Such a cute little house! Great location! We walked to the shops and beach many times. We enjoyed the cute covered patio in the backyard and while it was a small house it was great to have 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms since there was 6 of us. We had spent the previous 3 days camping at the beach in Malibu and headed to Santa Barbara to attend a concert at the Bowl so we definitely appreciated the charm and comfort of the house. The host was very friendly and responsive and allowed us to check in a little early which was super appreciated.

Convenient location. Immaculate. This could easily be a much more attractive property! More towels, decent toilet paper, etc. Noisy dogs next door.
Close proximity to downtown Santa Barbara and especially the area of State St. where most of the activities are. Home is an older home that has been updated and provides more seclusion than a hotel. Full refrigerator and kitchen and two bathrooms help when multiple occupants are trying to get ready at the same time. I would definitely use it again and owner is very accommodating!

Lovely location and property! The home is small, but the outdoor area added a lot of extra space and was a great place to spend time. Very close to State Street and reasonable walk to beaches. Street parking wasn’t too much of an issue, we were always able to find somewhere within a block or two. Gave it four stars instead of five because it was missing some things that would’ve made it more comfortable for our week-long stay for six people; more towels, trash bags, more kitchen essentials, etc. Otherwise great and would highly recommend!

Outstanding stay in heart of Santa Barbara!
From initial comms with us to checkout, this was an outstanding bungalow stay for our daughter's wedding weekend. Virandra was a gracious host, answered any questions we had. Compact yet enough space for our adult family. Great covered patio in the rear, and sunny seating in front. 5 minute walk to State street and 20 min walk to the beach. Will definitely stay here next time in Santa Barbara!

This property can comfortably hold six adults who are spending most of the time walking around town. The amenities are great and it is in a very convenient location. The host is extremely responsive and kind. One of the better places I've stayed!

Great place and Location but no designated parking
This place is located close to State street. We were able to walk to the Funk zone, the beach and all over State Street. There are electric bikes right across the street which are very convenient.The place is clean, and looks just as pictured. We enjoyed our stay.I did not give it a 5 because there is no onsite parking, which I was not aware of based on the description of the place. It’s street parking only and the local residents keep the streets full with their own cars. IF I had known before hand I would give it a 5 rating because I would had planned for the lack of parking.We did find parking the first night right across the street but we had to move the cars before 9am due to street cleaning.I ended up parking in the public parking lot 3 blocks down, which does have overnight parking.

Pros: the location is excellent, being walking distance to State St and tons of popular spots. The host was very responsive. Overall good valueCons: the beds were not very comfy. Wifi kept going out. Showers were pretty small and it was unclear which was soap/shampoo as they were unlabeled.

Great Times in Santa Barbara
The house was just as described and very clean. The hosts communicated well, easy check in. There was some traffic on the street on the weekend nights but didn’t bother us and we’d definitely recommend this cute house for a family getaway.

Great place just off State St.
Myself and two roommates from UCSB 20yrs ago were having amemorial trip for a 4th roommate who passed away recently. We were just looking for something downtown close to everything where each of the 3 of us could have our own bed. This property fit the bill perfectly. Each of us had our own room and a queen sized bed which was ideal. The kitchen and living room area are not huge but for the small amount of hours we spent in there in the evenings it was still plenty of room for us. Comunications from the property manager as far as check in goes were fantastic. They even proactively asked me if I needed an early check in which was fantastic. The home was incredibly clean upon our arrival and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great location as far as being close to State St. and all it has to offer. Parking is an issue. The barking dogs next door were a little irritating. No oven was not a problem for us but might be for someone else. This is an older house that shows its age.
