Bright quiet tropical oasis
I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful serene bright tropical stay. The home was very comfortable and offered everything needed for relaxing, cooking, entertaining family that live nearby. Outdoor back yard was ideal for yoga and eating and relaxing in the chaise. Thank you so very much! And the property managers were great with communication!

Well maintained and comfortable 3 bedroom, very close to the ocean and quite close to beach and downtown / state street. Cute backyard, could use an upgrade in cups and a reduction in rules/requirements. Overall, great experience.

Beautiful Cottage
I stayed here with five of my girlfriends from college, we are now all in our mid 30s and were having a reunion trip to Santa Barbara. The house is beautiful with an amazing backyard and deck where we were able to relax and catch up. Everything was very clean, comfortable, and the television was also easy to operate when we wanted to watch a movie. The only issue with this house is that it has a single bathroom. We did not mind, as we are all very comfortable with each other, but bear that in mind, if you are booking with lots of people. The neighborhood is quiet and residential and well-kept up and safe. We strolled across to Shoreline Park and walked along the coast. We were very close to downtown, Funkzone, and Stearns Wharf. Highly recommend!

Wonderful stay
We LOVED this property— amazing location, great back deck, great indoor/outdoor living. House was well - equipped with many things, including a pack n play and some beach toys. One portable AC unit was available to us, which was nice. Location is unbeatable — this is amazing if you love to walk, run, or if you have kids staying with. Shoreline park is only a 2 min walk from the house, and Ledbetter beach is less than a mile. A mile to the grocery store, coffee, and some restaurants. We had a few questions for the property manager, which were responded to and addressed right away. This is a property we will definitely consider for our future trips to SB. I highly recommend it!! Note- for longer stays (we were there 2 weeks), the kitchen has minimal spices and condiments, and there is only one dishrag for kitchen and/ or cleaning that we could find.

Had a fantastic 3-day stay. The property was super clean and exactly like the photos. Our favorite part was the beautiful oceanside walking path right across the street that you can take all the way into downtown Santa Barbara. Would definitely stay again.

The perfect family retreat!
We had a wonderful stay at Little Palm Cottage. Our family of four felt very comfortable...it really was a home away from home, and situated a block from the ocean! The finishes and thoughtful details from the owners of this recently renovated house really made our vacation extra special. Highly recommend Little Palm Cottage.
