Santa Barbara Area Features:
In Santa Barbara you can hike in the mountains and swim at the beach on the same day! This property is located on a beautiful tree filled acre property with views of the mountains. Just a short walk to the Mission and the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden. Walk to downtown Santa Barbara through Rocky Nook Park and distinctive Upper East neighbourhoods. The beach and Montecito are just an easy 10 minute drive. Santa Barbara offers a wealth of cultural and athletic activities from kayaking, windsurfing, whale watching, fishing, biking, golf to local theatre, museums and cultural events.
What recent guests say about the Hourglass:
'The Hourglass is the most lovely place to stay! Nestled in Mission Canyon, you feel like you are away from the city, yet you are only a few minutes - walking, biking or driving - from so many beautiful Santa Barbara sights! In addition to the beautiful, high quality interior and design of this amazing one bedroom hide-away, the Hourglass comes fully equipped with everything you can imagine you might need during your stay. Too many items to list! You will not be disappointed. There is a lovely deck outside the front and bedroom doors overlooking the canyon, including your own private patio, with patio table and chairs, private 'always hot' hot tub, bbq, and lounge chairs for soaking up the warm SB sun. All you need to bring is your suitcase and you're ready for the most fabulous Santa Barbara visit of your life! I highly recommend this property to friends, family and professional acquaintances.
