This is our 7th VRBO on a 2 month road trip and this is by far the best one! The location was great for dog walks to the beach (which is awesome!) and the privacy of the courtyard gave the place a sense of wonderful tranquility and safety with locked gates and easy parking in the rear of the property. The unit is beautifully decorated beyond what most VRBO’s are willing to do and the bed was very comfortable. Little extras like coffee, tea, spices, and even some drinks and snacks made for a warm welcome. We highly recommend this Santa Barbara gem!!
