This property was great for our short stay in Santa Barbara. Aidan, our property manager did a great job communicating and responded quickly to my questions regarding the property. It is supplied with many travel needs such as shower items, kitchen items, and backyard games. I loved that they had a basket of different balls for our dog. It is perfect for a family staycation.
Property was well appointed, quiet, and very comfortable. Convenient location for ease of travel to Solvang/Santa Ynez Valley as well as Downtown Santa Barbara and the Harbor. Goleta was a pleasant surprise for Amenities (Good Restaurants and Stores). Helpful and commutative host. Easy access to SBA airport.
This is one of the best VRBOs I have stayed in. The pictures don’t do it justice.The living room/kitchen area is amazingly spacious. We were five adults and two children and the bedroom situation was perfect. Plenty of kitchen wares and bathroom towels.The backyard was the perfect spot to relax and soak up some sun.I highly recommend this rental to anyone looking to stay in the Santa Barbara area.
This was a fantastic stay! The place was spotlessly clean and spacious. The location was great, right near the airport and the beach. I’ll definitely be staying again. Just a note: there wasn’t working air conditioning, but the weather was still perfect for leaving the windows open. No ceiling fans but small fans throughout to help circulate .

Thanks Daniel! So glad you guys had a great time and glad we were able to accommodate an early check in for you! Thanks for the note on the AC, many of our homes don't have AC in Santa Barbara but I hope the fans helped. Come back anytime!
House was clean. Record heat in March so no air conditioning and not enough fans (floor fans, no ceiling fans) to cool adequately. No curtains on family room sliding doors to keep sun out and no screens on master bedroom sliding doors to let the heat out. Kitchen basic, enough dishes for one day use. Host responded quickly to provide a crockpot, ironing board and corn hole game as shown in the description. Had a light problem that was quickly fixed and a stove top issue. Only the top outlets worked in several rooms especially rear bedroom with bath but never asked for repair. Quiet neighborhood and a good location to get to the surrounding areas.
My family stayed to celebrate a birthday. The home was beautiful, spacious and in a great location. The backyard was spacious and nice to hang out on the swing bench, or a lawn chair in the evening air. The home is pretty close to the freeway and near grocery, shopping and restaurants. It's also near the zoo and beaches. The owner, Aidan, was awesome. We had a couple of small issues and he made himself available and came by to fix minor drain issue and help us figure out how to work the TVs. We were disappointed the A/C wasn't working during our stay, only because it was especially hot during our visit. There are no curtains in the main bedroom and it has the largest sliding patio window/door. Curtains or blinds would be super appreciated, for both privacy and keeping heat out. Cleanliness was decent, there were a few cobwebs, spiders and a couple of small stains found. I wished there was more kitchenware, i.e. seasonings, filters for coffee maker, baking sheet (for cookies of course :)) and a microwave, not having one made reheating food and coffee challenging. We like to cook and bake, so perhaps we've been spoiled lol. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would definitely book again. We appreciate the hospitality Aidan!
