Lovely house, great equipment in the kitchen. The location was terrific, we could walk along the beach.
The instructions to unlock the front door were not accurate--just enter the code and the door will open!

Great place to stay when visiting Santa Barbara
This was an amazing place to stay and relax. The house has everything you need to spend time with family and/or friends. It is very well located, in a quiet neighborhood, just a few minutes walk from the beach, and not far from major tourist points in Santa Barbara. We would definitely recommend and come back again.

We really enjoyed this place but when there was a minor problem with the heating, the management company was not responsive. Kitchen was very well-equpped.

A few easy fixes would make this a 5-star property
The neighborhood is great - just a block from the beachside park - and the home is clean. The price, for the area, was a great deal. There are a few annoyances that keep me from rating this as 5 stars, though.
1. The toilets have a small sign that asks guests to please be sure the handle returns to a certain position. I guess this is to make sure that the water doesn't keep running, especially in an area where water is already an issue. Please just replace the toilets instead. If that's too much of an expense then the company shouldn't be in the vacation rental business.
2. A little instruction on how to use the gas stovetop would be nice. It isn't obvious and I used the fireplace lighter several times before finally figuring out that if you turn the knob all the way on, the electric lighter would activate.
3. While the outdoor area is generally nice and quite spacious, the random stones are mostly just a tripping hazard, so my 80-year-old mother wasn't able to enjoy that aspect of the house at all.
4. Hopefully they will fix the issues I did report to them in the master bathroom.
None of these are dealbreakers for me, and I would stay here again.

Great Stay with Teenagers
I treated my teen cousins to a girls trip to Santa Barbara. This house was perfect. It was close to the beach and shops and the neighborhood was so nice and quiet. The only thing is it was a hot weekend so you may want to bring a portable fan for the kitchen and living room. There is no AC. There was funky smell coming from the garage and it permeated the house, so we just opened the windows to keep the breeze in the house. The patio is gorgeous.

Safety issues
I did not feel safe in this house. Every bedroom has a door to the patio, but some are not secured by proper locks. The biggest problem was the bedroom at the end of the patio. We could only use the twist lock on the doorknob and there was no light outside the door. There is a keyed deadbolt, but they do not provide a key and, in fact, it looks damaged from the outside. Overall, the house is kind of shabby: loose outlets, cobwebs in the skylights, some stains on the furniture. Overall, I will say it seemed fairly clean upon arrival (e.g. no grime in the sinks or showers), but did feel that our cleaning responsibilities were too numerous for the cleaning fee we paid. Finally, the location was great in terms of being near the beach and centrally located in SB, but there were a couple nearby houses that were pretty rough around the edges.

Excellent location. Spacious. Great access to SB zoo, restaurants, & beach. Would really shine with a deep clean - rugs, upholstery, outdoor cushions, master drain.
