Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Imagine your own private mountainside hideaway, where you have exclusive use of a distinctive 1972 estate that radiates Old World charm. Your journey here begins as you ascend the hill, past trailing magenta bougainvillea, picturesque rocks, and cactus to the enchanting villa itself. The estate's wrought-iron gates open, admitting only you and your privileged guests.
- A spacious cliffside stone terrace seems to float above the world, making celebrations here both dramatic and exhilarating. The house itself is a two-story Spanish Revival hacienda, adorned with exquisite Mediterranean-style furnishings and rooms. Around the rear, rock archways lead to a lawn dotted with colorful native blooms, a supremely romantic milieu for wedding ceremonies.
- Make it a true destination getaway with a stay in the Willows Historic Inn, nestled among towering palms just down the hill from the venue. The 17 guest rooms each exude an opulent, Old Hollywood feel, with equally luxurious communal spaces perfect for mingling with loved ones: from the Great Room's high, open-beam ceiling and cozy fireplace to the magnificently fresco-ed Dining Room to the gracious waterfall patio.
