An Italian Villa in the heart of Napa Valley!

Villa RayEl was inspired by the farmhouses and small villas of Italy.

Located midway between downtown Napa and Yountville, this property sits on 2 acres providing great privacy. It sits next to a year-round creek with a view of a vineyard and nightly sunsets. It has a pool and an attached hot tub.

Located 5 minutes to Highway 29, 8 minutes to downtown Napa and 8 minutes to Yountville. It is convenient to great wineries, restaurants and shopping. Alston Park, one of Napa's best is 4 minutes by car where you can hike or jog.

Take an afternoon swim in the 40 foot private pool, relax in the hot tub under the stars, create great food in the fully equipped kitchen, or lounge on the terrace overlooking the creek and vineyard with a good book.

A Perfect Four Days

We had an absolutely fabulous time staying at Villa RayEl! The house is truly amazing, spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed for our family! The highlight was definitely the pool, which was amazing. We were in town for a wedding at Stanly Ranch, and the location of the villa was ideal, making it easy to attend the festivities while also enjoying some downtime. We loved everything about this house and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway in Napa!

House was as advertised, great location, very charming, and comfortable for our group of 6 adults. Pool and hot tub were highlights as well as the fully stocked kitchen, Two outdoor dinning areas were used each night for dinner! We recommend this property!

Convenient Hideaway

A very well kept home conveniently located just minutes away from everything Napa. Located on the outskirts of a central neighborhood that provided immediate access to hwy 29, yet surprisingly secluded from the neighborhood with a stream and views of a vineyard along the entire back side of the property. The villa home is very spacious, with a very clean and comfy presentation. The fireplace and jacuzzi were perfect for the cool evenings.

Thanksgiving in Napa

My wife and I stayed at this property over Thanksgiving (Sun-Sun) with our two adult children and their spouses. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom, we took the upstairs, the kids the downstairs. Mark, the owner, and Julie, the property manager, answered our questions and were very helpful before and after the booking process. The kids needed to work remotely before Thanksgiving so we were pleased with the solid internet connection. We liked the ability to park three cars easily in the driveway, and while the location feels remote and very private, it is actually minutes from downtown Napa. The place was clean and well appointed, especially the kitchen, which made preparing our Thanksgiving dinner that much easier. We were very pleased with our stay and would stay again.

Fantastic getaway

The property was even better in person! Conveniently located, but felt like you were secluded. It was perfect for our party of 6 (3 couples) with enough privacy and the communal rooms were just the right size for gathering. The grounds were immaculate, the view from the upper deck (with al fresco dining) was gorgeous, and the kitchen was extremely organized and well stocked. They thought of every detail for your stay. Thank you for the wonderful experience and we cant wait to come back!

The house was wonderful! We were close to everything Napa but sitting on the back porch and looking out at the beautiful scenery behind the house felt like we were "away". We went to wineries, grocery store, restaurants and downtown Napa from here. We would love to stay here again!

Beautiful home for a wedding weekend

My fianceé (now wife) and I wanted a home to host ourselves and some family over our wedding weekend. The house was beautiful, and felt unique. My family loved the hot tub and pool. The surrounding nature made it all the more relaxing. My only wish is that the house was closer to St. Helena where my wedding was located, but even then, it was worth the extra time to get there.

This was a perfect location and house for a recent trip to Napa. So close to all the towns and wineries, yet secluded enough for privacy. So many amenities and features we could have spent the entire trip at the house. Thank you so much for hosting us and we cannot wait to come back!
