My wife and I had a wonderful stay here with our dogs. The location is excellent—close to Montecito’s Lower Village and the beach, while also being an easy and enjoyable bike ride into Santa Barbara. The neighborhood is quiet and pleasant, and the property was a comfortable home base for exploring the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly return.

We were looking for something more comfortable than a typical hotel room. So we searched in VRBO, and found this casita. The photos are lovely, but we were delighted to see that the casita was even more charming in person. We felt at home! Great for 2 couples. The patio area was beautifully landscaped and so peaceful. The kitchen is fully equipped. Close to Coast Village Road. We will return!

We had a really wonderful stay at this casita. It was everything I had hoped it would be, clean, private, and very inviting. We are so often let down at rental homes, but this was an exception. The kitchen was well equipped, the living room was very comfortable for lounging about, the outdoor patio was excellent with all the gorgeous plantings, and I loved all the antique furnishings that warm up the space. We highly recommend this property and the location could not be more convenient. We appreciate so much it is dog-friendly too as quality dog-friendly rentals are hard to come by. A true gem in gorgeous Montecito.

We loved the Casita! We stayed for almost three weeks and it was absolutely perfect for our family of 4. We used the grill and ate on the patio almost every night. The hot tub was an unexpected treat that also got a lot of use from us! The kitchen was well stocked with all of the dishes, pot and pans, bakeware, etc. that we needed. We will definitely stay here again! Thank you, Lynn, for being such a wonderful host!

Girls trip!

Amazing Casita so close to the beach, restaurants, hiking and wine country. Private patio with hot tub was amazing at the end of our long days hiking! Easy walk to the beach with our coffee in the morning. Well equipped kitchen, comfy large sectional couch, and washer/dryer a bonus! Would definitely stay again.

A gem in Montecito - ideal location near Santa Barbara

We loved our stay at the casita. It is comfortable, well equipped and maintained, and in a great location: on a quiet road, close to the beach. Perfect for a family. The check-in instructions were clear. Lynn is a great host - it was easy to communicate with her whenever we had a question. We would love to return whenever we visit the area.
