Beautiful modern house and pool. Great hosts.

This house was perfect for our family vacation for spring break. It has great living spaces, is filled with beautiful modern decor, and has a 5 star back yard with a large pool and spa. Josiah and Justine were amazing hosts. Would definitely stay again on our next trip to Montecito.

Wonderful property, house and location

Highly recommend! My family, including toddler, had a great stay. The house is very nice and comfortable, and the property is incredible. Also very convenient. The owners went above and beyond with keeping the house stocked and making sure it feels like home.

Dream property and best hosts!

Everything about this home was terrific- even more beautiful in person too! Home was very well stocked and terrifically maintained. Justine & Josiah were wonderful hosts! So welcoming, professional and thoughtful- and gave us a whole book of recommendations to make sure we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Montecito! Back yard was stunning too! Great quiet location too in close proximity to shops and beach. Loved this property!

Class A Property

Class A property. Class A hosts. Justine and Josiah are outstanding stewards of the property - they are available, informative, caring and accommodating hosts. We had a sterling stay. From the striking exterior landscape to the comfortable and unique interior, every detail is thought out. Well-situated in Montecito, it's an experience to behold.

This house is AMAZING. As gorgeous as the photos are, it is even better in person. Everything was perfect. The house was so well stocked, including (especially!) in the kitchen. The bedrooms are gorgeous and the yard is just beyond. Justine and Josiah are fantastic hosts too - super responsive when we had questions and just went out of their way with terrific recommendations of restaurants, beaches, and places to go. We brought our dog, and were thrilled that the house and neighborhood were so pet friendly. 1000000/10 have already planned our trip to stay here again next summer!
The hammock is so dreamy - our dog and I napped there every afternoon!

Amazing family time

We recently stayed at the Montecito modern for one week for a family get together. We were greeted by Josiah and he could not have been more gracious. The house is beautiful and lively with ample bedrooms and bathrooms. There were plenty of fresh white towels and bath supplies. The kitchen is well stocked with everything we needed. We wrapped up every night around the beautiful fire pit out back. Thank you for sharing your home!

This house is as beautiful in person as the photos online. It is light and airy, with beautiful, colorful artwork. The backyard is an oasis! Absolutely stunning! We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and sauna every day. The property is fenced so it is perfect for a dog. The house was well-equipped with everything we needed. Justine and Josiah are amazing. Any questions or concerns were answered immediately. We found a bees nest by the gate one day and within a couple hours a beekeeper arrived. It was a spectacle to watch- he captured all the bees without special gear and brought them to his house. The location is close to downtown Montecito and the beach. We walked our dog every morning to the beach and back. Overall this property is a 10/10!

Montecito Shangri-la

The photos of this property do not do it justice. We had the most exquisite stay - the house itself is stunning with top-shelf everything (appliances, cutlery, bedding, artwork, etc). And the outdoor spaces are heaven on earth. Justine was very communicative and answered the few questions I had upon arrival promptly despite the fact that she was on vacation in another time zone. We’ve stayed in many houses in Montecito and this home is our new favorite. It manaoyo feel luxurious and homey at the same time. A perfect balance. A perfect trip! We’re already looking at our calendar to see when we can come back. Thank you for giving us such a beautiful landing pad for spring break!

This house is absolutely perfect. The inside and outside are beautiful and the home is very comfortable. Everything you need is stocked in the house. The location is perfect as well; we were able to walk everywhere. We will definitely come back. Justine is very responsive and accommodating.

Fantastic House in a Great Location.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. We really recommend it. Owners provided us with a guide of the area (restaurants, beaches…) that was super useful. Seamless experience.

Fabulous!

What an amazing home! Everything was above and beyond what we expected. The house itself was exactly what you’d want in not just a vacation rental but in a home. And the grounds! We cannot say enough about the grounds. It has the feel of a luxury resort that you have all to yourself. We brought our two dogs and they had the best time wandering, exploring and playing. And the location is perfect. Halfway between the Upper Village and Coast Village, a short drive to the beach and a short drive to Santa Barbara. If we had known how great this property was we would have booked it for longer. Will definitely be back!

Montecito

This is a clean, beautifully decorated home on a large piece of property in a premium location. The owners were extremely helpful and friendly, juggling their own schedule to accommodate us. Some of the fixtures were tired (the owners mentioned they are renovating the kitchen and baths) but again, all was immaculately clean and fully functional. Owners also mentioned that they are adding a swimming pool to the grassy yard bordering an expansive natural / cactus garden. We particularly enjoyed sitting outside on the porch or by the gas firepit. The house and yard have terrific privacy, but the property does back up onto a school. If you are someone who - like my wife and I - enjoy the background noise of children playing, then no problem. We would definitely stay here again.

Cool retro home in Montecito

Justine and Josiah were very responsive. Josiah met us at the house on the first day and gave us a chilled bottle of Prosecco. The house is on an acre and very private with a great front lawn and a succulent garden in the back. My dog, Marley, loved running around and sniffing and investigating everything. Only a 15 minute walk to the beach. A lovely property. No AC but really it was not required.
