Great views from the patio onto the ocean." - "Clean and comfortable ! located near ocean and restaurants" - "Highly recommended. Will be back." - "The property is beautiful and peaceful. We loved it!" - "I had a great experience. It was nice and quiet. With the exception of it being a condo where you have people above you. You hear the walking and various noises above you. I stayed in the SAND unit. The one thing I was uncomfortable with are the window coverings. If someone is outside the unit, it is very easy for someone to look in on you, because the sides are not flush against the windows. A bit uncomfortable at night when you really cant see out but someone can see in. Other than that, the property was well maintained and comfortable."

We would definitely return." - "We spent a few days at this little gem and had a wonderful time. The view from the deck, the fact that you can walk into town to get a drink or a bite, all went a long way for us. The beach is a VERY short drive away. Pet friendly area. We had no idea Summerland was such a neat, little town. Sarah was gracious and treated us like family."

- "Our family enjoyed our stayed at the Hummingbird. The set up was perfect. It gave my husband and I privacy from the kids when we needed it. But it also provided us with areas to gather and enjoy each other. Each living space was well stocked with every day needs. The location to the town and beach area were just right. The neighborhood was very quiet and the views of the ocean spectacular. The only issue we had was the garbage was overflowing when we got there and some cans were never emptied. Other than that I would highly recommend this rental. It’s simple decoration and easy feel helped to make for a relaxing week. Sue Ronan 8/1-8/7"

- "What a great location. Lovely neighborhood to walk the doggies, two great parks with playgrounds within walking distance, and beautiful ocean and mountain views. Nice places to visit close by, like “ A Sacred Space” and “Godmothers”, and good eats all around." - "The Hidden Hideaway is in a quiet and adorable residential neighborhood. Shops, restaurants, and the beach are all a short walk away. Pros- The entire booking and check-in process, the host's excellent communication, the property itself, the neighborhood, a very comfortable bed and seating area, and reliable and accessible wireless. Other reviewers have said that they could hear the upstairs neighbors, but during our stay, there were people staying above us, and we didn't hear a peep or a footstep. The only small surprise is that the property doesn't have an oven or toaster oven. That's probably in the description and I didn't notice. It does have a toaster and a microwave, and that was fine for us. I highly recommend staying here, and hope to return! Thank you!"

In order to keep water in the tub they had a weird set of shower curtains set up which I didn’t like. It wasn’t possible to take a bath? Anyway a fun area to explore and a cute place to stay!" - "This property is as listed and then some!! It is well stocked, easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Short drive to Montecito -use the frontage road, no need for the 101. If you have a dog with you, use the self-serve dog wash at the park and come home with clean doggie!!

This is an historic beach cottage duplex for a perfect vacation near the beach in a safe. Shopping and relaxing on Lillie Avenue is your perfect activity followed by relaxing in your private yard. Private key pad gate goes out for your own entrance. Our bottom floor unit is completely on a level itself with its own entrance.

- "My partner and I enjoyed our stay. The host, Leslie, is a superb communicator and very helpful i.e. restaurants and locations to visit. The cottage is conveniently located near walkable shops, restaurants and the beach. It is clean and the bed is comfortable. The patio garden is peaceful and private. We enjoyed our stay, and we will definitely return." - "The garden was spacious, the apartment clean and bright. But too small for two elders. The highway traffic and Amtrak train noises were cumbersome, otherwise it's a great place, for one."
