Summerland

The home served as a good location for us to have a family vacation around Santa Barbara. There is a nice playground for young kids at the bottom of the hill and across the freeway that really helped us get their wiggles out.

We had a great stay in Santa Barbara and Kristin’s house was perfect for our family of 6. The house was clean, had a great view, and her garden was absolutely beautiful.

Summer in Summerland

We had a wonderful stay here. Kristin was a great host, always very responsive. The property has one of the best yards and views of any VRBO we have ever stayed in. The house is well appointed with all the necessities including a pack ‘n play for our 10 month old grandson. It was in easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants in Summerland, and a short drive to Montecito and Santa Barbara. I highly recommend.

Summerland stay

Our stay at Kristin’s home was wonderful. The location was perfect. A short drive to Santa Barbara and a quick walk to charming downtown Summerland. The home was beautiful and clearly very well taken care of. The television in the living room wasn’t working properly when we arrived, and Kristin was right on top of it and had us working to resolve the issue quickly. The toddlers we were with loved the bunk room as well!

Fun in Santa Barbara

Kristin has a great property in Summerland. I was worried it might be a little far south of Santa Barbara proper but the location is great. The neighborhood is very quiet and near the little town center and only a short distance to Monticito & SB. The ocean view is beautiful and the house is well appointed and comfortable. Kristin was very responsive and accommodating, Highly recommend for a Santa Barbara adventure...

Amazing Santa Barbara Getaway

This house and property is amazing and so beautiful! Words really can't describe how breath-taking the ocean view is. The house is modern, comfy, and overall makes you feel like you are in a private resort! It has everything you could ever need. My girlfriends and I rented this house for a birthday weekend getaway, and it make all the difference from being in a hotel. The location is central and extremely easy to find. I can't wait to visit again and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxing and awesome experience!!!

Great property for our family getaway

The location and the property were perfect for our family getaway to Summerland. The house is updated and clean with a beautiful view of the ocean. Additionally, the house comes stocked with everything you need for a beach day. The owners have really thought of everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Kristin is extremely attentive and willing to help. Each day we walked to the adorable town and down to the local beach. We will be back! We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a home near Santa Barbara.

Comfortable stay

The best thing about the house is outdoor space - beautiful ocean view and a very impressive succulent garden. The bed was comfortable, we had everything we need for the relaxed stay. Communication with our host Kristin was easy and fast. The only things that we wished we had was Netflix or Amazon Prime video (there was only a basic cable television with no payed subscription). Overall, very good experience. Thank you, Kristin!

About the host

Hosted by Kristin E

Host profile image
Born and raised in the Bay Area, our family is 4th generation Californian. We are a Christian family, involved with our church and community, and we have teenagers that keep us going, at a rigorous pace... We push ourselves and our kids to excel in our work, so we cherish our vacation time together, when we can put obligations aside and just eat, sleep and laugh.

Why they chose this property

We are a Northern California extended family with ties to the Santa Barbara area. We found this perfect spot in Summerland, so we jumped in. This property is unusually large for the area...1/3 of an acre, so we think we're pretty lucky to have it. We get down here quite often, and our family converges here for easy days and nights. Our mother grew up in Orange, where her father owned and ran the local grocery store, Thompson's Market. She's not here any more, but we know she loves that we have a place in her beloved SoCal. She would really LOVE just sitting on the patio with a cup of tea and the ocean...

What makes this property unique

As mentioned in the description, this place just feels good. It has a kind of serenity that is hard to find, and you can feel it when you walk in. I think the high ceilings combined with warm, comfortable furnishings give you an ensconced feeling: that you are safe and sound. It also feels very private, as there are really no spots where neighbors are nearby looking in. It's an oasis. With an ocean view. Can't beat that.
