Quick 1 night girls trip and the location and room was beyond fantastic! Service is aamzing and super helpful and the Tesla charger was a great perk. Thanks for everything!
Looking for a seeet little get away? We loved the cottage. Close to Santa Ynez Main Street, it was just a short walk to a park, restaurants, and cute shops. The cottage was immaculate comfortable and freshly remodeled. The host offered to move us to a unit with a second bed free of charge to better meet our needs. Why stay in a hotel when you could stay here.
