A well-appointed home with a fully stocked chef's kitchen and morning coffee bar, there are three fireplaces (one in the primary bedroom/ two in the living rooms). There’s also an outdoor terra cotta fire pit surrounded by comfortable seating for you to relax by the fire (perfect for cool Montecito nights).

My wife and I introduced 3 other couples to Montecito/Santa Barbara. Anna & David’s beautiful home was the perfect spot. We all had very comfortable bedrooms with their own baths. The kitchen and living areas were great. We especially loved the outside areas and spent much of our stay around the pool and enjoying the outdoor grill and fireplace area. The views are as beautiful as the garden. And now with Bocce Ball! We could not have enjoyed our stay more. Thank you

This is a beautiful property with lots of attention to detail. We really felt as if we were in Tuscany. The first night we arrived, we picked up calamari fritti, caprese salads, linguini vongole and tiramisu from local Italian restaurant and enjoyed a bottle of wine at the outdoor table with candles illuminating the space. It was perfect. We sat in every outdoor area the first night and continued to do so throughout our stay - it's property to really appreciate. We enjoyed the surrounding area, beaches, restaurants, but really spent much of our time at the villa - we didn't want to leave this beautiful place. It's was so tranquil there and we had wonderful weather. The gardener came during our stay and tapped on the window to give us roses he picked from the expansive garden, how special was that!! The owners were incredibly responsive during our stay - had the pool and hot tub heated for our arrival. On the day of our departure, we saw a little cotton-tailed bunny rabbit in the courtyard - we were convinced the owners sent him to wish us well. This is a very special place - we would love to come back. Thanks to the owners for making this available!!

We had a perfect stay. The house is as beautiful as it looks online. And the owners could not have been more responsive to our every question and need. They made everything so easy. The house is spacious and so well maintained. And the gardens and landscaping are lovely.

We had to cancel our reservation last minute due to a misunderstanding about the use of the home (we had wanted to host a small brunch for our son's college graduation). The total number of people on property would have exceeded a number that Anna and David were comfortable with. While we were disappointed that we would not be able to stay at their beautiful home, we were completely satisfied with how they handled our situation. Together we were able to arrive at a more than satisfactory solution to our dilemma. Anna had no obligation to grant us a late cancellation, but she was so gracious and understanding of our situation. If we have the opportunity to rent their home again in the future, we wouldn't hesitate for a second.

Anna and David were gracious hosts, answering all of our many many questions in advance. We’d never been to Montecito before and they had a website for the property that was v helpfully to us in planning our stay in the area. Also, Anna was available during our stay to promptly assist when we had questions, she helped us deal with the gate when it didn’t close after heavy rain. The house has an Ipad which took some getting used to (we’re not esp tech savvy) it controlled the pool temp,lights, linked music to the home speakers, etc. We probably didn’t get the most use of this feature. Standouts: Comfortable beds, excellent bedding, towels, etc. not a lot of “personal” items around, really none, made it feel more like “your” place while there. Overall, we just loved the “feel” of the house, open airy and relaxed, fire pit was amazing at night with a glass of wine on cool nights, blankets provided. There’s a path around the property that runs through the gardens which I walked a lot, picked a tasty orange or two from the trees, beyond beautiful well kept grounds. Great 5-star experience.

Our family Christmas plan to stay in this beautiful home was changed last minute, due to the Thomas fires in their area. Anna was very helpful and honest about the situation. Even as our plans changed the day before our arrival, they offered us a complete refund, due to these unusual circumstances. We would certainly hope to stay here at some point in the future, as all of our research pointed to this fabulous estate. Anna and David could not have been more accommodating through a stressful time for them, and a hectic time for us.
