About this property

93108 / Montecito getaway !!!

Just renovated guest quarters in a modern home in the exclusive Montecito section of Santa Barbara. Private entrance. Easy street parking.

Over 400 square feet. Steam room shower, mini-refrigerator, microwave, queen bed / real mattress, 65' Samsung flat screen TV and Blu-Ray DVD player.

Free wireless internet.

Private patio area.

Guests must descend a dozen stairs to enter.

No air conditioning. Nor is there in the main house where we live. Rare in Santa Barbara houses due to its coastal location. This was never an issue for years but last few summers have had some record-breaking heat. We provide a powerful Dyson tower fan and an auxiliary fan which will make room comfortable if there is a “heatwave”. This is a rare rare occurrence.

House features views of Montecito Peak and is in a remote tranquil canyon.

The Pacific Ocean (beautiful Butterfly Beach) - 3 miles.

Closest restaurants / ATM / food market / pharmacy (Coast Village Road or the local's Upper Village) - both 2.5 miles

Downtown Santa Barbara (shopping, movies, museums, dozens of restaurants) - 3 miles.

Santa Barbara Mission - 4 miles.

Westmont College - 1.2 miles.

UCSB and Santa Barbara Airport - 12 miles.

Wine County (Santa Ynez Valley) - 30 miles.

Montecito is home to 'the Dude', Oprah, Sonny Crockett (if you are old enough to remember) and can be yours for the week or weekend.

A Beautiful Gem
This lovely studio tucked in the canyons of Montecito is perfect for a quiet get-away. Easy access to all of the wonderful things to do in the Santa Barbara area - yet so serene when returning from your day's busy adventure. We will certainly stay here again.

Great weekend getaway!
We had a great stay here! The studio was clean and spacious, and everything we wanted to visit in Santa Barbara was just a 10-minute drive away! The hosts were very communicative and friendly, too.

Cozy Getaway with Gorgeous Views!
I wish I’d had more time to stay at this beautiful “suite” in Montecito, with gorgeous views of the canyon, the sound of frogs in the evening, and owls at night! Even when not on site, Lisa and Chris were so great at communicating all the necessary details of my stay there. They have created the most inviting getaway space, with a comfortable couch, the most cozy bed, a shower with a steam shower function, snacks, coffee maker, Brita pitcher, and more! I love the welcoming entrance, with a guestbook of satisfied travelers noted inside, as well as the cork board maps to see where guests have visited from! Little attention to details that were so nice! I would love to stay there again when visiting my daughter in college in the area! Thank you, Lisa and Chris!

Cozy Nest in the Hills
Our short stay in Montecito was made all the better by the warm and cozy accommodations. We had everything we needed and were just minutes from all that Santa Barbara has to offer. We would definitely return to this wonderful spot tucked away in the hills.

Short Get Away
This is a great place to stay. This was a short trip as I work as a NCAA Official and had a series @ UCSB. Quick access to State St. and only about 15mins from UCSB. Worked out perfectly!

A truly perfect spot ....
This was the perfect respite for us – the space is thoughtfully and elegantly laid out. We were in town for a large wedding and needed an escape from the crowds. Our hosts thought of everything, including a hair dryer! Our first evening, after dinner and a packed cocktail party in downtown Santa Barbara, it was a short drive up the hill to a quiet glass of wine outside under a harvest moon. The next morning, we were less than 15 minutes away from brunch on the beach. Post festivities (both evenings), we enjoyed a great night’s sleep. We would love to stay again the next time we are in the area. Thank you Lisa and Chris.

Peaceful Hideaway
We loved this little place in Montecito. We wanted to spend our honeymoon exploring Santa Barbara and the surrounding areas. It was a quick drive from town and close to hiking trails with it's own little outdoor space. Couldn't have been happier with our stay.
