We had the best time staying here. The house was beautiful and clean. The view is amazing, we enjoyed watching dolphins and surfers right from the patio. We will definitely return!
Our favorite stay yet - an incredible property, on an iconic beach break - we stayed here during our wedding weekend & couldn't have had a better experience. We will most definitely be coming back!

We're ecstatic that you enjoyed another great stay at The Cove at Rincon. We can't wait to see you next year for another round of beach fun. Cheers! Sincerely, Paradise Retreats
This is a wonderful house for two adult couples to enjoy the beautiful views and great location right in front of the famous Rincon Point wave. Our group enjoyed the house and fireplace. We appreciated the pretty neighborhood and close drive to everything we wanted to do in Santa Barbara and Carpinteria.

We were pleasantly surprised at the beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean home. We enjoyed the fire pit and watching the surfers. It was a relaxing way to celebrate my husbands birthday with family.

Immaculate home with all the amenities/appliances/accessories you could ever need. So fun to play on the beach and watch the surfers all day. Close to the highway, but the waves drown out most of the noise. Heavenly property for our family (2 yr old and 3yr old). We would stay here again!!!

Fantastic property! Location, amenities, access to property management was wonderful! The thoughtfulness of the owners to/for any need, was met. The nights spent at the fire pit, BBQ-ing or in the hot tub will now be a great memory for us!
We look forward to another vacation at this lovely home, thank you!

Relaxation at the beach is absolutely a piece of heaven! The Cove at Rincon is a special place and we're stoked you had a lovely time. We will see you again soon! Sincerely, Paradise Retreats
Everything you need, and everything you didn't know you needed.
Views, Firepit, Jacuzzi, Paddle Boards, Surf Boards, close to everything but also feels away from everything. Book it and you'll thank me later

Love this! What a fun review, "everything you need, and everything you didn't know you needed." You are welcome back to our dreamland anytime. So happy you had a great stay here. Sincerely, Paradise Retreats
Beautiful home in a stunning location. For surfers, this must be bliss, but was amazing for us more casual beach goers too. House was super clean and very well decorated. Felt extremely welcoming and our whole family loved it.
Traffic noise from the 101 is definitely apparent 24/7, but we’d stay there again despite that issue.

The occasional traffic noise, especially at low tide, is the only downside to a gorgeous home in a beautiful location. Absolutely worth it, will be going back I hope!!

layout, design, furnishing & making the most of a fantastic view is a "10".
minor complaint - could not get the tv in mbr to work & tv system was a
pain & should offer movie channels.

This beautiful home had us smiling as we walked in the door. We have stayed at many a vacation rental but the Cove at Rincon is at the top of the list. Clean and updated ..Everything you need (and more). Perfect for 2 couples. The deck opens up your living space. Fire pit and jacuzzi and surfers out front. We can’t wait to return. Kudos to owners and rental staff

We love pretty much everything about this place. It is in a gated community so you have that extra security. It is right on the beach (in fact it looks like the ocean might be coming in through the windows at high tide!).
There is a good sized hot tub right on the back deck, and we enjoyed a fire out on the deck each evening.
I turned on the Traeger pellet grill just to see how it worked as I have been thinking about getting one; it is very easy to use, but I did not get a change to actually cook anything on it.
The kitchen is well stocked with pots ,pans, utensils, spices.
The one thing that took me by surprise was that you cannot park your vehicle in the garage as it is used for the washer dryers and to store owners gear; that might have been mentioned in the listing and I missed it.
Living in south Texas, you want to keep your vehicle in a garage if possible to get it out of the baking sun...really not an issue in south central CA.
We will be staying there again :)

This is so fantastic to hear! We're so happy you had such a great experience at The Cove at Rincon. Nothing better than being right on the beach! We appreciate your thoughtful review and hope to welcome you back soon. Sorry if it wasn't clear about the garage. Respectfully, The Paradise Retreats Team
A fantastic beach house, we'd love to visit again!
First impressions: The entire house was extremely clean and sanitized. Very well done interiors, appropriate for the home, and extremely comfortable for the guests. Excellent views, with a terrific deck/outdoor space perfect for relaxing and taking in the scene! Well stocked linens/towels for bed and bath. A clean, well equipped kitchen, (not much of a pantry). OVERALL: We loved this property and all it had to offer. The location is great for us, an hour drive from Los Angeles. The home is comfy and cozy, while being open and airy at the same time. We enjoyed the fireplace, the fire pit, the jacuzzi, and the deck/outdoor space the most. The interior was just as wonderful to hang out in. This is the type of place we could stay at for a month, we liked it so much. We hope to return as soon as our schedule permits.
One thing to improve: The home surround sound system, I couldn't get it to work consistently. Make it more user friendly, simplify user directions perhaps. It kept turning off after only a few minutes of playing, time and time again, and we couldn't figure out why.
Thank you for a great stay Paradise Retreats, your service was outstanding. And I can't thank you all enough, for your efforts in locating and returning my pillow I had left behind. Very much appreciated!
