Wonderful stay at this home perched high above Santa Barbara in the Riviera section. Clean, comfortable home with all the amenities (everything for the coffee-freak like me!). In the evenings we watched the raptors soar over the sun-soaked valley and woke in the mornings to the parting of spring fog. Yoga on the large deck, walks to El Encanto for an afternoon cocktail, short but winding drives up&down the SB hills: to go hiking, walk along the beach, hit up a new restaurant, escape to the botanical gardens, etc. Everything we wanted from a quiet rental. Did I mention the 6ft Buddha statue with flowing water and hummingbirds buzzing about? Groovy. Thanks for the stay!

This was one of the best houses I have ever rented. The decor was spotless, elegant, and welcoming. The views were unbelievable. So many great places to flop down and relax, whether in the living room sectional or in one of the mini seating areas outside on the deck. The sunsets were simply unbelievable. I felt like I was living in a villa in Italy. Also, the beds were super comfortable as was the bedding. I’m already dreaming about my return to this house and Santa Barbara.

Me and my husband had the best time in this light, clean and absolutely gorgeous house in the upper riviera. We walked to the beautiful El Encanto for dinner the first night and had brunch there the last day. Very convenient location, in a great neighborhood.
Breathtaking view, just minutes away from town, hiking and beach. Yet very quiet and private. The outdoor space was very nice and we spent a lot of time in there comfortable outdoor sofa.
Very nicely decorated and inviting home. Great host helped out with the few questions we had. Will definitely rent again!

I thought I had rented a 3 bedroom place (I was shown all three bedrooms on a walk through 6 months prior to arriving for our stay. Upon arrival, we found one of the bedrooms locked (making out a two bedroom, so we had to set up a make shift office in the living room). When we asked the property manager about this, she was quite smug and merely pointed out that the contract I signed was for a two bedroom. I was never told it would only be two bedrooms. Had I known, I would not have booked it for the price. We also were told we had to clean out our own stopped up shower drains (this occurred within one week of our arriving, so NOT from our use)! The final straw was when we alerted the property manager to a tear in the one of the FIVE sun sails (shade awnings) which was occurring due to wind. We were told we should remove the canvas sun sails (which provided critical shade on the beautiful view porch) to protect them. It was installed semi- permanently, and required a step ladder and considerable un-doing of the electrical market lights which were interwoven. We were told if the management company were to do it, they would have to charge us. Basically they wanted us to take these sun sails down it down and put them back up every time there was a wind event...which happens often on the Riviera in Santa Barbara!

Santa Barbara Picturesque Hideaway
My family and I loved this beautiful mountainside property! The pictures don’t do it justice, the views are breathtaking and the property is just a peaceful and relaxing place to reset! Lynn the property manager was so communicative and went out of her way to make sure the lights were on in the house because we arrived very late the first day.
Beds and all amenities were exceptional. The main bathroom is gorgeous and modern.
The outdoor patio is a true gem and a great extension of the house! Everything is a short drive from the house. My family and I enjoyed a beautiful and restful stay!! We would stay here again and recommend this place to family and friends!

A must stay!!
My husband and I had truly the most amazing stay at this home. It is even more beautiful in than the pictures online. The outdoor living area is where we spent most days l, and nights (thanks to the heater) reading and hanging out out there. The interior is also beautiful and so thoughtfully decorated. The views are amazing. Made for a great great vacation. We already can’t wait to book again and recommend to all of our friends and families who will be traveling to Santa Barbara.

Felt like home
I graduated from UCSB 2 decades ago, and make it a poi t to come back as much as I can. We decided to spend the Thanksgiving weekend in Santa Barbara with family and rented this house. Felt like home. Great neighborhood, great views from the backyard, and apart from the weather, and a few hiccups with the smoke alarm, the visit and stay was flawless. Communication with Lynn was excellent. We will be back, hopefully to a sunny Santa Barbara!

Beautiful Home! It was very spacious and had a warm inviting vibe. Great Décor and had everything we needed. Really enjoyed the deck and view. Nice clean home. We would definitely recommend this property!

Great location, but condition of home not great
We had a great time in Santa Barbara and the location is great. The house still needs a lots of home improvements(oven very old, 2nd bathroom, windows did not always work). The beds are very comfortable. No air should be noted with the heat. We had to add outdoor umbrella to enjoy the outdoor seating and fans for indoors. Overall I feel the positives were more than negatives.

Great property in great neighborhood!
We enjoyed staying in this home so close to the downtown with a great view on the deck of the harbor. It’s a bonus that they allow pets and yet the home is very clean!

Spectacular Ocean View
Four friends traveling together, we soaked in the sun and beautiful ocean view from this clean, comfortable Santa Barbara home. Since we cooked most meals we appreciated the well stocked kitchen. Everything we needed and more.
The manager was very responsive with questions and promptly had a shower faucet problem fixed for us.
I will return.

Indoor-Outdoor Living at its Best
Our family enjoyed a relaxing week at this beautiful home. We loved the indoor/outdoor living room and deck for relaxing mornings, dining, and soaking up the stunning views! The house worked well for our young children, who were able to play inside/outside with minimal stairs to negotiate. Comfortable beds, linens and well-appointed home. Lynn and staff at SB rentals were great to work with and were so helpful in a last minute cancellation/booking situation.
