Fantastic location on a beautiful vineyard. The master bedroom had incredible views from wrap around windows. Kitchen well equipped, but pantry essentials limited. Only complaint is the overly soft and unsupportive mattresses and pillows in the bedrooms. Overall would definitely stay again.

Casa at Brander

Place was great and very understated, but comfortable and beautiful view. Stay there without a town family to attend, daughters wedding, walking distance to Brander vineyards with free tasting was nice. Everything went well, you won’t be disappointed.

Three couples in their 80s. Friends for over 60 years. Overall had a great time. Loved Los Olivos. Disappointed in Master Bath, no shower (noted in description of house) and tub would not hold water, used other couples shower (not good). Sink in downstairs bathroom - stopper plunger missing had to go under basin to let water out. Missing items in Kitchen. The cat was very friendly.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Oct 2023
We encourage all our guests for their feedback to enhance the quality of our property during and after a guest stays. We do not stay at the house very often being that it is usually rented to our guests, so we do appreciate any feed back. We note and fix anything that has been reported by the guests, or that we find ourselves immediately. These issues stated are all an easy fix and will be taken care of right away. The master bathroom is listed on rental sites as a bath tub only. There is a shower upstairs and downstairs making up 3 bathrooms total. We do hope that the description is legible that our guests do note and read the accommodations thoroughly prior to booking.

About the host

Hosted by Michele Higgins

Host profile image
Fred Brander, the owner, planted the first grapes in 1975. He has since been producing first-class wine since 1977. While this property, The Hilltop House, was just acquired 3 years ago, it is adjacent to the Brander Vineyard and has the views and the feeling of being in a working vineyard. Fred has also planted a crop of agaves that will be producing Mezcal and Agave liquors in a few more years. He is also an avid collector of Mexican Folk Art that he bring s back from his many trips to all areas of Mexico. The entire house has the feeling and beauty of a Mexican Hacienda.

Why they chose this property

This property is very rural, quiet, and very private. The Brander tasting room is available for guest's to enjoy during working hours while staying at the property. The town of Los Olivos is within one mile distance to the center of town, and Solvang is accessible by car, or for the more avid bicyclists it is a nice ride from the property 6.4 miles.

What makes this property unique

Access to the Brander Vineyard Tasting Room. Extremely private and relaxing. The property is in the middle of an active working vineyard. Agaves planted on property. Gorgeous view of the Santa Ynez Valley, mountains, and vineyard. Centrally located to restaurants, stores, tasting room, wineries.
