About this property

Italian Ocean-View Estate | Sauna + Hot Tub

An Italian-inspired ocean-view estate in Santa Barbara with a private barrel sauna, jacuzzi, and elevator 4 bedrooms sleeping 9, minutes from Mesa Lane Beach and downtown. Walking in feels like arriving at a villa on the Amalfi coast that somehow landed above the American Riviera: arched doorways frame slices of blue water, hand-laid tilework catches the afternoon light, and warm wood tones make even the grandest rooms feel like home. It s the house your group will still be talking about a year later equal parts architecture, ocean, and spa.

THE SPACE. The upper level is one grand, open sweep: living room, dining space, and a chef s kitchen flowing together under ocean views, with a dedicated game room for late-night tournaments. All four bedrooms sit on the first floor a smart layout that gives every couple quiet and keeps the party upstairs. Between floors, take the sculptural spiral staircase or, yes, the private elevator. Outside, the spa program begins: a brand-new two-person barrel sauna and a private jacuzzi set against the sea air.

WELLNESS HERE. This is a genuine heat-therapy house: sauna sessions in the barrel, a soak under the stars in the jacuzzi, then red light therapy and yoga mats inside for recovery and movement. Sauna, soak, sleep repeat until restored.

THE LOCATION. On Santa Barbara s Mesa, minutes to Mesa Lane Beach s famous stairs, downtown Santa Barbara, and Montecito. A family-oriented neighborhood quiet hours from 9 PM keep the evenings peaceful.

DISCLOSURES: No smoking (strictly enforced). Fireplace is not available for guest use. Central heating is available; no AC—natural ocean breezes, solar vents, and fans are provided. Family-oriented neighborhood; quiet hours begin at 9pm. Pets are not allowed on furniture. Please use the elevator with care. Failure to comply may result in additional charges or removal from the home.

This place is amazing. It really feels like you're in Italy. The kitchen and balcony are amazing if you are going to host a dinner. The shower in the master bed room is a thumbs up!

This home was the perfect place for our annual sorority reunion. Enough space for us all 60 something gals to enjoy one another and have private space. The bedrooms are all on the ground floor, the common area upstairs is spacious enough for all 8 of us to gather and dine. The ocean views are very nice.

The house was perfect for entertaining a large group. There was plenty of space for everyone to gather comfortably, and the views of the ocean were absolutely beautiful. We also loved how easy it was to walk down and access the beach. Overall, it was a great place to stay and we’d definitely come back

We have a fantastic time in the Villa! My only comment is to say the listing should state 3 1/2 bathrooms instead of 4, and 2 of the king bedrooms share a "Jack & Jill" bathroom which isn't the ultimate situation for 2 adult couples. The bedroom with the 3 twin beds has a separate bathroom with tub and the master suite is top notch in every respect. The wine cooler, sauna & hot tub were nice amenities, but they were not operable. But that being said we had a fabulous visit celebrating my 80th birthday with my family! I highly recommend this property!

The place was great for our family to hang out and spend time together. The kitchen was idea for a big group of people and many chefs (:Beds and couches were all comfy.The shower situation was the main reason we knocked off a star. There are only two showers and one bathtub. We had a big group of people and it added an extra layer of planning. There's a tub, but no way of attaching the water sprayer to the wall or above useless for a practical shower...Also the espresso machine did not work. It just needed a descale and a little TLC... But I'm on vacation..The host was responsive to all of our needs and make sure we were taken care of within the hour. All in all, a great place to stay.

This property is in a great location with beautiful views. Unfortunately we were 3 couples coming up for a wedding in Santa Barbara. The host advertises this place as 4 bedrooms and 4 baths and no further details. We were shocked to find out there were only 2 bathrooms with showers and a bathroom with a bathtub only and one powder room. This is a place that sleeps 9, so you should be aware of the shower situation. There is a jack and jill bathroom separating 2 of the bedrooms. Unfortunately the wood sliding door did not close. We had 3 strong guys and could not get the bathroom door closed. This now meant we could not share the bathroom and my husband and I ended up in the bedroom with 3 twin beds and a bathroom with a tub only.When I reached out to the host he said nothing is broken maybe the cleaning crew damaged the door he also apologized for misrepresenting or not including the detail on the showers.I have stayed at VRBO’s for over 10 years all over the world and never want to give a bad rating to a host however he came back with a video stating nothing was wrong with the door insinuating we are lying. This was not ok, 6 of us did not make up that the door was clearly broken. He must have fixed it and then sent the video. This is the first low rating I have ever given as the description and pictures were dated and misleading. The couches are old and covered with a blanket. Even as I review the listing now says 4 bathrooms soap towels provided bathtub or shower.

Hi Cathy, I’m very sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay with us. This is our first low rating review on this home and we’re truly disheartened. This home is a 4bd/3.5bth and as I mentioned in our conversations we were not able to list half baths until just recently. We did a full walk through inspection directly after your departure and were able to close the doors to the bathroom as you mentioned. I am not sure what happened during your stay but we do believe you had an issue and is why we made the decision to provide a credit to your stay. I hope sometime you come back to the SB area we can provide a new lovely stay for you. Thank you!
