Coyote Hills Ranch & Vineyard with pool & spa!

10/10 Excellent
"This was easily one of the top one or two homes our family has ever stayed in—and we’ve stayed in a lot of vacation homes over the years. Our whole family loves to rate the places we stay, and everyone agreed this one was truly special.The Santa Barbara area is absolutely beautiful, but what really set this trip apart was that the house itself became part of the vacation. We actually made a point of scheduling days when we didn’t go anywhere because we just wanted to stay at the house, relax, and enjoy it. More than once we found ourselves saying, “Why go anywhere? This is where we want to hang out today.”The home made it incredibly easy to slow down, spend time together, and really enjoy being in Santa Barbara. It’s a beautiful house in an amazing area, and it added so much to an already wonderful family vacation.We would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it without hesitation. A truly memorable place and one of our family’s all-time favorites."

Peaceful spacious Spanish style Casita in Wine Country

Peaceful spacious Spanish style Casita in Wine Country

10/10 Excellent
"The location was a nice 12 min drive to Solvang and a 5 min drive to the Chumash casino. Scenery was excellent, quiet and very peaceful. The casita was large and spacious. The kitchen was fully equipped. The tv had plenty of streaming services. Just a heads up, look out for spiders. We used the queen sofa bed which is located in the living room and the windows there don’t have curtains since it’s on private land."

Bungalow #4 by Polo House and Bungalows

10/10 Excellent
"I knew my stay at the Polo house cottages would be amazing based on the photos and where it is in town, but my actual experience exceeded my expectations by a lot. Every little detail was noticeable from check-in to getting into my room with a lovely handwritten card and a bottle of wine and a couple of chocolates. I made the mistake of not enjoying the complementary breakfast until the last day. It was served in courses with choice of entree and the food was delicious. I will definitely be coming back to Polo House in the very near future."
