Whatâs wonderful place for a couple or a family. We travels with our two adult children for a wedding and this was perfect. If you are traveling with little ones, it will be even better. Why pay for the cost of an overpriced hotel when you can stay here.
This is a lovely guest suite. Excellent location for a relaxing getaway by the beach. Plenty of restaurants near by. I was mostly there by myself with my dog, but two friends joined me for the last day and the place never seemed crowded. The host is most accommodating!
A beautiful guest house in a lovely craftsman home. Everything is a short walk away⊠with easy access to the Highway. It was perfect for us and our pups.
We adored the accommodations and gardens! The place is easy to get on/off the highway and minutes from downtown. The information binder had just what we needed to find things to do and places to eat throughout the area. We will definitely visit again!
Relaxing, clean, close to the beach and Santa Barbara
We really enjoyed staying here. The host has thought of so many things you would want being close to the beach. It is walkable and our dog loved frolicking in the waves.
Everything was just as described, which is to say, lovely! Such a comfortable room, furnished and stocked with all we needed, and more. We love the area. DâArcy was the super host, very quick in communication, and great recommendations. So glad we got to meet!
This place is a hidden gem. It was perfect for our five day stay. We visited Solvang and Santa Barbara. D'Arcy was very friendly and even surprised me with a bottle of wine for my birthday!
We loved DâArcyâs place in Summerland. We were attending an event in Santa Barbara and the location was perfect. Easy access to SB. We had a great time walking down the street to the Summerland Cafe, Rustyâs Pizza and Lookout Park. My family of 4 fit just right in the apartment. DâArcy left many great snacks and sent us a few messages with helpful information. We would definitely recommend her place to others.
Itâs difficult to describe just how lovely the location and host here in Summerland really are. The Proximity to Santa Barbara and Montecito was perfect. It made for a perfect retreat from the frenetic energy of my nieceâs wedding. It was quiet and relaxing and really just lovely. The hostâs attention to detail was really the icing on the cake. If youâre looking for a spot to get away, this is really the place!
Located in the heart of magical Summerland, we love this studio for both its charm and its walk-ability to shops and beach. We did a couple of the trail walk suggestions provided by D'Arcy and loved the views. Truly a magical getaway.
Property was immaculately clean and well appointed. Had pretty much everything we needed (including our dog). Easily accessible to all of Santa Barbara and environs (beaches Montecito, Downtown and Goleta/Isla Vista!
Reserved this stay for a long weekend with three other girlfriends. The stay was exactly as advertised, with plenty of snacks, suggestions, and a gorgeous view. The host was also very communicative and kind, and even dropped off a bottle of wine. Summerland itself is adorable and we were pleasantly surprised just how close Santa Barbara and Montecito were (just a few minutes). The cot under the pullout was a bit squeaky but otherwise truly a perfect stay and would definitely book again'
A great location, great view, and a perfect spot to stay in when visiting the Santa Barbara area. Some really great restaurants, shops and a beach all within walking distance. The unit was stocked with just about everything you could need and the host was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
Easy, breezy private little hide away for sleeping & showering after sunshine hours on the beach and evenings at great restaurants in SB and Carpenteria.
This is a very special place. It is roomy and very comfortable for a couple, and the hosts have thought of everything to make your stay easier. They were kindly, communicative, and helpful. We came to do some bike riding, and the cottage is right at the base of a beach trail that goes up to the northern sections of SB. We will definitely stay here again!
Great Summerland Getaway- very dog friendly đđŸ
Great place to stay especially if you have dogs. Host was awesome, beach where we took our dogs and Summerland was a great little place. Such a peaceful getaway and views of ocean were definitely real. Place was also very clean and comfortable.
The place was extremely clean, convenient, and perfect for a weekend in Santa Barbara! Its a 10min drive from the Amtrak station which makes for an excellent home base for anything you may want to do around the area. Aside from the great quiet location, its also an incredibly cute guest house with a kind a helpful host. Highly recommend and would gladly stay again myself!
We are Mark and D'Arcy Cornwall. We have 2 dogs, Casper and Rocky. We both graduated from UCSB and went to law school in Santa Barbara. We are retired now and love to travel in our RV when not in Summerland. We decided to rent out our guest house as a vacation rental so we could share the joy of this special place with special people. We hope you love Summerland as much as we do.
