Three Bed Ro Duplex #B, full kitchen, 1 bathroom
was perfect for me and my family! it was a homey place and had good privacy and amenities. 10/10 recommend

Sun, Fun and the Beach Studio with Full Bathroom
Pamela and Steven were amazing hosts! Proactive communication and directions were very clear and easy. The bed was THE most comfy ever! Appreciated the coffee pods for the Keurig, sugar and they even offered to get us creamer. They supplied bottles of water and healthy snack bars too in the fully stocked kitchen. The Williams Sonoma soaps and room sprays were lovely! They really thought of everything and were so sweet! We would definitely return!

Private guest house In heart of Montecito
My first time using Airbnb and I was so impressed! I loved this rental. Perfect location where we walked to all the restaurants in Montecito. So quite and relaxing ☺️

Is It Denmark Or California, You Decide.
My husband and I along with our daughter, son in law and grand daughter, spent 10 nites at Zora’s place over the Christmas holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed the space and being able to be together to play games and open presents. The close proximity into Solvang and its Julefest made for fun walks. We also enjoyed nearby wineries, Santa Barbara and local parks. I do think in 2024 in the Tech State of California not having free high speed WiFi is a bit anachronistic. Paying an additional $5 per device for poor bandwidth was unnecessary and annoying. That criticism however is not a negative reflection on Zoar but rather the Worldmark property policy

Modern Space KING BED, FAST WIFI, WORK SPACE
This isn't our first time and will not be our last. I was so happy this place was available for our dates. It is the first we look for when trying to find an affordable, quiet, and private place. Has an amazing kitchen, bathroom, and master bed and we absolutely love it here. Amazing find and the best place ever to stay at with what you get and price. In a VERY quiet community but very close to the life of the beach, the amazing foods, malls, and theaters. Also close enough to LA but far enough from the hustle and bussle as well as traffic. Only reason to give this place a 1 star is so I can keep this great find to myself!😁

Sunny, modern, private casita
Definitely one of my favorite casitas in the Santa Barbara area while visiting my daughter at UCSB! It’s so clean, fresh and filled with light, and very comfy. The hosts took care of every detail from bottles of wine to fresh flowers. The neighborhood is peaceful and it’s close to everything. Would love to stay again!

Wine Country Ranch Escape - near wineries, on farm
Quiet, clean, private and comfortable, with all kitchen ware needed!

MODERN SCANDINAVIAN GETAWAY
What a beautiful space! So close to everything so walking everywhere was perfect! Easy check in and clear instructions. There were 5 of us in the space and with the vaulted ceilings and so much light coming in, it felt very spacious. It was cozy and close to everything we wanted to do! I would definitely book this place again next time we go!! Thank you:)
Private apartment rentals

Montecito Pied a Terre
Whether it’s your first time in SB or you’re a returning traveler, Kyle’s stay is the perfect spot to reside during your visit! Starting off with its location near needed stores and recommended restaurants like Jeanine’s diner, you can’t ask for a better location. A stay should consist of both an Experience along with Convenience and this home provides both. In using AirBnB, I think prompt communication from a host is a strong factor of making the stay a great one and Kyle executed that “to a T”! An issue would arise, she was quick to respond! I appreciate the home, the location and the professionalism that Kyle displayed during my visit.

New 2 Bed Apartment Close to Downtown and Beach!
Excellent location, clean and simple. We’ll stay again.

Cozy 1 bedroom w balcony, 6 minute walk to beach
Not fancy but everything we needed for a nice, relaxed week in Santa Barbara. Excellent location with easy walk to Leadbetter Beach

Quaint Private Room With Kitchen
Matthew's place was perfect for our short stay. We were in SB for one night, and his place is a short drive to the waterfront where we wanted to explore. We felt safe and comfortable. We will definitely stay again if we are in this area. Bonus~Matt has excellent taste in music ; )

One Bedroom retreat
Clean, quiet, convenient and private, our stay worked out great for us since we were close to our family and that was essential. We both slept great, and we actually figured out how to use the TV! I loved seeing Elvira’s beautiful vegetable and flower garden out front, and having all the lighting really helped us find out way home at night. I would definitely come back.

