beautiful place, personable host, private suit, better than 5 star hotel clean and unbeatable views! Thank You :)

Lovely property. The hostess is sweet and so helpful! Very quiet location and safe.

Met by hosts. Very accommodating. They should get a Keurig coffee maker +1/2&1/2 for ams

Very nice and peaceful. The owner was very nice and helpful. Lovely setting

This casita is very private, quiet, clean and beautifully furnished. We enjoyed the lush setting and the panoramic views all the way to the ocean. The sunsets were stunning. Our host Mindy was very warm, engaging and enthusiastic in helping us learn about enjoyable places to visit and eat during our stay. At the same time, she was quite respectful of our privacy. We highly recommend this property and certainly plan to stay there during future visits.

The Villa was an incredible place to stay in Santa Barbara. It had everything we needed to relax and unwind. The location, just a few minutes from the Mission, was convenient. We enjoyed the peace and quiet each night after adventure-filled days. Everything was spotless, the bed was very comfortable and the shower felt luxurious. Mindy and Ian were wonderful hosts, so friendly and accommodating. They put some extra special touches into their home that make this place really wonderful. The best part is the absolutely stunning VIEW!

Very nice and peaceful. The owner was very nice and helpful. Lovely setting

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this well-appointed studio. The host, Mindy, could not have been more friendly and accommodating of my needs. Her recommendations for restaurants and golf courses were spot on, and added to the enjoyment of my visit. The property location is just above the Mission Santa Barbara, an impressive piece of California history. From there, access to the downtown area of this charming community is another few minutes. Without hesitation I would rent again from Mindy if my travel plans call for a return to Santa Barbara..

We felt very comfortable in Mindy's villa. Even before arrival we had close contact with Mindy. We received a lot of information in advance. After the warm welcome we went to the villa: everything was there and if we needed something, we got it immediately. Many great tips from Mindy for excursions and good restaurants. The villa is in the mountains and you have a great view of Santa Barbara and the ocean. If we go to California again, definitely back to Mission Canyon to Mindy. Many greetings to Ian, Fran and Sena. You were all wonderful hosts. Corinna and Frank, Germany

After a long week of traveling through California and staying in hotels, this was just the oasis we needed. The pictures online do not do it justice. It is a vibe, beautifully put together in a gorgeous setting. Mindy could not have been kinder or more accommodating. I have two teenagers 15 and 17 who insisted I write a review about how amazing this place is. We loved it!

Beautiful property ! Host is wonderful! 5 star all the way. Will definitely be back.

The property is great and Mindy was incredibly nice/welcoming. Would recommend to others. The locations is great and a great middle ground between the hills and downtown.

Everything about my stay was outstanding. Best hosts, great amenities, and phenomenal views. Thank you!

It feels l like you are staying in a Tuscan hill town. Great property; great distant Ocean views; great location in the hills above Santa Barbara in the Santa. Minor comment for this single-room property is that the curtains don't shield the light, so for those who prefer a dark bedroom on weekend morning, this is an issue the property can easily fix.

Even better than the description! Gorgeous, serene landscape view out huge sliding glass doors that open onto a cozy deck. Lovely at sunrise or watching the sunset over the ocean! The host couple are friendly, helpful, and very responsive. The space is warm, tastefully decorated, and inviting. Linens and bedding all super comfortable. Quick drive to downtown Santa Barbara, and 45 minutes to Solvang or Ojai. Great hiking! A really wonderful place!

The property was lovely; the view of the canyon was stunning. The unit is small but well appointed. Mindy was very responsive and gave us some tips about what to see and do. We will be back!

Felt like part of the family. Such a warm and lovely experience. And, wow, the views!!

Mindy’s place was wonderful and had SUCH a gorgeous view. It was perfect even on a rainy Santa Barbara weekend. Close to town and to hikes. Mindy and her family were so kind as well. Thank you for the perfect stay!

