The thing my wife and I cherished the most about our stay was the location of the property - so many favorite places are any easy walk or bike ride. In addition, the interior and outdoor space at the property are generous and comfortable. Finally, the host communicated in a timely and thoughtful manner, which was an added benefit.

We stayed three weeks at Miramonte. The home was spacious and well maintained. The view from the bedroom level was wonderful. Elizabeth took good care of us with answering questions. It is her personal home so we felt honored to stay there. Highlights were walk to the beaches in five min and to downtown within 15 min. If you love to walk rather than drive, this is a good location for that.

Elizabeth is most gracious. She attends her landmark home with loving care. It is an older historic charming property and if full of collectibles that reflect years of work. It is a special style and property.

Loved it!

I couldn’t have enjoyed my time more. The home, the location, the privacy, the yard with lemon and orange trees, the host—all perfect. ❤️☀️❤️

Serene Santa Barbara

The place was actually nicer than advertised. That rarely happens. The views of the mountains and ocean and yet in a walkable location to the beach and our favorite coffee spot has us already inquiring to stay next year. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. When we did drive, everything was within 7 minutes. The owner couldn’t be nicer and more accommodating.

Beautiful home

Leisa is wonderful (so kind) and so is her home. We stayed 30 days and loved every day of our stay. We were able to walk to the beach and downtown each day. Leisa remodeled and decorated an original Frank Lloyd Wright home in a way that should be in a magazine. Great attention to detail. I loved the art, crystal, silver trays, bedding and comfortable beds (and everything else). From the master bedroom I could see the mountains and the beach (spectacular). She gave great recommendations for food, beverages, and events. I hope our paths cross again. Thank you for everything!

Perfect Santa Barbara Oasis

My wife, Michele, and I spent the month of July at Alta Mesa and could not have been more pleased with everything. The Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired architecture was breathtaking, complemented by beautifully landscaped gardens and shaded outdoor areas. The property was well-stocked with everything we needed for a wonderful stay, from the kitchen appliances and utensils to the large 72" TV. Alta Mesa had everything we could ask for during our time in beautiful Santa Barbara. One of our favorite features was the long deck at the front of the house, offering stunning ocean views and delightful afternoon sun. The master bedroom is spacious, with French doors opening onto the upstairs deck, providing a perfect spot for relaxation. Elizabeth, our host, was terrific. She communicated well and checked in with us to ensure we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The location was ideal—just three blocks from the beach and harbor, making it a perfect base for exploring the best of Santa Barbara. Michele and I spend every July in Santa Barbara, and this is one of the best places we have enjoyed. I highly recommend Alta Mesa for your visit to the American Riviera.

Style, comfort, stunning location - EXCELLENCE!

So much to say so I'll try to summarize: The House: An exercise in style. Architecturally it's a fascinating early Frank Lloyd Wright and lovingly restored to a former beauty. The interior is appointed as well as any home and outfitted with Casper mattresses and very high qual. linens. We spent time outdoors every day. The shade and furniture are very refreshing and we felt like we were in a courtyard in Tuscany. It's a MasterClass in how to style a home. I literally found myself studying every corner. It's the kind of home you'd see in a home fashion magazine, and I do think it's actually been photographed more than once for mags. The neighborhood: A charming, central, older neighborhood. 20 mins walk gets you to downtown thru darling neighborhoods, 30 gets you to the beach where you can settle in or rent bikes to explore more. The Host: We were intrigued by Leisa when we saw the home because it's fabulous, and then communicating with her made us ALL fall head over heels in love. She's one of my all-time favorite hosts, and I have hosts that have become lifelong friends, so I'm saying a whole bunch. For a combination of all the qualities listed above, I couldn't get my family (two teens and daddy-o) to leave the house. I had some fabulous plans that they wanted to forego so they could stay in and read and cook at home. It's worth every penny. There's nothing more I can say but just book it!
