37 years ago my husband and I were married in Santa Barbara. It was great to relive some memories. The house was clean, great location-close to restaurants on the Mesa and easy access to the beach.

Great stay and experience

The house is just exactly as pictures. The host was great and friendly. Perfect for a small family including pets. A really short walk to the beach. It was a quick trip for us and it was raining as well so we didn’t get to use the jacuzzi. Will come back next time.

Mesa Gem

Lovely, private Mesa home with lots of little spaces to enjoy. Exceptionally clean and newly redone with modern TV's, appliances, and bathrooms. Love the proximity to the ocean and very close to SBCC. The office is a great place to work or even exercise. Property manager is extremely responsive.

Just perfect!

The little house is brand new, appointed beautifully! Our contact Brent was always available to answer questions and take care of anything that came up. The walk to the beach and beach front park was just a few min. The location to dinning was never more than a mile or two. The only thing we would have liked to have was a little more closet space. Overall this place is a gem and is very well run. Would stay here again!

September Get a way

My wife and I, our two adult children and our dog spent 12 days in Santa Barbara. The house was lovely and as advertised. Very clean and recently up dated thru out. The location is a block and a half from the ocean -- a 5 minute walk. The yard was what sold me on this property -- completely enclosed and private. With a SPA and fire pit. With lots of out door area to relax in. Brent, who manages the property was extremely helpful for any request we made. Would clearly stay there again. Ben

Beautiful property in the perfect location

This exquisite, newly renovated home has modern finishes and incredible indoor and outdoor spaces that lend themselves to entertaining (which we did - dinner with my sister and brother in law) and simply relaxing. It would be difficult to find a more perfect location. It’s steps to the ocean and so close to the harbor and all of the bustle of downtown while still being incredibly private and quiet. We wished we could have stayed longer. Communication with the property manager was easy and while we had hoped for early check in, the property was ready on time. It’s an expensive listing; however, you can see the investment they’ve made in every square inch of the property and it would easily accommodate two couples or a family of 4. The adjunct building could be used for another space to sleep for kids, but they will have to enter the main property to use the bathrooms. Closet space is limited but sufficient for a few nights. I would recommend this property to anyone looking to escape to a stunning home in a pristine location. We had a wonderful time.
