The house is everything you see in the pictures—and so much more! It's located in a very quiet neighborhood, just a short walk from one of the most beautiful dog-friendly (even off-leash) beaches in California. Cozy and perfect for a relaxing stay!The hot tub is actually newer and more modern than it appears in the pictures

My family from around the country met in Santa Barbara for a family reunion. The location and the property were perfect for us. We would stay here again!

Enjoyed the house much. Very convenient to all places we wanted to go. Kitchen was good to cook in since we cooked a holiday dinner. The coffee was great. Very nice and clean except for a couple of pots that needed rewashing. Definitely recommend!

We stayed here with our two grown children and their partners over a long July 4th weekend. You can walk to the dog beach and it is about 12 minutes into Santa Barbara town. The beds were comfy and the kitchen incredibly well stocked. The outdoor fire pit and hot tub were much enjoyed.

Our 3-generation family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed staying at this home. Great location and easy access to all the sights in Santa Barbara. Particularly enjoyed the fireplace outside!

Clean and easy place to stay. We didn’t have a need to communicate to the management, so really can’t comment on that but the VRBO app doesn’t allow a blank rating. Quick walk to the beach and busy restaurant right there on the beach. The location was a little far away from the main part of SB city for my taste, but for some people that might be a bonus. Walking distance to Douglas Family Presetve and Elings Park.

This house was perfect for our Santa Barbara visit. Great space. Well appointed. Wonderful location. We took many wonderful walks down to the beach and on the nearby new path.

We stayed here with family for UCSB graduation weekend. This is a great home in a nice residential neighborhood near the beach. The unit was incredibly clean and in perfect condition. The jacuzzi and gas grill were added bonuses. The kitchen is well appointed with pretty much everything anyone could need. It is not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Highly recommend!!!

We had a great time at this property. It was well stocked with everything you need to enjoy SB and this home. Hendry’s beach was a fun easy walk and the restaurant there has yummy food! We also loved walking in the preserve. Beautiful vistas from there enjoy and lots of dogs. The hot tub was nice to come back to and the kitchen had everything we needed. The store is an easy drive from the house for anything you could need. It was great that our two teens got their own rooms (comfy beds) and we enjoyed playing board games that were there. Would love to stay again when we are back in SB!

This property worked out very nicely for my family of four. The location is fantastic, as it is close to everything (including Arroyo Burro Beach and Boathouse at Hendry’s Beach, both a 10-minute walk). The home is older which comes with a few minor drawbacks (floor creaks, no AC) , but the neighborhood is peaceful and the home is clean and charming. It has everything you might need. Overall we recommend this property and would stay here again in the future.

This property is very pleasant, great location near beach and parks. The property manager at Santa Barbara Vacation Rentals was not helpful at all. I would not rent from this company again.

We rented as 4 adults and 2 young children. This property completely met our expectations. It was very clean, check-in was a breeze and the property was spacious and comfortable. Even though our stay was in February, we were able to take advantage of the beautiful outdoor patios. The outdoor fireplace and patio heater made for a comfortable dinner an evening when temps cooperated. The mattresses were very comfortable; something very important to us fir our two week stay. The kitchen is adequately equipped for meal preparation. It is very well equipped for making and serving cocktails and appetizers.🙂 There are no dishes or utensils for children nor pack in play available so plan to bring your own. One of the absolute best features of this property is location. This quiet dead end is less than two blocks from Hendry’s Beach which is popular for dog walkers and lovely for walking and beautiful sunsets. There is a restaurant right on the beach. (There are those who sunbathe there but it is not the best SB has to offer.) There are trails for walking 1 block in either direction from the house and the property is an easy walk or VERY quick drive to Elings Park and its many trails. Any SB restaurant or shopping venture is no more than 10-12 minutes. Wi-fi was excellent. There are four large TVs although we never turned them on in beautiful SB. We will absolutely not hesitate to rent this property again when visiting along with additional family members.

We had a great stay at the property. It is as described and probably one of the cleanest properties we've stayed at. Fantastic location and SBVR was a great to work with.

This was a great house just up the street (a short walk) from Hendrys Boathouse and the beach. Just a 7min drive from all of the downtown chaos etc but nice that the grocery and whatever needs you might want are nearby. We would definitely come back. It’s a nice quiet neighborhood.

We loved staying in this home. It fit our purposes perfectly. Great to be within walking distance of the beach. Easy drive to downtown Santa Barbara. The outside space was very nice. Very comfortable furnishings. Kitchen was very well stocked. Impeccably clean. We would absolutely choose this place again.

We fell in love with Santa Barbara and this house! The space is cozy and clean. The back yard is private and secure. We loved and used both the inside and outdoor fireplaces. Being able to walk to the beach and the BoatHouse was an added plus. We will definitely stay again! Thank you!

While in Santa Barbara for a wedding, a party of 8 stayed in this unbelievable property. Clean, fun, and an easy 10 minute walk to the beach, and restaurants- we could have not asked for anything better! If we are ever back on the west coast- this property is a must!
