My siblings and I do an annual trip to Santa Barbara with our kids to visit our Dad for his birthday. Over the years we have rented various houses for our family. Tesoro was by far the best house we have rented in the area. The host was incredible. Always available to answer questions. The house is immaculate and very well appointed. The bunk bed room was perfect for our kids to share. The ocean views from the house are spectacular. I cannot recommend this house highly enough!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
We booked the home for a 50th birthday celebration of experienced nursing professionals who have known each for decades (party of 7). Positives: There was lots of communication. The house itself is beautiful and decorated in elegance. Opportunities: The listing omitted that there is an upstairs area that cannot be accessed and houses the owners. The owner contacted me several times about taking care of home like it’s ours and a noice disturbance but the night she spoke about we were sitting indoors which impacted my enjoyment at the property, even the property heavily advertises outdoor living spaces. Again, the rules should clearly articulate that the home is nestled in a quiet bedroom community and has strict noise ordinances with times, I even shared that it may not be most ideal property to list on VRBO. Lastly, the owner sent me a picture of the pile of towels and linens which she clearly instructed us to pull prior to us leaving. She asked me how many people came because we used too much. There was an issue with the string for a blind which I told her and paid for the damage.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts in your review. The guest was very nice and paid for the damage that was incurred.
I'd like to provide some additional context regarding the stay. On the first night, I was notified that two neighbors had formally reported excessive noise. It is a quiet neighborhood. Because the home is perched on a hillside, sound carries much farther than many guests expect. For that reason, I make every effort to inform guests about the Santa Barbara noise ordinance, which is clearly outlined in the house information, on the property website, and in the signed rental agreement. My goal is simply to help ensure a positive experience for both guests and neighbors.
Regarding the linens, I keep a complete second set of sheets for the bunk bedroom to allow for quick turnovers between guests. During this stay, many extra sets of sheets had been used, so I simply asked for clarification.
The upstairs owner's bedroom is clearly identified in the listing as unavailable to guests and remains locked during every stay. This is disclosed in the listing before booking.
I wish Najeeba well.
This house has great space both inside and out! The owner was so helpful - had tons of recommendations and made check in and check out so easy! We had a wonderful stay!
We had a lovely stay and felt very at home! Kristin was easy to communicate with and very responsible. Will definitely stay again! The views and her succulent gardens are amazing!

Thank you so much for allowing me to host your family. Can’t wait to host you again.
Such a perfect place to get away from it all; the outdoor space is amazing (succulent envy). Kristin's itinerary tips were very helpful and she was such a responsive host.
Four sisters convened in Summerland for a reunion. This home has striking views and provides all the necessities for a spectacular stay. Great location with close access to wine tasting in Ojai, dining in Santa Barbara, and lovely shops in walkable Summerland.

Thanks for your lovely review. I hope to have your sisters back. 😀
We couldn’t have picked a better location or home for our family stay from the Pacific NW. The shops in Summerland and beach were a short walk and downtown Santa Barbara a short drive. Loved the outdoor space. Highly recommend!

Thanks for being such a great guest. HOpe to host you again soon.
The house was a perfect addition to a girls weekend.
The views were amazing, the neighborhood was quiet and very safe. The Main Street was like a scene out of a movie. The house was cozy and spacious. It was just tge cherry on top of a great weekend get away with friends.
The home served as a good location for us to have a family vacation around Santa Barbara. There is a nice playground for young kids at the bottom of the hill and across the freeway that really helped us get their wiggles out.

Roll out the carpet for this fsmily. Super easy guests. Left the house in great shape.
Lovely Summerland home with sweeping oceans views to the Channel Islands. We were there with family and loved the house, neighborhood and views. Easy access to Santa Barbara and the wine country. Kristin made the whole process seamless. We plan on returning next year.
We had a great stay in Santa Barbara and Kristin’s house was perfect for our family of 6. The house was clean, had a great view, and her garden was absolutely beautiful. Downtown summerland was about a 5-10 minute walk from the house (we had coffee every morning downtown :) . Thanks for hosting us and we will be back!
Kristin is a great host. She provides an excellent information packet and is quick to answer any questions. Her home is exceptionally clean and the artwork and furnishings are top notch. Like staying at the Ritz, except better, with views of the mountains and ocean.

Thank you so much for choosing my home. I hope you return.
Charming, beautifully decorated home with GORGEOUS view and tons of amenities! Lovely outdoor space with grassy area, beautiful flowers and trees, and loads of places to sit and enjoy the view. Excellent communication from host and very accommodating. Welcome letter and instructions were super clear. Super easy access to beach and restaurants. Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful stay here. Kristin was a great host, always very responsive. The property has one of the best yards and views of any VRBO we have ever stayed in. The house is well appointed with all the necessities including a pack ‘n play for our 10 month old grandson. It was in easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants in Summerland, and a short drive to Montecito and Santa Barbara. I highly recommend.

Thank you for your great review. Appreciate you being a great guest. : )
This is a lovely property in a cute, quiet, and safe town right next to Montecito and Santa Barbara. The house is spacious and very comfortable, artfully decorated, and super clean. Kristin was a thoughtful host, filling the house with amenities and thinking about all of the details. It also was very easy to communicate with her. Thank you for a great stay!
Our stay at Kristin’s home was wonderful. The location was perfect. A short drive to Santa Barbara and a quick walk to charming downtown Summerland. The home was beautiful and clearly very well taken care of. The television in the living room wasn’t working properly when we arrived, and Kristin was right on top of it and had us working to resolve the issue quickly. The toddlers we were with loved the bunk room as well!

Fun in Santa Barbara
Kristin has a great property in Summerland. I was worried it might be a little far south of Santa Barbara proper but the location is great. The neighborhood is very quiet and near the little town center and only a short distance to Monticito & SB. The ocean view is beautiful and the house is well appointed and comfortable. Kristin was very responsive and accommodating, Highly recommend for a Santa Barbara adventure...

Amazing Santa Barbara Getaway
This house and property is amazing and so beautiful! Words really can't describe how breath-taking the ocean view is. The house is modern, comfy, and overall makes you feel like you are in a private resort! It has everything you could ever need. My girlfriends and I rented this house for a birthday weekend getaway, and it make all the difference from being in a hotel. The location is central and extremely easy to find. I can't wait to visit again and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing and awesome experience!!!

About the host
Hosted by Kristin Elise Eberwein
Born and raised in the Bay Area, our family is a 4th-generation Californian. We are a Christian family, involved with our church and community, and we have young adults who keep us going at a rigorous pace... We push ourselves and our kids to excel in our work, so we cherish our vacation time together, when we can put obligations aside and just eat, sleep, and laugh.
Why they chose this property
We are a Northern California extended family with ties to the Santa Barbara area. We found this perfect spot in Summerland, so we jumped in. This property is unusually large for the area...1/3 of an acre, so we think we're pretty lucky to have it. We get down here quite often, and our family converges here for easy days and nights. Our mother grew up in Orange, where her father owned and ran the local grocery store, Thompson's Market. She's not here any more, but we know she loves that we have a place in her beloved SoCal. She would really LOVE just sitting on the patio with a cup of tea and the ocean...
What makes this property unique
As mentioned in the description, this place just feels good. It has a kind of serenity that is hard to find, and you can feel it when you walk in. I think the high ceilings combined with warm, comfortable furnishings give you an ensconced feeling: that you are safe and sound. It also feels very private, as there are really no spots where neighbors are nearby looking in. It's an oasis. With an ocean view. Can't beat that.
