About this property

Casa La Paloma - Steps from the Sonoma Plaza with Pool and Spa

Discover Casa La Paloma, a beautifully restored Sonoma vacation rental in the heart of wine country. This historic Spanish-style home, refreshed with modern California touches, now features a private pool and spa (added 2025). Ideally located just steps from the Sonoma Plaza, it offers easy access to renowned restaurants, tasting rooms, and local shops.

The open floor plan of Casa La Paloma’s main floor is perfect for groups to enjoy a meal in the well-appointed kitchen while chatting with those relaxing in the living room. Or, open the French doors to the back patio and enjoy a glass of wine surrounded by flowers. With four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, the home comfortably accommodates families and friends alike.

Outdoors, lounge by the pool, unwind in the spa beneath the stars, or dine al fresco on the private patio. Thoughtful amenities, luxury linens, and timeless design make Casa La Paloma your ideal Sonoma Valley getaway.

Casa La Paloma's unique location provides you with the comfortable feeling of being in a neighborhood and the fun of being only a short stroll from the life of the Plaza – walk to the Farmer’s Market, the best restaurants, the historic Sebastiani theater and endless wine tastings. You’ll be pleased you don’t have to drive home!

In the old Parlor/Library you can quietly read, watch TV, check your email or send the kids there to play board games.

Off the Great Room you’ll find the master bedroom with it’s beautiful, king-sized hand carved four-poster bed, European armoire and French doors which open to the patio. The adjoining spacious master bath has been completely remodeled for comfort.

The second downstairs bedroom is in the heart of the older part of the house. It has a queen brass bed and is romantic, cozy and charming. Here, the spirit of the building welcomes you warmly.

Upstairs, there are 2 more bedrooms.
The room on the right brings the mission Spanish character of old Sonoma together with modern style and comfort, and has a queen-sized four poster bed.

The bedroom on the left, sunny and sweet, has two full-sized beds. Perhaps this is the best room for the children or a couple with a child.

There is no bathroom upstairs in this part of the old historic house.
Just downstairs off the kitchen, there is a second newly remodeled bathroom shared with the downstairs bedrooms.

Enjoy Casa La Paloma for a wine country stay with style, a beautiful back-yard pool and spa experience, and an unmatched location near restaurants and tasting rooms.

About the host

Hosted by Kendall Comfort

Host profile image
We are two sisters, Avra and Noni (Deirdre), born and raised in the beautiful town of Sonoma. Casa La Paloma has been part of our family for many years and holds a special place in our hearts.

Our mom, Moona O’Toole, ran a beloved boutique in this space for years before transforming it into a vacation rental in 2013. With her incredible sense of style, she created a home filled with warmth, character, and charm. In 2024, we renovated Casa La Paloma to add modern comforts—luxury linens, updated amenities, and thoughtful touches—while preserving the Colonial Spanish décor and Early California Sonoma ambiance that make it so unique.

Today, Noni is a professional horse trainer in Sonoma County, and Avra lives in Denver with her family, working for The Nature Conservancy. Though life has taken us in different directions, hosting Casa La Paloma allows us to share our roots and welcome guests to experience the magic of Sonoma the way we grew up knowing it.

We hope you feel at home here and enjoy creating your own memories at Casa La Paloma, just as our family has for generations!

Why they chose this property

The beauty of this property is in it's history. It was built as a home in the 1870s although it's adobe insulation in walls goes back to earlier times. It was the Bates family home in the 1800s.I have always maintained it's historic character and appreciated it's beautiful large garden area It is close to the Plaza but just enough away not to be too noisy and to have a neighborhood feeling. The best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

It's location, California style and great gathering places for friends and family make Casa La Paloma an ideal setting to enjoy Sonoma. It is 1 block to the Plaza close to award-winning restaurants and wine tasting. It is on the East side of town with close access to the local original wineries and picnic areas. You can even ride your bikes. If you plan to go to the Napa Valley, you are on your way without going through town traffic.
