Thank you so much for your kind words about Bluewater Retreat! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us at Paradise Retreats. We hope to host you again soon!
We so enjoyed our stay! The house was so clean and comfortable. The back deck was private and the hot tub in the evening was really fun. We loved waking up to the beautiful view of the ocean from the picture windows in the living room! The master bathroom is exquisite and so luxurious! We would absolutely stay here again! The hostess was most helpful and communicated quickly.

Great house and location! House was clean and in a great location. It was great to be able to sit on the porch and see the ocean. Would definitely recommend!
The view from the living room and front deck was amazing. The back deck is private and lovely. The location couldn't be better and is convenient for everywhere we wanted to walk/drive. The place could use a bit of sprucing up, but the view and location compensate for the somewhat dated decor.
Thank you for being our guest at Bluewater Retreatt! So nice to hear you enjoyed the location. We hope to host you again soon. Sincerely, Paradise Retreats
Great location and views. House and outdoor areas were great and enjoyable.

Fantastic! Thank you for being our guest and we're thrilled you enjoyed your stay. We hope to welcome you back soon. Until next time! Sincerely, Paradise Retreats
Wonderful location across the street from Shoreline Park with views of the Santa Barbara Channel and Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary. The park is lovely, very walkable, with spectacular views of the ocean. The home was very comfortable with a nice kitchen and laundry. It's not a new home, so a bit dated but with a very comfortable living room area and a cool, beachy vibe. Very very satisfied with our stay here. Highly recommended.
I have spent a lot of time in Santa Barbara over the years and have always wanted to stay in this neighborhood. Thew location could not be more convenient to downtown, the harbor, beaches, etc. The front patio is great for an afternoon glass of wine and the house has everything you need. All around a great house.
Perfect location for a walk to the beach, to watch the sunrise AND sunset. We used the deck to drink our morning coffee, eat lunch and afternoon snacks. So many wonderful restaurants within a short drive.
We really enjoyed our stay. Clean and the perfect location and set-up. We would definitely come back.
