We had a fantastic time during our vacation/brother's wedding celebration in Santa Barbara, and much of it had to do with the great house we rented from Paradise Retreat. The "historic downtown retreat" was perfect for our group of brothers and sisters. The house was very pretty and accomodating to all of our needs. The beds were comfortable, the upstairs tv room was spacious for afternoon relaxing, and our favorite part, the deck off of the upstairs rooms was peaceful and perfect for evening drinks. We truly enjoyed our stay there and would recommend it to others who are looking for a comfortable place close to downtown, the beaches and the zoo. Thanks again!

We came from Sacramento, Encinitas and Escondido for Spring Break! This house is wonderful! The kids loved "Kid's World" at Alameda Park just 3 1/2 blocks away. They loved watching movies on the big screen TV in the media room. All of us had fun on the upstairs outdoor patio. We enjoyed many fun family meals and the fireplace on those chilly mornings. We hope to come back on another family trip in the future.

Three days of mother-daughter wine tasting. We enjoyed the house and location. We have a rental...above Hilo and it's fun to rent a house in a fun city.

Great house. Especially loved the beds. Everything was comfortable and working well. The park will be on our agenda for our next visit to this house. Thank you for opening your home to us.

Thank you for providing such a comfortable, beautifully decorated vacation spot - enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Loved evenings out on the upper deck and late nights in the media room. The location was ideal - we especially enjoyed the park just a couple of blocks over on Garden Street (the kids were there several times a day!).

We will definitely think of this spot for our next trip to Santa Barbara

Wow! We came to Santa Barbara for our wedding on 8/16/08. My new husband and I absolutlely love the home . We've already stolen several ideas to use on our new house. (Should you ever decide to sell, please call us first!) The weekend was full of so much love from family and friends. This home away from home was the perfect place to create beautiful memories. Thank you for helping us begin our new lives together.

P.S. Your staff here is amazing as well! Peace and Blessings!

All I can say is "WE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME!" The house and area is absolutely gorgeous! So much to do, eat, shop and oggle at the natural beauty in this area. Watching the Olympics on the gigantuan TV was like being there. Thanks for a fabulous 4 days

What a wonderful stay. We came to Santa Barbara for our son's graduation. Our families rented both houses and it worked out perfectly. Our little kids loved the house (so much better than a hotel room). The house is so well done and decorated so nicely. Having both houses to do a little graduation get together was great. This is a trip our family will definitely remember. I would love to come back to do the same thing.

Thank you for the great experience!

What a wonderful property!! If you have a large family or just need a great getaway, this property is the one. Coming down for graduation with many family members, we rented this property and other family members rented the cottage in front. It worked out wonderfully. The house has been newly remodeled and is great. The kitchen is well stocked with nice quality appliances, dishes, glassses etc. The bedding is luxurious and what comfy beds!! It is just a few minute drive to the pier and the beach and couple of minutes to downtown. The kids enjoyed it as it was much better then being couped up in a hotel room. All of the rooms are spacious and lots of closet space. This is definitely a place I would love to return to. Thank you!!

In a time in which we were very concerned about my health it was nice to know we at least had a place to call home even if it was for a short while.

We have enjoyed our stay here in this beautful home and so did our children.

The balcony upstairs was fantastic and we enjoyed many nights stargazing.

We wish you well and we truly appreciate having been able to stay here.
