About this property

Villa Bella elegant family retreat in downtown Bentonville

Villa Bella is the ideal escape for family, friends, or cyclist groups. Located just a 4 minute bike ride or a pleasant 15 minute walk from the Bentonville Square, the beautiful private home has access to all of the best activities in Bentonville, Arkansas.

Enjoy Bentonville's best restaurants on the square, Walmart 5 and dime museum, Crystal Bridges legendary walking, hiking, and biking trails, and even the Bentonville farmer's market all within a 3 minute drive of Villa Bella.

Villa Bella's access to downtown Bentonville isn't all it offers, though. We've equipped this short term rental's fenced-in backyard with a private hot tub, basketball hoop, romantic swing for two, and a Pergola complete with a grill, seating area, and propane fireplace. This beautiful backyard is the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing meal with family or friends.

Inside, we've included a game room with classic TV Arcade games and a pool table, and the garage is set up for an adult poker night too. There is a dedicated workspace, and a large clean kitchen with brand new appliances and everything you need to cook for the whole family. The clean bathrooms and bedrooms are spacious and come equipped with high quality linens and towels.

The home has high speed internet access, and a smart TV with Hulu, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and more streaming apps. We've included four bikes for you to enjoy while you stay, as well. The romantic backyard in the evening light makes a great spot to getaway within your getaway. Whether you want to stay in and enjoy a quiet stay, or get out and see everything that made Bentonville legendary, this is the place for you and the whole family.

Giraffe home

The house was as described. There is plenty to do here to entertain yourself between the hot tub, patio, fireplace, sauna (1person), pool table, pingpong, & arcade games. The location was great very close to the mountain bike trails. You can walk to downtown in about 15 minutes. This house had the nicest cookware of anywhere I have ever stayed. The furniture inside and out is quite comfortable and the beds are nice. It's great to have a little garage space to put the bikes in overnight. The street is little busy in the morning. I would love to know the story behind all the giraffes.

Great amenities + yard

The weekend we stayed it was more rainy than not. The sauna, massage chair & hot tub were so great! We planned to be on our bikes most of the time but the weather changed that. Thank goodness we had this house and the large yard with coverage from the rain.

Backyard Patio Was Best

We avoided the rush of downtown restaurants by enjoying the backyard patio with grill, lights, a fire and hot tub. Best place we've stayed in for just relaxing after a day of riding!

Great place for the family, close to Slaughter Pen Trails.

A great place. A short bike ride to downtown and to multiple trailheads. The game room, outdoor living, and hot tub were great. Rain or shine, this is a great place for the family!

This was such a beautiful place to stay! Me and the kids had a great time biking, with access to the All American Heroes bike trail. That's what brought us to Bentonville, AR. This place was SO close that we could have walked to the trail. It was such a great ride. My mom and dad enjoyed the quiet home while me and kids enjoyed the surrounding area. I just loved this spot. Great location close to everything. The host was super nice and responded quickly. This was a great trip and I would definitely stay here again. We loved having the hot tub in the evenings too.

loved!!

absolutely loved this place! backyard is awesome (we loved the hot tub, fire pit, and basketball court) , basement with games (arcade, pool, pin ball, and cards) was so much fun. Great space for lots of people. super clean and well kept, very cute furnishings in the house and high end fixtures. also a great neighborhood& proximity to downtown bentonville. Only criticism is the code was not set to what was instructed to check in with, but the owner answered immediately when called and fixed it. and the sinks do not drain well automatically, you have to press the stopper to drain water. And only 1 working bike out of the four

Nice house, unreachable hosts

This is a nice house with a great backyard for entertaining and family entertainment. It is well appointed with everything you will need. The game rooms are smaller than they look and in a basement area. Our only problems were when we needed to reach the hosts/owners. The key code was not correctly programmed when we arrived (another review noted this), and it took 45 minutes of phone calls, booking app messages, and finally a phone call to VRBO for the hosts to correctly program the lock. Everything in the house was great that weekend, until after we left one of our party realized that they left their AirPods in one of the rooms. They could see on the FindMy Apple app that the pods were at the property. We tried multiple times to contact the hosts, including a confirmation from VRBO that they had contacted the hosts' other number to leave a message that we would gladly pay for shipping the items to us. We really enjoyed the property, but considering the lack of service we will probably look elsewhere for our next Bentonville trip.

Why they chose this property

Villa Bella was purchased with the family and friends in mind. This location was selected for it's proximity to downtown Bentonville. We wanted to create a space that could be an intimate getaway, without sacrificing access to the city and what it has to offer. You can enjoy a pleasant 15 minute walk or 4 minute bike ride to the Bentonville square. The square has everything from Onyx coffee and iconic restaurants, to the Bentonville farmer's market and the a free splash pad. If you want to extend your walk or ride, you can pass through the square to Crystal Bridge's compton gardens walking trails, lined with rare plants, a gorgeous creek, and outdoor art. Don't worry, for the cyclists there are also dirt off road trails. The Crystal Bridges indoor art Museum, The Amazeum kids museum, atrium, and Museum of Native American History, Walmart Museum and more are all within a less than 15 minute drive from Villa Bella. This is truly the ideal place to enjoy everything that made Bentonville famous.

After selecting this house, we remolded the inside to include a brand new kitchen with updated appliances, remolded bathroom features, and big beds with high quality mattresses. Sleep is key to a good vacation, so all of the linens are the highest quality as well. In the backyard, we added a hot tub that can be enjoyed any time of year, a swing for two, and basketball hoop for fun. We also added a Pergola and filled it with a brand new propane grill, an out door table and stools, and comfortable all weather furniture around our stunning propane firepit. Don't miss the beautiful wood-burned weathervane in the floor! The game room has classic Nintendo arcade games and a pool table, and the garage is all set up for poker night. There are bikes on the porch for use during your stay. We hope you and your family enjoy Villa Bella as much a we enjoyed creating this space for you.
