Great, spacious place for a family with little ones.

This is a great rental for families. The entire place was well kept and clean. We didn't use the kitchen to cook but it seemed to have everything you might need. One thing to note is that there is no A/C, which I missed in the property description and may have passed on renting because of it, but they provide plenty of fans so you can cool down the house in the evenings. Location for us was great, and it's in a quiet neighborhood.

Birthday visit

We loved the house. Plenty of room for all of us! Well equipped kitchen! Spent outside of time eating and playing cards at the outside table. Coming from Texas we enjoyed the much cooler weather. 75-80 instead of the 100 plus back at home! Only issue cell service wasn't great but that wouldn't be their fault!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was well maintained and in a wonderful location. It served us well with the many bedrooms and bathrooms and comfortable living room space for gathering. We even made good use the patio and outdoor grilling and dining available. Negatives for the property were the water pressure which was low and inconsistent and not having a sheltered carport available. All in all a very good stay.

Weekend in Santa Barbara

The home is fine. Beds were comfortable and the house was clean. It's more outdated than the photos show. The master bathroom was the most up to date, but the others we're pretty run down. The kitchen had an electric stove that was old and challenging to cook on. If you're just looking for a place to crash overnight it's great, but I would have been disappointed if I were staying for a vacation or weekend getaway.

Family gathering

It’s a nice property in good condition. Quiet neighborhood and convenient to get to. The house was well appointed and had everything we needed. Very convenient in that each group had its own full bath.

Good stay

The house was very stocked, high chair, kids chairs etc. Kitchen stocked well. Really the only issue we had was the AC did not work very well, in the summer this would have been a major issue and the review would have been a 1 star. The response I received from Vecassa was not very encouraging, basically AC is not included in your agreement. Luckily it was October and it was not that hot, they did have fans and we had to sleep with them a few nights. I would stay here again but if in summer make sure AC is working correctly.

Nicely decorated home with 4 bedrooms and beautiful private yard

The house is nicely decorated and with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms it is spacious for up to 8 people. It is a cul de sac in a nice neighborhood close to the beach. The back yard is beautiful and private, with plenty of seating. Overall a very nice place!

Family graduation trip

This property was perfectly located near my sisters house in Goleta. While the property had some wear and tear (stains and tear on kitchen floor and bathroom flooring) it was clean, beds were comfortable, backyard was private and nice, plenty of space for eating and hanging out! I do think the extra fees on this property are quite misleading. Both VRBO and Vacasa charge over $300 each in booking fees, plus cleaning, a parking fee (?) even though the house has a driveway to park in, as well as other unexplained fees aside from taxes. Overall, I would stay in this property again due to the convenient location near family. However, I will be more attentive in comparing the extra fees associated with renting this property versus others.

Goleta Getaway

Overall, the house was clean and met our needs for a family weekend. We rented this house because it had 4 bathrooms. It should be more clearly stated that two of those bathrooms are in the master. It was an interesting layout. But, it worked for us. Also, the kitchen could be a little better stocked with spices, oils, etc. Otherwise, it was a nice house that suited our needs.

Very comfortable and welcoming.

-Lighting poor over dining room table - replace 2700K (yellow) bulbs with 5000K (bright white) led 100W eq. -Master Suite suggestions: 1) Move the TV to wall over fireplace. 2) Move desk from closet to present TV location. This would be handy for working on a laptop. Provide another chair for the desk. 3) Move present TV stand into closet for suitcases. The desk in there was too wide. 4) Did not understand the locked closet in the Master. The hallway closet should be enough for the cleaners. 5) Needed more hangers in the closet. -Loved the dining room table with six chairs. Most VRBO's have a small table with four chairs. Major influence in picking this property. -Loved the patio table with the bench and four chairs. We were able to use these chairs at the dining room table when we had more people for dinner. -Very good kitchen. Comfortable with multiple people cooking. -Great TV in Living Room but should provide at least one subscription service. Maybe there is, but it seemed that it needed an Amazon Prime code to do anything.

Mini-reunion

We were able to get together as a family, since our kids are spread out across the country. The house made it very easy to hang out at will instead of trying to meet in a hotel room or a restaurant. More than enough space in a quiet neighborhood convenient to getting around.

Spacious, uncluttered rental property

The house was spacious and uncluttered and generally clean. the yard was lovely. We checked in Tuesday and I called Wednesday to report problems with the thermostat. Although I reached an agent and received a call from another agent, the problem was not resolved during the stay. There was a complaint by a previous renter about the moldy washer gasket; that was unresolved for our visit. Moreover, the washtub clean had not been run. We resolved both issues ourselves--an unpleasant nuisance. The open shower had a broken shower head holder. In addition, it was impossible to keep the shower from sending water under the washer and as far away as the toilet, even when directing the shower to the back wall and standing as close as possible to the wall. The microwave didn't have sufficient power, the front left range burner did not fully heat, the oven did not fully heat, and the coffeemaker was filthy with built-up coffee residue.

Comfy Stay

The rooms were very comfortable, and so was the living room. Backyard had 2 patio areas that were very cute and great for all of us to sit around and enjoy our time there. The house’s kitchen was fully equipped — but lacked in paper towels for 8 people on a 3 night stay. Bathrooms only had 2 toilet paper rolls each, which I feel needs more (I guess depending on stay). Staff was very good at communicating and helping us with our needs. The biggest room has 2 bathrooms that are oddly plotted on the floor plan and the sink in the also laundry/bathroom in there — leaks a little.
