I had a wonderful girl's weekend here. The location is truly unbeatable! I was also surprised that the place felt much larger than the photos show, and the back patio in the cover photo has been completely redesigned. I would recommend this home to anyone visiting the area and hope to get the opportunity to stay again some time!

Good location walking distance to Butterfly beach and downtown Montecito. We were very disappointed with the major construction going on right behind the back patio. Woken up by hammering at 7:50 one morning and 7:15 another! Not what I want on vacation. The host did not notify us about this ahead of time. We wouldn’t have booked it if we had known.

There is a new house under construction behind my property. The construction is 85% complete fully framed. Construction was suppose to be completed by June 2026 There is some small intermittent noise but should not be overly invasive as the house is fully framed. I have had several guests during the past 6 months who have not complained. I have also priced the property at a discount to account for any noise. I did offer the guest a full refund the day of the complaint. They decided to remain in the property inspite of the inconvenience.

This is our second time staying in the property and we loved it. We came back with our kids this time and it was perfect for our family of four. Good size house with everything we needed for a week. What really makes the house special is the location since it's a 5 min walk from the beach and a 5 min walk from downtown with lots of cute stores and restaurants. Kerry was very communicative throughout the visit while also being respectful of our space. If I needed something he responded quickly and helpfully. We would definitely choose to stay here again!
