Oakland,CAApril in Napa
Left on 05/12/2013 for a stay in April 2013
The 2 bedroom condo was perfect for a weekend celebrating the 50th birthdays of my son and his partner. Walking distance to the downtown, right across from the Napa River and the river-walk, it was a warm weekend and (for them) a just perfect respite from the cold and rain of Seattle!.
We even cooked on the patio grill one night. -

Spent several days here in mid-April celebrating my son and his partner's 50th birthday. What a treat for them: warm weather (they live in Seattle!), lots of wine tasting and good food. The condo was perfect for the 4 of us, right by the river-walk and all the downtown restaurants. Very convenient and very comfortable. Would do it again in a flash!

Kennebunk, MaineExcellent accommodation, prime location in Napa!
Left on 04/11/2013 for a stay in March 2013
I rented a 2-bedroom unit at villa Murialdo in March 2013 for a long weekend with my two daughters. The apartment was nicely furnished, very clean, and the location couldn't have been better. The check-in was the easiest I've ever experienced with a vacation rental. The owners live on the premises and are available in case of any questions or problems (we had none), but they are not at all intrusive. The WiFi service was excellent, notably better than most hotels, and that is a major plus for my family (and for anyone who uses travel websites/apps for information on restaurants, local attractions, etc. when traveling). I would enthusiastically recommend this rental to anyone looking for a flexible and very reasonably priced alternative to a hotel.

Left on 03/07/2013 for a stay in February 2013
We loved being able to use this home as our home base for wine tasting in Napa. The best part was coming home and being able to walk around the cute town of Napa for wine-tasting bars, restaurants, the river walk and more.
The home was cute, clean and comfy and pet friendly. We loved it! -

I spent my second weekend at one of the units in Villa Murialdo. Once again I was 100% pleased with the experience. The units are very nice and the location is unbeatable. My friends and I were able to cook, relax, and do a little wine tasting. It was the perfect weekend away.

Williamsburg, VAFantastic place to stay!
Left on 01/25/2013 for a stay in January 2013
In the area for our grandson's wedding in Davis, Ca and some vists to the wineries.Convenient for both! From the moment we stepped in the door we felt at home. Nicely decorated, had everything we could possibly need. Loved being so close to downtown Napa that we could walk to everything.
Grill on balcony used for steak dinner on my birthday and grilled chicken dinner for 8 on Sun. Could have used a couple more knives for that dinner for 8! but other than that we had everything we needed.
Lots of info on the wineries - easy access to Napa and Sonoma. Didn't take that long to get into San Francisco either.
Would go back in a minute if we are ever out that way again. They even printed out return boarding passes for us.
Our daughter (the grooms mother) says I should tell you what a great place you have. They also stayed with us for two nights.
Thanks again for providing a great place to stay on our vacation. -

The absolute best thing we loved about Sandy's vacation rental is its location and on-site parking. it's literally across the road from the visitor center and the many restaurants on Main Street. It made for a very easy stroll to dinner after a day out touring vineyards. We also enjoyed the comfortable and thoroughly well equipped apartment. Sandy provided lots of information on what to do around Napa Valley - thanks!!

Except for the big fact that we couldn't get the bedroom TV to work, the unit was very nice. The manager came up, gave some excuse about contacting the previous renters who said they didn't watch TV and that was that.

This apartment was absolutely lovely. The pictures on the Vrbo website are dead on. The apartment was charming, well-cared for, clean, convenient to downtown Napa and stocked with everything we needed. It was a bonus to have washer and dryer in the apartment so we could save on checking in bags at the airport. We loved everything about it! Next visit to Napa there will be no question as to where we will stay.

Kitchen has everything needed to cook but many restaurants are within walking distance. Will stay there again.

My husband and I stayed in this sweet little 2 bedroom apt and loved the location and the accomodations!
It is literally across the street from some nice eateries, a short walk to wine, coffee, more food, shopping, etc.
The apartment is very clean, nicely furnished and well equipped. The only negative was we couldnt get the coffee maker to work (need written directions).
Overall a great place!!! -

We have stayed in both 2 bedroom units. They are very clean and have all the little necessities. (Not just wine/kitchen related but also boards games, books and videos for the kids). In addition they are right in downtown with an easy walk to restaurants, shops and the river. It was a nice little oasis that felt like home. We can't wait to return!

