We had a delightful stay. The only misleading statement was proximity to the beach and I would say it is more like a 2 block walk to the beach. The beach is mainly rocks; I recommend Summerland Beach which is about 1 mile away and is wonderful. We love the area and enjoyed Whale Watching along with shopping too. Quiet and peaceful. Restaurants we have loved for years include Cava, Piatti's, Lucky's, Giovanni's Pizza, The Harbor House (Stearns Wharf).

Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

(Transcribed from the Guest Book at the home)NOOOOO!!! We don’t want to go home!!!! This has been a truly wonderful 8 days. It reminds me of the summers I spent in the Hamptons, NY. - So peaceful and so much to do. Your cottage is wonderful – we love every design detail you have put in. We feel as though we have discovered an amazing secret – one that we will definitely be returning to. Thank you for sharing your beautiful cottage with us – it has been our home away from home and we really enjoyed ourselves. Be back soon!!!

(transcribed from the Guest Book at the property) Our week at The Seashell Cottage has flown by, proving we truly enjoyed our stay! The cottage was the perfect spot for my husband and I to introduce our children to Santa Barbara (one of our favorite spots). We loved the feel of a true beach cottage mixed with all of life's modern amenities. I hope we will be back next year!!

(transcribed from Guest Book at the home) Thanks very much! We've been enjoying peaceful surroundings and cozy home for last four nights. My wife and her parents came from South Korea and could spend so wonderful vacation here. They felt like they are at home. For me, as a resident in Goleta, this home was a rediscovery about how this area is so good. Best wishes for your life in business

(transcribed from the guest book at the home) We were really fortunate to find Seashell Cottage! I appreciate the time, energy, and thought you put into the quality and maintenance of the cottage. We love the creek and the deck, as well as the proximity to two completely different beaches. We have had a great month, and I don't think it would have been nearly as good if we had stayed somewhere else. We look forward to returning.

(transcribed from the Guest Book at the home) We had a great stay here in your lovely Montecito cottage - thank you! You've done an excellent job; this place is adorable. The attention to detail for your guests goes well beyond a well-run business. It seems very thoughtful; as if we were staying with a good friend who anticipated our needs and went all-out to make us comfortable. Thanks again,
