This property was a clean, great space to gather our group of 8 coming from Oregon and Sonoma County. It was all of our first time to Santa Barbara area. We enjoyed the fact that the space was large enough inside and outside to allow everyone their space. The hot tub was great and clean too. The kitchen had most everything that we needed to cook with except for a blender. It is a little removed from downtown SB and the Ubers were expensive because of it. Overall, it was a great time and would book here again in the future.

This was a lovely home base for our family while attending a week long program at UCSB! The house and yard are beautifully and thoughtfully renovated, the kitchen is well stocked with essentials plus what I would consider a few extras, and there is plenty of space to relax and spread out both indoors and outdoors! The host was very responsive and is clearly putting a lot of pride and effort into making this a home away from home for their guests! I really appreciated the simple decor and lack of clutter because my toddler could roam around the house without safety concerns or fear that he would break something. I wish I had noticed the lack of AC when booking, but there were plenty of ceiling, window, and additional fans to keep the house comfortable as long as we stayed on top of turning those on as the evening breeze picked up. We would definitely stay again next time we’re back in the area!

Great house for a family get together, on a quiet cul-de-sac. Easy walk to beach and bluffs, very close to grocery store. We loved the back patio and had most of our meals there.
