Sweet One downtown Ojai
We had a wonderful stay at Tonya’s place! The location was perfect—quiet, peaceful, and within easy walking distance to everything in town. We especially loved the patio, which was a great spot to relax after exploring Ojai. Would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful comfortable guesthouse
Our family of 5 enjoyed Christmas at Dana's beautiful apartment in Santa Barbara. The neighborhood is perfect location for quiet and a cozy comfortable location. The apartment has great views - much light from the many windows - kitchen well stocked - beds are comfy and we really felt at home staying there. The unit is roomy and we liked having parking on the premisis. Full laundry room was a huge benefit. I recommend this for all ages and occasions. Dana was responsive to our only two requests: help with the Apple TV.

Casa al Mare Private Cottage
Jamie’s cottage was so inviting and comfortable. It was perfect in every way. And Jamie and Billy couldn’t have been nicer to us. Great folks; great place. Our new go-to place in Ventura!

Your Own Private Refuge on 10 Acres in Santa Ynez
This was our second time staying at the casita, and Jeanne is a wonderful host! It truly felt like coming home. She had coffee, a delicious pound cake and scones all waiting for us as a treat during our stay. We had beautiful weather and were able to enjoy having breakfast and lunch on the patio, with joyful birdsong all around us. This place is a gem - definitely recommend staying there if your travels take you to the Santa Ynez Valley!

Modern Studio with Hot Tub by beach
What a great Airbnb in the heart of Ventura. Everything in the home reflected perfection and quality. We loved it. Great cafes walking distance and really peaceful and lovely neighborhood. Highly recommend.

Private Studio with Ocean Views
Suzy’s place was as advertised! Her private studio was serene and the views were lovely. My wife and I greatly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely come back again and stay here. We particularly loved listening to all the birds sing their songs and the private patio. Suzy was communicative, helpful and check-in and check-out were a breeze. Make sure to stop by godmothers while in Summerland!

Creekside cottage studio near Miramar beach
What an outstanding cottage! The space is so comfortable and thoughtfully furnished and the hosts couldn't have been more gracious. We enjoyed the outdoor spaces reserved for the unit - an upper deck as well as the garden patio. We hope to return on our next visit.

Riviera View Cottage - fast WiFi shelter in place
We had a great time at Ginger's place. It has a beautiful view, nice outdoor spaces, and is very comfortable inside. The air conditioning was great as it was in the 80s and even above 90 for part of our stay. Ginger took care of the few small problems we had right away. The location was great, 5 minutes to State St. and 15 minutes to great beaches where we could take our dogs. Prices in Santa Barbara have gone way up in recent years, but it was worth it.

Adorable Cabana with hot tub
Carola was a great host, very helpful and informative. It was very cozy and clean. Quiet and peaceful with beautiful night sky and birds chirping in the morning

Zoe’s Cottage Beautiful Near Beach & Downtown
Hector was kind, accommodating and helpful during our stay. We found that he had left little things for us - water bottles, coffee - that made us feel right at home. It was quiet and near the downtown area, which made it a great area for those who love walking.

Bungalow Encanto ( Mesa)- walk to the Beach.....
Susan was a great host, and Bungalow Encanto was a perfect place to stay. The amenities inside were so thoughtful, we really appreciated it. The surrounding area couldn't be better, with the beach a short walk away and distance to restaurants so close too. Neighborhood was friendly and welcoming. Very charming experiencing, and and grateful for the opportunity to stay here.

Cottontail Cottage - A Santa Ynez Retreat
We had the best stay at Skylar’s cottage. The place was clean and cozy! We will definitely be back to stay again.

Hope Heights Casita
Great house, it had everything we could want, we had a great sleep, and it was wonderful to step outside in the morning in the little courtyard with a bit of fog just burning off! Met our needs and wants perfectly.

Beach Cottage 7 min walk to the Sea & UCSB!
Very nice and family friendly. It was a great stay and the location is peaceful. Neighborhood is friendly. Very bike friendly aswell .

