The space itself is beautiful, and the team was incredibly easy to work with. In the week or two leading up to the wedding, I probably called them 7+ times to coordinate payment, ask questions, make last-minute adjustments, and even upgrade our bar package. Every single time, they were kind, patient, and genuinely willing to help us make everything happen. That flexibility made such a difference, especially during such a hectic period. They were also very accommodating with my family and made the entire process feel much easier than it could have been. And I LOVE that events can go until midnight. We absolutely shut down the dance floor, and having that full evening for the reception was such a huge plus. Overall, Villa Ragusa was a beautiful, practical, and affordable option for a large Bay Area wedding, and the team was wonderful to work with. Highly recommend both the venue and the staff.

From the outside it looks like it's straight out of a storybook, like Goldilocks & the 3 Bears. They offer tours Friday-Sundays and our group of 4 adults + 2 kids (ages 10 & 15) had so much fun! Esther was our tour guide and she was excellent! She really knew everything there is to know about this unique 1925 English Tudor-style house (turned museum), the fascinating history of the Ainsley family, and even the details of all the impressively preserved original furnishings, decor, appliances, and even some of the fashion from that era. It was so cool to see what life was like in those days! The outside courtyard/garden can even be booked for special events and weddings. There's a visitor's center and gift shop as well. Overall just a fun and interesting peek back in time, while also learning about an important part of Campbell's history. Big thank you to Esther!

The store is a little smaller than I thought (you can see the whole store right when you enter), and the prices were steeper that I thought (ie, tiny enamel pins are $12 and $16!) -- so after such a long drive to get there, I didn't end up buying anything, which is very OFF BRAND of me! Momstera Lounge is at the end of the little downtown, so it was fun to walk around and made the most of our long drive. The store is super cute though, and if I lived closer, I'd probably check out one of their classes.

Birthday girl had a great time exploring, playing and eating. The team were so easy to work with from the email correspondence on my Cinnamoroll themed table vision to day of set up. The staff were super quick & accommodating when they were assisting me with the set up. They helped me string up and put a HBD banner and set up my little one's high chair and way more like help bring stuff in, stock the drink fridge, set out the pastries, etc. They just knew what to do & did it straight away. I was amazed by the speed and professionalism! If only I had this level of set up at every birthday party. Barely any dictation or answering questions was needed. What a hugeeee lift off the mental load! There's a dedicated drink fridge in front of the register that kept our drinks chilled and easy for guests to grab. The food table is nice and long so it held a lot of food & we had A LOTT of food. We opted for the photo package too which was nice because usually being the host means you're too busy to take photos and get photos taken of your family. Overall, I highly recommend this place for your little one's special event! I only wish that this place was bigger so that we could invite more friends to our event. However, being smaller means more intimate events and those who are invited should feel super blessed and lucky to have made the cut!

Our group ranged from 11 months to just over 2 years old, and there were plenty of suitable toys for our age group. There were plenty of toys to go around that the kids were not trying to take things from one another. I think if they put a fresh coat of paint on things or maybe invested in some newer toys this place would be 5 stars. With that being said, even in its current state it's still worthwhile coming if you have small children!

The lighting was incredible for a day time baby shower and because they have so many cute plants set up, there wasn't too much that needed to be done as far as decorating goes. All of my guests thought the venue was absolutely adorable. I can't recommend this place enough. It was super affordable had enough parking for all 30 of my guests and clean!

I drove 45 minutes to Hakone Gardens recently at the end of March and found out that most of the cherry blossoms were gone. I was like whaaaa....I usually go during the end of March and they would be in full bloom. Apparently, they bloomed earlier this year. I was looking forward to seeing the wonderful pink color all around. Anyways, Hakone is still a treat to walk around and is very nice when the flowers are blooming. I love sitting near the beginning of the trail and looking at the ponds, bridge, koi fish and all the trees. It transports me to Japan without the airfare and passport. Parking can be difficult on busy days and will be waiting for awhile for someone to leave. Gift shop is cute and there are many cute finds in there. Admission is now $12 but parking is still free.
