Chef and property manager

Having a chef for breakfast and dinner was the BEST! She did the grocery shopping, cooking, serving and clean up. She was FANTASTIC!!! Property Manager was GREAT! Checked on us, got us on the golf course, had our beer iced Cold when we arrived, took our food/drinks to the dock for our boat ride and much more. He was FABULOUS!!!

Perfect Property for a Family Getaway PERSONAL CHEF INCLUDED

We just spent the most wonderful long weekend at Sea Ranch. The property is massive and beautiful. Awesome deep pool with huge super shallow section for my 3-year-old and 5-year-old to play in. Great hot tub. So many great outdoor and indoor areas to gather, drink and chat around a fire. Our family of four went with my parents, mother-in-law as well as my sister, her husband and baby and we all felt like we had more than enough room. There is also a staff of people who are so kind and helpful with anything you might need - Blake gave us a tour and showed us how to work everything and even came by just to turn on the tiki torches when it was getting dark. But my favorite part was Katie, the personal chef, who cooked two meals a day for our entire crew and cleaned up after us. This was offered for free with the home -- something I have not experienced at any other house I've rented. Her food was insanely good -- she even made signature cocktails and special food for my picky little kids. And the fact that she CLEANED the whole kitchen after every meal, washing baby bottles and emptying the dishwasher made this trip relaxing for everyone, even mom and dad. Would definitely come back!

Amazing Place

We have an annual Friends get together in SB, this house is amazing, we wished we booked it for longer. Our group is 3 families (kids from 17 to 5). So much space, came complete with all beach and pool equipment. The Chef was nothing short of amazing! Will be booking this house again! Short walk to beach, short walk to Downtown Montecito. Perfect!

Multi generational family reunion

We had the most AMAZING time at this home. It was perfect for our multi generational family reunion to celebrate my Dad’s 81st birthday. Barlow was so friendly and always responded so promptly. The property itself is amazing and luxurious and was perfect for our gathering. We had family ranging in age from 11-81 and it was perfect for everyone. The property is a short walk to the beach, an even shorter walk to downtown Montecito and had all of the amenities and space a family reunion needs. We will definitely be back!

It's rare that a property outshines its preview photos, but none of us anticipated the beauty, fun, and comforts of Sea Ranch! We hope to be back next year.
