Quiet oasis in Santa Barbara

This is our second stay at the property. The gardens in the back are perfect for our family to have quiet down time and a brief morning walk from the house to the beach was ideal. We will definitely stay again next visit.

Great place to stay when visiting Santa Barbara

This was an amazing place to stay and relax. The house has everything you need to spend time with family and/or friends. It is very well located, in a quiet neighborhood, just a few minutes walk from the beach, and not far from major tourist points in Santa Barbara. We would definitely recommend and come back again.

Colors of the Coast

Our family stayed at Colors of the Coast for our son's wedding. The property is perfect for 5 adults. The kitchen was well stocked and the home had lots of amenities. The backyard is beautiful and the short walk to the beach was wonderful. Wish we had more time to spend there. Highly recommend this location.

Perfect location, great neighborhood, nice house

We really enjoyed the space. Loved the gas fireplace, big kitchen and private back yard area. The bedroom with the double bed was a bit dark, not much lighting, but comfy bed and plenty of space. Perfect spot half a block from the ocean, walk to coffee shops and pier. We would definitely stay there again.

Super comfortable house in an amazing location

This is the best location to stay in Santa Barbara -- just a block away from beautiful Shoreline Park, a 15 min walk to Leadbetter Beach, and a 10 min or less drive to anywhere you want to go in town. The house itself is super comfortable, especially for families. We really enjoyed the big spacious kitchen and the beautiful backyard.

Great place to stay!

The location was amazing with just a short walk to the park and to the beach. We walked there every day and it we could hear the “beach sounds” from the back yard which was really restful. The back patio was a perfect place to spend time while we were at the Vacasa. The house was very clean and we had very few issues with the house. Overall a great stay and we would definitely stay there again.

Great stay in Santa Barbara

The house was very livable. Not fancy but very comfortable. The outdoor space is charming and ghdd Ed house is only a block from a lovely park with ocean views. State Street and the wharf are a short drive away. The weather was great. We had a lovely 3 days in Santa Barbara- just what we needed.

Great for families with kids.

Great location, close to everything. We have two kids (3 and 7) and there was plenty to do at the house and in the vicinity. Great parks and playgrounds across the street. Safe neighborhood with families out and about playing. Well stocked house and kitchen. We cooked a lot of meals there and everything worked well. The only draw back was we all experienced some serious sinus congestion. We are sensitive to mold and we noticed some dark spots in the bedroom that could've been mold damage.

Location was good. It seemed there was more to do before departure than I have normally experienced. One of the neighbors was a little louder at night than expected, but I was large enough to host my family, and was a decent stay.

Excellent Location, Responsive Management

We stayed for a short girls weekend in SB. The location is excellent, a block away from the water, about a 30 minute walk to the funk zone and other shops/food. Quiet neighborhood. Responsive management. House is old though you could tell they have made fixes based off previous reviews. Nice gas fireplace. Would have benefited from knowing there were space heaters the first night. Overall, for the price was a fair stay.

Nice location, but needs work.

The house is well located for walks along the great bay-front park. The neighborhood is also fairly quiet, though there is a local jazz/blues band that appears to practice for a few hours on Wednesday night in close proximity. The home is in need of some maintenance, though. Repairs in the kitchen, garden, and master bath.

Great Stay with Teenagers

I treated my teen cousins to a girls trip to Santa Barbara. This house was perfect. It was close to the beach and shops and the neighborhood was so nice and quiet. The only thing is it was a hot weekend so you may want to bring a portable fan for the kitchen and living room. There is no AC. There was funky smell coming from the garage and it permeated the house, so we just opened the windows to keep the breeze in the house. The patio is gorgeous.
