Spanish Mission Home with Pool - Away from Coastal Fog, in Quiet Neighborhood.

Very unique, quiet property, 1950's mission style, comfortable, filled with art and books, beautiful landscaping, gorgeous pool, ate dinner outside with views of sunset over the ocean, wood fires in the living room in the evening, kitchen well stocked. Owners live in guest cottage nearby and are very hospitable and accessible. 10-15 minute easy drive down to center of Santa Barbara and beach. A real treasure.

The house was charming, the pool inviting, and the location breathtaking. Magical property all around.

The place is amazing. Super fun experience and Michael and Hilary were amazing too. The pool was nice and warm at 84 degrees (just from the pool cover). The instructions warn about GPS not being able to find the place however as long as you input the correct street name (ending with “Road”), Google Maps worked perfectly all the way to their driveway

Best vacation house ever! Amazing views and lovely hosts.

We had such a great time staying at this VRBO rental. The house was amazing, the pool was amazing! Great family dinners outside. Kids had a blast! Owners were extremely accommodating and had great communication! Highly recommend!

Hillary was a very accommodating host, and the house was wonderful. Beautiful pool was a huge bonus!

We stayed here during my daughter’s graduation from UCSB. The house is wonderful - clean, great location, beautiful mission style. Would def return.

Very peaceful and homey.

Lovely house, Hillary was alway available with our questions and we really enjoyed our stay.

As usual, Hilary was a fantastic host and the place was immaculate!

Wonderful home for a small group of friends to stay in while in Santa Barbara. Secluded retreat in the hills. Great, convenient location. We are a group of friends who like to travel for long weekends. This home was a calm, peaceful place to stay and then enjoy exploring Santa Barbara and Montecito.

We had a lovely stay in this gorgeous home that really felt like we were away from the city, Beautiful views in an older but well maintained home.

Wonderful house in Santa Barbara. Comfortable beds, super quiet house. Great view and easy to work with property managers.

So peaceful and tranquil - beautiful views!

The photos in the listing did not disappoint. The property is ideally situated in the hills above the mission, away from the coastal fog and surrounded by the mountains. The pool and home are nestled within a lush, beautifully landscaped yard with views above and below. We spent a good portion of our time here in and around the pool, soaking the sun or eating together at the dining table in the shade. The house itself is quaint, full of life, quirky and inviting. We felt so at peace, so relaxed and sort of fell in love with this place. We all felt like we’d found something truly unique and special. I’m a quadriplegic and use a manual wheelchair and I was able to navigate in and around the property with relative ease. The owners Michael and Hilary are genuine, welcoming and accommodating. They agreed to have a wooden ramp built for me to overcome the step to the front door, which gave me full access in and out of the house. They even removed the door to the bathroom in the main bedroom to make it wide enough for my wheelchair. There was ample parking, on flat, paved ground in front of the property, which sits alone at the end of a windy road. I certainly hope to have another opportunity to stay here again.

All was just as described in the listing. The only thing my adult children mentioned was the abundance of notes and signs left in virtually every room of the house (and outside). These reminded us of the things listed in the 20+ page rules notebook on the kitchen table. It's not a big deal to me, but it can be off-putting to some. We ended up making it a running joke. Also one of the owners found reasons to come into the property and pool area each day.

This beautiful Spanish style home has spectacular views of the mountains and ocean. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the pool and the poolside setting. The home is uniquely appointed and the kitchen brings you back in time.

The place exceeded expectations. The views are phenomenal and it was tucked away enough to feel like you got out of the city. The home has so much character and the landscaping is a hidden gem.

Great accomidations for extended family. The property is a botanical garden. Fascinating landscaping maintained by the owner. The location was great for us, close tothe Santa Barnara Womans' Club
