Zen Cottage Hideaway - 1 mile from the Beach, and 1 mile from Downtown...

Charlie is a great host. The property is immaculate and up to date. Great location between downtown and west cliff area.

We stayed for a few days, and were sad to leave! Everything was perfect, better than what we were expecting. Charlie was extremely kind, and available to us. Could not ask for a better host. Looking forward to coming back!

We stayed at this lovely, peaceful cottage for a long weekend while in town for my cousin’s wedding. It was the perfect place for my family - great location close to everything, very comfortable and clean with plenty of space, and Charlie was very helpful and accommodating. We enjoyed relaxing on the patio/deck and the beautiful gardens. I would recommend staying here. Thanks Charlie!

The house was very well appointed with everything we needed and had plenty of space for myself, husband, and 5-month old son. There was a pack n play and some baby books for us to use too. The host Charlie was very nice and accommodating. Would stay here again!

We stayed at Zen Cottage while in Santa Barbara for our son’s graduation. Location is convenient very close to downtown and not too far from UCSB. Cottage is small but even with 4 people we did not feel crowded. We BBQed one night, enjoying the outside eating area. I would book this rental again should we come back.

This property was great for our family getaway to Santa Barbara over Memorial Day weekend. The home was exactly as shown in the listing. Perks: Great location, easy drive to the beach and to downtown, and secluded with private deck. The bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom were all clean and well maintained. Charles was a great host and reached out weeks in advance to walk me through the property and answer any questions we had. Our family will definitely look into staying here again for future trips to Santa Barbara!

Wow, just so much gratitude for Charlie and providing such a peaceful, impeccably clean and beautiful rental. A few highlights: great lay out, gorgeous mountain views, very well thought out remodel with lovely Italian appliances. RO water, great air filtration, a good place for people with environmental allergies, sweet nature views, good lighting, comfy beds. Can’t wait to go back!

We loved our stay at the Zen Cottage Hideaway! From the beautiful view, outdoor deck, comfy beds, charming decor, and being spotlessly clean this stay gets 5 stars! We will definitely be back!

Well equipped cottage in lovely area surrounded by vegetation, nice deck off kitchen, good size bedrooms, everything in top condition. Easy 5-minute drive to State Street shopping & restaurants. Will return!

What a trip! Our Vrbo and the city of Santa Barbara exceeded our expectations! Charlie was great at making recommendations and made us feel welcomed. Very comfortable beds and over all living quarters. We will definitely be staying there again! We loved the instructions that were left for us and recommendations of what to see and places to eat. The Boathouse was our favorite! Thank you for a wonderful experience in Santa Barbara, Charlie!

We loved our stay! The property is comfortable and quiet, just as pictured. The owner is friendly and responsive to guests' needs. We would definitely return to this property.
