Our stay in Montecito was spectacular. The property was expansive so that two very active small grandkids and four adults could all partake in their preferred activity without negatively impacting others. The pool was great for an afternoon swim after sightseeing or beach time. The views were amazing during the day and also at night when relaxing by the firepit. It was all we wanted and more.....and would certainly like to come back.

This home was exactly as described and a perfect getaway while visiting family. Many homes you rent feel sterile - not this one. You feel right at home immediately. And the view…it was amazing, as was the owner’s communication. We look forward to returning again.

The house was beautiful, multiple seating areas outside with plenty of shade, and 2 fire pits (altho we didn't use them). It is well-maintained. I was impressed with the fact that it was well-stocked as opposed to other places we have stayed.
My daughter has to be completely gluten-free, and we had options for 2 other besides the main one so we were able to avoid any contamination.
The property manager, Vonna, was easily reachable and very responsive. Unfortunately, the pool wasn't usable, issues with the heater, and although she tried to have it fixed while we were there, we maybe had one day, altho it didn't seem to maintain the temperature.
I would suggest that perhaps they should consider replacing the mattresses, they're ok but somewhat worn. Santa Barbara was easily accessible, we had a great time. We would absolutely return as it was very comfortable.

We were in SB for our daughters wedding and needed a place for the immediate family (3 couples) as well as open space for the bride and bridemaids to get ready all morning the day of the wedding. This place was absolutely perfect! 3 bedrooms each with their own bath. Huge kitchen / dining area / living room open space with ceiling to floor windows over looking the SB coastline. Everyone wants to come back, even the extended family members that stopped by throughout our stay. 5 Stars all the way.

Everything was easy, location was great. Spent time on the back decks enjoying the views. Loved the layout of the house and all the unique gathering areas. Vintage style took me back in time in a good way.

Stayed here with a group of longtime friends for a getaway in Santa Barbara. The house had plenty of space for all 6 of us, is well provisioned and equipped - but the jewel in this crown is the humongous deck with killer views. We will hopefully be back.

Exceptional says it all. Spectacular 180 degree view of the ocean, pool, well appointed kitchen and decorated beautifully. Family came with grand kids, layout of house was perfect with a suite bedroom, master bedroom and spacious bedroom for our family. Vonna, our host was terrific, communication was accurate, quick and cordial. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Wonderful time to spend with family and friends in celebrating my son's PHD celebration at UCSB.

There is a pretty good description of this property online but actually staying there exceeded our expectations. This is a unique property. It has character, stupendous views from almost every room, well stocked kitchen (appliances, dishes, silverware), spacious accommodations, wonderful landscaping, and a sense of delightful history in all the artifacts and paintings in every room. This one succeeds despite somewhat flakey WiFi, no easy way to use airplay, no heating in the pool. But we loved it and had a wonderful time.

We had such a wonderful time in this dreamy mid century modern home. Didn't want to leave! Everything was simply perfect. The minute we stepped onto the property we were in awe. The view is spectacular, every single room is lovely and comfortable with more amenities than we could ask for. So stylish, comfortable and inviting. And the location was the best.
A quick drive to Coast Village Road and downtown Santa Barbara. Vonna was so lovely and went out of her way to make our stay perfect. Thank you Vonna! We will be back and can't wait!

I cannot say enough about this property and its location. The floor to ceiling windows in all rooms mean you are captivated by the stunning views of the Pacific which are only bettered when you go on to the beautiful decking area.
The house feels like home as soon as you enter and is without doubt the best equipped house I have rented. Vonna the owner was a joy to deal with and I would not hesitate in recomending this property to anyone that planned to visit this area.

The home and the location were spectacular! The home was beautifully decorated and check in was easy. The home was a total delight from start to finish. Every room was beautifully decorated, the place had all the amenities that one could ask for and the outside deck and the view were truly breathtaking! We cannot wait until we return and thanks again for allowing us to share your magnificent home!

Dreamy Montecito
My family and I had a wonderful stay in Montecito! The property is very clean, stylish, and has everything you need to have a comfortable family vacation. The view across the golf course to the ocean is perfect, and the large outdoor area is lovely and inviting. My niece had a great time plying in the pool. Montecito and Santa Barbara restaurants, beaches, sights, and shopping areas are all very close, and we loved hiking to the hot springs.
We would definitely stay here again!

One word: Fantastic
This was our first trip to California as a family from the east coast. We'd asked nearly everyone we knew from CA where to visit and unanimously everyone said go to Santa Barbara. We have young adult children (24,18 and 18) so finding someplace that everyone will like is always challenging. This place was it. I can go on and on abut Santa Barbara as it was well worth the visit but the best part about it was THIS HOUSE. Here it is in a nutshell:
First of all - it is huge. There were 5 of us but it always felt like you had so much space both inside and out.
The outside garden is truly amazing. There are 5 different places you can sit outside to drink coffee. You couldn't see any of the neighboring gardens - SUPER PRIVATE.
The kitchen, living room, bedrooms, bathrooms (best shower ever) all had everything you needed and then some. Everything made you feel like you were staying in a castle.
I guess the best way to put it is that it was EASY to stay here. Everything is more fun when it is easy.
If you've made it this far - here are the 2 BEST things about it:
1. The location. You are 5 minutes from downtown Montecito and 8 minutes to Santa Barbara meaning you had enough space to separate from both of those areas, but you could be there in an instant. I would NOT recommend staying somewhere where you could "walk to the beach" - just too busy and crowded for us. Here - you don't have that as the neighborhood is super cool and in the perfect place.
2. The owners - we were fortunate to meet the owner who also manages the property. She gave us all kinds of great info on what to do, where to go, where not to go, and also some background on her fascinating house. She made us truly feel at home.
Bottom line - if you are visiting from anywhere - stay in this house - it's fantastic and you won't regret it.

