This cute little house is even better in person. It was so comfortable and adorable. It has a great backyard with multiple sitting areas. We walked all over town from the house. It’s in a great location, close to everything…beach, restaurants and shopping. I would definitely recommend staying here and will stay again if I’m back in SB in the future!

We truly enjoyed our stay in the lovely 2 bedroom and 1 bathroom cottage. The location can’t be beat as you’re close to everything that Santa Barbara has to offer. The full kitchen, lovely living/dining area, and backyard space were our favorite spots. Our daughter picked oranges, we walked up & down State St, walked to the wharf, walked to the beaches, walked to the playgrounds, and happened upon the Summer Solstice parade & festival! Truly an enjoyable stay with easy to use temperature controls & A/C. Nighttime movies, World Cup Games, and watching shows was easy on the smart TV with handy HDMI access. While this was a pricey stay for us, it was worth it due to the ease of access to everything Santa Barbara has to offer & the lovely appointed home. We’ll most likely be back at some point in the coming years
