Family-friendly vacation rentals in Santa Barbara County

Host was very responsive and helpful. The price was great. location is very peaceful and a short drive or walk away from great tourist spots (i.e. Downtown, dunes, etc). Airbnb was very clean and organized, listed instructions and perks were easy to find and simple to follow.

What a beautiful property! The backyard was like a sanctuary. We were walking distance to a beautiful beach and the neighborhood was quiet.

Our families favorite getaway! Love being able to hike without getting in the car. Such a peaceful spot. Can’t recommend highly enough.

We had an amazing time, such a beautiful and spacious home. Thank you for hosting my family and I :)

Catie's place was really clean and had everything you needed to have a good stay. So many interesting items to look at, and I feel like I need another stay to see everything. Lots to do on the outside property and plenty of games on the inside. The kitchen was WELL stocked and the beds comfortable. The common rooms are big with lots of places to sit. Close to great hiking areas and town. Book it you will love it!

I cannot say enough great things about both the home and the information and responsiveness that Todd & Jodi provided during our stay. We were fortunate to find their place available at the last minute and could not have been more pleased with the experience. Home was beautiful and on a great piece of land, peaceful, quiet and convenient. We felt right at home, almost better than right at home, which was the whole purpose of our visit. Beds, bathrooms, kitchen and all the accessories of the home were top notch. All the recommendations and help in finding last minute winery visits and dinner reservations were incredibly helpful as well. We will be back.

We had a lovely stay amidst a beautiful area surrounded by an avocado farm and tangerine farm. The home was lovely with many areas to enjoy both inside and outside the home. The grounds were beautiful with fresh herbs and beautiful flowers & landscaping. The kitchen was more than fully stocked with all kinds of cooking and serving abilities. The host was very responsive to all our needs and lovely. We would highly recommend this beautiful location for a peaceful stay amidst nature.

We had a fantastic time at Tim's place! The location is close to town, but it feels private and secluded. We loved being surrounded by nature, especially with Tim's thoughtful landscaping. The outdoor shower and bathroom were fun additions that only added to our experience. Having a fenced-in space for our dog was incredible, and the hot tub was the cherry on top. We'll be staying here every time we come to Carp from here on out!

Nan is an excellent host. Our stay was tranquil with gorgeous surroundings. Loved waking up to petting her horses. We will definitely book another stay the next time we visit!

I loved my stay here! The home is beautiful and very well-kept. You can tell Dawn put a lot of effort into making this place feel like home. She was helpful and very responsive. Great host, great home :)

We really enjoyed the pretty garden setting and relaxed and read outdoors. Will was very accommodating and responded quickly when I had a question. We ate at his restaurant that was on the premises and it was excellent, both food and service!

What an amazing little beach home. We loved Ian's home. It was stocked with everything we could need, the home was clean and cozy and had an ocean view from upstairs. The neighborhood is amazing and there are several charming restaurants just a block away from the house. Highly recommend.

My Husband and I absolutely loved the house it was exactly what we wanted!! We took our puppy star and there was so many doggy supplies you can use and it’s completely gated which was perfect for her🐶 The Horses are beautiful and breathtaking! They come right up to the gate to greet you(: definitely worth it and we will definitely be back with our son 😇

Jeanne’s cottage was an excellent place for our little group of 3 and 2 dogs, a quick drive to SY and perfectly located for road biking. There is so much wonderful space to wander on the grounds and perfect lawn for dogs to romp around. The cottage is thoughtfully furnished and the kitchen is well stocked. Jeanne and her husband were so nice and made us feel right at home. Without question one of the most dog friendly Airbnb I’ve ever stayed!

Such a cute find with an ocean view and 0.6 mile walk to the beach! The place is very cute inside and out with numerous outdoor seating options and gorgeous landscaping. We loved walking on the neighborhood trail, down to the beach, and to the cute downtown summerland. Only a ten minute drive to downtown Santa Barbara. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed a quiet weekend stay. The 3 bedroom home was comfortable for 5 adults with nice beds and spacious sitting areas. There were plenty of towels and a lovely yard. The home has many windows and lots of natural light, so if you are bothered by sunlight in the morning, bring eyeshades to help with sleeping late. Overall, our stay was wonderful, and the owner was available to answer any of our questions.

Lots of room for extra friends/family. Great stove top/easy cleaning up. Clean pool, working laundry room. Amazing outside view! Checks off as a really great spot to stay for a few days. Outside amenities is okay could be better. But overall, the stay was pleasant.

Jolie and the cabin were amazing! Great with communication and desired to make sure we had everything we needed, even willing to go above and beyond most other places. My boyfriend and I had a great time!

Had a absolute wonderful stay! Stayed with my partner and 6 month old. It was warm out but we stayed nice and cool in the home and the walk down to the village was great! Our little one also swam in the pool for the first time! The home and surrounding areas were beautiful and we definitely soaked in the beauty of nature in comfort. Extremely grateful for the stay and looking forward to next time!

I got sick on the way to LA and Stayed with Jennifer almost for week - her hospitality was more than i could ask for. When she went to the town, she asked if i need any groceries or wanna order food - she picked up lunch for me - will recommend her to any one who wants to have cabin experience and piece of mind:)

Courtney‘s cabin was incredible. It was like going into a time machine and transporting yourself to a simpler time such a breath of fresh air from modern society with all the future gadgets and gizmos It was a meditative place and was amazing on every level. Courtney‘s communication was some of the best I’ve ever had on Airbnb and I look forward to going back to Pine Mountain soon.

This is such a special place. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! It’s a perfect central location - close to SLO, Paso Robles, Los Olivos, etc. We loved hearing the chickens in the morning, walking through the garden and enjoying the hot tub/pool amenities. If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway, this is the place for you!!

We were in town for a wedding for the weekend and this spot was perfect for us. We are a family of 5, we had a ton of space to relax in. The kitchen was stocked with coffee and water in the refrigerator which is really nice. There was also a delicious party to enjoy with our coffee the next morning. The property was absolutely beautiful as well. Highly recommend.

Julie’s place is amazing!!! Better than expected. College friend reunion. We really enjoyed the pool and the yoga studio and outdoor area. Julie is a delight!
