2 Bedroom House in The Villas, San Jose

Welcome to Santana Row Garden Retreat, a rare private oasis in the heart of Silicon Valley — where resort-style tranquility meets the vibrant energy of Santana Row and Westfield Valley Fair.
This beautifully designed two-bedroom, two-bath residence (approx. 1,008 sq ft) occupies the entire rear portion of the property and offers guests a completely private experience, including a gated garden entrance and smart-lock self check-in.
Whether you’re visiting for business, medical care, relocation, shopping, or a special getaway, this home provides the perfect balance of comfort, privacy, and location.
A Rare Living Garden Experience
What truly makes this home unforgettable is its immersive living garden design — something almost impossible to find in an urban setting.
Guests are surrounded by:
• A serene koi pond with cascading waterfall
• Towering bamboo forest that creates privacy and natural beauty
• Two dramatic vertical succulent gardens
– One visible directly from the kitchen
– One stunning 20-foot x 8-foot living wall facing the main deck
• Lush potted plants and landscaped garden pathways
The large outdoor deck features a four-chair wrought-iron dining set, perfect for enjoying breakfast, coffee, wine, or dinner while listening to the gentle sound of flowing water and enjoying the greenery.
Many guests say it feels like staying in a private spa or boutique resort, hidden inside one of Silicon Valley’s most exciting neighborhoods.

Privacy and Easy Self Check-In
Guests enter through a private garden gate and smart-lock door, providing secure, keyless self check-in and complete privacy throughout the stay. The garden suite, decks, and outdoor areas are exclusively for guests.
