Wonderful property and fantastic view!
Very comfortable home and fabulous view. We were a little alarmed when we arrived and just saw a dirt/gravel driveway and no house!. We found it with no problem and there was plenty of parking. We also loved being able to have our dogs with us.
It was a great location for a family wedding with many events taking place downtown.

Great view and great location. Would recommend.
The view was stunning and was not a very far walk from the beach. Be aware that you’re car may get dirty going down the dirt entrance.

Ocean
View was incredible. Outside under construction when we arrived. No address. Was over 1 hour to get any help. David did adjust price because of the construction. For the price of this rental, this house is in need of a lot of TLC. House was not completely clean and ready when we arrived. David had said he did not know we were arriving, yet he approved our stay. Very confusing.

From the moment we checked in to checkout we were obsessed with the view. My now husband and I spent our time in this home before we tied the knot. It was everything we dreamt of and more. The view was the highlight of the stay. We look forward to staying here again. Hopefully for every anniversary

Disappointed
We have stayed in many different houses but this was the first time we did not receive a key code ahead of time. After the check in time, I emailed, called and texted the owner before finally receiving the key code. Usually there is a manual or paper with wifi password and general instructions but at this place there was nothing. So again I had to contact the owner and received odd instructions.
Inside, the freezer didn’t make ice, the electric kettle didn’t work. The artwork in the master bedroom came crashing down, good thing no toes were injured.
There is obvious lack of communication as a handyman showed up unannounced. He checked on some artwork hanging?
Our last morning the wifi stopped working.
There are many things that need to be worked on especially when you are charging so much for your location!

Family Holiday
Our family got to celebrate thanksgiving here! It was a beautiful & peaceful home. There was plenty of room for 4 adults & 3 kids. The star watching at night was delightful! We really enjoy the location. Grocery store was convenient to pick up last minute items. We all enjoyed it so much. We could look at the view all day long. The TV never got turned on. Wish we booked for longer! Look forward to coming back soon

Amazing and relaxing place
Came here with my family and had a wonderful time. The ocean view is amazing and the drive to downtown santa barbara is only about 10 mins away. I’d recommend this place if you want a nice and peaceful getaway!
