Two side-by-side villas on an Escondido hillside, with two private pools, a floodlit tennis and basketball court, and valley views that stretch across the mountains – this is a rare setup for large groups wanting room to breathe. Days here tend to organise themselves around the water, the fire pit lounge, and the gazebo, with evenings pulling everyone inside to the grand piano or arcade. When adventure calls, the San Diego Zoo Safari Park is under an hour away – otherwise, the vineyard-framed hills (and world-class wineries) make a compelling case for staying put.

Home truths
This home comprises two adjacent houses, one with seven bedrooms and the other with eight bedrooms.
The lead guest must be at least 25 years old.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's parking for eight cars at each home.
The wood-burning fireplaces cannot be used, as both estates sit in a no-burn zone.
You'll need to bring your own tennis balls (and pickleballs, if you're planning to play) – they're not supplied at the home.
Grounds staff may be on site during your stay to maintain the estates. The neighbouring horse ranch is separate and not accessible as part of your booking.
At full occupancy, you'll need to make use of two rollaway beds here. We think they're best suited to children.
Guests are not permitted to use the tennis court lights.
