Beautiful house and yard! Loved it.

We had a wonderful stay at this house. It is quiet, and the yard is so nice. The house is nicely decorated and bright and sunny. I definitely give this house five stars.

Great Santa Barbara getaway

This was a really beautiful Santa Barbara property, close to both the beach and downtown. A wonderful location with a lot of great living space and a kitchen with a lot of supplies for cooking. The outdoor area was beautiful, with a fire pit and a patio for dining. Great sleeping arrangements for a family with kids. The check-in and check-out process was smooth and easy. Would definitely visit again.

Graduation weekend

Our son and my husband’s parents came to SB to celebrate our daughter’s UCSB graduation and the house was perfect. It is exactly as pictured in the listing. The beds and linens are lovely and the kitchen is well equipped. The back yard is also wonderful with a fire pit and also a shaded dining area. One of the best vacation rentals we have stayed in - would highly recommend!!

Fantastic property for our family vacation. Communication was prompt. We needed another tank of gas for the barbecue and they took care of it right away. The location can’t be beat-close to the beach and amenities. Everything at the property was high end from Egyptian cotton towels to organic spices, this place came with everything we could need. Would stay here again.
