Review Submitted: July 28, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
I've lost count of the number of times our family has returned to Paradise Cottage over the past few years. Our kids just refer to it as "our vacation house" and don't believe us when we tell them it's not really ours! We love knowing a dish of warm brownies and lots of fresh fruit will be waiting for us when we arrive that first day, and throughout the week we are made so comfortable with the little details that always seem to be covered. Many thanks to Francesca and John for all the work they have done to make this such a cozy, beautiful cottage.

I just returned from a stay at Paradise Cottage, and can attest that it is aptly named!

Simply put, Paradise Cottage is a gem! Both the cottage and yard are beautifully appointed and immaculately maintained, and teeming with special touches that make it feel like (or better than!) home. Add fresh flowers, fresh brownies, fresh fruit, fluffy robes, and you've got Paradise! I definitely recommend Paradise Cottage to others who are planning a visit to the Santa Barbara area.

Our stay at Paradise Cottage went beyond any expectations we had. It was a perfect setting in a beautiful location. The attention to detail was apparent from the first moment we entered the cottage, from the luxurious robes in each room to the homemade brownies left for us upon our arrival. We look forward to staying again soon!

What a totally delightful experience! Our hostess
was gracious and incredibly responsive to every
question and any concern (of which there were few
and those were minor). The cottage was warmly
decorated and completely immaculate. The
kitchen was so well equipped that any cooking of
any kind was possible and the creative use of space
in the cottage was amazing. We went and did a lot
during the day and at night, it was nice to come
back to a place that felt "homey". We enjoyed it so
much that we plan to rebook for next year.