My husband and I stayed recently at the Villa Murialdo. This is the second Vrbo condo we have experienced. We enjoyed the accomodations very much, and the easy walking distance to downtown. Not much of a carpet person so prefer wood or ceramic floors, but most everything else was very nice. Very quiet area. Nice to have a parking place reserved on the property. We would go back.

Left on 10/15/2012 for a stay in October 2012
We would not recommend this vacation rental. It was not our first pick but we had to settle for it. Upon our arrival we realized that the low rental price was in fact in line with the quality of the property. Not that it was terrible place but it was very average and we had something else in mind. Next time we'll go back to "Chateau de Vie".

We really enjoyed the comfort and convenience of this rental. The accomodations were great, and the location in downtown Napa gave us a great way to finish our days after visiting nearby wineries - by sitting on the outdoor patio with some wine and cheese, and then heading out to dinner with many nearby choices within short walking distance.

Our stay at Villa Murialdo was absolutely fantastic - it was so great to be within walking distance of all of the great businesses in downtown Napa (Oxbow, Morimoto, Cole's, etc etc).
The apartment was very clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the owners were incredibly nice and very easy to communicate with.
I could not recommend this rental more highly. Thanks, Sandy! -

Silver Lake, OHThe Perfect Place for Two Couples
Left on 08/09/2012 for a stay in July 2012
Villa Murialdo was the perfect spot for two couples. We stayed for four nights, and we enjoyed having the space to spread out during our stay. Also, we were able to cook dinner in the fully equipped kitchen, which saved us money. There is a cooler in the condo, so we packed it full of food and took it with us so that we could eat between wineries.
One bedroom has aC, and the other doesn't, but it got cool at night, so it wasn't a problem. The price was so reasonable for four people, and parking is included. The decor is fine, but a little outdated. If you are driving, be careful when entering the driveway; it's a little steep where the street meets the driveway. We scraped the bottom of our car the first time.
I would definitely stay at Villa Murialdo again! The location and price are fantastic!

A great location to walk to all of the great restaurants, riverside shops, and downtown stores. Just a hop and a jump by car to the greatest vineyards in Napa.

This four unit condominium is in a convenient downtown Napa location, within walking distance to everything downtown and easy access to the highway to the up valley where there are lots of wineries. The apartments are very comfortable and clean and have everything one needs to make for an enjoyable stay. The temperature was fairly warm during our stay and it would have been nice to have central air conditioning. Otherwise, delightful accommodations.

Left on 06/18/2012 for a stay in June 2012
Thanks, we enjoyed ourselves so much. We could come home each day after sight seeing or wine tasting and relax for the evening. We would grill out on the deck or just sit and unwind from the day.
The location is so nice and close to downtown Napa that after a nice rest, we could go hit the night life or just see the downtown and even partake in the weekly street fair. We were even able to have visitors come a spend the night.
We were there long enough we even needed to wash some clothes and fortunately we could. We will come back again and again. -

The condo was well appointed and very convenient to the wine country. The location was perfect for walking to restaurants and shops in Napa. Sandy was very helpful with suggestions of things to do in the area. The only word of caution is if you need the roll away futon for sleeping, it really is a good size for a child or a very small adult, not for our adult daughter (5'7", 125 lbs) and certainly not for our adult son (6'2" 230lbs).

Sandy's two bedroom/two bathroom apartment was the perfect get away place for a girls retreat. The apartment location made it easy to quickly (2 blocks) start the walk through down town. The accommodations were clean, smartly furnished, and loaded with nice notes on "how to's." Sandy also provided a list of things to do in Napa prior to our arrival which greatly assisted us as planned more of the details. I highly recommend Sandy's place and when I return to Napa plan to stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Murialdo right in the heart of downtown Napa. It is on a quiet street but just step out the front door and you are in the middle of some of the best restaurants and wine bars in the country. The Villa itself is cozy, clean and so comfortable. Keith and Sandy, the hosts are very gracious. After a day of wine tasting and dining at a great restaurant, Silos is the place to go for live music and fun entertainment. We will stay here everytime we come to Napa!

