An absolutely great place to stay within walking distance to the Douglas Preserve and the beach. The house is very spacious, clean, and has all the necessary amenities. We enjoyed sitting in the backyard, watching and listening to the birds. One of the best rental experiences from start to finish.

Perfect family getaway house

We stayed here for our son’s wedding in Santa Barbara. It’s a great house, comfortable for us and convenient to everywhere we needed to be. The back yard was peaceful and we loved hanging out there too. Ray was such a nice host and we would definitely stay there again!

Fantastic property and location

Raymond's place was amazing! Plenty of room to spread out with a group, comfy beds, great kitchen and communal space. We loved the outdoor areas and fireplaces. Well worth the price, plenty of good food nearby, cute walkable neighborhood, and they don't ask for much cleaning upon checkout. Ten out of ten! Only wish we could have stayed longer.

Cute house, great location.

We were in town for a wedding. The location was perfect. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to enjoy the Douglas Preserve, but it is so close! The house was very clean and really cute. Loved the backyard! The host was extremely helpful and check-in couldn’t be any easier. This rental was perfect for us.

Great stay in Santa Barbara

We stayed at this great home just for 2 days but we had a wonderful stay. The house is great! Nice outdoor living space and plenty of room indoors. We had 6 adults and 2 young children and the space worked perfectly for us. The bonus was having the baby equipment! You can’t go wrong with this rental!!

Fantastic girls weekend headquarters

Our group of 6 friends thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at Raymond's gorgeous home. The location is great, so quiet and pretty - but just a short drive to everything going on in town. We took great walks through the nearby preserve to the beach, and down the cool Mesa Lane steps (check it out!). The home feels very modern but still comfortable, with plenty of room to just hang out (indoors and out). We would return in a heartbeat!
