After a thorough look at Santa Barbara and Montecito vacation properties, we decided on this house......we stayed 1 week....absolutely ideal...totally amazing. Location is perfect....1 minute away to the best local beach in Santa Barbara (Hendry's Beach). Beautiful neighborhood and fantastic expansive ocean view, with a excellent heated pool and jacuzzi, and wonderful lawn and patio furniture, bedrooms, everything. We had 2 Siblings with their families join us and we stayed very comfortably in this 4+ bedroom house, which was very thoughtfully arranged in every way for our stay. We know Santa Barbara very well (native town to my wife) and were even more impressed with the property and arrangements than the photos can reveal. The Hosts were very understanding and quick to make everything perfect for us.....wonderful people to rent from. I am giving a 100% recommendation to this one.....it's the quality of the Four Seasons Biltmore, but more room, private, better views and pool.....really ideal for any group.
