Pine Mountain Club Getaway w/ Game Room!

MarkRating, 5 stars12 months ago
Some reviews noted spider webs and debris. We saw no evidence of this. Others complained about the heat system in the guest room. We’re familiar with a split system so had no issues. There are 3 different systems in that unit so maybe they were trying the electric wall heater which isn’t very efficient and what seemed to be a gas radiator which didn’t seem to have the pilot light on and also wouldn’t be as efficient. We had timely responses on the few questions we had ahead of our arrival

Villa Castillo 1-studio close to downtown, dog ok

PeterRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The space is a nice studio. It is good for 1-2 adults. The bathroom is nice. The bed was great. It felt pretty private was there are gates that lock into the property and a nice fenced in backyard shared space. It’s in a good location about 10 minute walk to State street and close to the highway if you drive somewhere out of the direct area. The host was also very responsive. Would recommend this unit or one of their larger ones if you want or need more room.

Villa Castillo 2- A/C, dog ok, walk to State St

AshleyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I had an incredible stay at this villa with my small pup. The villa was extremely clean and the bed/duvet were the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on that I had to ask for the brand! Hosts were beyond thoughtful and truly care about ensuring you have a great experience. The garden is beautiful and I felt very safe. I can’t think of a single negative thing to say! We will be returning yearly :)

Villa Castillo 3 - A/C, dog ok, downtown SB

MatthewRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I liked this place. The bed was ultra-comfortable, the space was sparkling clean upon arrival, and the off-street parking and location within Santa Barbara were ultra-convenient. The biggest draw for us was that the place was dog-friendly, and my friend and I appreciated getting to stay here with her dog.

BetsaidaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We loved staying at the villa--we wish we could've stayed at least one more night to enjoy it that much more! It was within walking distance of the beach, restaurants, and best of all (for my family and I), the train station! We hope to return again!

Solvang Hilltop

AlishaRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Simply magical! Stunning property with incomparable views, the best hammock in the world, beautiful outdoor dining space, right on top of Solvang but feels like you’re in the Tuscan countryside. Beautiful, light filled home with views all around and extremely clean and well appointed. Can’t say enough wonderful things, and the hosts are so friendly and helpful. Amazing!

West Beach Villa 3- 2 blocks to beach and State St

RainaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
The neighborhood can’t be beat. We didn’t have to use the car except for a run to the grocery store and walked to the beach, harbor, pier, Funk Zone and State street with ease. Beautiful apartment and surrounding areas. We had Internet issues and Haller was quick to respond and resolve. Beds were comfy and excellent shower. We especially loved the beach wagon and kids books/games. It’s an older place, so noise travels easily, but neighbors were quiet. Highly recommend and we plan on staying here again.

Casa del Sol (Room 1)

SophieRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! Martha was responsive, kind and welcoming, and it’s clear that she genuinely cares about her guests’ happiness. The home is situated in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood, just an 11-minute drive from downtown, making it a perfect retreat. Our room was spacious, private, and comfortable. We also enjoyed access to a lovely, well-landscaped backyard with a big pool. While the water was on the colder side (in the low 60s), I didn’t mind it. However, I wasn’t sure if the hot tub was functioning. One suggestion I have is to add a coffee/tea station in the room (with milk and raw sugar) for those early morning wake-ups when you’re in a rush. Currently, it’s located at the end of the pool in the outdoor kitchen. Overall, I highly recommend this Airbnb. I’m so glad we discovered it and will definitely return on a future trip to Santa Barbara!
