The space at this house is absolutely wonderful. We had the best time just relaxing and hanging out by the pool. The weather was absolutely wonderful - we were visiting from the Midwest. Michelle was extremely fast with communication and made sure we had all the details we needed prior to our arrival so we were able to relax from the moment we got there.

Beautiful Retreat

We were visiting Santa Barbara to attend a funeral, along with my siblings and their grown children. There was plenty of space to spread around, and the main casita was home base for the evening and breakfast. The outdoor amenities were a huge plus, and it felt like a private oasis. The owner lives nearby and was attentive to any needs and requests.

Great Place!

Great place to stay for a large group. The owner was great and personable. Michelle was very responsive to questions. The only thing I think would improve the stay is getting the area sprayed for bugs. The Casitas next to the pool had some bugs that got in.

The property is stunning and can accommodate a big group. The 4 separate villas allow for privacy and feels like you’re staying at a resort. Michelle was easy to communicate with and responded in a timely manner. The digital welcome guide was a nice touch, and convenient if we had questions about the property.
