Absolutely perfect!

This was such a beautiful, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. It is even better than the pictures! It was fantastic to sit out on the patio terrace in the morning and evening. The view is incredible. The shared pool was wonderful and the hosts were beyond accommodating and helpful! What a place!

Wonderful stay

Beautiful, comfortable place. Great amenities, great view. Tom and Eileen were very responsive if we had a question or needed anything, and were very generous about sharing the pool, fruit trees, and other non-private areas on the property.

A beautiful retreat!

The place is wonderful! Two of us best friends had a get away for Easter week and it was so relaxing. Tom and Eileen left a plate of fresh-baked goodies and a chilled bottle of wine for us, then a few days later a cute carton of fresh-laid eggs. We felt so pampered! The weather was constantly shifting, but we found the property allowed for everything. We really liked the bird-feeder, and sweeping views. Pool and spa were lovely. So easy, and the hosts seemed very amenable. Will visit again!

Could Not Have Been Better!

We had a wonderful time on this vacation and our stay here was wonderful!Tom & Eileen were fantastic hosts who answered what few questions we had very promptly. The check in/checkout process was easy and uneventful. All appliances were modern and in perfect working order and we loved the W/D set up. Great parking with wonderful privacy. The views of the ocean and surroundings were exquisite and I loved having the bird feeder right outside of the property. Would definitely book with them again!

Lovely Cottage, Lovely Views

We loved staying in this beautiful cottage! We are a family of four with 11 and 14 year old children and we were there for a week. The expansive views make the cottage feel bigger than it is. Although we didn’t do much cooking, we prepared simple meals and we had everything we needed. For those looking for info about the kitchen, it was well appointed and lovely. We also enjoyed the bird feeder that’s in the perfect place to provide a show while you’re having breakfast. The owners made us feel very welcome and were responsive when we had questions, and we had plenty of privacy on their shared property. The home is about 5-15 minutes from most major attractions and it felt like a retreat returning there after a day of activities. We hope to stay there again!

Wonderful Santa Barbara Vacation!

What a lovely cottage! My family enjoyed our stay in this peaceful Santa Barbara guest cottage so much. Close proximity to all that SB has to offer and the bonus of a pool and jacuzzi for when you want to be lazy and stay in. The owners were great communicators and the accommodations were lovely. Would stay again in the future!

We spent 4 nights in the very comfortable cottage. Our hosts were extremely helpful and communicative. The house was well-supplied, clean and quiet. Also, the views were amazing, both distant to the ocean and nearby to the birds at the feeder. We would love to stay here again.
