Host is a Fraud. Stay Away!
I actually did not stay here because the Host cancelled our reservation the day before we were supposed to check in. More specifically, she tried to push me to cancel the reservations so I'd have to eat the charges: this seems like fraud to me. She gave conflicting reasons for the cancellation, I assume at least one reason was a lie. This Host is not trustworthy. Also I am disappointed in VRBO for failing to properly vet the properties on its platform. I'm done with short-term rentals! Too hard to find honest Hosts these days.

Beautiful cottage with amazing view.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the 1920’s Santa Barbara cottage. It is immaculate, charmingly furnished and decorated. Very comfortable and well equipped. The location is fabulous - close to beaches, State street restaurants and shopping, SB pier and the Funk Zone. Jen and Jax were wonderful hosts.

BEWARE: Terrible stay with fleas and no parking
Long story short, they have FLEAS, NO PARKING, RECORDING DEVICES (vrbo removed listing until devices removed), ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION IN BACKYARD, UNCLEAN, AC REMOTELY MONITORED. None of which was disclosed at booking. Sent 6PGS of single spaced typed rules A MONTH AFTER BOOKING so we couldn’t find replacement vrbo or hotel at same rate. not the kind of people who should be doing short term rentals.
We informed them of these problems, to which they replied we brought the fleas and that they’re leaving a scathing review of us. We left the place clean despite them REQUIRING US TO PAY A CLEANING FEE in booking but also requiring US TO CLEAN BEFORE WE LEAVE and suggesting WE PAY AGAIN FOR CLEANING WHILE WE ARE THERE. The home WAS NOT CLEAN. There was hair everywhere(linens, towels, etc) and fleas. They have pets which was not disclosed (found food, toys, pee pads, etc in the home). Too many knick knacks and rules for a short term, expensive stay. Home is located in great area, but again NO PARKING. We asked before, during, and after booking and were told there was adequate parking. Untrue.
THEY SHOULD NOT BE RENTING.
