Perfect weekend to Santa Barbara / Goleta

After the Vrbo check in issue got resolved by the host, we enjoyed the Mermaid for two nights while visiting our son at UCSB. Host went above and beyond to fulfill our needs while staying at the Mermaid. The location is in the middle of SB and Goleta.

Room for 2, not 4

Good location near UCSB. Kitchen & living area tiny and cramped with large futon…so hard to even watch a movie or TV. Space ok for 1-2, but not 4

The property was fine for a place to sleep at night. I would not recommend it for more than 2 people. The odor inside the property was awful. A mix of fumes from the garage, mildew, and cat urine. The dogs lunging at the fence line anytime you walked by was also a nuisance. I did not spend much time there, only slept at the property at night.

About the host

Hosted by Oscar Zapata

Host profile image
Born in Mexico City and living in Santa Barbara for 44 years. I like to be a good host, because I do love traveling, and I take notes of the positive and negative of the places where I have stayed and I try my best to make my guests feel a welcoming and homey environment, with a place that is well equipped, cleaned and sanitize.

Why they chose this property

A very desirable neighborhood next door to Hope Ranch and close to everything, yet secluded and safe.

What makes this property unique

I would say the location, because the property is on an easement which makes it very private, secure and secluded.
