Another great stay at Butterfly beach House

This was our 2nd stay at the Butterfly Beach House. Like our first stay, the home was perfect for our family. Butterfly Beach House is comfortable and you can't beat the location with easy access to the Butterfly Beach and the shops/restaurants in Montecito.