We had everything we needed in the rental to make for a comfortable "stay." The furnishings were more than ample and it was so remarkably quiet I was amazed. At all times we felt we had congenial neighbors and a very safe and convenient location. We really appreciated the two off-street parking spots since we had visitors. We could easily walk to many downtown locations, and only wished we had more time to spend doing that. I greatly appreciated all the information for local travel (maps, brochures, etc.) that you had for us. We loved our stay and would do it again in a minute. I also appreciated the prompt responses I got from you regarding our reservations and travel details - I have them on file for next time. Thanks to both of you from...Pat and Nancy Ryan

Left on 02/21/2012 for a stay in February 2012
I stayed here for a two night getaway with a couple girlfriends. From the moment we arrived everything was perfect. The unit was even nicer than it looked in the pictures. The patio was great for soaking up the sun. The kitchen (with an adorably set dining table) made preparing food for a picnic while wine tasting and then grilling at night as easy as can be. Lastly we couldn't have asked for a better location. Everything in downtown Napa (restaurants, Oxbow Market, wine tasting rooms, etc.) were within walking distance.
Overall the perfect experience! I highly recommend staying here for a hassle free, comfortable Napa experience. -

The location of this place is wonderful, it is two blocks away from main street (near Celadon restaurant).
The place is nice and clean. The only negative is that the windows which have a/C units are very drafty. Because we visited in December, the rooms with the a/C units got rather cold. -

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Villa Murialdo. The two bedroom apartment was clean, well maintained and comfortable. There were books and maps about Napa and the surrounding area in the apartment that we used to plan our sightseeing for each day. The kitchen was well stocked with the necessities such as plates, utensils, pots and pans, drip coffeemaker and there were plenty of washcloths, handtowels and bathtowels as well as toiletries. The location is perfect as it is within walking distance or a short driving distance of the Napa sites. We felt at home in this apartment and will definitely stay again at Villa Murialdo when we return to Napa.

Left on 12/06/2011 for a stay in December 2011
I was referred to Villa Murialdo through a friend and was not disappointed. The place was large enough for two couples to stay comfortably and it was no problem sharing a bathroom.
There are plenty of things to do within walking distance. We will definitely be back.
Also, we booked a mini-van wine tour through Sandy and that really made our weekend even more special. Rob, our driver, took us to some really great spots that we never would have found without him. Excellent value!
I wasn't sure what December weather would be like, but it was beautiful. The vineyards were gold and yellow and the sky was clear blue. Light jackets and scarves were all we needed to be comfortable. -

55197Great location; ideal accommodation
Left on 11/29/2011 for a stay in November 2011
We found this rental via Vrbo; we were staying in Napa for two nights following a conference and wanted something more comfortable (and affordable) than a luxury hotel. Villa Murialdo definitely filled the bill; only $150 per night per couple, immaculate, fully and tastefully furnished, with great flat screen TVs, DVD and CD players and free Wi-Fi (regretfully, we only used the latter). There is both covered and uncovered off-street parking. The locale couldn't be greater; tucked in behind the Napa General Store and near the Napa River. Our unit (there are four units) was upstairs and extremely quiet, a great bonus since we went to bed early, worn out with wine tasting! We wished we had been able to stay longer. The only drawback is the $100 non-refundable cleaning fee. (I believe they also accept pets.)

Boston, MAGreat condo in downtown Napa
Left on 11/03/2011 for a stay in October 2011
I stayed here with two friends for five days in October and it worked out wonderfully! Check-in was a breeze, the condo is spacious, nicely decorated and clean. It's in a quiet location and gets lots of sun on the balcony. Sandy and her husband (who's name escapes me...sorry!) live on the premises and are lovely. And you simply can't beat that location...just steps from great restaurants and shops in Napa. Only reason for 4 out of 5 stars on Comfort was that there are limited kitchen supplies (i.e., just 4 place settings of each item, and little/no available trash bags, tupperware, or the like). We used the kitchen quite a bit for breakfast/lunch (to balance out the huge restaurant meals every night) it would've been nice if there was a bit more there. But we got by, and I would definitely recommend this place to people looking to visit wine country!

My mom and I celebrated my sister's birthday by staying at Villa Murialdo and touring the wine country. We really enjoyed our stay at the Villa! It is in a fabulous location to the new River Walk area of Napa - right across the street - from amazing shops, restaurants and bakery. It was so nice to have the roominess of a two bedroom condo with kitchen and family room. It was also extremely quiet. We will definitely stay at the Villa again! We also talked to Sandy and Keith often for tips on wineries and restaurants - they are so friendly and helpful!

