Loved our stay here in Santa Barbara
This was our first time visiting Santa Barbara so we didn't know what to expect. We wanted to escape the heat in Palm Springs and this was a great place to be in July. I can't say anything more about the house that the other reviews didn't already mention, and that is what convinced us to stay at this location. There is golf and pickleball nearby, and we did several day trips to surrounding areas to explore. The beach is really close and a nice walk to there. We dined out at some of the many nearby restaurants and also cooked many meals. The kitchen is well stocked, there are bikes in the garage, cable tv is provided, the beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are great. Christy is a wonderful host, it was great meeting her and talking about the area. I would definitely stay here again if we pick this area to visit in the future.

Great location, nice house
Excellent location for walking with 8min walk access to beach, up to the beach cliffs, and into the beautiful neighborhood (walk up the hill and look for the secret path to hope ranch neighborhood) . Great backyard for working, eating and hanging out, not sure there is great space for kids but lovely for adults. House is nice, everything worked great, got to go to the garage for access to laundry and dryer but thats just there and they worked great.

Loved everything about this property and wish we could have stayed longer. It was perfect for several of us staying for our class reunion plus family coming at different times. Close to beaches and restaurants. Home was decorated with art from local artists. Be sure to go to the Arts in the Park on Sundays. Christy and Tim responded instantly to any questions we had.

Great Location with Quick and Easy Walk to Beach
We loved our walks on the beach that was just a short walk from the home. The backyard was also a great to sit under the big tree and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. We had a glorious time. Tim and Christy are great hosts and communicate well via VRBO messaging. The home had a great kitchen and we love to cook our meals, especially getting fresh seafood from Santa Barbara Fish Market. Thank you Tim and Christy for a great home and visit to Santa Barbara. P.S. The backyard has some amazing hummingbirds.
