About this property

Olive Branch Farm; A luxury farm stay.

Welcome to Olive Branch Farm! We have been grateful hosts since the very beginning of home stays. Please see our reviews. We have loved every moment of hosting while continuing to improve our property for ourselves and our guests. We want our home to be a sanctuary for our guests where they can come and not just stay...but to be genuinely immersed in the property and their surrounds.
Our property is very special...It’s full of love and generosity that existed long before we purchased it 28 years ago.
Our property is a well landscaped 5 acre farm that is like living in a park. We have 17 Olive Trees that are over 100 years old , beautiful gardens, outdoor dining spaces, a pool, hammock, firepit and lots of outdoor vignets to gather or be alone.
Our home is a very open indoor /outdoor design that allows families to move with ease to gather or find a private little nook to relax with a book.
Our attention to detail is such that you will be able to pick up a book and start reading if you have forgotten yours, cook a wine country dinner in our fully stocked kitchen and eat outside under the olive trees, light the fire pit and pop some popcorn with our special kettle, Hot Tub under the stars, and then retreat to your suite and sleep soundly under quality linens.
From our experience we know that if you are looking for a home stay that makes your family and friends feel like they have had a true luxury stay in terms of connection, relaxation, accommodations, love and peace, our home is for you.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
We have been hosts now for 14 years and have been part of the original homestay concept. Our initial belief that it would be great to share our home with other travelers and meet people that we may never have met has proved to be one of our favorite parts as hosts. Our entire family has been involved in our home stay evolution. We have all taken part in our guests happiness and well being. We are an extremely giving family that loves the art of hospitality.
We understand that some guests want complete privacy and others want personal interaction. We can accommodate either.It is important to us that our property remains current with updated furniture, amenities, and hospitality trends.

Why they chose this property

Our home is located in the charming village of Ballard. We are tucked away at the end of a long road creating privacy and intimacy. You are a short lovely walk away from the famous Bob’s Well Bread. All of the properties on the street are 5 acre parcels that have horses, goats, llamas etc and all of our neighbors are so friendly.
We are centrally located to everywhere in the Valley which makes everything very convenient.
There are local farms near to our home for fresh produce and several markets within an 8 minute drive. Our neighborhood is quiet, well maintained , and welcoming.

What makes this property unique




Our property is perfectly situated between Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, and Solvang in the charming village of Ballard and very close to markets, wineries and shopping.
What makes our property unique is that in the past 14 years of hosting we have evolved into an Agritourism Style Regenerative Farm that has re-wilded old horse pastures into California Native concentrated meadows that incorporate soil making areas. Our intent is to allocate at least 10 percent of each guests revenue to planting trees for more shade , enhancing natural waterways with riparian plants to naturally clean runoff water, continue and expand our compost making practices and cultivate our small but mighty food forest that enables us to donate our bounty to the local food insecure.
Our hosting mission not only includes providing our guests with a luxury farm stay but helps them to feel a part of something larger.
Our home is for those that want to come and relax within the space...choose a book from our library of hundreds and find a cozy corner to escape for a bit.
Create a slow cooked meal for your family and eat out under the Olive Trees.
Gather around the fire pit for s'mores and stories. Our neighborhood is welcoming and friendly. Stroll up and down and meet neighbors, other visitors and animals that would love a visit.
Truly a visit that your family will remember always.
