Pretty Bungalow
This little gem is tucked away in the middle of a working avocado orchard. The view of the rolling hills and Pacific Ocean is impeccable. We spent each night on the deck watching the sunset. Highly recommend and will return.

A retreat on a ranch in the hills
This is an escape on a small ranch in the hills overlooking the ocean.
Our hostess, Anna, was kind and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of.
There's a coral behind the house with beautiful horses. The house is surrounded by avocado trees and there's a pomegranate tree at the entrance to the property.
It's about a 2.5 mile walk to the nearest beach. The beach is so beautiful and great for walking.
We enjoyed our stay.

Avocado Outpost
We really enjoyed staying at this hide-away and we'll be booking it in the future. It's a really cozy garden guest house with a great wrap-around overlooking an avocado grove and the Pacific in the distance. Quiet and secluded, but only a few minutes from Goleta and only a few more minutes from Santa Barbara. Bonus: nice beds and bedding and even fresh cut flowers upon arrival. Also, very good communication with the owner before and during our stay.

Our little family just returned from
Anna’s magical haven. Everything about it was perfect. Surrounded by 1,000 avocado trees in bloom, nestled into the private hilltop with views of the ocean, greeted warmly by our hostess - we couldn’t have asked for more. Looking forward to returning!

Best porch for Morning Coffee
Loved this property. Anna was fantastic and went above and beyond. I was sold on this property because of the porch. Morning coffee and humming birds. It's beautiful views of the ocean and surrounding area. Place was clean and comfortable. Just perfect. Hope to visit Anna again sometime !

Tranquil and Beautiful
Tranquil and remote, the Tack Room is a wonderful place to get away, relax and recharge. We loved the rustic-chic decor,
comfortable beds, gourmet kitchen, and large deck facing the ocean. Flower bouquets, freshly picked from the garden, added to the charm of the hillside cottage. We loved sitting on the deck, listening to the birds and the wind in the trees, while enjoying the expansive views. And we loved meeting our gracious host, Anna, who was sweet and helpful throughout the stay, and fascinating to talk to. Truly a memorable experience!