The rental unit was perfect for friends since so many B&Bs; cater to couples and chain hotels just don't seem right for Napa! The location was in downtown Napa so great for walking to local restaurants after a day of wine touring. The unit was also very clean and well-equipped.

This is a perfect get away. The hosts are ready and wiling to help in any way they can. Wee were celebrating two special anniversaries, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts left helpful suggestions in a folder in the room, and they even helped with making touring appointments at a couple of wineries. It's a great place to stay and we are looking forward to coming here again.
Thank you, K. + S., for everything. -

Mountain View, CAPerfect condo in the heart of downtown Napa!
Left on 10/17/2011 for a stay in October 2011
My mom and her friend came to visit for a weekend in October and really wanted to do a wine weekend - after searching high and low for hotels and only finding options in Santa Rosa, I decided to search Vrbo, which I use for my Tahoe ski trips. Sandy's place had amazing reviews and just happened to be vacant for the weekend! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She was quick with returning all emails and the place was a catch. You can't beat the location: literally 1 block from downtown Napa, and the condo was gorgeous. The beds were comfortable and all of the decorations are adorable. Perfect for wine country. We even had coffee to make in the morning and it was delish. Needless to say I would definitely stay again or recommend to a small group or 2 couples venturing to Napa :-)

Left on 10/10/2011 for a stay in September 2011
My husband and I along with my sister and brother-in-law spent 8 wonderful days in Napa to celebrate my 50th birthday.
Our home base at Murialdo was fantastic! It is conveniently located to all the popular places of downtown Napa, we were able to walk wherever we chose to go in the immediate area.
The villa itself was comfortable and accomodated us well. The essential things for general housekeeping were readily available. The only thing we needed to supply was the food we wanted to cook or to have as snacks.
My husband had planned a few surprises for me upon our arrival to the villa and Sandy was instrumental in making those happen. It was great, thank you Sandy!
My only recomendation would be minor maintenance issues, such as placing towel racks/hooks in guest bath/bedrooms; replacing blown light bulbs and consider replacing/updating pots and pans.
If ever back in Napa would definitely want stay here again! -
First Time Napa
Honolulu, HawaiiGreat location and comfortable accommodations.
Left on 09/29/2011 for a stay in September 2011
We spent two nights with my two sons and their girlfriends. The unit is easy to find and located close to so much in downtown Napa. We spent most of our time (when not on the road touring wineries and eating dinner in Yountville) at the nearby Oxbow Marketplace. We especially enjoyed Gott's Roadside (for burgers)and Modern Bakery (for breakfast). There also happened to be a nice farmer's market open near Oxbow on Saturday. We also discovered that there were many other eateries and shopping within walking distance.
The accommodations were comfortable. Since we had three couples, one couple had to sleep on the fold out bed in the living room which was not so comfortable. They slept better the second night putting the mattress on the floor. I think for 2 couples it would have been very comfortable. The bedrooms were neat and comfortable and the bathrooms were no worse than your typical hotel bathrooms. We didn't cook there so I can't comment on the usefulness of the kitchen.
Overall, I would say that nothing was over the top in luxury,but everything was certainly comfortable. The location was terrific for a base because of convenience to so many services. I would stay here again, preferably with just one other couple.

Jacksonville FLExceeded our expectations!
Left on 09/25/2011 for a stay in September 2011
From check in to check out a week later, we could not have enjoyed our stay at Villa Murialdo more. The apt was clean and comfortable and suprisingly well furnished to meet all our needs. The owners, Sandy and Keith,live right next door and were friendly and helpful but never imposing. The bed was very comfortable and the linens definitely high quality. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was a plus. We cooked in several nights and found everything we needed to prepare and enjoy our dinners. The very best part of Villa Murialdo is the wonderful location! It is within easy walking distance to the River Walk, restaurants and shops and nightly entertainment at Silos. We covered the whole Napa Valley area and found that buying a picnic lunch at Whole Foods (packing it in a cooler provided in the apt) then enjoying a picnic in a beautiful winery each day followed by a wine tasting worked best for us. Our favorite wineries were Hess and Suttui Winery which has a great deli and plethora of cheeses on site plus pleasant picnic facilities.
The weather and wineries were great in September, and we are already looking forward to a repeat visit and staying at Villa Murialdo,of course! -

We didn't have to drive at all once we got back from our winery visits to get something to eat and go shopping. The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. Will definitely look at staying here again if we're in the area.

