  • Our family, (myself and my husband along with two of our children and their spouses), stayed in this gorgeous home while attending our son's wedding festivities in Santa Barbara and Montecito in mid-May. The reception was held at the Four Seasons Biltmore nearby and we hoped for something more relaxing and comfortable than hotel rooms. The beach house far exceeded our expectations, and it is very spacious and brighter and even more cheerful than it appears on the rental website! The owner knew that we had a very long travel day and she left us the makings for a "Welcome!" snack/cocktail party, which was much appreciated when we finally arrived! She was also of great assistance in regards to restaurant recommendations and hair salon appts, as we were unfamiliar with the area. We walked to the beach, Starbucks, and grocery, and everything else was only a short drive, and there is a lot to see and do! Very clean and well-maintained home and grounds, plenty of fluffy towels, comfy beds... I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay!!! :)

  • My family stayed in this stunning gated home while attending a wedding in Santa Barbara. The home is incredibly charming and comfortable and the beautiful grounds and pool provided plenty of places for relaxation and quiet. The kitchen, large airy dining room, and spacious living room provided coziness and allowed us to unwind in style. Each bedroom was very spacious, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated. The outdoor area was perfect for everything: entertaining friends with cocktail hour, floating in the pool, reading a book in one of the many comfortable chairs, or relaxing in the hammock! The house is within walking distance to the beach, various delightful restaurants, grocery stores, Starbucks, etc. and a short scenic drive to downtown Santa Barbara. Sandra assisted us with exceptional restaurant, activity, and salon recommendations. When our stay was over, it was very hard to leave and we can’t wait to return! I can’t imagine a better experience for our trip.

  • I just returned to new york only to compare everything with montecito. I stayed for the month of august in this lovely home with my husband and two sons. i dont know if anyone is really interested in why our vacation was wonderful, but i can share plenty of advice on how to make your vacation in this house wonderful. the owner makes you feel as if the house she is giving you is a gift, once you are there, you would understand that it is . she hands over the keys to what has been a labor of love for her and it is now a gift to whomever stays there! the location of this house is priceless, whether you are off to the beach, coast village shops or restaurants are all a few steps away . if you choose not to leave the house, you have all that could ever want. outdoor nooks to read quietly, a pool to swim, and a great entertaining space that lights up so charming. the grounds are maintained impeccably! flowers are always in bloom . needless to say i love it here. i love the owner who tries to make your stay even better. i hope to return in august!

  • We had the greatest time at this house. Everything was bueatiful, especially the gardens. We had a family party that couldn't have been nicer. Everything we needed was at our disposal. The house itself is literally a block from the beach and bike/walking paths. So perfect! Can't wait to come back. Thanks!

  • This property is unlike anything else, there is no other way to describe it! Walk through the doorway and you will enter another world. The landscaping is magnificent, the decor is charming, the feeling of peace is unmistakable. The house is so relaxing that it is almost unnecessary to leave, even to explore the quaint shops in the neighborhood or fantastic dining. If I could stay here every weekend I would! Thank you for your hospitality!!!

  • I wish I could live here! This wonderful property is a little piece of Heaven. Secure & safe but so close to great restaurants and shopping. The sunset walks on the beach with my dog were awesome too. The owner has really succeeded in making this "your home away from home." ~D

  • My husband and I recently stayed here and we loved it! So much to do and everything is within walking distance. The house is absolutely beautiful,charming yet not overstated and feels like you are in heart of the French wine country. It is within walking distance from one the most gorgeous private beaches in Santa Barbara. I highly recommend this rental as this will be our "special" anniversary rental for years to come.
