Great getaway
We had a great time at this property. Very clear and modern great jacuzzi easy to use. Very quiet neighborhood and beautiful scenery. We had a couple issues figuring out all the tech on the house and the repair guy came quickly Nd showed us.

Great stay and experience
The house is just exactly as pictures. The host was great and friendly. Perfect for a small family including pets. A really short walk to the beach. It was a quick trip for us and it was raining as well so we didn’t get to use the jacuzzi. Will come back next time.

September Get a way
My wife and I, our two adult children and our dog spent 12 days in Santa Barbara.
The house was lovely and as advertised. Very clean and recently up dated thru out.
The location is a block and a half from the ocean -- a 5 minute walk.
The yard was what sold me on this property -- completely enclosed and private. With a SPA and fire pit. With lots of out door area to relax in.
Brent, who manages the property was extremely helpful for any request we made.
Would clearly stay there again.

Mesa Gem
Lovely, private Mesa home with lots of little spaces to enjoy. Exceptionally clean and newly redone with modern TV's, appliances, and bathrooms. Love the proximity to the ocean and very close to SBCC. The office is a great place to work or even exercise. Property manager is extremely responsive.

Just perfect!
The little house is brand new, appointed beautifully! Our contact Brent was always available to answer questions and take care of anything that came up.
The walk to the beach and beach front park was just a few min. The location to dinning was never more than a mile or two.
The only thing we would have liked to have was a little more closet space.
Overall this place is a gem and is very well run. Would stay here again!
