About this property

Tranquil Private Resort Home in Paradise

This magnificent 1 acre estate is a fully walled private zen garden complete with a koi pond and a beautiful pool with a surrounding outdoor kitchen, barbecue, bar and fireplace. This Spanish style villa has 6 spacious bedrooms including two very large Master bedrooms, 7 spa quality bathrooms so every bedroom has it's own attached bathroom. We have a large gourmet kitchen with a butlers pantry and a separate dining area. There is a very large living room, a game room, and 4 indoor fireplaces as well. We have a motor court to accommodate guests parking. There is wireless internet and cable throughout the property. The property is near a large park, a hiking trailhead and the bike trail. A few minutes drive to the beach as well as the airport and a 15 minute drive to downtown Santa Barbara. We have a state of the art security system with cameras on the entry points and outdoor walkways. We have an on-site caretaker in a detached guest house. We will personally make sure that your stay is a memorable one. We love hosting guests in this stunning sanctuary. You will keep wanting to come back to this very special Oasis among the beautiful Santa Ynez Mountains on the central coast of California in this legendary place. Please no wedding inquiries! Unfortunately the local laws do not allow us to do that sort of thing. We are inundated with wedding inquiries and just don't like having to say no multiple times a day. No parties, weddings, rehearsal dinners. Thank you!

Stunning!!! We had a pretty large group stay here and it was a huge hit! The grounds are absolutely amazing! Everything was clean, the rooms were spacious and included everything you could possibly need. We are Phoenicians who vacation in California every year and this house blew every rental we have ever booked out of the water. The host, Anna and the caretaker were so kind and gracious. Thank you for making this special occasion a memorable one. We will definitely be coming back.

This was an amazing place for our family vacation!

This property was perfect for our family vacation. There was something for everyone, games and a pool for the kids, fire pit and games for the for the adults, and a beautiful property to enjoy. Our VERY large family had enough space to be comfortable and we enjoyed all the common areas to spend time together. Check in and check out were easy and simple. Ana was great making sure we had everything we needed. We are looking forward to coming back next summer!

Incredible house

This is an incredible house with plenty of room for our family of 10. There are six bedrooms that can sleep 6 couples. We really loved the well-equipped kitchen, the multitude of sitting areas, the great outdoor areas, the game rooms, and the massage chair. One of my favorite areas was sitting by the koi fish pond. I can't say enough great things about this property and will definitely rent it again.

Our family and friends enjoyed the Memorial Day/long weekend stay at this beautiful property. It is very spacious and the garden with koi pond is stunning. The street is very quiet. Check-in was easy and all instructions were provided. Check-out was easy too (just put the towels in the wash and garbage in the container). Everything was in good working order and the kitchen well-stocked. Two recreation rooms with the pool table, table tennis etc. were a great addition. We asked for the pool to be warmed (extra charge), it was very worth it. Overall. great stay, highly recommend.

There were eight of us who stayed at this amazing property for a golf outing. Everyone in the group loved the house and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms. In addition, the outside area and the grounds are just beautiful. Everything was top notch and we all highly recommend this property and house. The host was fantastic to work with and made everything so easy.

What an amazing 5 star property! I came in with a group of friends to golf Sandpiper and other local courses. From the minute we arrived all of the group was saying they couldn't believe how beautiful the property was. You won't be disappointed if you book this house.

A memorable holiday!

Our three generation family Xmas gathering was well-served by this wonderful property. The pool was a huge bonus, the ping pong table saw a lot of action, and the exercise room was also appreciated. We cooked all of our meals in the well-stocked kitchen. A few more forks and glasses would be great for a big group. Honestly the house was so comfortable we only left the compound twice except for grocery shopping. Highest recommendation to prospective visitors. We were also very close to Goleta beach and the airport.

Perfect setting for a birthday trip in Santa Barbara

This listing was the best setting for a joint birthday trip with friends! We couldn't believe our eyes when we walked in, it truly felt like a villa/mini resort. The property was gorgeous and had everything we could think of. Pool, game room, putting green, etc., we were never bored. It is very conveniently located to get to state street, the beach, and all other SB attractions. The accommodations were beautiful as well and the host was incredibly kind and gracious. Check in / check out was simple and easy too. I can't recommend this booking enough for anyone visiting SB with a group, we will definitely be back for future trips!

Great for a family get together!

What an amazing place! This is the second time we have stayed here and other than the weather it was just as good if not better this time around. The place was immaculate upon arrival and we were able to check-in a few hours early. The property manager was very responsive and quick to assist with any request we had. We look to staying here again next year.

Paradise in Paradise

Wow, just wow! This family of 12 celebrated our matriarch's 80th birthday by coming back to Santa Barbara, our home town, for 4 nights at the beginning of 2025. This property is amazing! Between the 6 bedrooms with ensuite baths, the game room, massive and fully stocked kitchen, the pool, the BBQ, bar and eating area, the huge living room with grand piano, the massage chair in the master bedroom, the putting green, the Koi pond, AND the incredible and spacious 4 head shower there is literally nothing missing. We ended up spending the majority of our time at the house, and we have zero regrets. The hosts were amazing, the house was clean and the neighborhood quiet. We will be back!

Family Reunion

We had a family reunion vacation planned in Santa Barbara and found this lovely house to rent for a 5 day trip. The house is beautiful and well taken care of. We loved the pool and the outdoor bbq. There is a pool table, ping pong, and board games as well. We didn’t need to leave the house to be entertained. Each bedroom has its own private bathroom, which was perfect as we had 6 family members and their spouses. I highly recommend this house to anyone who is visiting the area.

Great Pool and Koi Areas!

The greatest highlight of this property is the swimming pool, the Koi pond, the size, the game room and golf amenities and it’s large with lots of bathrooms. Could use some more general cleaning before we arrived. Host had good communication. Easy check in. We had 12 people and could accommodate more spacious enough and close to airport. Master room looked nice too!
