Great House in a great location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with 6 adults in this property. Everything is very walkable, the house has everything one can possbily need and is beautifully furnished. The backyard is great as well. Only thing to mention is that the windows are a bit thin, so keep that in mind when booking.

Perfect Vacation Spot!

We had a wonderful stay at Downtown Villa. The home was well-decorated, clean, comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked. We had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. It's ideally located to many restaurants and the beach was a quick bike ride. The property is perfect for a family vacation. We'll be back soon.

Santa Barbara gem

This was the best house we've rented. Even better than the pics. Although it was just the 2 of us this place would be perfect for a family. Our only comment is that the bed was a little uncomfortable. Other than that everything was absolutely perfect.
