Cute and comfortable studio in a fantastic location. We loved being able to walk to the beach and a quick drive to downtown. Host as great, very informative about the local space launch. We would definitely stay again.
Loved this VRBO!! It’s absolutely adorable and the owners have so thoughtfully stocked it with what you need. The outside patio is lovely. Close to all the beach and downtown fun. This complimented a great weekend with my daughter.
Mi Casa was a perfect place for us! A great location and setup for a weeklong stay. Jeff and Michele were great hosts - we would stay here again for sure!
We really enjoyed our stay at Michelle’s! It was cute, quaint, clean and cozy. It was stocked with everything one needs while traveling. Will definitely stay again if we ever come back to Santa Barbara. Highly recommend!
Amazing place in an amazing location. Perfect for access to the beach and a short walk into Santa Barbara. The place was spotless and was very comfortable. It had everything you need for a stay.
Would happily return in the future.
We were looking for a quiet, cozy spot for frequent trips to Santa Barbara to visit our daughter and son-in-law and were really pleased with Michelle's place. It is centrally located, super clean and has a lot of nice little touches. Perfect for two people for a short stay. We will be back!
Everything about this property is great! It was nicely decorated and very comfortable (comfy bed). The location is great and very walkable. Michele and Jeff were so friendly and hospitable. We will definitely stay again. What a gem!
Simply lovely place to stay. Great experience with Michele and Jeff from start to finish! From reservation process through the entire stay. They were available and friendly but also gave us our privacy. The design and furnishing of the place is really wonderful. It may be the nicest place we’ve stayed at - ever!
We really enjoyed how comfy, clean, and convenient to all in Santa Barbara this suite is! Located in a beautiful neighborhood, walkable to the beach, some restaurants and shops, this suite was the perfect home away from home for us - from breakfast on the patio to retiring at day’s end in the very comfy bed. Thank you, Michele and Jeff, for being such terrific and responsive hosts! We hope to have the opportunity to stay again.
Such a gem of a property in Santa Barbara. Very comfortable and relaxing space with everything you need. We enjoyed the beautiful neighborhood and close proximity to everything. We enjoyed renting bikes and cruising around the area. Easy 10 minute walk to the nearest city bike station. Thank you for the great stay!
Michelle was was a great host and responded quickly to any questions that we had. This nicely furnished unit was comfortable and private with a good kitchen. Location was great for walking to restaurants and grocery stores in the neighborhood as well as walking to the harbour through shoreline park.
On arrival at the property, we were blown away at the quality of the apartment. Everything had been thought of by the owners. Super comfy bed, lots of space _ great shower and a kitchen full of equipment. We are from England and love our tea and the only thing missing was a kettle to make our tea, but we overcame that probably by boiling a pan of water.
The photos do not do the property and outdoor spaces justice - great location in the Mesa a lovely walk through the parks the beaches and Stearn’s Wharf. Had an absolutely superb week.
I probably stay at at least a half dozen VRBOs a year including several in Santa Barbara and was totally wowed by Michelle’s charming cottage. I’m almost afraid to recommend it so highly as it may not be available when I want to head back down. I have no idea when it was renovated or furnished but it looked brand new to me. Everything worked perfectly and Michelle’s husband, a beekeeper, even popped in to give me some of their homemade honey.
Feel so lucky to have found this great studio (with private patio and kind, caring hosts) in a peaceful, beautiful neighborhood. Mi Casa es Su Casa has all you’d need to spend any length of time. The wharf, harbor, beach (w/restaurant on the sand), surfer’s area, Shoreline Park, best grocery (Lazy Acres), Hendry’s (Arroyo Burro) beach, Funk Zone… all and more within a mile or two.
