Great location & wonderful property! The host was very accommodating and the extra special touches are appreciated - coffee, tea & sparkling water are nice to have on hand! Beds and bedding were very comfortable! Extra items offered like fans, flashlights, charging cords, shower caps and more make you feel very at home! Can’t wait to return!

Excellent and responsive hosts. The day after we noted that the driveway was dark at night new lights were installed. The outdoor spaces were lovely and the landscaping brought the outside in on rainy days through the big windows and good lighting.

Excellent property and location

Great friends trip, 2 couples plenty of space. We enjoyed evenings on the patio grilling out and sitting by the fire pit. The outdoor space was fantastic. Morning walks along the ocean and easy walking to downtown were a bonus. Everything was as advertised. Kelly was a treat to deal with, we will be back.

Amazing host in an awesome location

Kelly was one of the best hosts I’ve ever had on VRBO - very proactive, responsive and willing to go the extra mile to make sure our stay was extra special. Her house is in a great location - walking distance to a park with a beach but far enough from the downtown to have nice quiet nights with the kids. 100% would stay here again and recommend you to as well. Thanks Kelly!

This house was great! I would stay at this house again & highly recommend it to others. I have stayed at many VRBO homes throughout the years and this was the best “stocked” house I’ve stayed in from the kitchen to the bathrooms. Extremely clean. The beds were very comfortable with the mattress toppers. The pictures don’t do justice to the wonderful landscaping. Great location and walkable to the water. I have absolutely no complaints about this place..

Perfect spot for family

Home is as beautiful as the pictures. Great beds/linens! Southern CA vibes and comfort. 2 blocks to the coast with great walking options to the harbor. Our family of 5 enjoyed making memories and was the perfect spot to be to celebrate our UCSB graduate. Thoughtful details such as robes and lots of towels and other comfort items throughout the home. The outdoor shower is simply divine! So happy we found this spot. Hosts were very responsive.

Best place to be

We came for a work trip/vaca and really loved Santa Barbara. We were a short walk to the park at the end of the street and took the stairs down to the beach. Santa Barbara was amazing and would recommend it for anyone to visit with nice beaches, walking areas, restraints. The property itself was a nice quiet, spacious getaway for me and my family. We would definitely stay here again.