In each one there was a book with palces to go and things to do. Sandy and her husband are very nice. The live in the 4th condo so if you need anything (which we really didn't every thing was there) they are there to help you. We did need to print our boarding passes and they let us do it at their condo. Would stay there again in a heart beat!!!

We had a great stay at the Villa Murialdo. Communication with Sandy was quick and easy -- all the check-in and parking instructions were sent to us well ahead of time. The apartment is only a two minute walk to the Napa riverfront and its many restaurants. After a few days of wine tasting, Downtown Joe's was a great place along the river to grab a brew. Our favorite place, though, was Sweetie Pies bakery which was even closer than the downtown. Oh, and the wi-fi was fantastic!

We chose to stay at the Villa Murialdo on a whim because a previous reserviation with another vacation rental fell through, and we thought this would be perfect and we were right. It was 3 girlfriends and myself and we enjoyed our time thoroughly. We enjoyed the location of the rental as it was within walking distance to all of the restaurants we wanted to enjoy and walking allowed all of us to be able to enjoy a drink with dinner as well. :) The condo had all the things we needed to bake and cook, and the beds were comfy. I wouldn't suggest having any more than 4 or 5 ppl in this unit as 4 was just perfect. I would highly recommend this rental to friends and anyone looking for a quiet getaway that is close to everything Downtown Napa has to offer. The Oxbow Public Market is a must!

Right near the river, great location for a morning jog and to grab any meal during the day. It is walking distance for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This two bedroom was big for four of us adults. The best part was the balcony and a washer and dryer. The kitchen was stocked with necessary goods. Did I say the location was great?!? I recommend eating at Carpe Diem, Grace's Table, and Sweetie Pies. Model bakery in the Oxbow was amazing, too. Too bad we did not stay here long enough to enjoy all what the apartment and the location had to offer.

I recently traveled to Napa Valley with my sister and a friend, we had a wonderful
time. We stayed at Villa Murialdo the perfect vacation spot. located within
walking distance to the downtown area. The condo has features most vacationer
look for when searching for a vacation getaway. The beds are very
comfy, the kitchen has all the essential you will need, the patio feature an
outdoor grill, also two parking spaces is provided. This was our first time in Napa
we had a blast. I really enjoyed the wine tours, met a lot of people from all over,
and once our day came to an end we retreated back to the condo which was
like our home, away from home. The only downside, we stayed only three days,
I wish we had stayed longer and foregone the trip to San Francisco.
The proprietors were very nice and helpful.
Look forward to next year! -

We booked this apartment so we could bring our little four legged friends along. It was such a pleasant surprise when we checked in, very easy to find and extremely roomy and comfortable. Beautifully appointed with everything we could need for an extended stay much less a weekend. Since my daughter in law had lived in Napa for six years previously, we both were very familiar with the area and this is truly one of the best locations. A short walk will take you to all of the best restaurants and shops in the heart of downtown Napa including the beautiful new riverwalk complex. The owners were very friendly and accomodating, the place was immmaculate when we arrived and the beds very comfy. We love the area so much and like to visit several times a year and now I definately feel like this is the perfect place to stay.

Left on 03/21/2011 for a stay in March 2011
I am so glad I ended up going with this rental. I had checked a few of the hotels in downtown Napa, and thought the prices a little bit crazy - especially for March (the off season). This rental ended up being cheaper than any hotel I could find, and was probably better in the long run. The apartment was very nicely furnished, very accommodating, and had all modern amenities. The only downsides were that because its on the ground floor you really need to keep the blinds closed for privacy. Also the people upstairs were very "stompy". But other than that it was great. Everything was in walking distance as it is basically right on the end of main street. In two short days we managed to walk either into or past about 20 wine tasting rooms and ate at several very delicious restaurants. Highly recommended.

