Surf Bungalow at the Lazy Hummingbird- A 2 bedroom delight in Summerland!

This expansive 2 bedroom bungalow offers sweeping views of the ocean and sweet town below from the large, private deck. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail while watching dolphins play just beyond the shore! The breathtaking ocean views are matched with designed appointments featuring luxury bedding, custom furniture, and a full European-style kitchen. The living spaces flow, from the custom sofa and built-in bench window seat to the oversized daybed + lounge, with a bright and contemporary color scheme designed to relax and rejuvenate your spirits. The primary bedroom features a queen bed and a large TV. The second bedroom offers two twin beds, perfect for children or visitors. The bathroom includes a rain-head shower and a soaking tub.

The private deck features an oversized daybed + lounge, as well as a pub-style dining and cocktail area next to the BBQ. The outdoor twinkle lights and design touches add to the ambiance.

Surf Bungalow is one of three units on the Lazy Hummingbird property, meaning there is plenty of communal yard space to enjoy as well.

** Laundry facilities are available for your convenience and shared with the other two units on the property.

Hope to come AGAIN!

It was a Great place! Only 2 complaints. The Palm Tree out front needs to be Trimmed as the View was not as great as it could have been. There needs to be a Vacuum that can put on a wall with a Battery so we can clean the floor once in awhile.

The rooms were sunny and bright, the design was excellent and the kitchen was well appointed. It was the perfect place for our family of four. My only quibble is that we could have used better directions to local beaches, but we figured it out.

Beautiful, Pristine Property with an Ocean View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Just as pictured, this apartment is pristine, clean and stylish. Not oceanfront, but a very nice view of the ocean from the patio and most of the rooms. A five-minute drive to a nice beach and walking distance to a few shops and restaurants in the very tiny Summerland "downtown"; however there is much more to do in nearby Santa Barbara, a 10-20 minute drive from this property, depending on traffic. The rental agency was very easy to work with and responded quickly to questions.

Lazy Hummingbird Marketing Flaws

I would not have booked this rental if I had caught three important descriptions that were either missing or were underplayed in the marketing details. This property is not for people with disabilities who have difficulties using stairs since the parking level is below the property which is on a hill. You must climb a set of cement stairs leading up to a wood deck with another set of stairs. Additionally, based on the property photos provided I did not pick up on the fact that the property was not a house but rather divided into 3 separate units . Unfortunately the description of the property did not prominently define this fact until deep into the written description. I unfortunately missed this fact when I made my reservation. I wanted more privacy than this rental afforded. Also the address did not include a unit # which contributed to my thinking it was house. For those who like coffee and have never used a French "Press" there was NOT an electric coffee maker. This could easily frustrate some guests. The view was nice but was obstructed by a large palm tree and electric wires. For these reasons I believe the rental rate was too high and I would not recommend this rental unit despite the pluses of location, decor and the overall esthetic which was appealing.

If you are interested in Summerland, then you will love this place! It is really cute, clean, comfortable, a great location, and has a great design aesthetic. It is a great home away from home!

Very nice place

Nice small apartment about 6 miles from Santa Barbara.. The place is very attractive and modern with a nice deck for Pacific sunset views and mostly newish furnishings- but it is small, only has one bathroom and the beds are small too. Still we had a lovely time and recommend this place and its location. Be aware there are significant traffic jams on US 101 to and from Santa Barbara at certain times of day. Try to travel against the flow when possible.

Lazy Hummingbird is heavenly.

We were so happy with this rental. The place is darling with some of the cutest decorating and interior I've ever seen in a rental. The windows all open up for fresh ocean air and a breathtaking, beautiful view. Everything you need is close by. The walk to town was perfect, the ocean is right there, the parking is great. The layout is great making it seem even bigger than the description. You will love your stay here.

Lazy Hummingbird is dreamy!

My husband, two little boys, and I stayed at the Lazy Hummingbird for a few nights and it did not disappoint. This is the second year in a row we've stayed there, and we are officially going to make it an October tradition. The remodel is wonderful, with great design elements, comfy furniture and a souped up kitchen. The house is nestled in quiet Summerland, just minutes from Santa Barbara. The ocean views and vegetation/plant life surrounding the house leave you ensconced in a peaceful hideaway, the perfect setting to relax and recharge. We are already looking forward to next October when we return to the Lazy Hummingbird!

I came to the lazy hummingbird with a few of my friends and had an absolutely wonderful time. We had the two bottom units. The remodel is AMAZING! It is so well done, everything is fresh, crisp and clean and beautifully decorated. The beds are comfy too which is always important to me. And it is quiet! Makes for a great sleep. The outdoor patio is so nice and we got to grill and have dinner out there looking at the ocean! There's a fun little restaurant/bar in town called The Nugget, which is walking distance and where we went for dinner and drinks. Overall we had an amazing time and would totally recommend it to my friends and family! I can't wait to go back!

Love this place! We are going to book all 3 bungalows in the fall for a family reunion. We can all be together but also have our own place. It's a very private and beautiful setting.

Lazy Hummingbird Vacation Rental

Hands down the nicest vacation rental we have ever stayed at. No old creaky furniture and hand me down bedding. The design makes it even roomier than it is. My husband now sees that we could probably live in a smaller house.