Blissful
My family and I had an absolutely wonderful weeklong stay at this midcentury-modern masterpiece. Spacious, architecturally special house with artistic landscaping, a pool, and a stunning view! Owner was welcoming and very responsive. An eight-minute drive from wonderful restaurants, supermarket, gym, etc. and 10 minutes from a lovely, swimmable beach. Will definitely try to return for a future holiday.

Family celebrations at memory making property!!
The views!! Had a spectacular stay at this property! Vonna was a pleasure to work with and easy to communicate with. Our family was together celebrating retirement, birthdays, anniversaries and all being in the same place after a couple of years. Great indoor and outdoor spaces to all be together along with spaces for each family to have their own place. We’ve all said we look forward to going back again! Outdoor spaces of all types for gathering and relaxing and the view from inside, the pool, and all deck areas are phenomenal! Kitchen is beyond well-appointed. All of this while being close to so many things to do! Many memories made!

Best view in Santa Barbara!
The property was beautiful, very private and quiet...perfect for our small group. Lots of space to be together and to have time alone. Only issue was getting in and out through the garage door as the keypad wasn't working, but I understand it is something they are working to fix. Otherwise, this home has the best view in all of Santa Barbara and a great deck (actually several) from which to enjoy it!

Spring Break in Santa Barbara
Our family of 4 had a great stay in this house that is well laid out and well appointed. Great indoor and outdoor space and excellent location. All the kitchen gadgets, goodies, spices and more to make cooking easy. Beds were comfortable, views were spectacular, neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. I do intend to return to this house!

Already looking for a reason to go back!
We were traveling for a friend's 50th birthday and had a combination of plans around town and at the house and I must admit it was hard to leave the house! There was plenty of well appointed outdoor space that we enjoyed and the kitchen was equipped to entertain and dine at home. If you are looking to leave the house, it was a short ride to the Funk Zone and State St. with so many great restaurants nearby to enjoy.

Italian family reunion!
The property was outstanding, all amenities as advertised. Location and view were beyond our expectations and we felt so at home, it was hard to leave. Everyone had their own cozy space and the outdoor ambiance was tropical and peaceful. Yet there were tons of activities to do in Santa Barbara...

Once you're there, you'll never want to leave!
This house was even better than described. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable for all guests but the views were the crown jewel of this property...during our stay, we didn't want to leave.

Like your own private resort
We were a group of 3 couples and had a lovely stay at this property. We had 80 degree weather in November so we were able to fully enjoy the pool, bbq and outdoor areas. It felt like our own private resort. There are many wonderful outdoor areas to explore, the bedrooms are well spaced and each has its own bathroom. The kitchen is fully stocked and there's plenty of areas to dine. The host was easy to communicate with and helpful. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Stunning Views, Cozy Home
My group and I enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. There were endless places to relax, have me-time, meditate, etc. The fountain and firepit make for a beautiful night outside. The views were gorgeous and plenty of space to relax outside as well.
The home had pretty much all we needed for prepping meals and even a nice surround sound system for music and entertaining.
The layout and design of the home are aesthetically pleasing.
The neighborhood is nice and very peaceful. The location is close to the freeway and plenty of shops and restaurants.
I would recommend for family or friends getaway. It is definitely a peaceful retreat!

What a view
This property was absolutely stunning. The master bedroom is certainly the best, with every bedroom having a million dollar views of the Pacific Ocean and Channel Islands. The pool deck and patio areas are inviting and comfortable. Santa Barbara's attractions were a very short drive away. We will definitely return.

Fabulous Retreat
At the last minute I was looking for a getaway trip for my wife's 65th birthday and came across this fabulous home. The location was perfect for wonderful views all day long and everything you could imagining needing was provided for you be it outside or in the kitchen, bathroom or entertainment. The home is situated in a neighborhood of very high end homes which made it even a nicer treat for us.
We have stayed in many vacation homes over the years and have found the majority of them to be rather generic in their colors and decorations. Well as you can tell this home is not just generic, it is full of color and family history. There are photos that make you feel like you are visiting friends and you become consumed with what they have been up to over the years. If you are a classic car nut like I am you will be taken back in time with all the treasures that are on the bookshelves...and what is in the garage! It was a treat to be able to spend some time looking around inside, or just relaxing on the deck and pool in perfect warm weather!
Vonna emailed us immediately after the booking and and we were provided with all the necessary information on getting to and into the property, where everything was that you need for your stay and how to use all the different appliances and electronics. She also provided a comprehensive package of eating establishments, sight seeing locals and anything else you can imagine possibly needed. Most importantly she made you feel like no matter how minor of a need or problem you may have (we had none!) she was there by phone or email!! Thank you Vonna for sharing you family home with us.

The Perfect Place
My husband and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary in Montecito and Vonna's lovely home made it a very special occasion. Our adult kids joined us for the first week; we had the second week alone. The view of the Pacific O is beautiful, from the home, the decks with fire pit, and the pool. The back garden has a waterfall, grill, table and chairs and yet another fire pit. It is the most well equipped and well appointed home we have ever rented, anywhere. The area is lovely with many activities to participate in and Vonna was very attentive to our requests and needs. We are planning our return trip!

Vonna was great to work with, the house, pool, location and vibe were perfect… We have stayed a number of times in the hills and this place was the best, the views are to die for and it’s close to town…I’d both recommend it and will also be planning on coming back next year!
