Zuni Tranquillo is a newly redecorated concept design retreat located just minutes from the beach and downtown of Ventura and just a short drive from Ojai, its hot springs, and Santa Barbara.

A 15-minute ride down a beautiful bike path takes you to the sea and the stunning Seaside Wilderness Park where you’ll find hiking trails and coastal views.

Zuni Tranquillo is a lush, aquatic oasis in balmy Ventura that invites you to let go of all your worldly concerns and be tranquillo.

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by a lush, verdant front garden complete with a beautiful Spanish-style fountain, just one of the calming water features in this suburban sanctuary that invite you to leave your worries at the door and enter a space and state of tranquillo.

When you step across the threshold you’ll find yourself in a magical oasis lovingly curated with pieces from the host’s personal collection. Art and objects that reflect her passion for world travel and global culture and design. Pieces that invite you to take a journey to faraway lands in your imagination.

The location is a single-story, ranch-style home with a large pool in a sunny, private back garden. The pool, heated by solar panels**, is perfect for swimming laps or just floating in the sun. Lounge chairs surrounded by greenery will make you feel like you’re living in a private, sun-drenched spa created just for you.

The home features a large open-plan living room/dining room with beautiful wood floors, sumptuous textiles and pillows, and a cozy fireplace. Everywhere you look you’ll find art and furnishings made by talented craftspeople from all across the globe--including Cuba, Morocco, Africa and Mexico. Each piece has a story to tell. The large kitchen will inspire your culinary creativity and its connection to the dining room allows for Italian style cooking--with good wine, animated conversation, and communal joy flowing while you prepare meals. You can also cook your favorite meal with our large gas BBQ in the backyard.

The location has three full bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The master offers garden access and a King bed and has an ensuite with a shower. The second bedroom has a Queen bed and is light and airy and full of cozy, inviting natural materials and eclectic global art pieces. The third bedroom has a queen bed and is decorated in clean, classic American style. All bedrooms feature organic cotton linens. The second shared bathroom features a tub and shower. The bathrooms are both newly renovated decorated and artfully appointed with Turkish cotton towels and all-natural bath products. As a bonus room, you’ll find an office decorated with mid-century modern pieces including a comfortable Full-size pullout couch.

Lovingly curated with globally sourced art and artifacts from the host’s personal collection, collected over decades of adventures, the location is a celebration of world travel and a passion for curious exploration. Travels to North Africa, Cuba, and Morocco were especially inspiring as you’ll see in the home’s design details.

Each element in the space has a story to tell, inspiring curiosity, creativity, connection, and conversation. We try to keep our beloved Zuni updated and in good conditions therefore some of the furniture you see on the listed pictures might be different during your stay if damaged from the previous guest, we apologize in advance but we want you to have the best experience.

The property has three security cameras installed for safety purposes in common areas (main entry, garage and backyard - no cameras inside the house) that are not to be fiddled with for any reason. Any damage or adjustment cased by the guest will be repaired immediately and billed directly to the guest.

**the solar panels are highly performing
during the warmer season and less
during the colder season due to shorter
days and quite cold nights.

    What a delightful stay we had at the Zuni house! The house is very clean and comfortable with updated amenities. Loved the King Bedroom, which not only had a comfy bed, but an en suite bathroom. The kitchen/dining room and living room are comfortable gathering spots for meals and hanging out. The pool was crystal clear and inviting (at least for one of our group--the rest of us were too chicken in the cool weather). The hosts were very responsive and the check in and check out directions were spot on. Highly recommended!

    My husband and I recently stayed at this house and we loved every minute of it! The pool was wonderful, and the style of the house made it feel extra special and relaxing.We loved being able to explore Ventura and other beautiful nearby towns and beaches — you definitely need to drive to get around, but everything was just a short trip away.It was so convenient being close to the downtown area and Trader Joe’s — I really appreciated having good food on hand during our stay.Getting in and out was easy, and we had everything we needed for a comfortable, fun getaway.Thank you for opening your lovely home to us! We’d happily recommend it to other couples and friends, and we’d love to come back!

    Location was great for seeing multiple towns- easy on an off highway. Clean, lots of space, comfortable beds/rooms.

    Pros:- beds were comfortable - pool is decent - decor is bold and fun Cons:- small house, with thin walls - check out is 10am, weirdly early because they want to charge you for extra time (50/hour)- there’s only 3 mugs - price is far too high for what you’re getting

    My sisters and I had a wonderful weekend at the immaculate property and enjoyed hanging by the pool taking walks on the bike path just across the main road from the property. From Comfortable beds to the equipped kitchen, this house afforded us a relaxing and lovely stay.

    Zuni is a wonderful place to stay, the house is stylish and really comfortable. As a family of 4 we were on a road trip through California and this was our respite stop, where we could have a few calm days. The house is decorated beautifully and has all the things you need for a stay in a holiday house. We desperately needed to wash our clothes after a good week of travelling - so to find 2 washing machines was a blessing. The pool is lovely and was enjoyed by our 2 teenage boys. The only slight issue for us was the state of the BBQ, which was pretty filthy before we used it. It was certainly left on a better condition than how we found it ? The location of the property was pretty good - easy driving distance to Santa Barbara and to the local beaches. All-in-all a great place to stay.

    We had a wonderful stay at Zuni Tranquillo! The house is lovely and filled with beautiful artwork and artifacts. We had 6 adults staying there and we enjoyed ourselves immensely, the pool was the perfect place to relax. Close to the freeway and beach, wonderful food nearby. Great spot, thank you!

    The property was even nicer than the pictures conveyed. Agota was super-communicative and made everything about the stay seamless and easy. It was perfect for our needs, and I can't think of a single thing to nitpick about. I would highly recommend this property if you are staying in the Ventura area. It's a great jumping-off point for Santa Barbara, Channel Islands, Ojai, Malibu, and of course, the Ventura area which is a great town with lots of good restaurants and a nice walkable downtown.
