Great location and beautiful house!
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home just steps from Hendry’s Beach! The location is unbeatable—quiet, walkable, and close to the ocean. The house itself was spotless, well-appointed, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We especially loved the outdoor space—perfect for morning coffee or evening wine. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and made check-in a breeze. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful coastal escape!

Family Vacation
We came together as a family to spend time together and this property fit the bill. So much to do on the property and within close proximity. Everyone had a good time of fun and relaxation. Enough space for 6 adults and 4 kids, no problems.
We thought the pool being heated was included (not extra $), but it worked out since the weather was warm and kept the pool at a pleasing temperature. The trampoline was an added pleasant surprise since we didn't see it mentioned in the online listing. But the local tax is a heavy hit on top of an already pricey property. Sadly, this will keep us from coming back to SB on a short-term rental.

Spacious, serene beach get-away
We were expecting high-end and we got high-end accommodations at this place. The place looked very new and was equipped with the variety of things to make your stay comfortable. Plenty of dishes, flatware, every pan/pot you need and great kitchen accessories. We were a party of eight but had local friends over the first night and the 12 of us fit nicely around the table and spilling into the nearby kitchen with seats at the island. Bocce ball, hot tubing and the trampoline were enjoyed by many. Several days we walked the mile down to Hendry Beach to enjoy a latte or sunset from the Boat House restaurant. Our daughter enjoyed the dog friendly beach with her dog as well. Easy access to Hwy 101 made the day trips we took to Solvang and Cold Springs Tavern very easy. And Brent was on top of things if we had to text him about anything, he was back to us withing a few minutes. Loved our stay here!!

Amazing Property
My cycling group travels to Santa Barbara several times per year. This was one of our favorite stays! Lots of space and we love that most rooms have en suite bathrooms. Pools was fantastic -we used as a cold plunge after using the hot tub. The kitchen is not well stocked. We've had better experience on that front. We tend to cook our own meals so appreiciate a well-stocked kitchen. Minor deductions there. Overall a good spot for our group.

A Magical Retreat for Labor Day Weekend
Our family had the pleasure of spending the Labor Day weekend at this magnificent Santa Barbara beach resort property, and it was nothing short of magical. The thoughtful open floor plan paired with comfortable bedrooms provided an ideal setting for relaxation. Not to mention, the fantastic amenities which include an inviting swimming pool and an open play yard volleyball court - all showcasing how this place was meticulously designed for both fun and elegance. A special thank you to the owners and to Brent, the property manager, for extending such gracious hospitality to us. We had an unforgettable trip and will undoubtedly choose this space again in the future. Highly recommended!
