About this house rental

**For your safety we have instituted rigorous disinfecting processes and are enforcing a gap between departing and arriving guests.**

This spacious 1920s Spanish Colonial home was completely renovated by its owner/architect. Handmade tile, sandstone walls, original fireplaces and a stunning setting nestled under a 150 year-old oak tree make this home extraordinary. Private location with many patios and shady spots for relaxing. Expansive views of the ocean, Channel Islands, and red tile rooftops of downtown Santa Barbara. With 3,400 sq ft of living space, you will have plenty of room to spread out. This one-of-a-kind home is a fabulous combination of the traditional and historic coupled with completely updated modern amenities.

Located in the prestigious Lower Riviera residential area, you are just a 15 minute walk to the fantastic restaurants and boutiques on State Street, the hub of downtown life, and a 15 minute walk to the historic Santa Barbara Mission. Just a 10 minute drive to the beaches, Wharf, and Funk Zone, the new Santa Barbara hot spot. Our location is ideal for exploring all Santa Barbara has to offer.

30 day minimum rental period as required by the city of Santa Barbara.

This place was great. Loved the architecture and the patio views. We spent most of our time there! The beach accessories were also so helpful and increased our enjoyment at the beach. Great value!

My family had a wonderful stay at Casa Riviera. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood and close to downtown State Street, the pier, East Beach, the Funk Zone, golfing, and pretty much anything you'd like to do in Santa Barbara. The home is beautifully done and very clean and comfortable. The bedrooms were great with comfortable beds and high quality linens and having so many bathrooms ensured my entire family could all get ready at the same time for a night on the town after a fun day at the beach. Connie, the property manager, was very nice and incredibly responsive, and the property owners, Jennifer and Jorg, were a delight to work with. We had a couple of issues that were responded to and addressed immediately. Overall an excellent stay and I wouldn't hesitate to stay at this property in the near future. One last note - the owners are doing some landscaping on the lower grounds of the property and while it wasn't completed during our stay, I imagine when finished it will make the home even more spectacular than it already is.

Beautiful, fun house

This is a quality property, a most unique house built around a huge old oak tree. From many windows it feels like being in a tree house. Many steps everywhere which was fine for us but would be difficult for people who can't use stairs easily. I can recommend without hesitation.

Great find!
Great find!
Beautiful home with a brand new feel. Home provides plenty of space, is well appointed and gives everyone space of their own when not in the large living room and kitchen area. Well located within walking distance of Mission Santa Barbara, several parks and downtown State Street. Located in a very quiet area with incredible views. A great place to stay to get the full Santa Barbara feel.

Without hesitation, this Santa Barbara experience will be well remembered. Although our stay was for two weeks, our family of four left feeling like it wasn't long enough. The home is located within easy walking distance to amazing parks (great for our kids) and strolling. Another block and you're at the famed State Street and downtown core with coffee, restaurants, and shopping. Head out the house in another direction and find yourself at the Mission and Rose Garden. The slight hill one must walk to reach the home affords you an incredible view of the city....close enough to make out details on the white plaster walls and red tile roofs but high enough to see the Pacific and sailboats. The authentic, Spanish-styled house oozes with charm, detail, and warmth. The massive oak tree that entangles itself through arched stairways and plaster walls makes the home feel like it's always been there. The rooms are perfect, beds comfortable, and views of garden and full of light. Bathrooms, laundry, kitchen....all well equipped and in great working order. Although we enjoyed restaurants, we also found ourselves using the kitchen often, sitting on the adjacent deck sipping wine and enjoying the view. We can't wait to return next year for another stay at this home in Santa Barbara.
