This property is located in a perfect spot just 5 minutes walking to the beach , the funk zone and plenty of restaurants and shopping. Also right near the Amtrak station you can walk from the train to the house. We literally arrived, parked our car and didn’t have to drive anywhere. The home was well appointed with anything you could ask for. Very nice linens on the beds and fluffy, soft bath towels. It happened to be a really hot weekend in Santa Barbara so the only drawback was the house was pretty hot. There were plenty of fans and a portable AC unit but it didn’t cool off much at night. However after sharing my feedback with the host, she informed me that she has ordered 3 more portable AC units. The host was very nice and communicative. Would highly recommend this jewel of a property.

A great house located in a walkable location in SB. Our group loved the hot tub and bikes provided to get around the city. Once we parked our car on arrival, we didn’t need to get back into it until check out! The house was comfortable for our group of 6. The shared space was spacious and it was a plus that each room had a bathroom. We would definitely stay here again!

The house was super comfortable and very well-located within Santa Barbara (we walked everywhere!). We enjoyed staying here over the holidays and would also recommend Zoo Lights at the Santa Barbara Zoo if it’s happening during your visit.

We had a terrific time in Santa Barbara for our son’s wedding. This house is super close to the many venues in the Funk Zone, the beach and the train station stop which is perfect if you do not want to have a vehicle.

House was great! Had everything we needed for our quick weekend in Santa Barbara. Perfect location and was setup very nicely for our 6 guests! Only thing we didn't realize beforehand was the home does not have air conditioning, but weather was great during our trip, so it was not an issue for us!
