Perks for the Parents

This comfortable, well-stocked and peaceful home has an outdoor spa with Hendry’s Beach and downtown Santa Barbara just a hop, skip and jump away. It sleeps up to 6. This recently remodelled family home makes a family stay easy with its well-stocked pantry and easy layout. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet, bathroom and sliding doors that open to the gem of a backyard. With an outdoor shower, al fresco dining table and chairs, hot tub, BBQ, lounge furniture around the fire pit and open green space, it’ll be where you’ll spend most of your time.

Why Kids Love it

Kids will love the playground behind the house that’s a short stroll away. The house has children’s books and toys so you can pack light and there’s a wonderful treehouse in the backyard with an open, grassy area that’s perfect for outdoor games. As the sun goes down, kids can roast marshmallows over the firepit or snuggle up in the one of the cozy double / full beds. Out and about, Santa Barbara Zoo has lions, giraffes, elephants and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art has family friendly activities. Or you’re a 10-minute drive from Kids World, which has picnic areas, slides and fun things for kids aged 2 to 12.

Things to Know

Note there is no bathtub in the house. Safety notes: The tree house and hot tub are not suitable for toddlers or very young children. This residence would better suit children aged 4 and up. The kids' rooms both have black out curtains. There is parking on the premises. Your stay includes: high-speed WiFi and a dedicated workspace, HDTV with Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Disney+, HBO Max, Hulu & Netflix, a washer / dryer, air conditioning and heating. The hot tub is available all year round.

About the Location

This residence is in the Hidden Valley neighborhood of Santa Barbara, California, and a 5-minute drive from Hendry’s Beach. Alternatively, you can reach the beach via a new walk / cycle path. The area is a quiet, tranquil and very walkable neighborhood in the valley surrounded by hills and is ideal for those who value seclusion. Downtown Santa Barbara is a 10-minute drive where you can discover the beautiful Spanish-style architecture, street performers, restaurants and outdoor cafes on State Street. Fly into Santa Barbara Airport (SBA), just 10 minutes away by taxi or hire car.

Accommodation Details

This residence has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on 1 floor. There is an open living room and dining area connected by a dual-sided fireplace. The well-equipped kitchen (coffee maker, Viking stainless steel gas cooker, microwave, cooking basics) has all the appliances you need with a breakfast bar and a dining table seating 6 comfortably. The primary bedroom has a queensize bed and sliding doors that open the backyard and spa. The other 2 bedrooms both have full / double beds. The backyard features a hot tub, a wooden deck with a firepit, an outdoor shower and a tree house.

Style Notes

Californian contemporary chic. This light, bright and beautifully minimalist home has all modern amenities mixed with an earthy, homely feel. Natural wood textures and an exposed brick fireplace are contrasted with colorful textiles and art pieces collected on trips around the world. We love the outdoor shower that’s perfect for cooling down after a trip to the beach, the tranquil Scandi interior design, and the multiple dining and lounging options with beautiful views of trees for relaxing in the peaceful backyard.

We are a family of 4 who loves to travel, meet different cultures, be outdoors, dive, hike, go to the beach (Paul is a surfer so locations with waves are always a plus!). In our previous travels, we've been to Vietnam, Thailand, Maldives, New York, London, Costa Rica, Bali, Mexico and all over Brazil which is an yearly destination to visit Flavia's family in Rio.

Santa Barbara, California

Wine country, palm-fringed beaches and family fun

On the central Californian coast, Santa Barbara brings together wine country, sandy beaches and family attractions to create a fantastic family vacation destination. From the palm-fringed beaches to the shark-touching tank at the Museum of Natural History Sea Center, the beach cafés and lush parks, not to mention the small but perfectly formed zoo, Santa Barbara caters for families exceptionally well. Active kids will love sea kayaking, hiking trails in state parks and bike rides along Cabrillo Boulevard. It’s what beach cruisers were made for.
