Quiet weekend
This spot is in an upscale quiet neighborhood. There is public beach access very near, but we didn't use it. There is a pokemon gym around the corner.This place is a quiet 2 bedroom house. They have their own driveway for off-street parking.The backyard is heavily shaded, and they provide hammock, chairs, benches, and an umbrella is also available. There's a covered courtyard in the back with chairs, a bluetooth wireless speaker and also a propane fire ring. If we rented the site for a week, we would probably enjoy those amenities, but we didn't during our 2 night stay.Besides the 2 bedrooms, there's 2 bathrooms with bath & shower. There's also a 3rd room used as an office. Within the dining room, there's another desk for remote work. For community space, there is a dining room and the comfortable living room is quite spacious. The kitchen is very large. The listing forgets to mention that they also have an air fryer, and a hot air popcorn popper. If you bring your own Sodastream bottle, they have the charging base. We brought our own coffee beans for our stay. I love the coffee grinder so much that I ordered the same version on Amazon during our stay.Grocery, shops, and restaurants are 0.3 miles away. Occasionally there's air noise as the jets descend to 10,000 feet over the ocean in preparations for landing 10 miles away..--Very nice accommodations. We'd like to stay here again for a longer duration next time.

Santa Barbara Beach Retreat
Simple but stylish bungalow in Santa Barbara's Mesa neighborhood, easy .8-mile walk to Arroyo Burro Beach and easy 10-minute drive to Santa Barbara harbor and downtown. Bungalow has unusually nice back garden, too.

Cute Mesa bungalow
Cozy spot with a fun So Cal vibe. Was very clean and nicely appointed. Perfect size for two adults and two kids. The in-home office was a great bonus.