Private Bed rm, bath, kitchen & Private entrance
This place had everything you could need plus extra touches that really made our stay great. An electric tea kettle was great, fill size fridge a plus, extra pillows and linens also great. The full size couch was very comfortable for lounging and movie watching. The floors were clean, the restroom was clean, the linens were soft and spotless. We enjoyed staying here. Very peaceful.

Cozy apartment in Santa María central
Very clean and convenient location

Carpinteria Beach Studio Condo
Had the best Carpinteria getaway! 🌴🌊🙋🏼♀️ This amazing studio is steps from the beach & shops/restaurants, and has all the comforts and amenities of a true home away from home. Michael is a wonderful host who’s communicative, friendly, and provided the best experience. Highly recommended! ✨
Apartment rentals with a hot tub

Ojai Healthy Happy Getaway
We had a wonderful stay! The location was beautiful and a quick drive to the center of Ojai. Geoff and Annika were friendly and responsive. They helped us figure out the hot tub and cold plunge which were great to have access to after our active days around Ojai. It is a little less private than I realized from the description (you share the space with the hosts), but they have done a good job of making it feel private by putting a gate to a private courtyard and blocking off direct access to the rest of the house. It has the feel of a guest house. The vibe was laid back and peaceful- perfect weekend get away!

Calypso Breeze|Jacuzzi|Walk to the Beach|Games|BBQ
10 Stars to our host and this beautiful space! I had family in and we were able to enjoy our time together and have our own space as well. The backyard was perfect for relaxing or enjoying time together. The short walk to the beach was perfect, and the Jacuzzi was such a treat! Pretty late on our first night we realized the Jacuzzi wasn’t getting as hot as it should and contacted Victor. By the time we woke up in the morning, the technician had come out and fixed it so we were ready to enjoy our time. We enjoyed every minute and will absolutely be back.

2-Bed Unit*Washer/Dryer*Pool*Gym
Great place to stay. Everything was really clean and organized. If I had to be nit picky about something, I wish there were bigger bowls to eat out of in the kitchen and more trash bags. Besides that, Rajvir was a great host and very responsive. You have access to the gym and pool during your stay and I felt very safe in the gated community.

Architect's 2 Bed Beach House 1 blk to beach!
We absolutely loved Maddie’s house in SB! The beds and pillows were SO comfortable, the kitchen has everything we needed and we felt right at home. We brought bikes to get around and never had to move our car! Super close to the beach too! Maddie was super helpful whenever we needed anything! We definitely will be returning to this super cute beach house!

Just steps away from the beach
The place itself is inside a nice little gated community with a very chill vibe. The apartments and parking spaces aren't arranged in numerical order for some reason, but there was no issue finding our way because Kiran sent detailed instructions to help us. The place itself is super cute, with a lovely beachy theme and a small patio and big sliding door that lets in a nice breeze. The surrounding grounds are well groomed and full of beautiful local plants and flowers. The beds are comfy, and the place is clean, well organized, and everything is labeled with instructions to make things easy. And of course, it's right next to the beach! It's easily less than ten minutes to get to the beach behind the complex on foot. I don't know what it's like during the busier part of the season, but while we were there it wasn't crowded, and we had plenty of space to explore the shore and play in the water. This place had everything we needed, and my family had a great stay!

2 BD Queen unit @ Elegant Solvang-Pool/Hot Tub/Gym
The Solvang property was very conveniently close to shops and restaurants. The front desk staff were also very friendly. The unit itself was immaculately clean, comfortable and relaxing. Anne was super responsive and patient with my questions and inquiries.

Charming Cottage Walkable to Butterfly Beach
Absolutely loved our stay! The place is as beautiful as the pictures and we loved being able to walk to the main drag with tons of restaurants and coffee shops in Montecito, as well as Butterfly beach. We enjoyed relaxing at the house and kept the windows/doors open in the afternoon for the fresh ocean breeze and enjoyed cooking dinner at the house one of the nights. The jacuzzi was lovely.

2 Br/2Ba Apt WFH friendly King Beds!
Amazing Stay – Exactly as Pictured! I had an incredible time at this beautiful Airbnb! The house was cozy feeling, clean, and well-maintained. Every room was exactly as shown in the pictures. The amenities were top-notch, from the spacious living areas to the fully equipped kitchen. You can tell a lot of thought went into making this space not only beautiful but also functional. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. Can’t wait to stay again!
