needed, and our communication with the owner was always friendly, quick, and easy. One of our favorite places we've stayed!

We had a wonderful stay at Hacienda Sonoma. Bridget was on top of the problem we had initially with the internet which was solved immediately. The place is quite spacious with many areas to gather or to bask in solitude of the garden/outdoor area. I had the luscious figs every morning for breakfast and we made salads and dishes with the squash and herbs. The wineries and restaurants, along with a wonderful couple of small markets within walking distance was a definite plus. Highly recommend.
