  • The villa is absolutely beautiful and provided our family with a most comfortable, spacious and elegant home away from home during our week in Santa Barbara for our daughter's wedding. The fabulous kitchen and outdoor grill made it fun to prepare some meals at home. The incredibly comfortable beds made for a great night's sleep. We appreciated being able to take many of the wedding pictures on the beautifully landscaped property. The two little grandchildren had their fun on the nearby beach. And everything else we needed such as great grocery shopping and access to downtown Santa Barbara and the highway were all very close by. We all just loved everything about the villa and hope to return again someday. Thank-you for giving our family the opportunity to enjoy the beauty and comfort of this home.

  • We rented this house to bring the family together for our daughter's wedding. It could not have been any better! The owners are wonderful, they were pouring wine for the family who arrived ahead of us. The house is gorgeous. Everything is top notch, no expense spared. It is about a mile from the beach which is great because the beach is often fogged in depending what time of year you stay. We had nothing but sun which let us serve breakfast on the patio and a barbeque on the built-in grill. The bedrooms are all huge with plenty of bathrooms. The hot tub and gas fire pit made a great way to end the day. You won't go wrong with this house!

  • I am amazed this beautiful villa is available for vacation rental. Our extended family of 12 used every feature of the house; media room, Viking Bar-b-q, fire pit, hot tub, gourmet kitchen, walked down to the beach. The villa enriched our week long stay in SB. We would absolutely stay in the Villa again.

  • This is one of the most exquisite rentals we have stayed in. The ambiance in this incredibly beautiful Villa made for an exceptional experience. The moment we entered we knew that by the attention to detail that we had made the right choice. We had a wonderful week and enjoyed Santa Barbara and everything that the Villa had to offer. We will be returning this winter and look forward to being in Santa Barbara and our new found treasure to stay in. Thank you Chris for everything, it was fabulous!
