Absolutely loved this home in Montecito!
We loved the location! We walked to the town and rode cruisers to the beach, which you can also walk to. We went to the Santa Barbara Bowl three nights in a row. It is an amazing venue surrounded by nature. Will definitely come back again.

Everything was wonderful
We could not have picked a better place for our family of 4 to spend a week in Montecito. The home was very clean, comfortable, nicely decorated and well stocked. The check-in was easy and the host was friendly and responsive. And location location location - 10 minute walk to the beach, a 10 minute walk to the restaurants and shops on Coast Village Road, and an easy drive to Santa Barbara. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to the area.

Family Gathering
The numerous choices for outdoor seating and the amazing live plants and landscaping were fantastic. The plants were interesting, full of birds, and gave the place a sense of intimacy. The house was beautiful and the kithen had plenty of glasses, wine glasses, dishes, utensils, pots and pans, etc.We loved that the kitchen and master bedroom had high quality water filters for drinking water - very much appreciated.Everything was clean and lovely. The only thing that was not appreciated was the very VERY strong soapy-fake smell on the bed linens, that was impossible to avoid. Possibly from dryer sheets. Other than that, it was perfect in every way for a family gathering both inside and out.

Perfect and Private Setting
Our family, two adults and a child, had a great time visiting this home...and that is what it felt like...a comfy and clean home. Roomy common areas allowing us to spend time together and also loads of space providing an opportunity find our comfy/quite corners. Some hiccups such as not being able to enjoy the sauna tub and the property was swarming with oak worms/moths to where we couldn't really enjoy the grounds. However, if the property manager fixed the drain and treated the outside, which I am sure they will, it is a perfect oasis. On a quiet street, with great neighbors. We had a great time and would HIGHLY recommend.
