About this property

Tranquil Private Resort Home in Paradise

This magnificent 1 acre estate is a fully walled private zen garden complete with a koi pond and a beautiful pool with a surrounding outdoor kitchen, barbecue, bar and fireplace. This Spanish style villa has 6 spacious bedrooms including two very large Master bedrooms, 7 spa quality bathrooms so every bedroom has it's own attached bathroom. We have a large gourmet kitchen with a butlers pantry and a separate dining area. There is a very large living room, a game room, and 4 indoor fireplaces as well. We have a motor court to accommodate guests parking. There is wireless internet and cable throughout the property. The property is near a large park, a hiking trailhead and the bike trail. A few minutes drive to the beach as well as the airport and a 15 minute drive to downtown Santa Barbara. We have a state of the art security system with cameras on the entry points and outdoor walkways. We have an on-site caretaker in a detached guest house. We will personally make sure that your stay is a memorable one. We love hosting guests in this stunning sanctuary. You will keep wanting to come back to this very special Oasis among the beautiful Santa Ynez Mountains on the central coast of California in this legendary place. Please no wedding inquiries! Unfortunately the local laws do not allow us to do that sort of thing. We are inundated with wedding inquiries and just don't like having to say no multiple times a day. No parties, weddings, rehearsal dinners. Thank you!

Our own private resort with activities for the whole family. We enjoyed the beautiful koi pond, private pool, game room, ping pong, and even a mini golf course! We love to cook and found every utensil and pan we needed in the huge kitchen with two dishwashers, five sinks and a dining table to seat 12. A spacious living room with a baby grand piano. Yet there were quiet spots by the fountain or in the meditation gazebo. We'll be back!

Stunning!!! We had a pretty large group stay here and it was a huge hit! The grounds are absolutely amazing! Everything was clean, the rooms were spacious and included everything you could possibly need. We are Phoenicians who vacation in California every year and this house blew every rental we have ever booked out of the water. The host, Anna and the caretaker were so kind and gracious. Thank you for making this special occasion a memorable one. We will definitely be coming back.

This was an amazing place for our family vacation!

This property was perfect for our family vacation. There was something for everyone, games and a pool for the kids, fire pit and games for the for the adults, and a beautiful property to enjoy. Our VERY large family had enough space to be comfortable and we enjoyed all the common areas to spend time together. Check in and check out were easy and simple. Ana was great making sure we had everything we needed. We are looking forward to coming back next summer!

Incredible house

This is an incredible house with plenty of room for our family of 10. There are six bedrooms that can sleep 6 couples. We really loved the well-equipped kitchen, the multitude of sitting areas, the great outdoor areas, the game rooms, and the massage chair. One of my favorite areas was sitting by the koi fish pond. I can't say enough great things about this property and will definitely rent it again.

Our family and friends enjoyed the Memorial Day/long weekend stay at this beautiful property. It is very spacious and the garden with koi pond is stunning. The street is very quiet. Check-in was easy and all instructions were provided. Check-out was easy too (just put the towels in the wash and garbage in the container). Everything was in good working order and the kitchen well-stocked. Two recreation rooms with the pool table, table tennis etc. were a great addition. We asked for the pool to be warmed (extra charge), it was very worth it. Overall. great stay, highly recommend.

Plenty of Room

There were eight of us who stayed at this amazing property for a golf outing. Everyone in the group loved the house and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms. In addition, the outside area and the grounds are just beautiful. Everything was top notch and we all highly recommend this property and house. The host was fantastic to work with and made everything so easy.

Great for a family get together!

What an amazing place! This is the second time we have stayed here and other than the weather it was just as good if not better this time around. The place was immaculate upon arrival and we were able to check-in a few hours early. The property manager was very responsive and quick to assist with any request we had. We look to staying here again next year.

A memorable holiday!

Our three generation family Xmas gathering was well-served by this wonderful property. The pool was a huge bonus, the ping pong table saw a lot of action, and the exercise room was also appreciated. We cooked all of our meals in the well-stocked kitchen. A few more forks and glasses would be great for a big group. Honestly the house was so comfortable we only left the compound twice except for grocery shopping. Highest recommendation to prospective visitors. We were also very close to Goleta beach and the airport.

Perfect setting for a birthday trip in Santa Barbara

This listing was the best setting for a joint birthday trip with friends! We couldn't believe our eyes when we walked in, it truly felt like a villa/mini resort. The property was gorgeous and had everything we could think of. Pool, game room, putting green, etc., we were never bored. It is very conveniently located to get to state street, the beach, and all other SB attractions. The accommodations were beautiful as well and the host was incredibly kind and gracious. Check in / check out was simple and easy too. I can't recommend this booking enough for anyone visiting SB with a group, we will definitely be back for future trips!
