Styled Montecito Cottage in Quiet Neighborhood
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 123 reviews
"While still being relatively close to the center of Montecito and not far from downtown Santa Barbara, the cottage was quiet and very private. Parking is also a breeze. I have a large truck that can be hard to park in other places I've stayed in SB. No issues here with parking always available right in front of the cottage. The cottage was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. Pat was very quick to respond to questions. We'll definitely stay here again if we are in town."

"This is our second time to stay at this property. The location is perfect. Just a couple of minutes away is a little grocery store that has everything you need. And every evening a taco truck is parked there. The cottage is so cute, spotless and is well equipped. We love sitting on the front patio enjoying drinks and a meal. The street is so quiet and peaceful, it’s the perfect place to end a busy day. We are already planning our next Santa Barbara get away at Costa Vida Cottage."

"A unique, fun, charming property that had lots of privacy! We enjoyed the AvoCottage so much! The mini-mini golf course was a hoot. And the setting was great, once we found it in the dark. The owner was great and responsive. I recommend to anyone looking for something different, yet has plenty of creature comforts."

Two Bedroom Craftsman Cottage, near downtown Santa Barbara
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, 9 reviews
"We appreciated the fresh flowers, novelty cat decor, and cozy ambiance of the 2 bedroom cottage (Woodford). Hospitality and communication was top notch. Caroline gave us a warm greeting and all the info we needed about the cottage and the area. Isabelle was helpful in coordinating our stay too. Breakfasts were OUTSTANDING! During our five day stay, we enjoyed a unique spread cooked to perfection every morning. It is almost impossible to pick a favorite: the quiche, the blueberry french toast,...