The two bedroom rental was in a perfect location to wine and dine throughout downtown Napa. It was also very quiet and the owners were helpful in fulfilling requests. Overall the unit was quite nice and very clean. However, it would be great to see an updated master bath area on our next trip! The flooring/sink area/shower were clean, but showing quite a bit of age. Also, with the cleaning deposit required I would have hoped that we would not be responsible for the stripping of beds at the end of our stay.
Maybe next time? All in all we would certainly stay here again and enjoyed our stay. -

This was the first vacation rental that my girlfriends has stayed in and they were absolutely blown away by how beautiful and comfortable the apt was, not to mention that the unit is located within walking distance to downtown Napa.
The unit was stocked with everything we need, washer/dryer unit, satellite tv in all rooms, internet connection, all down to hot chocolate and tea ! :)
We were a bit worried about checking in since we got delayed and arrived in Napa on a rainy night around 9:30pm, but were soon put to rest as everything we needed to know was on the email that Sandy sent me a few weeks prior. Checking out was just as easy! I will highly recommend staying at Villa Murialdo and will most likely stay here again for my next visit! :)

We bought this trip with my brother and his wife at a silent auction. We stayed two nights and had a great time. Very quite area but within seconds of Main street Napa...thats walking.
The unit had everything we needed and was very clean. Great weather allowed us to enjoy the balcony for our evening cocktail and morning coffee. Only one bath but we shared nicely.
Would definitely go back and stay here.
The location is the best -

My cousin and I stayed here for our birthdays and rented the 2 bedroom 1 bath. It was very clean, roomy, comfy sofa, Dvd's, and fully equipped with wonderful towels, linens, and everything you need in the kitchen.
They recommended the Platypus Wine tasting tour which was great! Platypus picked us up at our apartment and dropped us off. A top notch 5 hour tour and wine tasting!
We enjoyed every moment and hope to go back! -

Boston, MAA beautiful hidden gem right in downtown Napa!
Left on 11/03/2010 for a stay in October 2010
This place truly is a hidden gem right downtown. My husband and I vacationed with another couple and the place was wonderful for two couples. Not a ton of privacy, but plenty of room to spread and out and be comfortable. We did the wine tour (9:45 - 2:45) with Keith and highly recommend it - he is a great tour guide and very knowledgeable about the area. Keith and Sandy were also very helpful in making restaurant recommendations. The condo really has everything you could possibly need - we grilled in one night and were able to prepare a meal comparable to anything we could have made at home. Being able to walk to everything downtown was nice. We used our GPS to locate the place and had no trouble at all. Good WiFi signal (nice touch). We will definitely return and stay with Sandy and Keith!

The location of this condo in the heart of downtown Napa and right across from the Wine Train is ideal and provided the perfect "home base" for us to not only visit the wine country but neighboring areas such as St. Helena and Yountville where we enjoyed trying a variety of restaurants and smaller wineries. Accommodations were very comfortable and provided everything we needed. We will definitely stay at Villa Murialdo again!

Sandy was a great host - very helpful when organizing our trip by giving suggestions along the way. Upon arrival at the home we were pleased by the fantastic location and proximity to downtown Napa (walking distance to shops!) .. The home itself was very comfortable, and had every amenity we could think of. My husband had forgot his toothpaste, and Sandy had travel size toothpaste ready for us in the bathroom vanity area to use. We were very happy with our accomodations & would recommend this home in the future to any potential guests!

Left on 09/01/2010 for a stay in August 2010
My wife stumbled upon Sandy's listing in our search for a great Napa location for our honeymoon. Sandy was great about responding to our inquiries, and provided lots of great info about the town and the valley.
Her husband, Keith, was very helpful as well. If its your first time in the valley, make sure to ask about their private wine tour service. Keith drove us and another young couple around all day so that we could check out different wineries.
The property was in great shape and was very comfortable. We felt very much at home and secure throughout our stay. The location really is amazing - only two blocks to the downtown area of Napa. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone interested in a week or two in the Valley. -

Left on 07/30/2010 for a stay in July 2010
My husband Steve and myself stayed at villa Murialdo with our 2 best friends to celebrate Steve's 60TH birthday on the 4TH July. We had a fabulous time, beautiful property furnished and equipped to luxury standards, prime central location and most importantly, the unconditional help and friendliness of sandy and Keith.( sorry Keith, never did manage to get to your bar...Just so much to see and we only had 7 days). Keith was available to assist us, if required, but did not interfere or cramp our style. We loved the fact that the Centre of town, with a fantastic selection of eating places, was just a 5 minute walk away but the apartment was in an extremely quiet and peaceful location. We were fortunate to be a part of the July 4TH celebrations in Napa and thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the warmth of the locals.There is lots to see in the surrounding area, not just wineries. I cannot recommend this property, and Napa itself, highly enough. The only problem was that the Propery we rented for our second week did not live up to this standard, you spoiled us so much!

