Perfect Weekend
This was our second visit to Anavo Farms and we can’t wait to visit again! I celebrated my birthday here amongst the beauty and serenity of the farm and all of its’ inhabitants. Jenn is the perfect host and made us feel totally at home. So many cozy touches, a welcoming bottle of wine and an assortment of goodies including delicious cheese and farm fresh eggs. We enjoyed watching the animals in the pasture while having our morning coffee. There’s even food to feed them … so much fun. Close to Ballard, Los Olivos and many wineries. This is a very special place and we look forward to our next stay. Thanks again for everything Jenn!

Los Olivos Christmas stay
We had a lovely three night stay in the Farmhouse. Everything there has style and comfort…with plenty of room for sleeping, relaxing and eating. We liked seeing the sheep, llama, dogs and cat.Jen was quick to respond. We will definitely come back a

Our new favorite spot
The short version is this: Everything positive that other visitors have said about Anavo Farm is true, and then some. It's beautiful, inviting, well appointed, quiet and private and thoughtfully designed, even more gorgeous than the pictures. But more then anything else, both my husband and I felt like our hosts really just wanted us to feel taken care of. From the variety of snacks waiting for us in the kitchen, to the thoughtful guidebook with tons of local recommendations, to the bathroom that had anything that we might have forgotten at home. At every turn, this marvelous place made us feel well taken care of. We've travelled all over the world, and accordingly rented endless lovely apartment. But it's the care and consideration put into Anavo Farms that makes this our new favorite spot.

Great farmhouse stay
Really loved this converted three-car garage into a two-story apartment - the decor and farmhouse appointments were really nice and we loved the natural light and brightness on the upper level especially. Also liked the outdoor spaces and all the views were spectacular. Great location for wine tasting and close to Solvang and Los Olivos restaurants.

It was exactly as we expected. Beautiful and quiet. Well stocked. My favorite part was the horses just outside your window. Amazing!

Wonderful place
This adorable, quiet retreat was just as described in the listing. Everything was perfect, from the lovely grounds, the views, the quaint and extremely well-appointed property, and the thoughtful attention to detail. Jen is a delightful host who communicated exceptionally well throughout my stay. I loved staying here and would love to return.
