Hosts were friendly and responsive. Amenities were nice. Driveway is narrow & steep and parked cars all along the street make it difficult to back out so my husband backed in driveway each time so we could pull out nose first. While the shades worked, they didn't provide the privacy we would have hoped for.

The setting is beautiful with view of ocean, short walk to shops and restaurants, beautiful and fragrant landscaping, and a very busy hummingbird feeder just out the window. We were pleasantly surprised by a bottle of wine that we enjoyed. There are lovely and private spaces to sit outdoors. The shower and bathroom are exceptional. Beds were comfortable and kitchen is well-stocked. I'd highly recommend staying here. Location is very convenient as well.

This is by far the best vacation rental we've ever stayed in! The hosts have anticipated and provided for any and every need their guests might have. Double Dolphin is a spacious separate unit but Debby and Rick are right next door and able to respond with a minute's notice, should there be a need. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return.

Short drive to hikes and good restaurants. Nice view while eating breakfast at the house, and had a great breakfast at the Summerland Beach Cafe which is a short walk. If you make coffee, use the Krups over the Mr. Coffee which is very slow. The hosts were very responsive to questions. Would definitely stay here again!

First of all, Debby & Rick are super awesome hosts who kept in touch with us the entire duration of the stay. The house is very clean, well stocked and has a great ocean view. It's a nicely built unit which is comfortable and close to everything we had planned for in and around Santa Barbara. We also enjoyed watching the hummingbirds from our window. The neighborhood is safe, quaint and has many cute shops, eateries and cafes within walking distance. We enjoyed our stay a lot and can't wait to be back!

What a beautiful place! Rick and Debby built perfection - from the detailed decor to the loving construction, they have perfected the VRBO experience. We especially enjoyed the ocean view and loved walking down to restaurants and shops. It was an added bonus to meet Rick and Debby and chat with them. We only wish we could’ve stayed longer…maybe next time.

The house is adorable, very clean and comfortable. Check-in was super easy and parking is off the street and right up to the house. There is ample, comfortable outdoor seating. The living room is also very cozy and the kitchen has everything you could want. The ground coffee, pods, creamer and sugar is a lovely touch. Rick and Debby are quick to respond with any questions. Summerland is a cute little town and house is in walking distance of the shops and restaurants. My friend and our 20 year old daughters stayed for two nights. It was perfect and we would stay there again.