We had a great time at Villa Murialdo. We were in town to visit family and my husband also ran in the 1/2 marathon. The condo was well equipped (appreciated the extras like laundry soap and cards/board games for the kids). The first night we were worried about street noise since it is close to downtown shops/restaraunts but it was quiet and we slept wonderfully in the comfortable beds. The condo was roomy enough for our 2 young kids to play and was much better than staying in a hotel. It was also nice to be able to walk to the mall and river walk. We will stay here again.

My sister & brother-in-law joined us on an extended weekend getaway. We stayed at Villa Murialdo Fri-Mon and had a great visit! The condo was exactly as described with all the amenities. Including four bottles of cold water in the fridge.
It was situated within walking distance to downtown Napa.
We took the "Walking tour with George" $20 each well-spent. For the wine testers in the group we should have bought the $20 tasting card the minute we arrived. It is found at the Visitors Information Center. We could have utilized it more over the course of the weekend. However, it is useable on a next visit as it expires at the end of the year.
The drive up the Silverado Trail was fabulous and we had a nice walk around Calistoga and Sonoma. -

We stayed at this apartment in July of 2010. We were traveling with 5 of us. The apartment is very nice and well furnished. We easily slept 5 of us comfortably. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. The fully equipped kitchen and bbq grill on the porch allowed us to easily cook dinner there. The location is great located right in the heart of Napa. The city center as well as the river front district are a short walk away. The only complaint I would have about this apartment is that there is only one window a/C unit and it struggled to keep the house cool.

My wife and I stayed at Villa Murialdo over the July 4th week. The unit was all we needed to be comfortable and to suit our needs to be convenient to downtown Napa, good restaurants, shopping and early morning walks around the neighborhood to loosen up before getting the day started. Also very handy to getting to Hwy. 29, Silverado Trail, and Interstate 80 to San Francisco. The location is in a quiet well established neighborhood. We both would recommend staying here during your wine country get-a-way.

Freeport, METhe perfect place to stay to discover the Napa Valley
Left on 06/10/2010 for a stay in May 2010
Villa Murialdo's two bedroom unit in Napa California was the perfect base for our recent visit to Napa Valley. Conveniently located just steps from the Napa river walk with it's shops and restaurants or to just get out for a brisk morning walk, you really could not ask for a better location in Napa.
The unit was very clean, well laid out and quite comfortable. Sandy has thought of everything in these units and we lacked for nothing. Need tape? Just look around. A soft sided cooler for a day trip? It's there! We packed light and washed our clothing as needed in the handy washer/dryer in the unit. There is a gas grill on the deck which we utilized for a dinner or two. It was really just like being home!
Napa is the perfect base to discover the Napa Valley and surrounding area. Sandy's place is just minutes from Route 29 or the Silverado wine trail. We visited a dozen or more wineries, made a day trip to the Pacific Coast Highway, and spent an afternoon in San Francisco all within easy driving distance from Villa Murialdo. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return again soon! -

great care in assuring your stay is welcome and comfortable. If you prefer, the
kitchen is well equipped to allow for your own cooking and grilling on the
deck. Or, simply saunter over to the bakery or restaurants a block or more
away and enjoy a sunny spot eating by the river. You even have your own
laundry facility if you need it. Covered parking and convenient wireless
Internet is provided. We really enjoy staying here and plan to return for our

This rental was awesome -- spacious 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment very well appointed with everything needed for the week we stayed. Owners go the extra mile to equip the apartment with the little things you might not think about but are very appreciative to have such as coffee filters and coffee and laundry soap for the washer. Apartment was nicely decorated and well maintained. The only exception was the screen door to the porch being off the track, but the temps were too cold and there were no bugs to keep out, so it didn't matter to us. 2nd floor location was very secure.
Location was quiet area 1 block off the main street in downtown Napa -- easily within walking distance of everything we needed. Lots of information available in the apartment about the Napa Valley area to browse at our leisure. Free WiFi a definite plus.

