Great place and a great location. It is only for two people and my wife and I enjoyed it immensely. Restaurants are very close and every thing is in walking distance. However, you can drive into Santa Barbara if you want. Also a great place to take off on your bike if you would like to do that, also.

We loved our stay. The town is charming and has lots of character. The fruit stand across the street is delicious and added to the small town feel of our stay. Conveniently located between Santa Barbara and Ventura, but nestled away from the crowds.

My partner and I enjoyed our stay. The host, Leslie, is a superb communicator and very helpful i.e. restaurants and locations to visit. The cottage is conveniently located near walkable shops, restaurants and the beach. It is clean and the bed is comfortable. The patio garden is peaceful and private. We enjoyed our stay, and we will definitely return.

The garden was spacious, the apartment clean and bright. But too small for two elders.
The highway traffic and Amtrak train noises were cumbersome, otherwise it's a great place, for one.

We loved this place in Summerland. The garden area was as advertised, and made for a very pleasant office away from home. We were a close walk to a nice beach and a short drive to downtown Santa Barbara. Plenty of shopping close by, including a great wine tasting room next door.
We'd absolutely stay here again.

Awkward layout and very small rooms; no cross ventilation; no temperature control; extremely low ceilings; awkward and extremely small bathroom; no exhaust hood in Kitchen and oven door does not close; no fire and smoke safety devices; no cable TV--poor working Netflix only, no other channels. The garden/patio was very nice. The Owner was very friendly and informative.

This was a lovely, relaxing stay in a tranquil spot. The garden/patio area, particularly, was a real delight. The property was pet friendly and my small dog loved it (and its proximity to a great dog beach). Very highly recommended.

Leslie was a gracious host and made us feel comfortable and welcome throughout our entire stay. The location was wonderful and we enjoyed the enclosed patio many times during the week. Close enough for quick trips to monticeto, Santa Barbara and los olivos.

Summerland was just amazing, some of the most friendly people we had the pleasure meeting.. The Nugget, and the cafe we visited most. If you never wanted to get in your car, it had everything you needed…

Location was great but the place does need some work. There was a leak in the kitchen and bathroom during heavy rains. Issue with front door shutting and there was a broken light just laying there when walked in front gate. Also the tile in the bathroom is in really bad shape. Owner was very responsive and the garden is beautiful.

The cottage is lovely and the garden is so peaceful. You are right in downtown Summerland and an easy drive into Santa Barbara, Montecito, Ojai and Ventura. It was a lovely place to return to at the end of the day.

Beautiful garden apartment near the beach
This private garden apartment was perfect for a stay near the beach in the Santa Barbara area. It's tucked away in the picturesque village of Summerland, and is steps away from a beautiful park and beach. A farmer's wagon is across the street and provided fresh eggs, veggies, and homemade snacks every day. Restaurants were close by, or takeout was available from nice nearby restaurants (we particularly liked Thario's on Santa Claus Lane). Our host, Leslie, couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. The bed was so comfy, kitchen adequate for anything we needed to prepare, and though the apartment is small, there is a big room for storing all our stuff, which made it easy to navigate! The garden was the best -- green and fragrant, lovely for sunning, dining, just enjoying the privacy of the place.

Was not totally what expected from pictures and could use some major upgrading. However, worked out well for our purpose and Leslie was a great hostess.

We enjoyed our short stay at this beautiful cottage. The kitchen was well equipped for our cooking needs, there were ample linens and towels, and even beach chairs and towels. We were just steps away from restaurants and shopping and the beach was a short walk down the street. Our only suggestion (not really a complaint) is that the couch needs to be a more standard couch. It rained for a couple of the days we were there and we spent a good deal of time lounging. But the couch was not conducive for that purpose. Maybe a smaller dining table would allow space for a proper couch? Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed this cottage and the host was very kind and friendly.

Absolutely perfect!!
My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at La casa tropical! Everything was cutely decorated and well put together. The place was kept very clean and also smelled great! I was apprehensive about our stay because of a previous negative review I had read after already booking. I’m SO glad I decided to see it for myself. Leslie was a great host and more than accommodating! She gave fabulous recommendations for places to eat in the area, and we even had a chance to try her homemade pastries - to die for! The place is beautiful! The outside landscape and seating felt like our own private oasis. Not to mention you’re walking distance to some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen! We can’t wait to come back and stay here again!

Great for access to Summerland Beach and the neighborhood and lovely small garden. Bathroom could use a remodel, and TV cabinet takes up too much room. Let guests know TV lacks cable stations.

Delightful place, wonderful host and neighborhood. Across from an every day farmer’s market, several restaurants and charming furniture and antique stores. The bird sanctuary a block away was a nice surprise.
