Wonderful Stay at Villa Floresco

Very nice stay for four nights at Villa Floresco. Online description is very accurate with one large room and en-suite bath. Everything is in top condition. Stunning views to the mountains and overlooking the city and ocean. Property shows clear pride of ownership. Very convenient to hiking trails, about 10 minutes to downtown restaurants and 15 to the harbor.

We had an amazing stay. Beautiful views. Beautiful villa. Even better than we expected! It didn’t feel like a vacation rental, it felt like a real home. It was so cozy. The attention to detail was much appreciated. Great communication with owners. 100% would stay again.

Moonlight and coyote calls were displaced this time by a glorious and mysterious foggy mist. Enchanting. Thanks, Mindy, see you again for certain.

Great location, and great hospitality

Mindy was an amazing host, and the property is absolutely beautiful. My girlfriend and I had a great time staying for a week, and Mindy gave great recommendations in Santa Barbara for different restaurants, sites, and activities.

Absolutely perfect stay. Our host Mindy was just lovely and really created a personalized touch. The space we stayed in was small, but so efficiently designed. We had a very comfortable stay! Every little detail was paid attention to and considered. It felt like we were in Europe, on a secluded mountain top. We enjoyed all of the decor as well. Just a beautifully designed space overall. The view was the best part, just stunning. We just enjoyed sitting on the patio watching the sky and mountains. Absolutely recommend.

Impeccable VRBO and Very Accommodating!

From the day I reserved Villa Floresco to the moment I checked out, I only had great things to say about Villa Floresco. The pictures perfectly represent this studio and the view is to die for. Mindy, our hostess, was also beyond helpful and accommodating. I will absolutely stay here again and look forward to doing so!

Of all the vacation homes in which we have stayed, Villa Floresco is unrivalled. The well-appointed and clean house is in a very quiet neighborhood, and affords spectacular mountain views. To our taste, Mindy is a five-star host - no reservations.

Beautiful and Peaceful

We had wonderful time. The space is very much as described and as the pictures show. Mindy, the host, could not have been more helpful. You really are up in the hills above Santa Barbara. It’s quiet. There are stars, hummingbirds. It’s beautiful. And everything Santa Barbara has to offer is ten minutes away.

Beautiful villa, wonderful hospitality

I loved staying at Villa Floresco. Mindy was a wonderful host. It was clear she has thought of everything she'd like her guests to have & experience. I felt very safe, comfortable, and relaxed there. Beyond the views, the bed and the shower were fantastic. I'll be staying here whenever I visit Santa Barbara again. Thank you, Mindy!
