About this property

93108 / Montecito getaway !!!

Just renovated guest quarters in a modern home in the exclusive Montecito section of Santa Barbara. Private entrance. Easy street parking.

Over 400 square feet. Steam room shower, mini-refrigerator, microwave, queen bed / real mattress, 65' Samsung flat screen TV and Blu-Ray DVD player.

Free wireless internet.

Private patio area.

Guests must descend a dozen stairs to enter.

No air conditioning. Nor is there in the main house where we live. Rare in Santa Barbara houses due to its coastal location. This was never an issue for years but last few summers have had some record-breaking heat. We provide a powerful Dyson tower fan and an auxiliary fan which will make room comfortable if there is a “heatwave”. This is a rare rare occurrence.

House features views of Montecito Peak and is in a remote tranquil canyon.

The Pacific Ocean (beautiful Butterfly Beach) - 3 miles.

Closest restaurants / ATM / food market / pharmacy (Coast Village Road or the local's Upper Village) - both 2.5 miles

Downtown Santa Barbara (shopping, movies, museums, dozens of restaurants) - 3 miles.

Santa Barbara Mission - 4 miles.

Westmont College - 1.2 miles.

UCSB and Santa Barbara Airport - 12 miles.

Wine County (Santa Ynez Valley) - 30 miles.

Montecito is home to 'the Dude', Oprah, Sonny Crockett (if you are old enough to remember) and can be yours for the week or weekend.

Place for a dear friend!

Our 85 year old aunt found the stairs a little scary so we switched her out and put a friend here! She loved the relaxing atmosphere and tranquil setting. Great hosts! Highly recommend!

The studio was exactly as described. It was quiet and extremely comfortable. We used the patio a lot. The hosts were responsive to questions and were very gracious when we managed to lock ourselves out. I would highly recommend this studio. We will be looking to stay again in the future!

Beautiful getaway

Stayed for 5 nights and loved the place. Beautiful views just a short walk up the hill, open studio layout with a dedicated outdoor spot, and everything you could want to do/eat/drink is under 20 minutes away. We will certainly be back!

Beautiful Montecito stay

We loved our long weekend in Santa Barbara! Location not too far from where we wanted to go and my husband had fun driving through the hills. Small thing but I really liked having the Brita filter pitcher in the mini fridge to fill up my water bottle every day. Only downside was the bed was pretty uncomfortable.

A Beautiful Gem

This lovely studio tucked in the canyons of Montecito is perfect for a quiet get-away. Easy access to all of the wonderful things to do in the Santa Barbara area - yet so serene when returning from your day's busy adventure. We will certainly stay here again.

Stylish Unit in Beautiful Location

The listing is not too good to be true. The pictures accurately depict this studio unit in the hills of Montecito. Everything was clean, and the check-in process with Lisa was very smooth. I would stay here again over any local hotel, without hesitation.

Cozy Getaway with Gorgeous Views!

I wish I’d had more time to stay at this beautiful “suite” in Montecito, with gorgeous views of the canyon, the sound of frogs in the evening, and owls at night! Even when not on site, Lisa and Chris were so great at communicating all the necessary details of my stay there. They have created the most inviting getaway space, with a comfortable couch, the most cozy bed, a shower with a steam shower function, snacks, coffee maker, Brita pitcher, and more! I love the welcoming entrance, with a guestbook of satisfied travelers noted inside, as well as the cork board maps to see where guests have visited from! Little attention to details that were so nice! I would love to stay there again when visiting my daughter in college in the area! Thank you, Lisa and Chris!
