    This property is in an excellent, very safe location.We walked to almost everything in SB. The apartment was a perfect size for us. The bed was very comfortable & the bedroom storage was great.The house is nicely decorated. The kitchen is especially well equipped & even included lots of spices & cofffee. The outside patio is great as it is surrounded by lush green plants & a hedge that offers privacy from the street. Debbie was very good about giving information needed. It is a great place. We highly recommend it!

    Divine. Slept so peacefully in this quiet sanctuary with private garden, fountain and barbecue situated just blocks from cafes, Funk Zone and State Street shopping. The kitchen was stocked with a wide array of spices, all appliances and every baking/cooking pan I could need. Dishes were fun pottery and antiques, enjoyed! There was both heat and AC! Manager Debbie was just a text away and was ready to assist anyway she could. All was a friendly vacation retreat !! Highly recommend.

    This is our third stay at this property. We wouldn't stay in any other while visiting Santa Barbara. It is cozy, comfortable, fully stocked, the owners who we had the chance to meet are great. The location couldn't be more perfect - 5+ stars!

    OK, this is a great location. Walk to State Street ( Santa Barbara's Main Street (dozens of shops and restaurants). One block to a full grocery store. On-site parking, great in an area that is busy during business hours. There were two of us and the unit was perfect for us. We like to cook in our rentals and this place has pots, pans and dinner settings. The unit manager was friendly, helpful and very responsive to our needs. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

    Older house divided into 2-3 units, clean and location is fantastic. The unit has a/c which was nice and comfortable. Host is available and they take care of the little things that make staying comfortable. EV car charging is a big plus for those travelling in an EV.
