The house was charming and very comfortable for 3 couples. Great outdoor areas and decks. My only suggestion would be to turn up the heat in the hot tub. We would be like to visit again!

Great home for a beach stay

The property is exactly as photo show, and it was a comfortable and enjoyable experience. About 5 minutes drive away from a wonderful beach in Monecito, and a very short drive away from the village center, the location is ideal. Property looks brand new, and all fittings were extremely comfortable and well appointed. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for a short getaway up the coast!

Montecito escape

The house is amazing. It stands up to everything that the photos are online. Driving over the creek and seeing the drawbridge, you know you’re headed to a magical spot. Tears were beautiful. Every amenity was available and the manager was extremely responsive. We loved our stay and would definitely return.

Old and cold

I rarely leave reviews for properties but after staying in this home I had wished I had been told these few things. First, I have stayed in many fantastic properties listed on VRBO across various price points. And have enjoyed visiting montecito for a decade or more. Mainly always traveling with children. First off, this home photographs very well for the social media age. However it is extremely old. Records show it was purchased in 2020 and subsequently renovated. The renovation was light and superficial and the home is very weathered, both inside and out. One of the bedroom doors did not work and there was a visible gap in it where cold air was leaking in. After a rain, I spotted wet floorboards indicating lack of weather proofing on the exterior. Be wary of potential mold exposure when staying here. Given the age of the home, there is very little insulation. It was either freezing cold or extremely hot from the heater. No in between. Perhaps summer would have been a different experience but that would not have changed how little it felt the house and property had been maintained. The outdoor patio paint was all chipped, furniture old and worn down.

We're so sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with this property. This is not what we like to hear as we strive to provide great experiences in great properties. We are used to seeing 5 stars on this property. This is a beautiful home that was professionally remodeled with quality updates inside and out. We take great care of our properties on a REGULAR basis to avoid deferred maintenance. Our area did experience record rainfall during this time which may explain any water moisture. Our local inspectors will review the items noted and make any improvements/repairs needed. Your input is appreciated, however, we do not have issues at this property like you have stated, and we do not feel like your statements are true or fair. Respectfully, Paradise Retreats

Casa Miramar is lovely…the house worked well for 4 people. We could have used more storage in the master for clothes and a desk in a bedroom, but otherwise it was great.
