Wow! This gorgeous home is by far the best VRBO my family and I have ever stayed in! Not only was it extremely clean but it was so cozy and comfortable with everything and more that we needed to make our family vacation great! Walkable to the cutest local grocery and to the beach, restaurants and stores. Very kind and friendly neighbors that were so helpful with local advice. The house itself had such a great energy and comfortable feel to it! Beautiful kitchen with all the cooking supplies anyone could want! And what a kind, exciting surprise to receive a beautiful gift basket with treats and gifts! I give this house the highest rating possible! Definitely an incredible place in beautiful Santa Barbara!
