We truly enjoyed our stay. It’s perfect for a couple’s getaway. The location is perfect for hiking trails and the view of the ocean was amazing. The house had everything we needed. We enjoyed the hot tub which was very clean. We took our puppy, Luna, who did well with the stairs which was one of my concerns. It was a five star trip all the way around. Celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary. Thank you!!

We never stayed in this home. I reserved it months ago and cancelled a week later. The property manager, Grand Welcome Sea Ranch, was wonderful! They reimbursed our money immediately. VRBO was slower but eventually reimbursed their fee. But they would not cancel the reservation. I called three times and they said they would "elevate the matter" and "get it done". Nothing happened. Then they sent me an email entitled: "All set for your trip to Santa Barbara" for this reservation in Sea Ranch! I have used VRBO for decades but noticed that they have been getting less reliable. I will never use them again.

Beautiful Chill Getaway
The house was great, beautiful ocean views. It's small, but great for a couple (no bedroom door - loft only). The fireplace was so cozy. The only comment is the 10am check out is a little harsh. Other than that, 10 out of 10.
