We stayed here in Nov of 2011. So fabulous. Clean, Clean, Clean!!!!! Comfy beds, a fabulous well stocked gourmet kitchen, fountains everywhere and a wonderful outdoor living space including a fire pit and hot tub. We loved it because our small dog could accompany us on this vacation. You can walk to the beach or to downtown Montecito. A short drive to downtown Santa Barbara. This is truly an oasis. Sip a glass of wine outside by the fountain for me! Cannot wait to return

Lynn, A huge thank you to you and your husband for your hospitality. Everyone absolutely loved your beautiful home. It was elegant and warm without being pretentious. And was a wonderful place to come back to after our days of walking the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. We raised over $11,000 for the cause and walked our hearts out! The beds were so comfortable and a lovely place to rest our weary and tired muscles. The back patio was a true Italian oasis and was perfect for our nights of BBQ Shrimp, Chicken and Ribs that our husbands made for us at the end of the day. We will all recommend your home to all our friends as THE place to stay in Montecito.

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful casa with us this past week. We have taken great delight in all the wonderful amenities your home provides. The gourmet kitchen (my dream kitchen!), the hot tub, firepit, and fireplaces (so relaxing!), and perhaps most of all, the enchanting garden all add up to a very pleasurable vacation experience! My mother also asked that I comment on how much we apprciaited the cleanliness of your casa - - We have stayed in several vacation homes over the years, and it is rare to find one that meets her exceedingly high cleanliness standards! Many thanks again for sharing this charming and peaceful oasis with us - - We are returning to San Francisco feeling relaxed and replenished!
