Contemporary comfort meets classic Santa Barbara in this fabulous home in the historic Bungalow District. Completely remodeled in 2008, no detail was left untouched in this gracious property.

Right at Home

Submitted: March 28, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
(Transcribed from the Guestbook at the Property)
We spent 3 very relaxing days in the Historic Downtown Cottage. It was very well appointed and we felt right at home. The kitchen faucet was loose and there was a slow leak from the valve under the sink. We noticed a small amount of water on the floor and upon investigation found quite a bit of water under the sink. We called Paradise Retreats who dispatched Steve to fix it, which he did. We found all the Santa Barbara locals very friendly, including Steve.

Long Beach Brownie Troop

Submitted: March 28, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
(Transcribed from the Guestbook at the Property)
Long Beach, CA Brownie Troup #168 was here! Now 62-63 years old we found each other again after being friends in the 1950s- 1960s via Facebook. Kudos to social newtworking. This was our 3rd Reunion.
We came together in Santa Barbara and so enjoyed our stay in this Downtown Cottage. Shopping, eating, visiting, laughing and resting was only enhanced by our experience here. We felt safe, nourished and pampered. Thank you so much!
Tips:
Lunch- Jeannine’s
Shopping- State Street
Favorite Shop- Viva Olivea
Restaurant- Harbor Restaurant on the Wharf
Touring – Santa Barbara Mission

Rain or Shine is always a good time

Submitted: December 9, 2012 Stayed: December 2012
(Transcribed from the Guestbook at the Home) We arrived for a 4 day getaway hoping we'd have good weather... but the big storm came in and we had lots of rain. That's okay because the cottage is cozy and we did lots of cooking after visiting Saturday's Farmers Market. Rain or shine is always a good time for wine tasting or beer tasting.. Figueroa Mountain Brewing Company in Buellton and Los Olivos Wine tasting rooms were great. Dinner to top the day is a must if your here, Wood Fire Pizza in Los Alamos. We visit Santa Barbara often so we look forward to more visits here in the sun.
PS for great coffee and espresso visit Handlebar Coffee on Cannon Perdido.

Thanksgiving Week

Submitted: December 6, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
(Transcribed from the Guestbook at the Home)
We arrived 4 days ago to spend Thanksgiving week in Santa Barbara. We thoroughly enjoyed the house, and prepared and celebrated our Thanksgiving with family here.
We are so impressed with the house, the well-appointed kitchen (a must for the cooking we did!) and attention to detail in everything- down to the great set of instructions you provided!
We loved everything about the house, our daughters favorite was the hot tub! Thank you, we are looking forward to coming back!

Can't Wait to Come Back!

Can't Wait to Come Back!
Submitted: November 25, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
(Transcribed from the guest book in the home.)
We arrived three days ago so excited for our girls trip! We immediately went to the beach on our bikes and walked around. Loved it! We shopped and ate and shopped some more. We took a bike ride around until we found the Santa Barbara Mission. It was beautiful! The shopping here was fabulous and I wish we weren't leaving. I can't wait to come back!
