Perfect Santa Barbara Getaway

We were visiting Santa Barbara for a wedding and this property was perfect for us! The location is great and very walkable to the funk zone as well as the beach. The property was beautiful and matched the pictures on the listing. Lastly, the communication was very prompt from the host which was always appreciated!

Perfect

Beautiful, spacious, nicely furnished and decorated home in a great location within walking distance of downtown. Private, garage parking (with a dumb waiter to help with moving luggage upstairs) - outdoor areas to enjoy the weather - washer/dryer - fully equipped kitchen. Couldn’t have asked for better accommodations for our short stay in Santa Barbara.

Mommy daughter time

Very nice. Bath tub drain didn’t hold water very well and the water heater didn’t support the tub bath. That was very disappointing, other than that it was perfect.

Beautiful, comfortable and walkable to all attractions

We loved this property. Specifically,the location as we were able to walk most everywhere we wanted to go. The views from the rooftop deck were stunning, especially at night. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms clean, modern and spacious. The tub in the master was a dream after a day of walking! There are several flights of stairs in this home. From bedroom area to main living area and again to deck. The only improvements we could suggest would be perhaps a redo on the bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths. They were definitely looking very worn.and discolored we did have some issues communicating with the company when it came time to receive information on how to get inside this home. I had a lot of back-and-forth and still didn’t receive what I needed. Perhaps I was asking a bit too early, but we were actually on our way to Santa Barbara and still hadn’t received the information. Eventually, all worked out. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent pet friendly home in SB, great walking distance to local attractions, shopping and restaurants. House has an amazing kitchen, very comfortable to prepare home cooked meals with all the fresh ingredients from the local Farmers Market. We were able to enjoy around a nice big solid dining table. The patios are lovely and very private for early coffee or evening sun.I enjoyed having real furniture, furniture that didn't feel like it was just about ready to break because it's so cheaply made. We were very grateful for locked gates and garage parking in this neighborhood, although the neighborhood felt very safe there is a lot of transient comings and goings being so close to the train station and freeway. Our stay was in mid-Summer and it was HOT without a lot of air ventilation in the unit, I opened all the doors and windows available to air out the unit. There are lots of ceiling fans (and even extra plug-in floor fans) which were useful and appreciated. We did open both sets of doors, all possible windows to develop a cross draft to some help, it's just a very solid house! Please note that one upstairs balcony door opens to a shared balcony (so you need to be comfortable with that if you want to open for a cross draft).