We were within walking distance of great restaurants (including AM coffee runs), the river and a cool little jazz club (Siloh's).
After a day of wine tasting we were able to enjoy some great music, delicious appetizers and a low-key atmosphere. Best of all, we only walked about 200 yards to reach the front door of our accomodations.
In summary, our stay literally could not have been improved. We will definitely be booking this unit again!! -

Left on 03/08/2010 for a stay in March 2010
If you go to Napa and you are looking for a place to stay, Sandy and Keith Stansberry's Division Street villa in downtown Napa may be the best deal you will find in this quaint town.
What makes this place special really are the hosts - Sandy and Keith.
They catered to our every need and to top it all off they own a jazz place across the street (Silo's) that really landed up being our hangout after dinner every day. Live band, great people and great service.
The 2-bedroom cottage is wonderful - not only was it clean, it was homey. It has everything you need, and everywhere in downtown, you can walk. That means tasting more wines in more places. : )
Alas! We had to leave and if Keith and Sandy will allow us to use the place again in a few months, we would jump at the opportunity.
Thank You Sandy and Keith. We can't wait to return the favor. And Mum's was delicious.. : )

The location is all you could want; within walking distance of all of downtown restaurants, across the street from the library which we used often, and close to Sweetie Pies, a shop that doesn't help you count calories! Two bedroom, two bath apartment was ideal for entertaining guests. Perfect place for starting a daily walk along the waterfront, going to the theater or roaming the neighborhood without using the car. We wouldn't want to say more since we may want to return to Napa next year and would want some apartment availability! I suppose that says it all.

Los Angeles, CAGreat stay in Downtown Napa
Left on 03/01/2010 for a stay in February 2010
My wife and our friends from out of town enjoyed a wonderful stay in Villa Murialdo. The apartment was very spacious with all the comforts of home; much better than a bed & breakfast. It was also conveniently located walking distance from all the activities Downtown Napa has to offer. Will definitely stay again and will recommend it to all my friends.

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Murialdo. Downtown Napa is undergoing a great waterfront transformation and this is the perfect location to experience that. Great food, wine and walking just out the front door.
Then, drive just across the river and hit the Silverado trail North for quick access to wine tasting in Napa, Yountville, St Helena, and beyond. -

North DakotaGreat, relaxing Birthday Stay
Left on 01/20/2010 for a stay in December 2009
We came back to Villa Murialdo in December, because we had spent such a lovely week there in May for our anniversary. This stay was equally nice for us. The place was very relaxing for us away from the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives.
IT has a lovely livingroom to sit and unwind. It has a deck that is equally prized when the weather is nice(which it is, most of the time). The fully functional kitchen is furnished with whatever wares you may need and even has a bit of a pantry to help with spicing up your meals. You can even rusltle up a cup of coffee in the morning before you head out.
The bedrooms are ample and decorated very nicely with a wine country motif.There is even room for more that just 2 or 4 people to stay if you need.
The location is perfect for walking to downtown Napa. There are many things to do there. Its also great because its so close to your first winery of the day, wherever that may be.
We will definitely come back to stay again. -

Villa Murialdo was a great convenient location with easy walking distance all downtown Napa restauarants. The unit was very nice with washer / dryer, full kitchen, etc. This is a great value and excellent location for your Wine Country vacation - the tour service they offer is unmatched in value. Thanks Suzette for the tour and thanks Sandy for your hospitality - we'll be back!

Mountain View CABest hidden find in Napa
Left on 11/23/2009 for a stay in November 2009
We've stayed at the Villa Murialdo apartments many
times and can't imagine staying anywhere else. Right
in downtown Napa, with a little kitchen, comfy living
room, comfy and quiet bedrooms...it's perfect for us
and another couple. With so many dog-friendly
wineries we always bring our little pup and these
units allow for that which adds to our love of this
place. The decor and amenities are hotel-equal (not
resort, but anything you might need). Really great
and we plan to come back twice a year for our Napa
getaways.

Left on 11/04/2009 for a stay in November 2009
This condo was very clean, equipped with everything we expected (bring shampoo and conditioner). Walls and ceiling seem to be insulated as we didn't hear neighbors above. Lots of brochures, books and info for your stay in Napa. Excellent restaurants and Silo's jazz club are literally across the street, downtown Napa/Napa River and River Walk are 1 block away.

LondonGreat apartment in great location
Left on 11/04/2009 for a stay in October 2009
After staying in hotels for the past week or so it was nice to have an apartment, particularly one so well equipped. We took advantage of the wine tasting driving service and it was well worth it. The property is also in a great location for bars and restaurants.

This Villa is a wonderful condo with plenty of space and very updated. We were pleasently surprised with the high quality and conforts of home feel. The location is also great if you want to be close to downtown Napa. I would recommend this place for 2-4 people. Thanks for a great stay.