2 Bathrooms in Paradise!
The place is in the hills above Santa Barbara. It is a few minutes' drive from downtown (walking would be an hour). Both the hosts and the place are very friendly and hospitable.

Shoreline Beach Studio
We completely enjoyed our time staying here. Nice quiet private entrance made it feel like a secluded get away. The cleanliness was great and the Seattle’s Best coffee that was left for us was delicious. A nice bottle of wine was also there to enjoy. The beach was close enough to walk to and the sunsets were beautiful. We would definitely stay here again!

THE VENTURA COTTAGE - Charming Studio in Midtown
This space was great for us for our stay. Beautiful outdoor area, and well appointed kitchen and bathroom. Had everything you would need for your stay, and a very convenient location with plenty of parking on the street.

Cozy 1 bedroom guest house private entrance.
My second stay here. Consistently great, clean, and no hassle.

Luxury Cottage w/ Ocean/Island View, Jacuzzi & A/C
If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. The view alone is amazing! Only 12 minutes from all the touristy locations, with a peaceful, quiet, calming location. The owner paid attention to all the small details (like lighting, extra towels, decor, etc). The place was immaculately clean and well decorated. This was the first air bnb that I didn’t want to leave on check out morning. The host was responsive, kind and helpful. We loved the hot tub, grill, and fire pit-perfect for smores! We will come back here anytime we are in the area :)

Sugar-shack
Beautiful, private cottage setting in Summerland. 15 minutes away from Santa Barbara, where we attended a wedding. The place is much bigger than it looks in the pictures. Super quiet at night, private, and we had breakfast on the cozy front porch!

Peaceful Montecito Cottage on Gated Property
Ein unvergesslicher Aufenthalt im Highdeaway! Wir hatten das große Glück, im wunderschönen Highdeaway von Amy und Steve zu übernachten, und es war einfach ein Traum! Schon bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir mit selbst gebackenen Keksen herzlich begrüßt – eine so liebevolle Geste, die uns sofort ein Lächeln ins Gesicht gezaubert hat. Das Haus selbst ist ein kleines Paradies: die gemütliche Terrasse mit den bequemen Sitzmöglichkeiten lädt zum Entspannen ein, umgeben von einer idyllischen Gartenlandschaft mit alten Bäumen und wunderschönen Pflanzen. Alles ist mit so viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet, dass man sich sofort wie zu Hause fühlt. Die Steinwege und die natürliche Atmosphäre haben eine ganz besondere, beruhigende Wirkung – perfekt, um dem Alltag zu entfliehen. Amy und Steve sind die besten Airbnb-Gastgeber, die wir je hatten! Sie waren unglaublich herzlich, aufmerksam und haben dafür gesorgt, dass es uns an nichts fehlt. Wir können es nur herzlichst weiter empfehlen ! Wir kommen wieder

Tony’s Place - King, air conditioned, Private
This lovely Santa Barbara guest house was only enhanced by the beautiful surroundings. The mountains, lush green trees and flowers, ocean views nearby, and great seafood! we loved the privacy and completely furnished guest house with an excellently stocked kitchen! Our only regret was that couldn't stay longer! I highly recommend Tony's place to anyone wanting to experience Santa Barbara at it's beautiful best! Tony was a gracious host and perfectly explained and provided everything we needed to enjoy our brief stay.

“Ojai Moments"
A great play to stay if you are visiting Ojai. Peaceful and serene, and 10 minute drive to everything. We would def recommend this place for couples and families. Travis and his wife are welcoming and make you feel right at home.

Charming cottage in wine country
Where can I start?! So many things about this home were just lovely! Beautifully decorated, smelled great, great shower pressure, super easy access to Solvang, Santa Ynez, and Los Olivos… Our stay was truly effortless and relaxing, and we were so grateful to be able to spend the weekend here.
