Adorable home and gardens with so many nice extras- multiple patios, bikes, cozy spaces. Great short walk to the beach and restaurants. Perfect weekend!
We had a great stay it's a perfect beach house walking distance to Miramar beach. The house is clean and beautiful and it looks like a Serena and Lily magazine. The kids enjoyed staying upstairs and the house had everything we needed including boogie boards.
We love this location because it is within walking distance of the beach and a quick drive to the village shopping. The house is so clean, well-stocked, and charming. There are beautiful gardens and many cozy outdoor spots throughout the yard. We highly recommend it.
Very put together and comfortable house with emphasis on outdoor spaces and living. Perfect for our family of five. Lots to do for kids - ping pong, hot tub, beach nearby, great large kids bedroom and hang out spot. Location was also a big plus - walk to Miramar and close proximity to coast village road, butterfly beach, and great hiking spots in Montecito and Santa Barbara, etc. We’d love to be back!
The house is charming, with exquisite and well maintained gardens. It’s very clean, good water pressure, nice location, comfortable beds, fans in every room, good kitchen appliances, rooms well appointed with linens and towels. Kitchen and bath cabinets are slightly dated but not a problem in any way. May I suggest a small hotel safe in a closet for small valuables? I would gladly stay here again.
The property is beautiful. Very stylish decor, super comfortable bedding, and wonderful outdoor spaces. We enjoyed our morning coffee in the outdoor seating area, played ping pong in the afternoon, and walked to the beach. The home is very well appointed, with ample towels, bikes, and a well stocked kitchen. We rented the house with another family and it was a great space for the adults and kids. You can hear the train go by so if you are a very light sleeper it may disturb you. We would definitely stay here again.
clean, well maintained, very well thought out, with all the amenities. I have stayed in Montecito for the last three years. So far this has been the best . The only drawback is there is no Air conditioning on the first / main level. Could be an issue during the warmer times of the year. The second floor is very hot and is musty . we did not use the second floor , so for us it was not an ssie.
we really enjoyed the home, which was perfectly appointed and exceeded all of our expectations. the proximity to the beach and coziness of the house were our favorites!
The property is great, even better than the photos. Decor is cozy and elegant, very well equipped and the location couldn't be better. We had a great time. The house is perfect for adults and for the children.
Such a beautiful house with all the amenities! We loved the location and beautiful outdoor deck. Lovingly maintained and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay there again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very comfortable beds. Great kitchen and outdoor dining areas. Comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces for everyone to have some time to themselves as well as time together. Would love to come back.
Everything about the rental was seamless, adding to the relaxing vibe of the property. This charming house has all of the amenities, and everything has been done with such great care and attention to detail. Loved everything about it and can’t wait to go back!
