Beautiful, spacious, sunny courtyard studio with fountain in Foothill Estate.

Perfect accommodations and location so my wife and I could visit our son at UCSB and be tourist in Santa Barbara.

Great property, would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at the palace. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do in Santa Barbara and the accommodations were lovely. Our hosts were so gracious, welcoming us at the door when we arrived after dark and giving recommendations for hikes, restaurants, etc. Thank you both for a lovely time!

Perfect and private!! The host was very easy to communicate with. The check in process was very easy. Close enough to downtown but far enough for it to feel peaceful and private. I will definitely stay again.

This was exactly what we needed! Hosts were friendly!

This is a beautiful property. The studio was spacious and clean. You can sit in the garden and have a cup of coffee. The unit is next to the owner’s main house but you still have total privacy. It’s quiet and near a preserve where you can hike. We would stay here again!

We had a wonderful time during our stay at The Palace. The location was tranquil and peaceful outside of the busy-ness of downtown, while still being close by and convenient. The space was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. There was room to relax while we were there and we loved the beautiful courtyard and fountain out front. The hosts were friendly and kind without being intrusive. We enjoyed chatting with them and they gave us good recommendations for breakfast restaurants. I would definitely recommend it!

We were there for my friend's daughter's wedding and had a great time at the palace, appreciate Michael and Christina!!

Such a delightful place to spend a few days! I met Christina the night I arrived and she was very welcoming. The property was very clean, had a well-appointed small kitchen area and bathroom, and had room to relax indoors and outside. It is located in a safe and quiet neighborhood and surrounded by gardens and a patio. It had a large area set apart in the driveway for guest parking. I hope to stay here again!

Gorgeous area and cozy casita!

We very much enjoyed our stay in this comfortable little studio. Walking the nature preserve was nice and the neighborhood featured many beautiful houses and flowers.

My wife and I very much enjoyed our 3-night stay in this very comfortable studio in the foothills at the edge of Santa Barbara. It was as described and depicted in the photos, and very clean. The courtyard was a wonderful place to sit and do some reading. The landscaping all around the yard is gorgeous. Although it's several minutes drive away from downtown Santa Barbara and the harbor, that's as much an advantage as a disadvantage. And right at the bottom of the street is the San Marco Foothill Preserve with access to a number of hiking trails. When we walked down there to explore, we bumped into our hosts, Christina and Michael, who were just finishing their hike and generously lent us their hiking poles (and did so again the next day--thanks!). Except for that chance encounter, we did not see them during our stay, so the whole visit felt very private. But Christina was very responsive whenever I communicated with her. Would definitely stay there again.

This is a studio apartment next to their main home, but the hosts have created a space that feels very much like its own little oasis. The apartment gets lots of natural light, and it is a decent size with a separate walk-in closet on the way to the bathroom. The location is wonderful, only a few minutes from the highway (and so about 15 minutes for virtually everything) but still very secluded and tranquil. The only caveats are that it is a studio apartment: the bed is a pull-down Murphy bed and the kitchen is not set up for serious cooking (small fridge, no oven, etc.) We were there for a two day escape, and it was perfect for us.

A great place to stay during UCSB’s graduation weekend. Not too far from Goleta, close to downtown, roomy enough for hanging out a little with extra family members between events. The accommodations are homey.
