Zen Cottage Hideaway With Amazing Views

Very beautiful, peaceful and unique home at the end of a private drive.
Come get away from it all, while still enjoying the convenient location less than a mile from the beach and downtown Santa Barbara. There is easy access to bus and trolly to make your vacation more relaxing.
This tranquil cottage features absolutely spectacular views of the mountains and city. Plus there's an additional outdoor area of this very private sanctuary with glorious views where you can enjoy morning coffee and later revel in the incredible pink sunsets on the mountains. Rinse off in the handy out door shower after exploring the beach.
This thoughtful appointed , small home has recently been remodeled and is clean and tidy. Spacious and comfortable, it has two bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen. The bathroom is gorgeous, with a luxurious bathtub with views to outdoor fountain meditation area - where you can watch the birds bathe as well. Enjoy cooking in the full kitchen and relaxing in the welcoming dining area, or BBQ-ing outside and dining al fresco. The home also includes a full laundry, as well as a large TV, and includes cable and internet...

NOTE: We have very high cleaning standards, so house is kept immaculately clean. We use government approved disinfectants and cleaning products and make sure our home is safe for you and your friends and family.
Also this is my personal home so please be respectful... thank you...

Amazing!

We stayed for a few days, and were sad to leave! Everything was perfect, better than what we were expecting. Charlie was extremely kind, and available to us. Could not ask for a better host. Looking forward to coming back!

Zen Hideaway

We stayed at this lovely, peaceful cottage for a long weekend while in town for my cousin’s wedding. It was the perfect place for my family - great location close to everything, very comfortable and clean with plenty of space, and Charlie was very helpful and accommodating. We enjoyed relaxing on the patio/deck and the beautiful gardens. I would recommend staying here. Thanks Charlie!

Great house in excellent location

The house was very well appointed with everything we needed and had plenty of space for myself, husband, and 5-month old son. There was a pack n play and some baby books for us to use too. The host Charlie was very nice and accommodating. Would stay here again!

Collage graduation

We stayed at Zen Cottage while in Santa Barbara for our son’s graduation. Location is convenient very close to downtown and not too far from UCSB. Cottage is small but even with 4 people we did not feel crowded. We BBQed one night, enjoying the outside eating area. I would book this rental again should we come back.

Santa Barbara Trip

This property was great for our family getaway to Santa Barbara over Memorial Day weekend. The home was exactly as shown in the listing. Perks: Great location, easy drive to the beach and to downtown, and secluded with private deck. The bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom were all clean and well maintained. Charles was a great host and reached out weeks in advance to walk me through the property and answer any questions we had. Our family will definitely look into staying here again for future trips to Santa Barbara!
