About this property

Bella Vida | Historic Home Steps from Downtown

  • Bring the whole crew together under one roof at Bella Vida, a spacious five-bedroom home just two blocks from Main Street Walla Walla. Whether it’s a weekend with friends, a family gathering or a wine country getaway, there’s room for up to 12 guests to stay together—and downtown is an easy walk from your front door.

    Originally built in 1904, Bella Vida spans three levels and approximately 3,500 square feet, with multiple living spaces that give a larger group plenty of room to gather as well as space to spread out.

    The well-equipped kitchen makes cooking together easy, while the formal dining room gives everyone a seat at the table. After a day of wine tasting or exploring downtown, come home to the living room, settle into the downstairs TV den, or take dinner outside to the private patio.

    And one of Bella Vida’s biggest perks: you can leave the cars behind for the evening. Main Street’s tasting rooms, restaurants, shops and cafés are just two blocks away.

    For a Walla Walla trip where being together is part of the experience, Bella Vida gives your group the space—and the location—to make the most of it.

Girls wine weekend

We appreciated being able to walk to tasting rooms and restaurants downtown so easily. The kitchen was also really well appointed with lots of essentials that made cooking easy. Lots of space to spread out and lots of space to be together. A great stay!

Great house

The house was comfortable and close to downtown. The only complaint was the upstairs master was pretty warm and the downstairs bedrooms. Other than that all the amenities you need for a nice stay.

The place is awesome. So spacious. Very comfortable. I would replace the toilet plunger on floor 1. The toilet only flushes when you hold the handle down for 30 seconds. The porch should be better lit, my guest had trouble making out the steps. You've got some water damage outside the house, fix it soon or it'll be a mess. A really great place, please maintain it, many people will enjoy it.

Absolutely loved it!

My friends and I had a great time and loved the house! I would book Bella Vida again. I have already sent the home to another friend who is looking to go next year. It is close walking distance to Safeway and downtown shops/restaurants and wineries. The home is clean and the rooms are good sized. It was cozy and comfortable. We played games at night at the dining table and had a blast. There were 9 of us who stayed for the weekend. The kitchen is a good size as several of us would be preparing meals in the kitchen. We all look forward to returning next year and booking Bella Vida again!

The listing was accurate. Check in was seamless. I had a question during our stay that was answered immediately. The home is in good repair. My only very small input would be to put some high visibility tape or paint on the stairs from the house to Cherry Street. We have senior citizens in our group.. I recommend this property!

I went with 6 of my girlfriends for a wine tasting trip and the Bella Vida it was the perfect place and location for us. It was very clean with beautiful decorations and bedding, kitchen well-stocked and spacious enough for a few of us to enjoy cooking together. A lot of thoughtful amenities were placed throughout the house. The location was so perfect! We enjoyed the short walk into town for dinner, wine tastings and shopping. The host kept me up to date with my reservation and gave me very useful information on local activities, and replied very quickly when I had a question about the barbecue. We enjoyed the nice town and plan to come back again for another girlfriend trip and stay at the Bella Vida. Absolutely recommend this beautiful, comfy home!

Bella Vida was perfect!!

We stayed at Bella Vida on the weekend of Whitman's graduation. We had a full house of relatives and friends. Bella Vida was the perfect place to entertain and call home. It's well stocked, beautiful and extremely comfortable. When we come to Walla Walla with a group we will definitely try to stay at Bella Vida.

Great house!

Rented this adorable house for a birthday getaway with a group of friends. There were 5 couples and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Great location and walking distance to town. It was clean, well equipped, has comfortable beds and plenty of common areas for us to hang out. We spent a lot of time on the patio and visiting on the front porch. We would book again in a heartbeat.
