As the saying goes, “location is everything!” This property is centrally located to the main area of Sonoma and an easy drive to areas “off the beaten path.”Communication with the host is easy and they are immediately responsive.

Beautiful home. Good base for exploring Sonoma

The house was ideal for our short stay in Sonoma. The inside is well maintained and beautiful. Plenty of space for our two-year-old grandaughter to run around and play. She especially enjoyed 'serving tea' in the Tatami room. Lan was a great host. Checked in with us before and during the stay, but was never intrusive. Would gladly stay here again.

Great house

The house was very clean, well-equipped, and spacious. Loved the tatami room, used it frequently for mediations and yoga. It was further away from downtown Sonoma than we would have liked for walking, but quite close enough by a quick car ride. Overall, excellent.

About the host

Hosted by Lan Marvit

Host profile image
We are a family with small children who fell in love with the spirit of wine country. We found this house (with the protection one huge and magical tree gives the house) perfectly captures the relaxation, openness and energy that make Sonoma so unique. We are excited to share this with guests who will appreciate a truly special place.

Why they chose this property

Unbeatable location: We are near all the attractions and amenities Sonoma has to offer - world class wineries, luxury spas, golf courses, shopping, historic downtown, hiking trails in natural settings and through vineyards, world-class restaurants and local eateries, farmers markets and local fruit stand, museums and art galleries.

Spacious (1614 sqft): the master bedroom, the tatami room, and the space of the family room and adjacent open kitchen are all big, make it perfect for families and friends. The cathedral ceiling makes the space spacious in three dimensions.

Beautiful: the front, side, and backyard have all sort of flowers and plants; the unique and tranquil tatami room provides a romantic atmosphere; the whole glass wall lets the morning sunlight in, makes the dinning room and the kitchen enchanted.

What makes this property unique

Close to everything, and yet quiet and relaxed.
Minutes away from our favorite wineries - Imagery, Little Family Winery, Chateau St Jean, BR Cohn, Ty Caton Vineyards, Muscardini Cellars, and Cline Cellar.
Tatami room is beautiful and is full of smell of the tatami grass.
Local fruit stand down the road - they sell everything, all local stuff.
Local guide is provided.
Ample parking.
Family friendly: The house has many kid's stuff and it's very safe for kids - all tall furniture is fixed to wall.
Strong WiFi in every room, even at the backyard. Many comfortable workspaces inside and outside the house. Great for a staycation.
The house is fully stocked (especially the kitchen): we've put everything in place for guests to be completely at home.
Good for wedding guests: Close to wedding venues. The house has amenities and space for preparations for the weddings. Two off street parking spaces available.
