Privacy beyond belief—just minutes from downtown & the best hiking.

This rare Santa Barbara retreat is on a very private 7 acres. We put a lot of love into this place and you will feel it at every turn! Our 1/4 mile-long driveway winds through an old olive orchard. Our home is set in an enchanting and charming garden with 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, ocean, island, and canyon views, and an open floor plan with curved walls. Perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The primary suite opens to an upstairs covered view patio with an elliptical and weight set.

It's the Ultimate quiet getaway, yet 6 minutes to the Mission, nearby hiking trails, and Botanical Gardens. Surrounded by an olive orchard, gardens, and oak trees, this magical setting embodies the lifestyle people are looking for in Santa Barbara.

Kid's room can be stocked with toys for you to use or we can empty it so it's better for adults. House is fully solar powered and solar water heated. Internet is super fact and there are Apple TVs downstairs and in the master bedroom.

We also have private chef, cleaning, and childcare recommendations should you need that during your stay :)

About the host

Hosted by Josh Raab

Host profile image
Hi hi! We are Josh, Marley and Jahji. We live on our wonderful "little" property with two dogs and Jahji's grandma. We spend a lot of time outside here just playing in the garden, hiking, and soaking in the views.

Why they chose this property

We call it Shangri-La and you will see why. It is a very potent and dramatic place to be. There are sweeping views at every turn that make you feel like you are constantly living in the clouds. Especially in the morning when the ocean is usually covered with fog, it feels like you're a castle in the clouds.

There are so many birds and deer and critters of all kinds.

What makes this property unique

Complete privacy and rural feeling even though you're super close to downtown and about 12 minutes to the beach.
