Built in 2016 by an architect for his parents to retire in, this guesthouse is accessory to a larger Mediterranean home, on an acre parcel.

The cottage shares the acre property with the main residence, however it has a separate entry and driveway, and separate yard spaces. The cottage has private access to a heated saltwater pool, and spa, which is occasionally used by the main residence. Single carport with direct access to the unit, and additional parking to 2 to 3 other vehicles. The space features an indoor/outdoor room with with an adjacent secured outdoor patio.

Wonderful accommodations! The cottage is so clean and comfortable. The cookie bars upon arrival were absolutely delicious. Tom was very helpful as well. Thank you for a great stay!
Tom and Eileenâs cottage is beautifully designed and appointed. Only the highest quality products provided for our use and enjoyment. Fully equipped and supplied. The pool was a treat and perfect temperature. We did not use the spa but are sure it also is perfect. Hosts excellent and gracious communicators and always prompt to respond to any questions. Highly recommend!
Beautiful, comfortable place. Great amenities, great view. Tom and Eileen were very responsive if we had a question or needed anything, and were very generous about sharing the pool, fruit trees, and other non-private areas on the property.
The place is wonderful! Two of us best friends had a get away for Easter week and it was so relaxing. Tom and Eileen left a plate of fresh-baked goodies and a chilled bottle of wine for us, then a few days later a cute carton of fresh-laid eggs. We felt so pampered! The weather was constantly shifting, but we found the property allowed for everything. We really liked the bird-feeder, and sweeping views. Pool and spa were lovely. So easy, and the hosts seemed very amenable. Will visit again!
We loved staying in this beautiful cottage! We are a family of four with 11 and 14 year old children and we were there for a week. The expansive views make the cottage feel bigger than it is. Although we didnât do much cooking, we prepared simple meals and we had everything we needed. For those looking for info about the kitchen, it was well appointed and lovely. We also enjoyed the bird feeder thatâs in the perfect place to provide a show while youâre having breakfast. The owners made us feel very welcome and were responsive when we had questions, and we had plenty of privacy on their shared property. The home is about 5-15 minutes from most major attractions and it felt like a retreat returning there after a day of activities. We hope to stay there again!
We had a wonderful time on this vacation and our stay here was wonderful!Tom & Eileen were fantastic hosts who answered what few questions we had very promptly. The check in/checkout process was easy and uneventful. All appliances were modern and in perfect working order and we loved the W/D set up. Great parking with wonderful privacy. The views of the ocean and surroundings were exquisite and I loved having the bird feeder right outside of the property. Would definitely book with them again!
T & E provided a wonderful home so that I could totally relax and get some work done during my two week stay. The entire home is comfortable and easy to relax in. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to use. Beds have the perfect level of comfort. Everything worked well in the bathrooms. I will definitely stay again and again!
What a lovely cottage! My family enjoyed our stay in this peaceful Santa Barbara guest cottage so much. Close proximity to all that SB has to offer and the bonus of a pool and jacuzzi for when you want to be lazy and stay in. The owners were great communicators and the accommodations were lovely. Would stay again in the future!
Lovely, fully equipped cottage with private indoor and outdoor spaces. Hosts are more than wonderful as well, providing quick responses and an abundance of general information. We canât wait for our next visit.
The cottage was simply amazing! It had everything we needed for a great extended weekend. The place is immaculate and fully stocked with anything you might need. We enjoyed a quiet evening by the fire pit and also took advantage of the shared pool and hot tub. Would highly recommend!
This cottage is lovely in every way. Private, quiet, wonderfully furnished and equipped, great views, attentive hosts. It would be a pleasure to stay here again.
This was one of the best rentals weâve ever stayed in. Owners were super responsive and friendly! Great location. Beautiful views! We would definitely recommend and stay again!
A Perfect Retreat for Families â Highly Recommended!
We had an incredible stay at this VRBO property, and I can't recommend it enough! The cottage was not only beautiful but also thoughtfully designed to make the most of both the indoor and outdoor spaces. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed with the layout â the placement of windows and doors provided excellent privacy while still allowing us to enjoy the gorgeous California weather. The floorplan was perfect for our family, creating an open and spacious feel without ever feeling cramped, even on the one rainy day we had, when we cozied up inside.The kids, ages 11 and 13, absolutely loved exploring the large property. They spent hours picking fresh oranges and lemons from the trees, feeding the birds, and watching the rabbits. It was such a peaceful, nature-filled experience for them â a perfect blend of fun and relaxation.While the location initially seemed a bit far from everything, it turned out to be fantastic. Most of the restaurants we dined at were only 5-10 minutes away, making it easy to explore the area without any hassle.This property would also be ideal for a longer stay. The comfortable, well-thought-out design, combined with the beautiful surroundings, made it feel like a true home away from home. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly retreat.Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, this property is a gem. We couldn't have asked for a better expereince.
The guest house is wonderful! Very comfortable and has everything you might need. The view is incredible and itâs a short drive to shopping. Great place to unwind and relax. Highly recommend!
Wonderful spot! The cottage is very spacious, beautiful and well appointed. Everything you need, and more. The hosts are wonderful; had brownies waiting for us and wine in the fridge. We felt like we were in a fancy resort! We highly recommend this 'cottage' for your stay in Santa Barbara!
Canât say enough about this beautiful cottage! Great location! Spectacular views! Has everything you could want! Great hosts. Didnât want to leave. Highly recommend.
Wonderful accommodations exactly as advertised. Spent five nights there with my three sisters and enjoyed every second. Beautiful sunsets, hot tub, swimming pool, wonderfully comfortable beds. Everything we needed for a wonderful place to start and finish our days.
The property is gorgeous and the accommodations beautifully appointed. The hosts thought of everything needed to have a perfect stay. It's a great place to relax and unwind while exploring Santa Barbara. Highly recommended!
We enjoyed this property so much and look forward to visiting again. Beautiful and comfortable. We had everything that we needed for a great stay. Very comfortable for the four of us. Thank you!
