The large outdoor deck is very private and south facing with ocean and island views. Communicating with the owner was seamless and was very responsive. We are already planning our next stay!"

"We really enjoyed staying at this hide-away and we'll be booking it in the future. It's a really cozy garden guest house with a great wrap-around overlooking an avocado grove and the Pacific in the distance. Quiet and secluded, but only a few minutes from Goleta and only a few more minutes from Santa Barbara. Bonus: nice beds and bedding and even fresh cut flowers upon arrival. Also, very good communication with the owner before and during our stay. "

"This house has a great location, walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops and just a few minutes from the beach. The beds were very comfortable and the house had everything you need for stay. We happened to stay during a heat wave and found that it took quite awhile for the PLUG- IN AC to cool place off. The owner also requested us to turn this off while we were not in the home, texting us about it during our stay to remind us. This was a little frustrating as we booked this home...

"We appreciated the fresh flowers, novelty cat decor, and cozy ambiance of the 2 bedroom cottage (Woodford). Hospitality and communication was top notch. Caroline gave us a warm greeting and all the info we needed about the cottage and the area. Isabelle was helpful in coordinating our stay too. Breakfasts were OUTSTANDING! During our five day stay, we enjoyed a unique spread cooked to perfection every morning. It is almost impossible to pick a favorite: the quiche, the blueberry french toast,...
