Hidden gem in centrally located Santa Barbara

Inaccurate VRBO website description required my adult daughter & spouse to share an uncomfortable double pullout sofa bed. Website listed: 4 bedrooms for 1 King, 1 Queen, 1 Twin, 1 Double Sofa Bed and 1 Queen. I booked the property for three adult couples and 3 month infant and expected a second Queen bed. Upon arrival we couldn't find it and when I messaged the host she said the Queen was the pullout sofa. I told her it was a Double, as accurately described on the website, and she was defensive and asked where I got the description and said I've never had anybody ever mention expecting three queens. I sent her the website description on 11/27 and she didn't reply. The second Queen was still listed as of 12/5. I requested a rate adjustment, encouraging her by saying I hoped to leave a positive review, and still no reply. It appears the property is owner-occupied when there are no renters since closets, countertops, and drawers are full of personal belongings. Property was surface-clean, though upholstery and drapes were very dusty and this property should be avoided if occupants have allergies. Kitchenware needs a deep clean. Bathrooms had just one roll of toilet paper and no backstock so we had to buy more. Location was a relatively easy walk to town. Beautiful and well maintained yard. This is my first experience with an inaccurate VRBO property description and unhelpful host.

The pictures don’t do this place justice, the property is SO beautiful!! It was perfect and the host is super easy to reach out to with any questions. definitely book!!

Host was very helpful when we lost power (briefly). It was a tranquil spot to retreat to during a packed weekeend of wedding events! Would stay here again when visiting Santa Barbara!

The home and property were beautiful. Usually, homes for rent scale back on decor inside and landscaping on the outside. Not this home. The grounds were incredible, something out of Better Homes & Gardens.. French chateau. The interior had everything we needed plus exquisite decorations from all over the world. Very well maintained and in a perfect, central and safe neighborhood.

Love the place. Sooo clean, great beds and linens. Winderful vibe and incrediblae backyard. Catherine was great, very flexible and accommodating. Highly recommend. 5 stars

Five of us ladies went for my sisters 40th bday weekend. We could not believe it was a vacation rental, absolutely gorgeous place.Easy Walk to downtown. Beds and linens are luxury, has everything you need. Loved the fireplace and kitchen, Grounds are stunning.

This 1920’s cottage home is amazing! It is definitely not for children as it is filled with treasures that appear to be from a lifetime of collecting. It’s a bit eclectic visually but ever so interesting. The kitchen and bathrooms are updated and modern. The home was clean and comfortable. We especially loved the beautiful gourmet kitchen. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous and private. It’s a great location in an upscale neighborhood. We loved our stay in this lovely home.
