Experience West Beach living, just steps away from Santa Barbara Harbor

Welcome to our beautiful Villa, the very essence of Andalusian Spain and Santa Barbara. Imagine stepping into the light filled great room, with its polished Spanish tile floors and white washed stone surfaces. Banks of windows in each room overlook the private courtyard, lawn and rose garden. With the windows open (or standing out on one of your 4 decks) you can hear the wonderful bubbling of the grand fountain, day and night.

This luxurious villa has over 2,000 sq ft of living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths with a Queen sized bed in both the Master Suite and the second bedroom, with over-sized bunk bed in the third bedroom. The master bath has a large walk-in shower and an extra deep Jacuzzi tub. There are four levels in the Villa. All bedrooms are on a second level of the house while kitchen and living room are on a third one. All floors are accessible by elevator except roof deck.

There are three fireplaces, flat screen television, surround sound and internet access. All linens, towels, furniture and artwork are of the highest quality. Villa Malaga is located well off-street and is surrounded by lush landscaping and greenery that obscure other buildings, providing a special sense of privacy and security.

The roof deck, with sweeping views of the American Riviera and glistening Pacific Ocean, provides that extra outdoor living space for fresh-air dining or just relaxing and enjoying the sun and sea breezes. There is an outdoor fireplace on this deck inlaid with a hand painted Spanish mural, a separate fountain and 360 degree views of all that Santa Barbara has to offer.
Villa is located in Cinque Terre, a stunning building just two blocks from the beach and four blocks from Stearn’s Wharf in the heart of the Water Front District. It is completely gated and has a private garage with a dumb waiter that will whisk your provisions to both the sleeping and living levels.

The gourmet kitchen is fully stocked, featuring custom cabinets, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, 6-burner commercial grade Viking range and an over-sized GE convection/microwave.

The property is beautiful- the layout is very interesting and the view from the roof is nice. I think the number of steps were missed - didn’t realize it and the number of exits was also a challenge when our 4 year old visited.

Relaxing beautiful resort-like home - perfect location!

We could walk everywhere - the beach, the pier, State Street and more. With a family of 7, we chose to eat our dinner meals at home - and everything was available in the kitchen. It was so relaxing and enjoyable to share time with our family who lives in Australia and California. Thank you!

Such nice accommodation – we felt pampered

Spacious, very clean, and well organized condo with beautiful mountain views from the living room and the rooftop terrace. It was perfect for our family of five—plenty of room and privacy for everyone.The kitchen was well-equipped, and we loved making breakfast each morning and enjoying it on the upper terrace—definitely our favorite part of the home! Being here in April, the temperature was just right.The location was ideal. We kept our car in the garage and easily walked to nearby restaurants, the beach, and the Marina for boat tours - all very close to the house, and biked to downtown and Montecito.We were very happy with our stay in this upscale condo. The only suggestion we have for the owners is to consider upgrading the primary suite bed from a queen to a king—it would make a great stay even better.

Choose Villa Malaga! It’s lovely.

Our family of four stayed for 5 nights in December for an "early Christmas" gathering with lots of cousins staying nearby. We love the location near beaches, the harbour and Sterns Wharf.This is a very comfortable home with several gathering spaces. We especially enjoyed the roof-top terrace with large outdoor dining table, comfy outdoor sofa and fireplace. Also offers a well-appointed kitchen and spacious living room with lots of seating and fireplace.We appreciated the quality bedding and so many terraces for wonderful cross-breezes during the day.Thank you for your hospitality, Tatiana.It was a "five star" stay for us.We hope to return.