The place was perfect. We came for just a few days for the holidays visiting family. Place has everything you need with beautiful touches and details. Mindy is the kindest most attentive host. If we needed anything she responded immediately. Views were beautiful

Loved it!

Nice quiet getaway. Perfectly equipped studio with magnificent views.

The studio apartment is well located, 10-15 minutes away from just about everything. It is big enough for a couple and well-equipped. The host Mindy makes sure everything is perfect. The view is breathtaking and the neighborhood is quiet. We were there for a week and enjoyed every minute. We highly recommend Villa Floresco for a memorable stay in Santa Barbara!

My family and I were hesitant to reserve this property as we are not accustomed to staying in a Studio as a family unit. I know that sounds awful and we know we are very fortunate to be able to travel the country and typically stay in 2 bedroom resort units. We are so very grateful we stumbled upon this studio when visiting family in Santa Barbara. Although small, we couldn't ask for a better place. It had everything we needed, and was enough for a week's vacation. Mindy and Sena have thought of everything. The welcome pack was very informative. The amenities in the unit made me feel at home. They have literally thought of everything you may need traveling across the country and couldn't pack. As other reviews have stated, the views of the canyon were absolutely spectacular during the day and at sunset. The location is on a quiet street and we felt we could easily get to where we needed to go. Family lives in Goleta and it was so easy to get to. In future travels to Santa Barbara we will definitely look to stay here before considering other properties. As for hosts, you couldn't ask for kinder people. Thank you for a great trip. Villa Floresco is a fabulous place.

From the moment we arrived, we found time began to slow down. We so needed a break away from the whirlwind of this crazy world and this was the perfect place. Peaceful, tranquil, beautiful and wonderful all round.

This may have been our favorite VRBO stay ever. This guest house in the Mission Valley area of Santa Barbara offered every amenity and met every possible need. The unit offers a spectacular view of the valley and mountains from a private balcony/deck complete with gorgeous sunsets each nice. The unit itself was decorated in a charming manner and the bed was comfortable. We had access to laundry room and the host offered us chairs and umbrella for the nearby beach. We would recommend this home to anyone and hope to return ourselves sometime.

Mindy’s studio was comfortable and well appointed, with sweeping views of the canyon. Mindy was a gracious host who was thoughtful of our needs, even getting us beautiful flowers and chocolates when she learned we were celebrating our anniversary!

Our stay was so peaceful and beautiful! This VRBO exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend.

Mindy's home is beautiful and extremely comfortable. Everything is first class. The villa is a studio but so well equipped that it lives much larger; you have everything you need. And the view is absolutely fabulous!!! You see sunset over the mountains all the way to the ocean. Mindy and her family could not have been nicer!! Go relax and enjoy!

The property is amazing with gorgeous views of the hills down to the city and the ocean below. The patio is amazing to enjoy the peace and quiet of chirping birds in the morning and beautiful sunsets in the evening. The location is excellent with being right next to the Botanical Gardens and the Old Mission and only minutes away from Downtown and the beach, Mindy was an amazing host and graciously presented us with a bottle of local wine fresh lemons from the tree in the backyard. We loved our stay and will recommend to anyone!

The studio is perfect. Kitchenette, bathroom, balcony overlooking the mountains, comfortable bedding, sitting area. Mindy is a wonderful host. My husband and I enjoyed our stay very much.

This is a lovely little private villa tucked up into the side of Mission Canyon with views across Santa Barbara. The hosts are delightful–friendly, down-to-earth, considerate. The location is remarkable. The house is lovely, very private, quiet, well-furnished. Easy access to the SB Botanical Gardens, 2 miles to downtown. Hiking everywhere. A gem of a spot.

This is a studio detached from a main house. It is very private and has incredible views. My husband and I found the main bed super comfortable and my teen age son said the pull out couch was also great. The host is very friendly and accomodating. If there was anything we needed, they brought it over. The place is a short drive from town, the Mission, the botanical gardens and several hikes. We were there for my son's college graduation so we had lots of plans and were not there a lot.
