Why the Owner Chose Montecito
We chose this property because it is absolutely amazing!! You cannot find better views in all of Santa Barbara. All 10 acres of the property is meticulously maintained, great vegetation, an has an orchard with over 20 different kinds of fruit. The location is private, yet close to the upper and lower village of Montecito. Santa Barbara and all it has to offer is just minutes away. There is so much to do for all ages and our family loves to come visit. They never want to leave this wonderful paradise that has been a dream come true!!
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
Privacy, total comfort, fresh fruit, natural beauty, or try some yoga!

What a beautiful place! Coffee on the terrace in the morning, hikes in the beautiful Montecito hills, Montecito Cafe for lunch, a quiet glass of wine from a local vineyard, and a good book in the afternoon (and maybe a nap), and then a wonderful dinner at Plow & Angel - that is our perfect day here. (oh yes, and of course an after dinner drink at The Four Seasons!). This is a picturesque place to find peace in an otherwise chaotic life. We look forward to escaping here again someday. Thank you Donna & Kelsey for making our trip so special! Best to you both...

Dear Donna, You have the most beautiful Villa. We felt we were truly back in Italy. Despite the weather, we had a wonderful time. Thank you for your dinner suggestions. The Arigato was awesome! Hope to be back soon. Best regards...

Donna & Kelsey, What a truly wonderful time we had staying in this serene and cozy abode of yours. Opening the shutters at the end of the bed each morning, to looking out onto the early morning sunrise with all the green avocado fields below...to opening up the side french doors to view the expansive sky and blue Pacific Ocean was both memorable & breathtaking! After a day full of exercise, swimming, hiking and eating we looked forward to returning for a glass of wine and watch the magical and colorful sunsets. You were both so helpful, caring and informative. Thank you both for everything and we will be back again soon. Warmly...

Staying in this beautiful villa brought back some great memories of past travels. The flowers, the orchard, and the ocean view. The sunsets were a pleasure to share over a glass of wine. Montecito's climate is perfect for a month long winter vacation for those of us North of the Border, especially when it included a freshly picked tangerine every day! Thank you for all the special touches that made our stay exceptional.

Dear Donna and Jim, Words cannot describe how special our stay at the Villa has been. For this one short week, Kim and I truly have been "living the dream". The views are so magical and the serenity and solitude so spiritual and rejuvenating. Kim and I cannot thank you both enough for allowing us the privilege of experiencing this heaven on earth. We only hope that that we can return sometime in the future. Our brief time here will always be remembered in our hearts. The Villa is by far the most magical and perfectly appointed home we have ever experienced. Best!

My Stay here at the Villa has been a great time, with a five star living experience, in an absolutely beautiful place. The owners are two of the most kind and hospitable people I have met in all of Montecito and the greater Santa Barbara area. I had all the privacy I could ever want, but all the service I needed whenever necessary. This home really is a little slice of heaven, and the refreshment and rejuvenation I have experienced has exceeded my expectations! And, until you actually see the views, and experience a sunrise or sunset from the veranda you haven't experienced anything in all Montecito. I will never stay in one of the luxury hotels again if I can stay her! Thank you for all you did to make my stay perfect! Ron P. 3 months, Laguna Niguel, CA

My husband, our 8 month old daughter and I escaped our busy daily lives this weekend and stayed at the Villa to celebrate our anniversary. It was nothing short of amazing! Donna was so friendly and accommodating, she even gave us some dinner our first night because we were delayed by traffic and arrived later than expected. The views and grounds are fantastic, and the fireplace is so inviting and cozy! Our favorite part of the trip was sitting outside the villa enjoying our morning coffee with the breathtaking views listening to the birds and feeling the ocean breeze. The villa is close enough to get down into town within 5 minutes for shops, restaurants, or 10-15 min into downtown Santa Barbara so it was nice to take little trips into town but be back to catch the sunsets with ease. We hope to be able to return soon!
